ive used this one a few times, but abit on the pricey side for hair dye, so its not a regular for me. but the results were nice, texture of the dye was nice and cream and covered well. they have lovely shades in this range also. just not for my budget.

This is a great semi-permanent hair colour. I have used it countless times with consistently great results. I find it lasts much longer than 28 days. I use a colour closely matched to my own hair colour, but deeper, in my case I use Iced Cocoa or Iced Chocolate, one slightly warmer than the other. I don't use them so much for the colour, though it's great, but for the body and long-lasting shine that it gives. I would buy the conditioner included on its own as it is fantastic. It is very easy to apply, quick to work, and washes out easily, with a nice fragrance.
Tips: To avoid staining around the hairline, apply moisturiser first, something rich, then the dye will wash off more easily.
This is my favourite hair dye product out of all the ones I've tried. I used it several times during my high school years whenever I felt like a change (my hair is naturally auburn, and I mainly used the range of chocolate browns). It is easy to apply and looks fantastic - the colour is glossy and shiny. My only issues are that one year the 'semi-permanent' colour never faded out completely, and I was left with a very dark and obvious regrowth. I also have stopped using dyes completely as of late, as my hair has become quite dry. I am now focussing on nourishing my hair naturally, so for that reason will not be purchasing this product again. But if you want to change your hair colour this is a great DIY option.
I use this product instead of permenent hair colour due to my sensitive scalp. In fact, my favourite shade is Iced Chocolate 415. It covers grey hair very well and the results also last a few weeks.
Tips: Use the conditioner provided
I use this product through out the year - as long as you do as instructed - roots then last 5 on rest your hair will always look great - I go for the brown tones
Tips: Do as instructed - dont put browns through all your hair when renewing or your tips will go darker
The smell of the product is really nice. It's not a fake perfume sort of smell and not a chemical kind of smell too. I've used several different colours in this range and found them to be pretty true to the packet.
Tips: I started pretty much butchering my hair with bleach and lots of swimming, so things like dark browns and blacks faded very quickly no matter what brand I used. I took a risk that paid off, I bought a dark brown and let it process for twice the recommended time (ALWAYS ON A TEST STRAND FIRST) which came out almost black (like I wanted) this way it came out the colour I wanted and more pigment had been deposited so faded to chocolate brown a lot slower.
At first I was a little put off by the price, I normally dye my hair quite dark to black and because you can't really go wrong with a dark colour I am normally happier spending closer to $12-$15. It was a darker brown shade that I used and I didn't really realise the benefits until a few washes later. There was definitely less fade in comparison with cheaper brands that I've tried, and a smoother and silkier appearance overall that actually lasted the distance. Price well worth it.
Tips: For hair dye in general I wouldn't do an at home job if I had lighter hair, so I'd do a bit of research before trying a lighter shade.
I find it difficult to find semi-permanent hair dyes, and this one works really well, I don't like the idea of regrowth and can't afford to upkeep permanent dyes so this works well for me to put a darker wash though my hair. Love it!
I prefer using semi-permanent as I dye my hair regularly so I feel it does less damage. This is easy to use, the colours are superb and it doesn't fade too quickly. It's not a bad price, and it's a great product. I'd definitely recommend it!
Tips: You can often get it on sale for about $16 so hold out if you can!
I have only ever used this hair dye once and found that it wasn't what i was expecting. I found that it was super easy to use and gives great coverage. This hair dye is also super long lasting and makes my hair look amazing definitely a glossy finish. I do however hate the scent but every brand of hair dye I have used has stinks. Will definitely repurchase this hair dye depending on what color I am going and if they have it or not.
