No, it's not. Pastel chalk or soft pastel is easier to blend and draw with because it is softer, hence the name, soft pastel. Soft pastels are made of ground pigments, gum tragacanth, and a filler.

What will happen if you wear chalk pastel hair coloring on your hair in the pool?
the 'hair chalk' is just artist's pastels created to use on paper. They are made from finely ground pure pigment bound with a binder such as gum arabic, when used on paper they smudge easily if a fixative hasnt been used. If you are using these on your hair and go into a pool unless your hair has a lot of fixative on the pastel coloured parts the pigment will just come out in the water. Try using hairspray on the coloured hair before going into a pool as it may help preserve the pigmented chalk on your hair
