Violet Semi Permanent Hair Color – Vegan, Cruelty-Free Conditioning Violet Hair Dye for Bleached & Pre-Lightened Hairs Lasts 35 Washes, 3.5 fl oz

Amazing and very vivid color. There's no weird smell, the smell actually reminds me of grape. Did not stain my skin, or tub. I actually dropped a lot on my sink, bathroom floor and door for under the sink. Was very easy to wipe off and didn't leave behind anything permanent. I slept on my white pillowcase with my hair damp, and it did not ruin it. The jar is a bit small which is my only complaint. Have yet to see how fast the color fades over time.

I got the Punky Color dye in the shade Violet. The first pic is where i started, second is after bleach to show how light it was, and the rest are after dying it purple in a few different lightings. I chose this dye as it was pretty cheap, with decent reviews, and a cool toned purple. I started this journey wanting lavender hair, which I eventually semi-ditched as I came to realize that not only would it be hard to achieve well but also would not last me very long. Sooo.... I altered what i wanted for a cool-toned purple so it would eventually fade to a lighter purple color (instead of a warm-toned purple that would fade to more of a pink). It stuck really well to my bleached hair. I did dye my non-bleached eyebrows with it (which I was terrified to do as I had heard of this dye staining from other reviews) and it did not hold really at all, which I knew it wouldn't be a lot of color even if it did. I kind of just figured I would use the last bit of dye to see if it would tint my eyebrows enough to tie the look together. That being said, I wouldn't recommend to use this on dark hair. Although I toned my hair, I do think my hair was still a little warm toned (probably because either my hair was too wet when I applied the toner or because my hair wasn't light enough). That being said, despite that, my hair came out a very vivid cool-toned (for the most part) purple. It does look pretty warm-toned in warm lighting. It's been about two weeks now and it hasn't faded at all which I'm pretty happy with. It did kind of stain when rinsing, but it surprisingly did little damage to the tub. I rinsed the dye off by tipping my head over the tub and rinsing under the faucet. So I would say as long as the water is running or you can wipe any outlying spots quickly that I wouldn't worry. However I found that a little bleach easily wiped any bits that did stain off. Head and shoulders also did wonders when taking the dye off my eyebrows. That being said, despite not bleeding for a handful of days directly afterwards, it did start bleeding randomly on day #4 or 5, but stopped again after I washed my hair again. So, I wouldn't worry about that much either- just something look out for. My nails however are still purple lol. I definitely would recommend this dye.

Works well, smells good, doesn’t damage hair, beautiful color.

If you're looking for vibrant color, this stuff gives just that. Keep in mind that I had grown out highlights where I wanted to pick up the color, and I left it on for 30 minutes just to be safe. where my hair was dark, it just made my hair look darker but not purple. My end game is to hopefully have it wash out to a pastel purple, but the dark purple was actually really pretty. The smell wasn't bad. It had a hint of grape scent to it. The actual mess though....let me give you the details. First, make SURE you put lotion or vaseline around your forehead, ears, and neck. It states it in the directions, but be sure you don't skip that. It will dye your skin temporarily. Also, make sure to wear gloves while applying (AND WASHING the 1st rinse....I made that mistake). Be prepared to scrub your tub. I think I used 4 different cleaning products to clean my tub after rinsing my hair. It stained the tub on the 2nd wash, too. Don't worry, it's clean now! The 3rd wasn't bad and stopped staining at that point. Also, use an old towel to dry your hair just to be safe until there is no color left. If you're willing to risk the clean up, I say this is the best bang for your buck with an awesome result. Can you use shampoo on the first rinse? I recommend it, but that's just me. I just rinsed with water at first, but I felt like I still had some residue, so I washed with my shampoo. (1st picture=1st wash, 4th picture = 3rd wash, 5th picture = 5th wash). The color was still vibrant. After 5 washes (last picture) it has faded a little. I wash my hair every 3-4 days, and I use a natural shampoo bar (not sure if that helps retain the color). Punky color states it will last up to 35 washes but will fade with every wash. So far, I'm happy with the results, the fading, and it seems like others are really happy with it, too!

I tried Punky Violet Semi-Permanent Hair Color, and honestly, the color is gorgeous. It gives a bold purple/violet tone that really pops, especially on lighter or pre-lightened hair. The formula is easy to apply, doesn’t feel harsh, and left my hair feeling softer than I expected. Like most semi-permanent colors, the final result depends a lot on your starting hair color. If your hair is darker, you may get more of a tint than a bright violet. On lighter hair, though, it shows up beautifully. It does fade over time, but the fade is pretty and doesn’t look muddy. A little tip: wear gloves, protect your sink and counters, and use an old towel unless you enjoy accidental purple home décor. Cute in theory, annoying in real life. Overall, I’d recommend it if you want a fun, bold purple without committing to permanent color. #PunkyColour #PunkyViolet #SemiPermanentHairColor #PurpleHair #HairColorReview

It's decent semi permanent color but it literally washed out after 4 hair washes under cold water...it's supposed to last for at least 20 shampoos, higher end being around 30. So I am a bit disappointed, the color however is very nice

i was originally planning on buying another brand of dye but after having bought punky color’s color depositing shampoo twice, i had enough trust that the actual dye would be great. i noticed a kind of a thick consistency but was easily fixed with a little bit of conditioner mixed in. smells super good (grape scented) and application was super easy! i had a decently light base but it was definitely nowhere near blonde or light blonde and the color is still pretty vibrant. people mentioned staining so i was a bit worried but dishsoap and a sponge got any dye off surfaces, and if the stain is fresh, water and a napkin will do. instructions say to use vaseline to prevent staining but it really wasnt necessary as i wiped off any excess dye from my forehead or neck and then when i washed it out the remainder came off. it stained my hands a little while i was styling my hair but after washing my hands twice it fully came off. i recommend washing the dye out in a sink anyway just to make sure you dont stain your bathroom. great color will be buying again once it fades! :)

Great price! Perfect shade! Long lasting! My go to vibrant color!

I have textured hair, so the photos reflect various stages of that over a few days. It's pretty alright. I used to use this stuff as a punk rock teenager. The packaging is different. The container is smaller. It costs more. As it goes. Huzzah capitalism. The colour for this is definitely more of what was originally the plum colour. Which is good because that's what I wanted, and this one used to be much bluer and lighter. So far the punky color lives up to the standards and memories of my youth. I've had minimal colour loss (that might in part be because of the shampoo and conditioner I use? But idk). I like this too because a little goes a long way. That being said I have shorter hair, but I'll be getting at least another 1.5 uses out of it. I guess my one real drawback is that it smells more chemically than it used to. It used to strictly smell like those fruity smelly markers that kids get. While that smell is still there it's definitely overpowered by chemicals. My friend is a hairdresser and dyed my hair a similar colour and the colour basically completely washed out after a few weeks. Even when I was just doing water rinses. It never reallh permeated my hair, despite bleaching. I brushed my hair out and put coconut oil around my edges, ears and on my neck (vaseline also works), added colour from root to tip with dry hair. I let it sit for 30 minutes. I'm super happy with it. My hairdresser friend is ticked off that it works as well as it does lol.

Very pigmented been almost 3 weeks and it has barely faded

I love wacky colours on my head and I have gone Burgundy to red to orange to candy pink and eventually violet. And I feel violet is here to stay. I have been using Paradyes on pre-bleached hair and so far had no complain but for the fact that it washes away very fast. Like 8 to 10 washes.Hence I came to amazon looking for something that lasts a little longer. And oh man the feedback on this blew my mind, local and global. Thus is decided to try this. However, there is one thing that scared me was the part where almost everyone said that Pinky, stains everything! I was quite worried that I might look like smurf by the time im done washing it off. So, I got my best ammunitions at hand to combat that. And Viola! I dont look like Smurf ! This is what I did....okay one another thing before that...the consistency on this is very thick and gel like and its super pigmented. But its a 100% non drip. And I used the color direct from bottle with no additives.Now getting into how I achieved a headful of violet without staining. Tools list : Surgical Gloves - 1 pair( available in drug stores, by the way they are gradient blue now ) Coconut Oil A Black Towel Before I started with the colouring process, I smeared coconut oil all over me .....face, ears, neck (front and back), shoulder and the full length of my arms. Once done wore the gloves and dipped my fingers into the jar of violet. Once done with the color on my head, I washed out the gloves and waited like a little more than an hour. When it came to showering, once again I took help from the coconut oil....smeared my whole body with a lot of it starting from face to the tip of my ttap. to the extent that it looked like I took a dip in a barrel of oil. Put on the gloves, again and went in for the wash. Instead of the shower, I used the tap. I hung my head in the cold water ( its important that the water is cold when we wash semi-permanent colours, hot water opens up hair cuticles thus bleeding out the color molecules ), and massaged away the color with my fingers till the water ran clear ( and I have no stains on the bathroom floor neither on anything with is white or of a lighter colour ) and kept the water running till all the color washed out of the bathroom tiles ( I turned on the hot water while at this ). While tge water worked on the floor I rinsed my hair with the black towel and used a color protect conditioner on my hair. While the conditioner sat, I used a warm.shower and a shower gel to wash off the oil from my body ( coconut oil is very hyd rating and even after a warm shower, my skin was soft and supple with no dryness at all ). Once, done with that I turned on the cold shower and washed the conditioner out. It was a bit tedious process and required a bit of extra cautios prep, but its worth the trouble. Im not blue, my bathroom is not blue and I dont look like smurf ! The color turn out is amazing, I had to wait out the night for my hair to dry up just so that I could take a picture in natural light. While under the light ( white light / tube ) the color outputs a blue shine, in natural light ( sun )it throws up a vibrant purple shade ( little darker than the catalogue color violet ) but thats what I wanted and im so loving the result. Hair feels amazingly soft and loved. I just cant keep my hands off them 😂😂😂 Few things to note: Im not worried about the bleeding post color, all semi permanent colors bleed Pre-lightening is the key to get the correct color output and vibrancy any semi permanent color has to offer Also hair health is very important, after bleach and color, hair care routine should be packed with a good purple / blue shampoo to tone the underlying brassy tones ( yellow/orange/reddish untertones ) Color protect shampoo and conditioner is a must. I have added some violet / purple dye to the conditioner since I went purple head a month or two back. This helps restore the vibrancy of the color while you condition the hair. Optional is to get a color deposit shampoo, which I intend to get Do not wash your hair for 72 hours from time you have colored your hair, that's the amount of time it takes for the color to settledown in the hair cuticles Always wash your hair with cold water ( hot water rinses out more color as it opens the hair cuticles ) Keep heat styling to minimum ( same reason as hot water ). Instead try to use non heat methods to style like a good after wash gel...I use Fix My Curls - Curl Quenching Jelly ( I have straight hair however this jelly works better than most other hair gel ). Because this is created to hold curls ( which is very hard to set other wise), the formula once applied to rinsed hair, upon styling, works great in holding straight hair for atleast a couple of days before you wash it again Invest in a good dry shampoo, it cleanses and adds volume to the hair without affecting the color as opposed to a wet wash Incase you have to heat style, invest in a good heat protect serum or spray Hope this helps !

マ◯ックパニックよりも発色が良く、色持ちもいいです 薄い色でなければ茶髪にもしっかり色が入ります！

It had a stronger pigment than inspected, because of that I was able to use it with a bit of hair conditioner and still have a good color, thumbs up
