Advantages: Easy to appy, huge range of colours.

Disadvantages: Fades quickly, pricier than other hair dyes.

I've been cursed with dull brown hair, so I tend to colour it at home a lot as going to a hair salon each time can be expensive. As I'm always willing to try new brands I found this permanent colour to give good results. I tried a dark red and the result was similar to the colour on the box (which makes a change).

The instructions are simple, you only need to mix two bottles, apply it straight away, leave it for half an hour and rinse it out. It smells quite potent, but it doesn't sting like a lot of dyes do. I don't know if it's just me, but I found it took a lot of effort and time to rinse out the dye. But once you do, you apply the conditioner included in the pack which makes your hair feel and smell lovely.

The risk with dying your hair at home is that the colour can appear dull. This product made my hair shiny and it didn't look harsh. Unfortunately it faded quickly after a couple of weeks.

One tip before you apply the colour: smear Vaseline around your hairline otherwise you'll stain your skin!

Aimed at a younger market, this product has a huge variety of colours, to enhance your natural hair or give a dramatic look. At £6.99 it may be pricier than most hair colours but you do get a good result.
