SPLAT HAIR COLOR MIDNT INDIGO

The dye works well but it leaves some stains

My hair is naturally dark with grey throughout. It's non porous and fast drying and tends to pick up most colours and brands easily. I know now why they call this Splat. It's a generous amount of colour but extremely liquid. I lined my floor with card board boxes and plastic underneath just in case. It stained my forehead and scalp pretty bad. I sure it will take about a week to come off entirely. The colour I used was an amethyst and not a blue. It shows up more blue in the photo than it is. Overall I'm pleased with the results. I was going darker from a vibrant plum colour. Note of caution, other than the staining prepare for this to be a colour that doesn't come out. I've seen a lot of videos that show it's almost impossible to lift. I was committed to this shade. Another plus of this product is that it didn't have any developer so my hair doesn't feel damaged. Lastly, if you have a laundry sink, wash it off in there.

Splat dye deposits the color extremely well. It lasts for ages. It didn't fade for 5 months. But it dries out your hair really badly. Leaving it extremely brittle. I tried to make up for it with lots of hair masks and leave in treatments but nothing really can undo that kind of damage. But yes. The color lasts forever. Literally forever. Take that as you will.

Fun color, although more of a tint than a true color. I expected that though. I hope it lasts because I am not eager to dye my hair again any time soon. EVERYTHING is blue right now. The tub, sink, floor, towels, hands etc. I'm sweating blue at the moment. It's a thin drippy dye that reminds me of excess indigo from jeans. I hate to give poor reviews but I don't think I will use this dye again.

I love Splat. I had previouslydone a Brazilian Keratin treatment and my hair is thriving. So as most of us hair coloured enthusiasts tend to do…I bought this Midnight Indigo Blue and the different shades I got thrilled my soul. It’s beautiful. Especially when I step out into the sun. My gray hair picked up the color, very intensely, not disappointed. I love the different shades of blue that I got in there even after doing a keratin treatment that had already lightened my hair. I thought why not let’s see what the gray hairs will do the darker parts of my hair, so I’m quite content with this as a person who home dyes their hair. It’s not something to rush as it does stain and it stains solid. Maybe it’s just my type of hair, but I appreciate how there was no mixing involved from start to finish. I purchased a conditioning cap and left the dye in for 45 minutes to an hour and rinsed it several times until the water came out light blue then I did a light wash with a shampoo that’s conditioning but doesn’t leave too much residue and this looks really well. So once it starts to fade, I’m gonna do a keratin treatment to see what happens and purchase again. I am quite happy with this. You have to take note of the initial colouring of your hair. If you’re not going to bleach it, you have to factor in what applying a hair dye is going to do without a lightening agent. I’m very happy with Splat. My last picture is of my hair in it’s unstyled state, several days after using Splat. Still love it.

Firstly, I want to give detailed information for my experience with this product. Well, I know it will definitely color light color hair blue. I’m African American with natural brown/black hair color. Additionally, I have “loc’ed” my natural hair AND added loc extensions. sometimes with Locs it can take awhile for color to process. Additionally, since I have human hair loc extensions sometimes it may contains artificial fibers which can resist color. I wanted to point this out as the the process I endured. I placed the color on with gloves in sections. I followed the directions specifically until it was time to rinse. I opted to use the shower and honestly I’m glad I did. It took FOREVER for the color to rinse out. The color as some advised in other reviews reported it gets EVERYWHERE. I put a protective barrier on my forehead, hairline, ears, shoulders (I had on a tube top dress due to the length of my hair), ears, etc. It’s easy to remove from skin with 70% alcohol. The rinsing took over 45 minutes. This is why I mentioned my hair in the beginning. Can’t say if it was due to the high pigment of the product or locs. Then I shampooed with sulfate free shampoo and the blue came out again even more. I shampooed for 2.5 washes and it kept pulling color out. I did not use an entire bottle. I used approximately half. I have gray pieces I added to my hair and that color took perfectly. I can say for me, I see darker hair after the application. Not blue, but black. I was hoping for a dark blue/black color (black with blue tones in the sunlight) but I did not get that affect. I used ZEP for my shower and raised areas as I was working and isolated myself to the drain area as I was rinsing. I gave it 3 stars as I have never had something this pigmented stain items so badly, but can stain hair the same.
