disappointed
a month ago
tried this hair colour four times due to all the good reviews but have been very disappointed. Failed to significantly change my hair colour when in need of getting roots done or even when I use on my whole head. I've tried it so many ways and still does not work with my hair. my normal hair colour is a medium brown so maybe it works better with lighter base shades.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Faded quickly
3 months ago
I dyed my hair December 23rd with this dye and try to only wash my hair once a week so I'm on my 3rd or 4th wash and the colou has faded a lot. I will not be buying this brand again as I'm very disappointed. I have long hair and it takes 3 boxes to dye it so was not a cheap dye job. Would not recommend if you don't want to dye your hair non stop!!
No, I do not recommend this product.

Way too dark
a year ago
I’m so upset, I had grown out and faded red hair and now this has just made it brown. Nothing like the box. I had already chosen a shade lighter to counteract the darkness and it’s STILL BROWN. I’m so upset my hair colour is ruined.

Beautiful colour however, I applied this over bleach blonde and I do not recommend because it takes more to the roots rather than the mid lengths. It washes out really quickly. As in I washed it twice and it was light pink medium red tones. I would imagine this dye is best suited for darker hair to apply for a better result.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Great colouring but horrible conditioner. I normally throw away the conditioner as they have changed the formula in the last year and it feels like you put petroleum kn your hair: sticky, gross and disgusting
No, I do not recommend this product.
