What do you get when you mix insane creativity, a gorgeous oil slick look and the cutest four-year-old you’ve ever seen? This amazing creation by Crystal Wagner @crystalcolors_ from Razor’s Edge in Norton, Va.! Her daughter, Leah, wanted something fun, and Crystal totally delivered. She says Leah calls this look “June Bug.” “My daughter loves it, and she receives compliments on it every day!” Crystal says.

 

Coloring kids’ hair has been all over social media lately, so we asked Crystal to weigh in with her thoughts. “I personally color kids’ hair because, where I’m from, if I refuse the parents will do it themselves,” she says. “I would much rather ensure the integrity of a child’s hair by doing it myself rather than the parents getting box dye. Also, it’s fun and harmless. We should let kids have fun with their hair!”
