LIVE Denim Steel

Brilliant hair dye fab colour

Lasted me well over 2 months so far, good rich colour, easily covered my whole head.

Live Colour hairdyes are always gorgeous colours and last a fairly long time in your hair. This one especially is super vibrant. The only reason I knocked a star off is because my hair is always much worse quality after using Live Colour hairdyes than equivalent hairdyes.

Thus product was easy to use - just follow the instructions. My hair is long but not very thick any more and I used a tube and a half for full coverage. I left it on for 15 minutes, then rinsed and conditioned. I have been outdoors a lot in this sunny weather and my hair has really yellowed - this toner has eliminated entirely all the yellow as you can see. I will prefer it in a wash or two when is is a little less grey/lavender, but I will buy it again as it's a great colour corrector.

For a kick off, the instructions were in several kinds of Baltic languages but not English, so wasn't off to the best start. I watched several YouTube tutorials to make sure I was going to be doing it right (having used the permanent Live colour for many years, kinda had an idea) as I was using a semi-permament dye for the first time. Luckily, one tutorial advised spinning the cream out using conditioner as it is very thick...and I'm glad they did otherwise it would have not covered much of my hair. Anyhoo, pre-lightening all done I set to work. I mixed the cream with conditioner and started applying it, using a tinting brush as recommended. I have medium length hair, purchased two boxes as this is usually sufficient on the permanent dye. I woefully underestimated how much I'd need. But I managed to cover my hair anyway. I'm not even sure 6 boxes would have given me the coverage I needed, even with spinning the cream out!!! I tried not to worry as it needed time to sit on the hair...it'll be fine when it's rinsed, I mistakenly told myself. Good lord was I wrong! It is patchy at best, instead of Denim Steel...it's a weird tie-dye seagreen and the palest blue. From the back, you'd only know there was colour in it if I'm standing under a light. The bits where the blue has taken are fairly close to the box colour, but there just isn't enough. It could be the fact I didn't buy enough boxes...however, I reckon even with 4 boxes the colour would be vague. And I was wanting to change my colour up but this would be too costly (due to needing a ehole heap more boxes of dye) and far too time consuming for me to consider so I'm going back to my two box permanent dye to cover this...this was a lot of faff for virtually no change. I daresay folk have had great experiences with this but I'll not be buying this again.

I was so pleased with the initial result. My grey fringe turned the gorgeous vibrant pink that I wanted. 3 days later and my hair hasnt been washed yet and the grey hair is at showing very obviously at the roots already... kinda disappointing as I'd ordered it again so reckoned I'd have it ready to use in a few weeks. Didn't think I'd be needing to use it within 3 days. Says semipermanent and washes out in 12-15 washes. Mine hasnt even been washed and already looks like it been washed numerous times...

Use it regularly and is excellent hair looks great and looks natural

It lasts well

ok

i have been dying my hair pink for over 19 years, thought i'd try something new.. very disappointed. cream comes out chunkily, though od nice and thick. upon application, color doesn't seem to adhere, doesn't appear to have any effect color- wise. order came in pkg of 3, i'll never use them. i'm sticking with splat.

Nice paste. Bright red colour that lasts.

Diese Farbe ist ein totaler Reinfall es hat gar nicht gefärbt, Haare sehen aus wie vorher und das obwohl wir die Einwirkzeit auf 45 Minuten gezogen haben. Echt Schade um jeden Cent den man dafür aufgegeben hat. Nicht zu Empfehlen

Très bien mais pas assez pour les cheveux
