Not good – as per most other reviews I read after discovering this product did not work at all to cover my greys... Show details
Absolute Rubbish – My 10 year old son had been at me all year to dye his blue like Dan TDM so for a surprise at Xmas I granted his wish! What a complete let down when it came to washing out & drying to find it was all patchy & definitely not blue! My son has sandy blond hair & a short mullet so going by the instructions this was guaranteed to work! Very false advertising & misleading & should never be sold to the public! Show details
No results – Applied to my daughter as it’s summer holidays and went to wash out at instructed time. It completely washed out. The only things it dyed was my hands, my towel and my bath Show details
Not recommended – It’s not staying at all once you wash you after applying the Color all colour washed out back to your natural hair , waste of money . Show details
ELECTRIC BLUE MADE ME FEEL BLUE – Looked awesome on my light hair when applied. I left it for an hour before rinsing, 30 mins longer than required. Totally washed out first wash. Really disappointed. Show details
It's waste of money, don't buy it – I got less hair volume, I applied evenly one whole tube and left it on for 30 mins but my hair colour is exactly the same as before. I could not find a bit of difference after using this dye. It's highly no recommended. Yeah, my skin is blue and my bathtub too. So, it stained everything blue except my hairs. Show details
Don’t bother, doesn’t work – I can’t believe they are still aloud to sell this Used on 2 different people with natural light blonde hair… washed out completely after 30 mins with not a trace of blue Save your money and get something else Show details
It works on grey hair!! – I didn't think it would work as I'm grey all over but it was cheap so I bought it anyway. Left it in for half an hour and it worked. Not too brazen as it would be on a blond, just enough for some funky pastel highlights. Show details
Devastated by the horrible results – I colour my hair once every few months, decided to go with a bright electric blue. Had the choice between pastel blue and electric blue, I HATE pastel colours in general so I really don't want it in my hair. So I used 4x packs on my shoulder length hair, making sure that every single strand of hair was well and truly covered. Followed all… Read more
instructions to the letter, rinsed it out with warm water after 35 minutes. Well....I didn't expect much effect to the back of my head (medium brown) but fully expected to have my naturally grey hairs come out as bright, in your face electric blue. Instead, no change to the brown hair, and very pale and patchy colour to the Grey's.
NOT HAPPY I am stuck with an UGLY shade of light pastel blue which looks absolutely disgusting and like I tried using magic silver blue (probably would have been a better result). The result is so horrible and devastating that I refuse to be seen without a beanie to cover this horror show because the thought of anyone seeing this epic product failure actually makes me cry.
First time I've had a dye that failed to dye my hair, but happily dyes everything else it comes into contact with.
Did absolutely nothing – Bought 2 Pack's and the 1st one didn't take.. Tried the 2nd pack and left it on for over 35 minutes. Absolutely waste of my money.. Only thing that dyed is my bath Show details
does a great job at dyeing skin and completely missing every hair – doesn’t work at all but it stains everything other than my hair. i’m actually so upset i really was looking forward to blue hair. don’t use this save ur money Show details
Didn’t work! Useless – Tried this on my sons hair, his natural colour is blonde and it literally did nothing, it washed straight out. Followed the instructions to the letter. He is so disappointed Would give zero stars if I could Show details
Terrible! Doesn’t stay on the hair – My daughter has natural blonde hair. I followed the instructions to the letter, left it in her hair for 30 minutes and tiny bits of her hair were dyed blue the rest washed out when it was rinsed Show details

Great if you don't ever want your natural colour back – This dye looks great for the first 3 washes. Bright, vibrant and fresh. BUT after 8 WEEKS I still have a pale blue/green colour left over. It hasn't washed out at all, it's left a gross, dirty water colour in my hair. Show details
Last longer then 8 washes – I used the electric blue and pastel blue 8 washes on my platinum blonde hair and Ive washed it 2-3 times a week for over 2 months already and it faded but still very blue and i have over an inch in regrowth and the blue just won't come out and ideas without using bleach im just over the colour now and want it back to the way it was????? Show details
Best ever blue dye – I have very blonde curly hair and dye about 8 inches of the bottom length. This colour stays in my hair for at least 8 weeks with twice weekly washes. The colour gradually fades to a beautiful pastel after this time. There wasn't any colour run or staining.
One of the best colours I have used – I have been dying my hair for over 10 years now. I did bleach before the blue but i have never had any colour last as well as this blue. This blue has been in for over a month with minimum of 1 wash per week and is still very vibrant. Very impressed with this colour and would not change at all.
Review only for ‘electric blue’ – I have used several of these cheap temporary colours with great results but this one not so much. It is more green than blue. And not even a pretty shade of green. I will be washing my hair more than usual to get rid of it. I should add, I have brown hair with blonde highlights.
Disappointed – I have honey coloured brown hair that reaches the end of my chest. For a very long time I've wanted to dye my hair a crazy colour, but my school doesn't allow it. During the summer holidays I decided to die it a dark blue temporarily. It took 3 boxes and 1 hour to die my hair, and it still turned out patchey. Despite the effort and time I… Read more
fell love with the colour. It was a cool dark blue. I rinsed it just as the box told me, but did not wash it in fear that it would lose it's colour.
Two days later I went to the beach. I did all I could to save the colour. I tied it in a bun, and wet it with fresh water first so the salt wouldn't cling as much.
When I got home, I washed my hair, got out of the shower, and saw that the blue was gone! 80% of my hair had gone back to the orignal colour. The tips of my hair were light blue. I'm so disappointed! The hair colour was my dream colour and it only lasted two days! Never again
DOES NOT WORK – I tried this product to turn my son's hair blue for Crazy Hair day at school understanding that it would wash out in 8 washes and school holidays was starting the next day...all it did was turn his scalp blue in patches and the rest washed out completely...not even a hint of blue in his hair...terrible product...DO NOT USE.
Horrible. Tried multiple times – I've tried the purple pastel, electric blue, silver toner and bright purple. Packet size pathetic and coverage patchy even when multiple packets used and hair soaked with product. Save your money and use a fudge.
Never going to come out – In December for some fun i used the electric blue in my hair..i have lightened brown hair..i was aware it would take more the 8 washes..it is now February...my hairdresser cannot remove it and it is just going to have to grow out..the bizarre thing is the lightened parts of my hair are almost fine now but my natural brown hair us still blue. Would never recommend this to anyone and warn people when i see them reaching for it!
Good if you want just your roots dyed haha – Had my hair bleached by the hair dresser today so it was white. Applied 5 packets of the pastel blue to make sure we had enough coverage even though my hair is only chin length and my hair turned pastel at the roots and swamp green at the ends. It was awful. Thankfully it bleached out. Thought it would be good to see if I actually wanted my hair… Read more
blue before buying a more expensive brand since it is available in the supermarket. Alas it was not. Would not recommend and will never buy again.
