INH Semi Permanent Hair Color | Color Depositing Conditioner | Ruby Red Hair Dye | No Bleach & No Peroxide Temporary Tint for Women & Men | Vegan, Ammonia Free, & Sulfate Free | Ready to Use, 6oz

I have been dying my hair for 30+ years, starting with manic panic I have tried Artic Fox, Punky Color, Special Effects, Pravana Chromasilk (OG), and a host of other random Brands. Yet to try Pulp Riot and good dye young. That all being said, my review is such. This brand reminds me a lot of original formula Manic Panic. Deep and Rich colors and heavy on the color bleed. I find the aquamarine color bleed the worst so far, no problems with the Amethyst myself. My hair is soft and manageable after using this, the smell is quite mild and nice as well. I find the color holds best when used immediately after lightening while your hair follicles are still a bit more receptive to color. My color strand test immediately after lightening did not bleed as much and stayed very well for the greens and blues with only 10m development time. The pinks did not hold as well with this amount of time. I found the formula a dream to work with. Just the right consistency to go on and spread easily to just where I wanted it for this look. Blending the colors was different the hues are not mixed the way many others and if you mix amethyst and red, you will not get a pretty purple. Saphire and purple creates an amazing royal Blurple. The greens and blues on this line are unlike any I have used before, I could mix the colors they give us but rarely did I find these deep hues quite this way, the unique color profile makes buying the emerald, aquamarine and Saphire worth it alone. I would even say the emerald is the perfect forest green. It is truly stunning and I honestly forgot to put it in my hair and was heartbroken because it is so beautiful and rich. The red is also a perfect red IMO, a wonderful deep and vibrant red, though I didn’t use it in this style. The yellow, orange and light green in my photo are IroIro as my yellow funshine bear did not arrive in time. For the reviews that state this gets everywhere, this is much like any deep pigment dye I have used and, like most conditioning colors, it will adhere better to less than healthy hair. So I highly recommend buying a color bowl kit and gloves and rinsing your hair in a shower that won’t stain. Every dye I have used stains my shower to some degree and if you want it to last longer, bleach your hair. I will absolutely use this dye again, it is incredibly rich and vibrant and makes my hair wonderfully soft. I cannot speak to how long the color bleed will last but if it is pervasive that is a definite deal breaker for most, it will stain your everything and sometimes your hands and neck with bad enough bleed. Still 5 stars because it is one of the best dyes I have used and many brands have one or two colors that bleed. If anyone at INH reads this, please make an orange color :). Update: the color bleed ceased and the color is now simply gorgeous with no ill effects. After first wash the colors were still incredibly vibrant and my hair is silky, shiny and soft.

I'm going grey from very dark brown hair. Ive been dying it my original natural color for quite a while and finally grew all the dye out and had virgin hair again. I had always wanted a fun vivid fashion color, but never wanted to bleach my nearly black hair. My mom was a cosmetologist and while I've never bleached my hair out of fear of frying it, I always had access to professional color and was comfortable with the single process after years of my mom doing it for me at home. I used a redkin semipermanent violet color for a very subtle plum glow under a light and age perfect permanent colors in both darkest plum and darkest intense brown to much success. From my mom, I knew once I started going grey that I needed to go from 10v to 20v developer bc grey hair just doesnt take permanent dye as easily, nor will it really absorb semipermanent color. So even though my hair is now light, I did not expect this color to take as it is recommended for neither dark nor grey hair. I tried the amethyst since Ive used purple color before (which I loved but violet tones bleed like crazy and I got sick of that, browns don't bleed) and figured it would either leave my hair black, or not take at all. The thick color application was different but easy (esp with nothing to mix), USE GLOVES and clean DRY hair and protect your ears and hairline. I bagged my head and let it sit fot 90 minutes with no heat. I rinsed it for about 15 minutes.....you won't get that water clear, and I actually washed it 2x bc I didn't want it bleeding everywhere (I don't think you are supposed to wash it out, just rinse). I didnt wear gloves while rinsing/ washing and thought my hands were stained purple....I was afraid to see my face. My hair was a dark but extremely vivid bluish purple that glowed under light (color is NOT subtle, pics dont do it justice). The pepper went black and the salt went purple, and it was super shiny. Its gradually fading.....not quickly. Pics are virgin, directly after dying/washing 2x, after about 2-3 more washes, and then after about 8-9 total washes, where some of my salt is now lavender. It bleeds a little in the shower but does not rub off on my pillow (it might if it were wet, not sure), but it doesnt bleed anywhere near as much as I expected. The color is vivid and iridescent. I'm impressed and might try the emerald now that I've been able to go bright without frying my hair or committing to permanent color.

Wow, I do not dye my hair and I love these colors to change things up and feel fresh. I have light brown hair and absolutely am so happy with the color that it came out. It’s really easy to use. I just apply the product in layers and then put a plastic shopping bag over my hair for 30 minutes to an hour and be very careful when you wash this product out if you have a white bathtub like I do it will stain a little bit, but I use a magic eraser scrub after I’m done rinsing my hair to clean up my bathtub. Make sure you don’t get this product on any white walls or any surfaces because it does stain just wipe it right away if it touches anything, but I love how my hair turned out and I will definitely be using this product again. It’s enough to dye my hair one time and to use touchups a few times as well, so the product will last you a long time and it is super colorful.

This hair color is insanely good. I have never strayed from my vegan Manic Panic. But this was worth straying for. However. This is not what I THOUGHT it was. But I think I was a little dumb. Basically, I had bought Rock the locks VERY TEMPORARY "conditioner hair mask depositing color" but the store sold out and are not restocking it. I decided I would look for another, typed in conditioner hair color depositing mask, and INH is the one that popped up. It DOES say it is conditioning, however, it is BY FAR not a temporary mask, which I would have figured out had I read it less quickly hahaha. Alicia: if it says semi permanent on the box, it is not a temporary color depositing mask. Hahahah. Anyway, it was a very pleasant mistake to make. I was using temporary color that sits on top of the hair instead of staining the hair follicle because I was trying to keep my natural brown underneath once this fades. I do not know if I will have a hair stain, purple hair stain almost never happens, so I will update this to report back on how it fades. But for right now, if I had put this color in on bleached blonde hair, my hair would be bright electric purple. I have several strands of grey hairs that are literally electric ultra violet purple. Since I did not bleach my hair, it turned out a gorgeous deep violet that pops like CRAZY in the sun. As with any dye: you NEED gloves. This color stains things HAAARD. You HAVE to rinse the dye out until you stop getting extremely dark dye colored water. After 15 rinses I simply gave up, but I clearly way overloaded my hair with dye, left it in a very long time since it's vegan (VEGAN IS PART OF WHY I BOUGHT IT. color deposits sooo much better if it's vegan and you can leave it in a looong time rather than 20 mins for a harsh box dye) and clearly needed more rinsing but my arms were just dead hahahah. So I am getting dye soaked hands and face and pillow case and clothing simply because my hair is still so dye soaked that it's transferring. However, I do believe that's avoidable by simply rinsing your hair longer than I did. My hair is about 3 feet long and 4 ounces of hair dye covers my whole head, however I have VERY thin hair, so take that as you will. The first couple showers you are going to maybe want to use gloves and wash your hair in a sink to avoid having to use rubbing alcohol to scrub color trails off your body and hands hahahah. But obviously that will lessen a LOT after the first couple showers once you get the dye properly fully rinsed. Just be aware that yes this dye is vegan, but it's still gonna stain clothing and yes you may need to use comet to clean your sink or shower after the first couple showers, but that's pretty normal for any dye really. Overall, 10/10 incredible color and seems like it's gonna last quite a long time. Very highly recommend. Pics show the color difference between sun and normal lighting and one pic of the color my hair was before I put the purple on and left it in maybe 4 hours in a shower cap. Very impressed :) I believe the color variance from the ends of my hair to the top of my head are due to having to continually squeeze the water out of my hair when showering, so I believe the ends are less dye soaked and therefore a bit if a lighter color. But it's kind of a neat gradient! My scalp clearly has more dye that needs rinsing compared to the ends due to the squeezing likely.

I bought both Emerald and Aquamarine and deeply enjoy them both. For reference, my hair is medium blonde-brown, down to my hips, and I dye about 10"/20 cm at the bottom on unbleached hair. I highly recommend both colours with the littlest caveat that they both lean a teeny bit more teal than the pictures show. (Which for me was excellent, but I also understand that some people are looking for pure green and pure blue. They're not, but they're probably as close as you'll get with how vibrant and jewel-toned they are.) These dyes are perfect for anyone who wants super rich jewel-toned greens and blues without bleaching or in-product lightening. I've gotten up to three weeks before the colour really begins to fade out even though I wash my hair every day (this may be different for you if your hair is short or you dye near the root). It doesn't smell bad and is easy to use. I just dip a dye brush into the container and layer it on strips of my hair, making sure to soak it thoroughly, then rinse it out in the sink with warm water until it runs clear. I usually also shower afterward, though I don't shampoo the dyed parts directly. For a few days afterward, I do get some light run-off in the tub (probably more due to the shampoo), but no transfer on my sheets, clothes or furniture. The package says to leave it on for about 45 minutes, but I let it set for an hour and a half just to be sure. I don't notice any irritation when it gets on my skin, and it washes off pretty easily. It will definitely stain if you get dye directly on cloth, though, so have an old towel ready. For anyone who wants a rich semi-permanent dye they can slap on their hair, leave to dry, then rinse and move on, this is the product for you. It's my go-to replacement now that I've run out of the semi-permanent Sephora Collection used to have and well worth the price.

This product so far is the best purple dye I have tried. I haven't done any washes yet but the initial vibrancy and the way it's really saturated my hair tells me this is a huge win. The only disadvantage, as with any strong colour like this, it stains. Be careful to use it around anything porous. I would recommend only washing it out with a handheld tap or shower head and not let it run down your body ideally. I was able to get it out of my white tiling in the shower and plastic drain by using a magic eraser. Anyways, I love that it doesn't use harsh chemicals and am super happy with the product. For the purple, it comes out exactly as pictured, and my hair wasn't blonde. I had medium brown with light purple tips. It's made the brown a super nice deep ultra violet and then my ends are like electric purple. Highly recommend 🥰 Update - I tried the red on my brown hair and it turned out just like the bottle!! I can't get over how odourless it is too in comparison to other dyes. It's awesome. Oh and somehow it didn't stain my scalp that bad either. The red didn't anyway ...I can't remember if the purple did or not. But yes sooooo good and I've tried a few different semi permanent brands. Definitely worth buying🩷

i don’t usually leave reviews but this dye ate down hard. gave me the exact colour i wanted and my skin wasn’t stained after rinsing in the shower. the jar is a little tiny but i used half of it for chest length hair. cant say much on how long it will last as I just used it. for reference I was a level 6-7ish blonde. my hair feels really great and soft since it’s a conditioning mask too. will be repurchasing when i run out as i plan to stay with this dye and colour for a long time

Amazing INH Hair Dye! This is honestly one of the best hair dyes I’ve ever used. The color turned out vibrant and even, and it didn’t dry out my hair at all. It’s easy to apply, lasts well, and it smells super good — way better than most dyes. I’m definitely buying this again! , is really hard to find the perdect shade of purple , I used to mix blue olor with purple so make a vibrant purple but now I don’t have to mix anything , cuz I found the perfect purple shade
