Anthony Wright –
Applied the dye to my dark brown hair after lightening to level 8. The result was a deep, rich burgundy that looked stunning. Hair felt softer after application and didn’t feel dry or brittle. I’m happy with the color and the fact it’s PPD-free.
Maria Glover –
Got the Vampire Red and it gave my hair a bold, intense red tone. It’s not a bright red but a deep, blood-like color. The conditioning effect is noticeable—my hair feels healthier after use. I did need to lighten my hair first, as recommended.
Irene King –
I’ve tried several hair dyes before, and this one stands out. The pigment is strong and long-lasting. My hair stayed vibrant for over a month. It’s vegan and safe, which I appreciate. The application was simple and the color is exactly as shown in the photos.
Diane Howard –
The color is deep, but it faded a bit after two weeks. I think it might be better on lighter hair. Also, the instructions were a bit unclear about how much to use for long hair. I used two bottles and still had some patchiness.
