I have good and bad news. The good news is that the L'Oreal Technique Liquid Chalk Intense Hair Makeup last for an average of 2 shampoos according to the "peel back" label. The bad news is that with coarse, porous hair like mine, it took 7 (seven) back to back clarifying shampoos to get the majority of the liquid chalk out. As you can see in the picture, I still have some remnants left. I liked the color so I will probably add it back in.
I wanted to wear the "pink/magenta" color too, but I would want a more short term look. I do not want to work so hard to get that color out of my locs again.
I was excited about learning how many shampoos will the liquid chalk last. The answer for me seems like the liquid chalk can be almost permanent without use of clarifying shampoos to strip it out. I also had to towel rub some. It was quite a bit of work for a quick 5 minutes of application.
Well, I am three days before my 33 months loc-versary. This article serves as a wet length check. I lost a few pieces of relaxed hair from off two of my ends. I am okay with it. I was a little rough with my locs trying to rub that liquid chalk out. It comes with the territory. I will not be able to mend the pieces back on because they are partly straight. I believe all the clarifying shampoo lathers made my relaxed ends weak. I did condition a few times. Once after the third lather and another after the final lather.
