Review: Great product. I love the colour. It works on my bleached asian hair which is normally very hard to dye. It has faded more on the areas which have not been bleached enough though so would recommend really bleaching the hell out of your hair first, despite the obvious dangers of scalp burn and brittle hair. I think its worth it to get a good colour!! My bathroom has now been permanently stained purple in every area that the dye touched, even bleach won't shift it off the lino. I would recommend covering your bathroom in plastic sheeting before using this dye, unless, like me you don't really care too much about stains! Also, my scalp was stained purple for a few days but this did of course fade. I also had purple streaks down my face, hands and body when washing it out, so would recommend applying a vaseline barrier around the hairline and using surgical spirit to remove any stains on your face that won't come off. This is a great dye but leaves on hell of a mess behind!! -Sara- |

Review: GORGEOUS color. It started off a really dark purple with a blueish hue that I didn't know if I liked, but with sun exposure it started fading surprisingly nicely. It's essentially like dying your hair twice, it fades from the darkest purple to a bright magenta. 5 weeks later, to top layers are a bright magenta, under layers still a dark purple and I adore it. My only complaint is that it bleeds every time I shampoo. I have a lavender tinted bathtub now, but it's bleeding less and less everyday :) -Sandra- |

Review: I absolutely love the colour of this dye! I had the majority of my hair dyed this colour & I think it is a lovely deep colour which I have found to be very long lasting. I have had lots of compliments on my hair since choosing this shade, which has gradually faded to a lighter purple/pinky tone. My only complaint would be that seeing as it is such a strong dye you have to be careful when dying & first few times you wash your hair as I had to contend with a purple scalp for few days & my partner wasn't that impressed with purple stains on our new bathroom! -Louise- |

Review: This turned out kind of dark on me, but after washing it once or twice, it was lovely. It was definitely blue based, which was fine with me. It lasted pretty long and faded beautifully. It didn't bled a lot or stain everything. Don't get this dye on your wood furniture; that seems to be the only thing that stained from this color. -Ambivalent- |

Review: This is the longest lasting SE hair dye i have used to date, and the most stubborn! lasted for 4 months, with washing every day. I had left it on for 20 min under a dryer and 25 with no heat, which does help (dryer to open up the cuticles, time after so they close up before you rinse). it didn't so much fade as brighten in that time, and on my 8 inch hair i only had to use 1/2 of the bottle. but as i said, it was a stubborn colour! no semi-perm hair colour removr would work, and believe me, i tried everything! i had to resort to bleaching, and patches of pink were left over still.
BUT, if you're looking for a long lasting & restorative colour, this is it, bottom line! -Taylor- |

Review: I used this on dyed dark red hair and it took really well, looks almost black in some lights but in the light it is a beautiful purple colour. The only bad thing about the dye is that I have had it on over a week, washed it quite a few times and still the purple comes off onto everything, clothes, bedsheets, skin - I am too scared to go out in the rain! -Danielle-
NOTE FROM BEEUNIQUE: Most vegetable dyes do tend to bleed until after the first few washes but should be fine after that. |
