help! I have seen a lot of people complaining about buying dye and finding out it was old and had oxidized before they even got to use it.

I had a problem with oxidation when I bought the color KK Mix in a tube on ebay. When I opened the tube, it was obvious because the color was darker than the prior tubes I'd bought, and it seemed drier. However, I ordered this canister of KK mix from Amazon and opened it about 5 weeks later. It was perfect. From the comments I've read that hair dressers have posted on Sleekhair dot com, the canisters last a long time, much longer than the tubes, because they are airtight.

I have never had this issue and I have bought Goldwell products online for years from different sites. Maybe you can ask the vendor how old the products are. I usually go with the vendors that have great reviews and so far so good. Good luck!

I had never bought hair color online. I was very satisfied with my Goldwell purchase. It seemed to be the same quality as what my hairdresser uses. I travel a lot and use this in between hair appointments with my hairdresser.

My dye wasn't bad/oxidized. I had a great experience with this hair color. First time buyer.

Have bought it for several years and there has never been a problem with it oxidizing. In fact, I am really surprised that anyone is even making such a comment that it does oxidize, because the pressurized container is air tight and one can only get the solution out by their special "contraption" that releases the solution. Could be the comments are coming from a competitor trying to attack the product, and maybe they are not familiar with the protective packaging. People do that you know (smile).

Mine wasn't but I have heard that same thing from other shoppers and hairstylists. I would go with a company that has good reviews rather than who is priced best.

Good question. I have gotten product that is excellent but have also gotten product that smells like soured laundry left in the washer for too long by accident. You do have the option of asking a question of the vendor so it is a good idea to request the expiration date.

this seller has sold me an expired item...for full price. In the past, when I first ordered the NiteWorks, I was able to find a website on a Google search that interprets the code on the container. Good luck.

Janet, I would NOT use it until you have contacted the sellers. That does not sound good. They should definitely know what is going on with their product and know that it is only a year old! Good luck.

Evidently not because when I asked to return it, I was told I could get a refund only if the product was not used. WELL, how else would I know if I had a bad reaction or not? I would not count on a money back guarantee, if you open it and try it.

I have found that if you let the bottle sit around, or buy it at a discount from some untrusted source, it WILL get yellowish, and sometimes even will dry a little on the bumpy side (not sure how else to describe it). I've been using this product for 17 years, but I often misplace things and have a hard time complying with long term beauty regimens, so I have had had MANY opportunities to see that if you don't use the stuff, it will end up going bad after a few months. Find a trusted distributer and try always to buy from them and use consistently. I have to resist the urge to buy in bulk.

It usually requires 3 hours cause it seems more like a stain than dye. It's really good stuff. It just takes awhile. Just keep checking it

I haven't had any problems with colors bleeding or lighter parts looking off yet! If it's a new article of clothing with those features, I'd check to see if it needs a 2nd rinse if the dye is really saturated in the dark fabric.

Yes I did, and will never do it again. Eventually after about 10 washes the navy dye I used faded from the machine. I complained to dylon and they sent me two items to get the colour from a wash I run after using the dye and looked very grubby. It did help but I did lose some items because they were really dull in colour. Just to let you know I would never use it again in any washing machine

Nothing. It's the sellers here on Amazon trying to rip us off. I also heard that Nioxin is supposedly reformulating the product, but not to try and sell it for the prices these greedy opportunists on Amazon are trying to get. It's not the company charging these prices. It's because of it's lack of availability right now. I thought it was supposed to reformulated by now. You've got me curious about again. It's been a couple of years since I was looking for this. It was a good product once, it didn't need improvement (probably had ingredients in it that weren't supposed to be there). I paid the same thing you did. Hopefully, it will be coming out soon. Plus, if sellers still have the old stuff, it has to be REALLY old and probably expired by now.

It says on the bottle. I think they will never sell an expired product. If you find it expired then you can always return it or they will refund you

thats most likely an old photo, they will not send you expired item. You go through them pretty quickly so they should not expire on you.

Do not use this product if been opened. I would be concerned cause I don't really trust ebay.. People that sell their things usally comes broken , or used not like new...Honestly, I would throw the bottle away or make a complain because if you get an infection or something, and you don't have proof who it came from, then that's a big issue. I would just recommend you bying this product here cause it actually comes from the ISO Company...

Probably not. It's a pigment, not a dye (not being sarcastic). Look up the difference on Wikipedia--I don't remember offhand.

I had one that also looked like it came from a different dye lot. Since it was a third party that had sold it, I contacted National Geographic directly. They were extremely helpful and sent me a new one that had gone through their quality control department first. I'm about to order another one and am considering the same thing. Since Amazon is cheaper, I will try it but will check it first for imperfections.

I used 20% of another brand? Because Redken was unavailable everywhere. I would have to check but it was a similar product with no peroxide. Everyone was out of 20% so I had to send far away for it and time was of the essence so I went ahead with the other brand and ordered the 30% of Chromatics just in case it didn
