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's been about a month since I used this, and the color has faded some, but I had a mess before - roots one color and the rest another (failed attempt to match didn't work). My hair, although lighter than when I first applied the dye, is still all one color. I'd think it will last another 2-3 weeks...

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 was able to color it with a bleach lightener. The color came out pretty good. I received lots of compliments and not one knew I was wearing a lace top. I did not experience any tangles or shedding. Treat this as if if were you own hair and you should be fine. I've ordered it twice and both pieces were the same and the quality is very nice for the price. Hope this helps

Be sure not to use any conditioner after you wash your hair before coloring. That seems to make a difference for me anyway!

I got this in mid-March and had my hairdresser bleach out the bottom 5" and do an ombre. I brought home the other half tube and mixed it with conditioner that I use to touch up the color. As it fades, on me it's gone a lighter blue and purple with maybe a little green, but not much. It's actually a nice color mixture as it fades.

I have used a couple of their products over the years. I think that would work. It doesn't work like regular hair dye where you are mixing chemicals and it develops. It is already in its final state. You are just letting it soak into your hair. For example, I have short hair, so I have used half a bottle and then used more in a few weeks. I will say though, it is not super long lasting, so you may just want to do it the full time because it will fade. The copper is my favorite! It gives a nice natural redhead looking tone, rather than the unnatural red you often see in dyes. Hope that helps!

I would bleach first, so your color is even. The splat bleach works very quickly so keep an eye on it. My hair was a light brown and it only took 25 min. for it to come up.

I started using indigo in November (4 months ago). My color has not faded at all. My hair is difficult to dye! I have had permanent dyes that washed out when I rinsed my hair. I only apply indigo to my new growth, after applying henna. I do not mix them. I like that dark auburn with red streaks. It looks like my family's hair color. This product is also not as gritty as others and easier to rinse out (after three rinses with applying conditioner between rinses).

I use the conditioner that comes with the hair color immediately after coloring per instructions, then the next day and after that I use the only Wen daily. It's great, keeps your color from fading.

I can't speak on all the bundles they send out but I can definitely tell you mine was not virgin it was processed. Black dye came out when I rinsed it, it had a weird smell on it, and it had color strands like red and gray in the hair. I honestly brought the hair because it was all I could afford, and the hair is nice once you co wash, but the description was misleading.

Only during the first 2 washes. It shouldn't stain the rest of your hair though

Since it's a stain is will always transfer a little color in the first few washes. It will fade pretty quickly too. I was amazed that it had completely washed out in 2 weeks. You will get the best results if you put it on hair that has already been lightened.

My hair is actually color treated! Light brown too. No it didn't darken my hair at all. I'm at the end of my bottle and since I've gotten it I've seen at least 2 inches of growth though, so I'm getting the roots re-colored soon. And no redness either. I just put a little bit on my head at night, wrap it up and keep it moving.

I color my hair and have for ten plus years, so I just get the color treated, never thought to question. Good question though. There is a phone number and e-mail on the bottle. (800)BOSLEY1 and www.bosleypro.com. Just ask.

I used loreals color zap which is safer than bleaching. It takes the dark black out of my hair and turned my hair color to an yellow color. I waited two days and really washed it out good before using sparks. It allows the color to be visible. I really liked the out come of the color the first week. However it really bleeds onto your skin for a few days after coloring.mIt's just like any other hair dye, it doesn't last.

Nop. Its not a for hair coloring. It is for enhancing color and shine. It makes your hair more soft shining and straight. No friz. Leave it on for 20 min. Then wash normaly.
