Watercolors Intense Color Depositing Shampoo, Semi Permanent Hair Color 8.5 oz - BLUE

It gave such a refreshing look to my tired old lady white gray hair. Several people commented on how pretty it was, but they couldn't put their finger on what it was they saw. Others who did not know me even complemented how beautiful my mid back length white hair was. I will shampoo another few times to see if I can get the color to develop more intensely. At my age of 61 I have admired the color photos of older women who have their hair artic ice blue but fearful to try a permanent change but now this shampoo is giving me some baby steps to take to deepen the color to see how it fares. I hope to find someone I can trust who can do my color in the artic ice blue. The shampoo is drying initially; however, the results are worth it. So be sure once you shower and shampoo to have a really good OLD towel you don't mind staining and a leave in conditioner and hair treatment to leave on for some time to intensely detangle and soften the hair and give it shine. I was irritated upon arrival as the packaging was a bubble envelop and within there was a very thin bubble plastic cover??? When I opened it, the lid was busted, and color was everywhere and on me. However, I called Amazon immediately and their customer service was supreme! After I reported the issue, they promptly sent me another at no charge. I did suggest to Amazon that whoever packs the product needs to pack in a box with proper packing materials. Be careful as the color easily goes everywhere and gets on everything! It stains fingernails and hands for a little while so use gloves and avoid at all costs getting any of it on anything other than your hair! I would suggest that you keep it in your shower and leave it there!

Great product! I tried arctic fox and strawberry leopard before trying this product. Both cost me just under $20, were messy to apply and faded with the first wash so reapplication was necessary after the first week. I wash my hair once a week. On a recommendation, I tried this stuff. And my hair has been vibrant purple for over a month now, and I’m still using the same bottle. You have to be careful to wash the color off the shower immediately. I do this while I let the color set. I usually wash my hair about three times and do a deep condition, as it is a little on the sting side. Overall, this is the best way to affordable keep my color.

Awesome color depositing. It targets the specific area if you have 2 or more colors. Mine is burgandy and pink and it only deposited the color in the pink and brought it back to life.

This shampoo works great for maintaining my bright pink hair between colorings. It also works to add some color to light-colored unbleached hair. I shampoo it in and wait for about five minutes to fully refresh my color. The color washes out gradually over a week or so. The dark side: Just like all direct color, it goes absolutely everywhere and gets on the tub, the towels, fingernails, everywhere. It washes out of the towels, and bleach cleans it off everything else. Except. The bottle lid somehow drips and dribbles color for hours after using it. It leaves super concentrated dark pink stains in the tub. So when I get a new bottle I empty it into a normal shampoo bottle and throw away the watercolors bottle like the nasty trash it is. You'd think they'd change the bottle design, but it's still worth the hassle for the color.

Obsessed with this product!! It added a nice lavender color to my silver hair after only one use.

I like this product a lot. It leaves a gentle hue to my hair. This leaves my hair really soft. It's a win win purchase for me.

I’m torn on this review. I used the people color depositing shampoo for Halloween and it turned out a really pretty purple. My natural hair is lightened to about a level 7 with highlights at a level 9. The highlights picked up a really intense purple, while the darker areas were less intense. I tried to wash it out the next day - less than 24 hours after applying. Even after using clarifying shampoo and lots of other tricks found online, it faded but didn’t fully wash out. Five days and more than a dozen washes later, I still have some light purple and pink color in my highlights. And the darker areas have retained enough color that they have an auburn cast now. I bought this thinking it was a good option for temporary color but if you’re looking for something that washes out easily this may not be for you.

I recently got my hair colored to a dark brown with a mix of deep purple and spent quite the pretty penny on it. Obviously I wanted it to last a long time without having to give up my hot showers. My stylist recommended me this shampoo and Ive been using it for a little over 6 months and couldn’t ask for better results. I wash my hair every other day with this stuff and use it only on the length of my hair, not my roots. It keeps the color so vibrant and popping, people actually started to notice the purple hair more after using this shampoo. It is a little messy and can stain if your not careful, but even the stains wash away over time. The scent isn’t bad, but it’s not fragrant either. I’d recommend using a good deep conditioner along with this stuff too because it does tend to leave my hair slightly dry. I’d expect a purple tub while using this stuff though but it with the way it works i’d say it’s worth it!
