Ion Color Brilliance Semi Permanent Neon Brights Hair Color Radiant Orchid by Ion

I love this color! It comes out a pretty solid purple, and has a very nice fade out. I am being too lazy to bleach my roots, but the color blends well between the darker roots and the bleached part. Still can't wash my hair every day, I usually go every other day. It's pretty easy to apply, yes having very light blonde/white hair works best, it will help clear out some yellowing, but like it probably won't have much affect if you have darker hair, you'll have to bleach your hair first. Leave on for about 30 minutes at least and wash it out. It leaves my hair very soft and allows it some bounce. Yes, you will stain your skin if you apply directly with your bare hands, but washing your hands a few extra times than normal will get rid of the dye in about a day.

I love this product. Having used every foo foo color in every shade, every brand, both on myself and on my guests as a stylist, that is a bold statement! I'm a firm believer in ppl having fun with their hair. Color and cuts, going for whatever you need to put a little bit of fun and happy in your life. This orchid is beautiful and I have a fax hawkas well. And I'm 62yrs old, just saying. But this color lasts beautifully with each shampoo. Well worth every penny!

loved the color and I'm also still loving the color it is when fading outI have lots of hair sholdee length and two boxes were more than enoughnot that much color coming out in shower or staining any of my clothes which i really love because I've used other purple dyes that I've hated so I'm a happy costumer would definitely recommend to friends

Pro: The color is lovely...what there is of it, and I've had it in for over a month and there's still some there so that's not bad for staying power.Cons: Usually one box of hairdye is enough for me...we used two boxes of this and still had to go buy a third to get everything. It also is very simple box set up and doesn't come with any of the extras that your normal hairdye box comes with, no gloves, no conditioner. Not having gloves was a bit awkward when we went to do it since I've never bought dye that didn't come with them before and I wasn't prepared.

I personally love this dye. Its bright, beautiful, and it smells great!!! It comes in a tube and you squeeze it out into your dye bowl, and you can either add a little white conditioner or you can add some lightener. I added a couple drops of white conditioner and it made it spread easier on to my hair. my hair is pretty long and it took two tubes to cover my hair.It didn't leave my hair nasty and raw like a lot of other dyes can do, and Ion is actually a good product if you were to dye your hair :) I would DEFINITELY suggest this to friends and anyone who asked my opinion on it!! :)Downfalls..It does rinse out kinda fast, maybe 2 weeks or so. So if you want to keep it this color and this shade you have to keep up with it. I have been told to wash your hair in cold water, the coldest you can stand and it'll stay longer. I don't think it works that way on everyone, it didn't on my hair.I bought this is at about 5 dollars and I think it was well worth every penny:) This is a great product and I will probably use it again in the future :)
