How much does the color bleed for this dye? Am I going to color everything my hair comes in contact with, or is it only after a couple of washes?

From my experience, it actually bleeds less than most dyes. And it stained my white counter, but after a few harder scrubs, it came right off. Didn't get on my pillow. Came off of my skin really really easy too

Hon it stains clothes forever I usually use an old tshirt and first wash it will bleed on to the towel I recommend using a dark one .. Be careful of your surfaces ! (Counters and such ) hope it helps ! Very good long lasting color though !

This color bleeds less than manic panic does. Shades like red bleed more than the blues and greens. I blowdry my hair after the first few washes, but after that it doesnt bleed!

When wet my hair bleeds and dyes everything it touches for sometimes up to a month, but it does wash at least partially out.When its dry my hair does really bleed at all except for a tiny bit on things its in contact with a ton- hair ties, pillow cases, and hats mostly.I have heard diluting the dye with conditioner and rinsing with a white vinegar/water mixture right after dying helps reduce bleeding, although I haven't tried those. I did put a clear coat on a day after I dyed my hair the last time and that seemed to help a bit, and also made my the color last longer and made my hair beautifully shiny!

It doesn't fade my color any faster then any other dandruff shampoo that I've tried. If you're worried, I would just grab a good conditioner made for color treated hair to use after.

I have dirty blonde hair, and the dye did not stick to my hair at all. I followed all the directions on the box, except for pre-bleaching, because I've never needed to do it with any other dye, and it just washed right off, leaving no trace that it had been soaking in all that time, or at all.

Hi Tracy, it lasts only 2-3 weeks. It is a beautiful natural color, however the main reason I use this dye, is that I am allergic to ammonia and peroxide. Otherwise I would prefer a permanent hair dye as opposed to this semi permanent Hope this helps, Antoinette

I have done that with other brands no problem! just condition really well. my gripe with this one is that it bleeds and there isnt much of it. it's really a pretty colour though.

No problem with the color bleeding. Just be careful this cloth is rough and may stick or pull on nylon fabric. Smooth on the skin but not good with other fabrics. I wash mine by hand after each use and air dry.

If thats your natural color it should still be a nice shade of purple. If you were to bleach it using the lowest developer, the color would stand out more. I did it on red/magenta hair and a nice purple blue came out.

I mixed it with a white conditioner. Even if you want a really vibrant color I would suggest doing this. It stretches the amount of color you have out quite a bit. I had purple hair for several months and never went through this entire amount.

Same here. I don't color my hair, but I can't imagine that it would strip out any color you put in. It is so mild and natural.

I just splat a whole bit of it on top over my wet hair after I shampoo and comb it through. Most of it washes out after the first shampoo. I just repeat. The color I'm using is close to my own color . . . it pretty much just covers the gray for me . . . nothing too dramatic.

I bought 2 just to be safe. Mine is thick, but not terribly long. I ended up mixing the color with conditioner. You don't need to mix with a developer (or toner as someone else said... not sure why you'd mix it with a toner), because it's more of a stain than a dye. It is super dark if you put the color straight on your hair, so I'd suggest mixing with conditioner to lighten it up and get the bright purple.

Yes find your exact color, I suggest two bottles get A plastic type bucket which can be used later to wash it. The this g is to comb out the hairs apply like normal then acordian the entire piece in the bucket poor left over in with pieces do not stir get a wooden spoon and just push it to just keep hair sunk, next. Bottle that hasn't been opened poor over and push with the spoon, try. Not to tangle OK keep it I. There for at least four days yes four if ya want it perfect . When washing put conditioned only no shampoo ever rui s the slip. Ice water and cold water mixed well with conditioner suave works great. Make sure hair is combed out properly' good luck Yes find your exact color, I suggest two bottles get A plastic type bucket which can be used later to wash it.

This IS a hair dye... you will need to purchase a developer along with it, but it should turn out fine on your hair.

My natural color is a medium brown and it lightens my hair a bit with extended use. I've used same product for about 2 years. It will definitely turn any grey you have into a red/auburn color. The directions say to leave it on for an hour, but I leave it on for two (it wont damage your hair because there aren't any harsh chemicals.) Keep in mind that henna oxidizes and takes about 2 days for full color to actually take form. When I rinse it out, it always seems a little brassy to me, but after a day it softens and on the third day color is a very pretty reddish brown. So to answer your question, I would say that it would probably leave a reddish tone on your hair (maybe seen more in the sunlight) and with highlights red colors would become stronger after extended use........ The good news is that it is inexpensive so if it doesn't work, you didn't spend $150 at a salon. And if you don't like it, no worries because it fades after 3 weeks :)

I' m not sure you should ask a professional my hair doesn't color easily but this colored it in 45 minutes but it didn't last long it faded sooo fast in less than 2 months after 4 months it was orange I colored it with manic panic pillar box red applied it on my hair and left it in for 12 hours the red came back vibrant and gorgeous but the roots needed touching up my hair is soooo damaged from the lo real hi color hi lights it's been a year since the last time i dyed my hair red my hair is still weak and brittle with a whole lot of split ends I cut my hair twice the past year but the split ends keep coming back if you still want to give it a try don't forget to keep your hair conditioned and protect it from heating tools hope this helped :)

yes it is a hair dye. I'm not sure about using it im not a hair dresser but my daughter is. From what i'be learned from her over the years it sound more like you need to bleach your hair to take the color out then apply the color dye to match the color you want to be. I think i would go to a salon if i were you. I'm just covering gray when i use it.
