L'Oreal Paris Colorista Metallic Semi Permanent Hair Color for Bleached or Blonde Hair, Color Depositing Hair Mask Formula, Metallic Blue

Gorgeous color! Many compliments every day! Easy to use, one tube lasts a long time. The color washes out and fades each shampoo, but lasts for a month or more over all. I think L’Oriel is discontinuing the product and we are so sad about that!

I used to use cherry koolaid to dye my hair and was hoping this would replicate that. It totally does! I have jet black hair, and using this dye gave my hair a red/maroony tint. It does show on black hair, but you need to have the right lighting. Being inside and using indoor lights doesn’t show up very well, but if you’re out in the sunlight it’ll be VERY noticeable. It was super easy to use. I wore an old tshirt, and split my hair into two. I put the dye directly onto my hands (with the gloves on) and rubbed it into each part. I have really long hair, about 24 inches, and I went about halfway up my hair with the dye. I still had a bit leftover. I held my hair away from my face and let it set for 30 minutes. It took a while to wash out since there was sooo much dye. Like 5-10 minutes rinsing my hair out under the faucet. I stopped when the water was a slight red and dried it off. The towel I used got stained, so beware of that. I washed my hair a few days later and dye still came out, but it didn’t stain as much as before. I would totally recommend this dye. If you’re careful, and take your time washing out your hair, you won’t get many stains. I didn’t get any stains on my skin or pillowcases. The conditioner in the dye left my hair super smooth and soft, which I was surprised about. I bought this product not worried about whether it was actually temporary or not. So far it’s still very vibrant. I’ve been through 3 washes and after the first, the dye stopped washing out.

I was honestly really impressed with this hair dye. I have natural brunette hair with a blonde halo (its an inch of bleached hair around my hairline.) and its pretty healthy. I have been highlighting my hair for the past 6 years and for the first year or 2 I would have my stylist dye it professionally. This was my first time dying my hair at home and I am very happy with the results. I dyed the blonde parts of my hair as directions stated. I wanted blue hair and liked the colors the box said it would be. It ended up being more of a purple that wanted to be blue really bad but just didn't make it. I really liked the color tho. The product itself comes in a white tube and the dye itself looked purple when applied. It turned out as a soft but still strong purple that could be considered indigo. I wish it was a more vibrant purple but if I wanted that in the first place I should have bought purple dye. When it says semi permanent it means it. Considering many people said their color lasted 4+ washes mine faded to a more of a light purple after 1 and faded almost all the way to now just a very soft purple that's hard to see at 2. It wont stain unless you don't clean up the dye with in 20-30 mins of getting it on something. It came with a brush and many gloves which I really liked. This would have been a 5 if the color was more blue. If I could give it a 4.9 I would. Overall if you want more of a soft purple that will fade nicely and is affordable buy this. (both photos were after 1 wash)

I am SO in love with this stuff! So far I've purchased it twice, it's that good. While it's perfect for MY needs, it might be a miss for you, and here's why: I have dark brown hair. Or shall I say HAD. I'ts turning grey, so it was salon dyed with highlights. But now my hair is growing out, and instead of a touch up, I want it to grow out to virgin hair. 2 inches of grey roots and faded medium brown ends? YUK! How was I going to leave the house unless wearing a ski mask?! I had this idea I wanted that purple/grey color after all the brown grew out. When I saw that this product doesn't damage your hair, I thought I'd try it. I've used manic panic in the past. This was reasonably priced so I went with this burgundy, because it didn't come in a purple for dark hair. Washed hair, towel dried. Instead of using the brush, I used a rat tail comb, applying the gel color on to the base and combing through. Waited. Rinsed. WOW!!!!! The grey is that gorgeous light purple, and in the light you can see streaks of dark burgundy on the brown hair. Subtle, but there. It looks like a salon did it. AND...my hair feels like it gets a conditioning treatment every time I use it! I'm not careful about avoiding my scalp, so my head is a little blotchy before my next shower. The next shower takes the scalp color off and it looks perfect. I've also put it on dry hair around my face, because those areas fade quickly because you wash your face twice a day and wear makeup. I just leave it in my hair until I wash it next. I never was very good at following directions, heehee! Comes with gloves, and the gloves are much better than box color gloves, but as a glove addict I always have the better fitting medical gloves on hand, and use those. LOVE. THIS. STUFF.

So I've been using this for about 3-4 yrs now and it's okay. Box came a little smushed since it was shipped in a bag this time🙄 What I do like is that I can actually use this dye since it doesn't have ingredients like Glycerin, Propylene Glycol, Polyethylene Glycol, Sorbitol,etc which trigger my migraines within minutes of being on my skin, hair or inside (food & drink). So I'm glad I finally found this. What I don't like is that after about 5 washings, it's gone poof no more like I never used it. I loved Manic Panic and Splat but they've got the ingredients that I found trigger my migraines. Those dyes would last for 6-10 months, of course it faded alot but you could still see it and I always got compliments on it and I also use Light Blonde hair color every 3 months or so and it still stayed in but not with Colorista. And now since I'm home more I'm not even washing my hair daily, usually 2-3 times a week so why it doesn't stay in longer I've got no clue. I haven't had an issue with this staining my skin but I've also learned my lesson with Manic Panic so I now know what to do & not do. I wear a beauty cape plus gloves and I've gotten to the point that I don't have to use Vaseline around areas on my face that I used to always manage to get it on. I also just choose sections to dye and not all of my hair, I experiment depending on my mood🤪😁 Also, I don't use bleach before using this or my Wella Semi Permanent Light Blonde hair color even though I'm starting to get those pesky gray hairs now😉 The pic of my hair is after a 2nd washing, it was much darker/brighter prior to washing this morning (dyed it 3 days ago). So it really does fade fast on my hair compared to the other 2 brands I mentioned above that I used to use.

Genuinely so bad, I ordered this because I’ve used this product before from target. I applied it like the instructions say and like I’ve always done but it only made my hair darker and greener. My hair is typically pretty blondeish light brown with blonde streaks but this turned it a muddy brown with greenish blueish hues. It was supposed to be red/maroon. Idk if they sent me an expired one or what but it’s horrible and now my hair looks green. To top it off I tried to process a refund but they want me to send it back so now I have to also return it. In the photos you can’t see well how green it turned idk why but in person it’s so green. I added the photo anyways since you see a little bit. But obviously it’s not red at all so didn’t work and made hair green

I have very dark blonde (dyed) hair with some highlights. I wasn't sure if I should go for the brunette or the blonde. I knew I wanted saturated color, not just a highlight, so I picked the brunette in red. WOW!!! It is flaming, awesome red. I get compliments every single place I go. Even people who have never seen me with my "regular" hair stop me to say "I LOVE your hair color!" I never have had an unusual color before (well, once it was pink but it was a haircolor goofup that only my husband saw...oh, and the drugstore person who sold me the color remover! ha ha!) I figured what the heck and went for bold red. I really am loving it. I almost hate to see it rinse down the drain. And it totally does rinse...it seems like you are standing in a puddle of melted cherry popsicle. I thought ahead and used an old red towel I had otherwise I would have dyed a lighter colored one. I don't see it on my pillowcase or anything, but I make sure my hair is dry before bed. No almost dry...dry dry. I have not had it transfer to any clothes yet either. Now, the big question is will it rinse out of color treated hair. So far I am only on shampoo #3, so it is staying pretty red. I don't over wash or rinse it (since I like the color) but I can see some dark blonde tinge coming through here and there. I am not sure if the highlighted ends will end up pink or what, but will update when I get to shampoo like 10 or so. I should say though that I am totally enjoying this color and may end up re-doing the red one more time before I even try to get it out. If it is really stuck, and I don't like the faded color, I may go for the color remover eventually. My daughter tried the blue/teal, and it gave her brown/dark brown hair a nice cast of blue. It doesn't look like blue hair, but a darker version of her natural color with a very noticable blue hint. It isn't like old lady, you can't miss the blue. She likes it a lot.

I love this color, it looks beautiful on me and lasts a long time. I highly recommend it.
