Adore better than Manic Panic and Sparks :)

I have used Manic Panic and Sparks, and Adore is for far my favorite brand. Manic Panic looks really good but fade really quickly, Sparks last longer but everything takes the color (clothes, hands, neck, everything!!!), Adore smells good, last almost 3-4 weeks without retouch and doesn't stain in anything, my hands are a little blue when I wash my hair but ones I get out of the shower my clothes never take the color of my hair. Another good thing of this dye is that I don't have to use gloves (sometimes I don't have in my house and I don't want to go outside). Once I finish I wash my hands with dish soap and the dye go out of my hands (with manic panic I pass almost 1 week with my hands green). I really love this brand since I use the first time. :) I attach a picture of my hair, more or less 1 month after I aplied Green Clover and 2 weeks after my tips gets aquamarine colors. Sorry for my bad english, I am a spanish speaker, but I want to give my review :)

Crimson for the win! Neutral ish deep red.

Crimson is my new favorite red hair color. I've been dying my hair for over 20 years. For a long time, I did my own hair and used Punky Color and Manic Panic dyes. Then, for years, I had my hair professionally colored using mostly Special Effects dyes. I love the staying power of SE, but not the bleeding! Adore dyes have pretty good staying power, but only really bleed the first few times getting the hair wet. Now, I am growing it out and instead of spending $$$ on a pro, just keeping up my ends in color. The formula is pretty liquidy like Special Effects and unlike the gels of Punky Color and Manic Panic. This makes a little harder to apply, but not too bad since I am only really working on my ends. Even though my hair is nearly black, if I apply this dye to my roots I get a purply/burgundy sheen on the black parts. I spent a long time choosing a red color and looking at swatches online. Crimson was my first pick and I was very satisfied with the final result. Recently I also picked up Ruby Red and Raging Red to compare/contrast and also to dye some extensions with highlights and lowlights. Crimson is a deep red with pink undertones, but almost neutral when compared to other reds in the range. All three reds I have tested from Adore have cool undertones, but Raging Red is very very cool - I am hoping that the darkness hides a lot of the coolness. None have the very warm and orange undertones of PC/MP colors like Vermillion Red, Pillarbox Red and Wildfire. (I tend to prefer these warmer shades.) I've been doing my hair so long I forget that many people don't know how to get the most out of semi-permanent color (which actually is MORE permanent than permanent dye for me). Here are some tips: 1. Wash before you dye, with a harsh "clarifying" shampoo, or dish soap w/o hand softeners if your hair will tolerate and rinse with warm/hot water. WHY? - this opens up the cuticle where color can be deposited as well as strips out other color and junk. 2. Do not condition before you dye. WHY? - this will close/smooth the cuticle and you don't want to do that until after you color. 3. Apply dye, wrap in plastic to contain moisture and apply heat and leave on for WAY longer than directions say. WHY? - this helps penetrate more color deeper. You want to keep it wet and activated, bc once it's dry, that's pretty much it. (This only applied to semi-permanent non-developer dyes.) 4. Rinse in COLD or lukewarm water. WHY? - to smooth down the cuticle again and keep that color in! If you have ever had a Brazilian Keratin treatment, they do the same think when rinsing it out. 5. Condition only after dying. WHY? - to close/smooth down the cuticle and keep the color in. Personally, I don't protect my hairline with Vasaline because it makes more of a mess for me. I just swab off the color with rubbing alcohol. If you bathtub is stained, bleach and AJAX are your friend. I'll update this review when I dye the extensions. I am also going to mix Ruby and Raging and see if the color tuns out sorta like Crimson.

MY NEW FAVORITE BRAND!!

BUY 👏 THIS 👏 PRODUCT 👏 Okay, so to start off this dye color is beautiful!! ( I bought the color royal navy #178) I mixed 1 whole bottle of 4 oz. dye with about 1/2 a cup of conditioner to lighten the navy to achieve my color. The formula is amazing and 1 bottle was enough for my thick hair! And I had a lot left over for a touch up. The color did not bleed as much as most dyes I have used in the past like manic panic and arctic fox. And let me just say, MY HAIR FADED BEUTIFULLY!! The 2nd time around when I dyed my hair I didn't put any conditioner in the dye and my hair still came out beautiful! I love this color and the formula. I CAN'T WAIT TO TRY OTHER COLORS!! ❤

10 stars!

I used this product straight out of the bottle on my slaughters dark blonde/light brown hair and it was SO vibrant and lasted for about a month through regular washing with normal (not color safe) shampoos and swimming. No damage to her hair and she's back to her natural color with no sign of purple just in time for school. PERFECT for descendants loving kids who want to mimic their favorite characters, I will be ordering more to try on myself!

Color “150 Grey” is great for toning brassy brown hair!!

So happy that I found this product! I have brown hair that is balayaged and the lightened bits tend to turn very red and brassy over time :( I’ve been to multiple salons / tried multiple toners on my own, and no product was able to correct my brassy hair. I eventually figured out that using a semi-permanent grey dye was able to eliminate brassy-ness on BROWN HAIR, leaving it a cool toned ashy brown. I used the Joico titanium dye for a while, but noticed that it washed out super quick (2-3 washes). This Adore brand lasts much longer! Very satisfied with this product and I would definitely recommend it to anyone that is trying to correct brassy brown hair! When this washes out / it is time to use again, I will post before and after photos!

Not a true platinum dye--At first!

The platinum dye turned my hair a purple tint. I was a little worried when I unscrewed the top and looked at what color the dye was because it was so purple but decided to go with it anyways. It's a nice color, don't get me wrong, but it's not platinum like on the bottle, or in the sample pieces of hair they use to advertise. It isn't because my hair was a different color before this, as I bleached and toned myself down to a white before putting it in. Update: So after about 3-5 washes the purple finally faded out and I was left with a pretty identical color to the bottle so I stand corrected as it IS a true platinum. It's been a few weeks now and the color has stayed in despite my constant washing. Good stuff, I'll probably try it again after a few more dyes.

does amazing job at hiding split ends

(i'm sorry for the terrible pictures but I hope you can see how healthy the ends look. i don't have a before pic, but trust me when i say my hair looked as frayed and tattered as old lace, and this dye does a fantastic job of hiding it.) this is a gorgeous deep blue with a touch of purple. vibrant, lasts a decent amount of time, and doesn't bleed as much as other dyes I've tried. it's also more liquid-y rather than gel-like, making it easier to spread through your hair, which means you tend to use less dye. but best of all, it does an incredible job of hiding split ends, and makes your hair look SO shiny and healthy. My hair is very fine so split ends are a huge problem for me, even though I only bleach virgin hair once and never use heat. I don't know if it's the dark color of the dye that conceals the split ends or if the formula actually mends them somehow, but I love it. every time I re-dye my hair (usually once every 2-3 months) it looks like I just got a haircut. you can leave it on for a few hours or even overnight without damaging your hair. this dye, along with Joico's indigo (also gorgeous, more purple-y than adore's indigo) and Special Effects deep purple (a more red-toned purple that fades to a very pretty pink) are my absolute favorites. this one fades to more of a light grayish blue, not as pretty as Special Effects, but honestly by the time it's faded my split ends are back in full force so I don't mind re-dying at that point.

Wonderful dye for gingers

I love this dye. It’s hard to find semi permanent dye in natural looking hair colors like copper and auburn. I mix Cajun spice and honey brown to maintain the color I have. I like to mix it with conditioner in the shower and leave it on for five minutes. Do this once or twice a week and you will never have to dye your hair dry.

Resists fade like a champ!

This is the FIRST (and really ONLY) pink hair color that I've used that isn't entirely gone and faded in a couple weeks. The irony is that when it's time to move onto a different color or I want to change it up, I have no issues getting it out! I personally prefer the shade cotton candy (and it looks intimidating in the bottle as if it would be too bright, but it's not). I've used various colors via this line and I absolutely love them all, I pass several stores with non traditional colors to get to the one who carries Adore (and come here when they're inaccessible).
