Review title is Don’t waste your time or money. [SEP] It’s been roughly 2 weeks since I dyed my hair and the color is already super faded and patchy. The whole process to bleach, dye and final wash took me almost 4 hours, two boxes of product, one towel and now a blue bathroom sink. My hair did not get fully “hay blonde” that Splat suggests and that’s after using 2 bottles of bleach. I used 2 dark blue dye bottles and only one of the teal.<br />I waited over 48 hours before I did the first real wash and then have washed my hair every third day to try to preserve the color as long as possible and I can literally see it fading hard every shower and that’s using color safe products. I’m at the 2 week mark and my hair is now green and patchy with bleached hair showing through. I followed the box directions precisely and did everything I was supposed to. I even contacted Splat to get further tips and tricks on making it last and still it sucks. I understand this is an at home kit and I wasn’t really expecting too much from it considering all the reviews I read before hand but I expected more than this. Even the glove are too short in my opinion. They barely go to the beginning of my wrist which meant the dye was able to find its way under the gloves. This dye does truly dye anything it touches so cover literally everything before hand to prevent accidents. I was able to remove it from my skin using some baby oil and a towel so that’s easy but my sink is now blue.<br />There are further instructions that they should have stated on the box so beginners can get the most out of the box. Like wrapping your hair with a plastic bag or towel during the bleach process to hold on the heat and help with lifting color.<br />I fully understood what I was writing into when I purchased this. I read everything I could and watched every video I could find so I’m not judging this product on that factor. I gave it two stars because it took way too long and there’s too much maintenance to do to it to really equal out the lasting ability. I have to blow dry it every time I leave the shower or get it wet at all, meaning sweating or if it rains, because it will bleed hard.<br />I don’t recommend this if you’re looking for something even semi permanent because it’s not. I’d say if you’re looking for something for a couple weeks to go crazy or for a Halloween project but nothing more.
