While I work at home and can get away with a lot more with my hair in terms of adding fun colors, I’m also pretty low-maintenance.
Last year, I tried purple highlights and also *tried* to do a rose gold bayalage. Two very expensive salon visits went into trying to achieve the rose gold color and it barely lasted two weeks before my hair needed a touch-up. Not for me.
I still want to have fun with my hair and add unexpected pops of color when I can, but I also am not willing to invest hundreds of dollars or commit to something that’s going to look horrible if I can’t make it to the salon every 4-6 weeks.
So when Schwarzkopf asked if I would try their K-BOND PLEX™ to add some color to my hair, I did some research before committing.
K-BOND PLEX™ is salon inspired anti-breakage technology that repairs the inner hair structure for strong and healthy looking hair with up to 80% less breakage compared to untreated hair. So my hair would be stronger after using K-BOND PLEX™ than it was without any dye in it!
They also developed a pre-treatment for even color results and promises 100% gray coverage (I only have a few, but I don’t want to see them).
I couldn’t find any pictures online of people who had used the product (it’s pretty new) so I texted my friend who is a hair dresser at a salon that I can’t afford and she assured me that my hair was in good hands with Schwarzkopf.
Since I wasn’t looking for anything high maintenance, I decided to do a Peek-A-Boo Color with their Rich Caviar color. It’s this richly dark purple (almost black) color that I knew would add depth to my natural brown color, while adding a pop of purple when I put my hair up or styled it to show it off.
How to Dye Peek-A-Boo Hair
The only things you need to do a fun peek-a-boo hair color at home is a comb and the contents of your K-BOND PLEX™ hair dye box.
Brush or comb out your dry, clean hair to start.
Use the comb to divide your hair – only leave down the hair that you want to dye.
Follow the directions in the K-BOND PLEX™ box to dye that section of hair.
(If you get hair dye on any part of your skin, rub it off immediately with a baby wipe.)
Wait the allotted time (30 minutes for me) and rinse out hair before applying the keratin conditioner.
Rinse out and dry as normal.
Style hair as desired.
I found that the color is not really noticeable when I leave my hair curly – it really blends in and just adds some depth – but when I straighten it, you can really see the purple!
My daughter was a little jealous of my new hair color, so I dyed an extension with the color and hot glued it inside a hair band for her so she could have a dramatic purple streak to match.
I purchased my K-BOND PLEX™ hair dye at Walmart in the cosmetics/pharmacy area:

nice………….turned out great. love it.
Thank You….. great tutorial.
Good Work thanks for the tut
I dye my hair like this, never knew it had a name. PEEK A BOO.
Wow! I always pay to get my hair dyed at the salon but yours turned out great, I might try it myself next time.
Thank you! I hope you have a great first experience but let me know if you run into any questions.
My hair turn great TY
So glad to hear that! You’re welcome!!!
Will this method work with red hair dye?
I’m not a hairstylist so as long as the guide on the box says it will work on your natural hair color, I don’t see why not!
Ew, why this color? Does not suit you.
Because I liked it at the time and hair grows. So does character and maturity.
Love the color. Might try.
My boyfriend says I shouldn’t do it myself and should go to the salon. But he won’t pay. Advice.
I don’t think you need advice. You know what you want or need to do. A stranger on the internet isn’t going to change your mind.
Do it yourself, find a new boyfriend, pay at a salon. Do what works for you. But be confident in your own decision because neither me nor your boyfriend should be making decisions for you.
Love it! Turned out great!
Thanks!
Hm, this guide makes it look really easy but having a hard time believing you didn’t have extra help behind the scenese….
Nope, just me. My daughter was under 10 when I posted this tutorial so she was no help… it was me, my two hands and a dye brush. And I can barely braid. If I can do it, anyone can!
Happy I checked out your tutorial but still think I’m not brave enough to do this myself. I’ll be taking your pictures to my hairdresser though!
Amazing results, thank you for the helpful step by step guide. My hair looks amazing!!!
