    There are way too many variables in this test. Such as:
    -Hair color (before dyeing)
    -Application of dye
    -Hair history
    -Shampoo type
    -Water temperature
    -etc.

      3. How long the dye was allowed to sit
      4. Type of hair

      Can't imagine this is happening! Last winter i was using arctic fox purple rain and for 2 months and at least 2 washes a week with hot water (which helps fading faster) it almost didn't change! Yes, it doesn't stay on my natural hair but on bleached it's like forever!
      Now I'm all arctic fox rainbow using purple rain, poseidon, aquamarine, phantom green, cosmic sunshine, sunset orange and a mix of sunset orange and wrath for red and one month later it's still perfect, the colors didn't blend and even the yellow is perfect yellow without any green in it! So, try better next time.

    There’s a lot of issues wrong with the test, this is coming from a Professional’s stand point btw, bleached hair is already porous so it doesn’t hold onto color as well since the previously lightened hair’s cuticle is burst open it grabs easily but it doesn’t hold and since he’s at such a high level of blonde, lime crime never really stood a chance tbh

      Hey i need some help with a mistake that I make wrt to hair colour. I got an ombre in blonde. I have black hair and I'm Indian. In order to attempt a burgundy hair colour at home I bought a do at home kit which mentioned number 3.16 on it. I did it and now my hair is black again. One can see the burgundy colour in sunlight only. I just wanted to ask you whether the burgundy dye will come off after like a lot of washes or will it just stay and I'll have a black stain on my blonde hair.

    • @hazel-gracegrbesic5043
      @hazel-gracegrbesic5043 5 років тому +3

      Shivani Sangal the scale of hair lightness is from 1-10, 1 being the darkest, 10 being the lightest. 3 means you got a really dark color and with the pigment of your hair, you have to lighten your hair first to get any sort of pigment to show up as anything more than a hue which is what you’re experiencing when you’re out in the sunlight. If it was permanent color, it won’t fade with each wash, it’s going to slightly lighten but it’s going to stain the hair cuticle. My best advice is get a color remover done by a salon professional and have them redo it for you before anymore damage is done

      Your profile looks like that of a 13 year old, along with your grammar lol I don’t believe you worked at a “hairdresser”. And trained professionals typically don’t work with brands like arctic fox in a professional salon. They have special, more high quality brands that a lot of times can only be bought by people with a cosmetology license. That’s part of why getting hair professionally done costs so much, their materials are much more expensive than a $10 hot topic dye lol.

    From experience, the arctic fox was the best for me. Manic panic lasted a fraction of Arctic fox.
    Arctic fox lasted 2.5-3 for my hairbtw I also used purple rain and bonus, it smells like grape sweetarts😅 my friends would smell my hair😂 it also helps if you start to use color specialized treatment shampoo&conditioner
    Manic panic lasted 1 month.

      I got vampire red, the amplified manic panic, I dyed my hair back in early January and my hair is still pretty red, about 6 months later. I don't really do anything specific to keep it in, except I end my showers with cold water, my roots are horrible but it's fading only slightly. So I only end up dyi ng me hair 2 or 3 times a year, depending on what's going on.

    Fun fact: hair that's easy to lift and dye will lose dyes faster than hair that's harder to lift and dye.
    Because the cuticles are more opened the dye falls off much easier.
    Getting shampoo that doesn't open your cuticles also helps keep the color stick to your hair between washing.

    I wanted that soft rose-gold pink and watched several videos on how-to. When I went to purchase the dye I bought the SFX because it had such great reviews. When I mixed it with the conditioner I used VERY LITTLE and my hair is still day-glo pink. It’s honestly really pretty but not what I was looking for.
    If you try the same thing I recommend adding the color in 1/2 teaspoon increments until it’s the color you want. Apparently with other colors you need to make the color mixture brighter than what you actually want but with SFX it turns the exact color you see.

    As someone who dyes their hair regularly, it just depends on how long you want the color to last. Special effects is the longest lasting, arctic fox is good for a medium lasting, and manic panic for a very temporary color. I'm lazy so I love the special effects the most, it stays for a really long time. But keep in mind if it's short lasting like manic panic then it bleeds a lot onto pillow sheets, clothes, etc.

      Yep. Certain Special Effects colours are pretty much permanent stains. The red/pink/purple colours the most. I used Pimpin Purple and two years later it's bright pink and still there when new colours I put over top have washed out XD I love it!

    I had Arctic Fox in my hair for 4 weeks and it was vibrant like the 3rd persons hair. It is how you wash your hair and take care of it. I was my hair every other day in cold water and color safe shampoo/conditioner.

    Honestly Arctic Fox is my favorite cheap dye but it is best with bleach blonde hair and did come out of my roots and they were yellow blonde. I have it in my hair for over 46 washes

      A girl on UA-cam has tried the LimeCrime hair dyes and she has jet black hair, the dye gave her hair a tint but it was more visible outdoors

      Yeah it tints and stays for a long time but doesn’t dye

      Black hair needs to be bleached in order to get vivid bright colours to show

      If your hair is jet black no. If it has a hue of brown undertone it will tint it.

      Mahi Patel Using red or brown would work, but i would just bleach it if i were you.

    i use that exact shade of arctic fox n honestly it lasted fairly long. the first run i did it took forever to fade, and most recently i used permanent dark purple dye with arctic fox over it once it started to turn brown, and its still purple after like 2-3 months. you have to have rly light hair for best results and avoid sulfate hair products which takes the color out. if you bleached your hair prior you wont need to wash it as much since itll be drier which obviously helps the dye stay in

      i have naturally oily hair though, if you dont you should use hair treatments and avoid heat like hairdryers or straighteners (if you bleach it). sulfate also makes your hair drier n wont help in recovery
