Color X-Change Semi-Permanent Hair Color, MOOD OF BLUE

I have mid length hair, and this product came 3 times for my highlighted hair. It's semi permanent so it easly goes for 10 to 12 washes

I'm very pleased with this product, its a brilliant shade, easy to use and lasts forever. Very happy to recommend.

This review is for the plushy purple color only. Note that I am not a professional hairstylist and the actions I performed to attain my results are in no way guaranteed to work for others and try at own risk if you so decide. Now on to the review: this is an intense vibrant blue based purple. I have tried other semi-permenant brands, manic panic, and the color faded to almost gone after 2 washes (only washed my hair once a week and used dry shampoo paste to extend time between washes.) That was even after wrapping my hair in cling wrap and letting it sit over night! Now, this brand was a completely different experience. I followed the same procedure as with manic panic, cling wrap and sit overnight then rinsed with cold water and color safe shampoo (tressa watercolors gentle clean). After drying the color was incredibly vibrant! Maybe even a little more than I wanted but so beautiful. Truely like the color of a newly bloomed african violet flower. I have washed my hair several times since, in attempts to fade it, BUT it has retained it's vibrancy! Even after washing 3 times a week with warm water and head and shoulders shampoo...I am shocked it has lasted so long. Only now the color is starting to slightly fade into a blueish purple, but it is still vibrant. I wish there are more colors to choose from as I would eagerly try them. I did pre-lighten my hair before using this product. I thought that would effect the longevity, but NOPE! Highly recommend the purple if you want an intense blue based purple.

My hair was slightly blond and the color looks as if it was "teal" but I'm pretty satisfied cus it looks fantastic

This colour is great if you're wanting to permanently have your hair this colour, however, it faded to a really horrible colour and the only way to get it out would be to re-bleach it (I can't, I've already bleached it too much). It was initially pretty vibrant, not like any purple I've ever seen before. Good value for money, but it really is permanent.

The photos show the dye (mood of blue only applied on the bottom ends of my hair, pravana violet on the upper) as it fades naturally one week at a time. First photo is the day of, second photo is one week after, third photo is 2 weeks after. It doesn't last as long as Pravana. I previously have used direct dye Pravana Violet which turns more reddish purple on my light-brown bleached hair, but I wanted to make my hair or at least the bottom part of my hair less red and more blue tinted violet. I was able to easily achieve that with this Mood Of Blue color. However, it was a lot more of a greenish-blue on my hair, so I did have to actually mix half and half. Half of Pravana Violet, with half of this Mood of Blue, and it gave a nice rich violet/indigo color. Though it turned more blue than purple after washing it out, so that is something to look out for. I am still satisfied since it matches with one of my favorite dresses. But I will try next time to mix in more Pravana Violet, maybe 2/3 or 3/4. Really, my only wish is that it lasted longer. Normally I'm told that blue colors are supposed to stay longer on hair than reds, yet the more reddish purple stays on my hair much longer. Might be maybe Pravana is just more high quality? I don't know, but if you don't mind the shorter time to fade, or like me it's an easy-to-reach location you're dying, it's fine.
