Oh, My!

Let me say this loud and clear... I HATED THIS PRODUCT THE FIRST THREE WEEKS AFTER DYING! But, then, I was born again into this fabulous land of color and all was well... sort of. I used Flamingo Pink in hopes of getting something resembling... well... the color pink. Not so much. (Thus my initial distaste for this product.) It grew on me, though, and by week four I was loving it. Everything they tell you is true: it spells WAY better than that ammonia STENCH other products give off, it turns your bathroom into a crime scene, and you will be pink to the elbows without proper protection! (Words of advice: TAPE UP YOUR HAIR LINE, WEAR GLOVES TO YOUR SHOULDERS, and GET SOME DARN NAIL POLISH REMOVER... you'll be rubbing it into EVERYTHING.) There really is no easy or neat way to do it... slab it on your head and hope for the best. Oh, yes, I almost forgot! The first picture is about a month after dying... still strong and vibrant as ever. The second picture is about three months after, slowly returning to the brassy orange bleach stage I had pre-dye. Overall, I'm happy with it... but it's not PINK, you know? More like... Lacey from Rock of Love meets a little Jstar...

Excellect product! I love it. I ONLY buy this brand. I tried buying other hair dyes such as Maniac Panic dye, and other brands, none of those last long on my hair, maybe a day, one wash, but once I found punky colour, reds, vermillion red, I only buy punky, because the dye lasts atleast 8 washes for me, it may be longer for other hair textures, and thats alot. I bought $30 bucks worth because I love it so much.

I had ordered the color Flame which looked to me on the website to be a shade of deep red, but when it arrived, the contents of the jar was clearly orange. However, the shipment and return policy was exceptional.
Pretty on hair, but BEWARE...

I purchased the Poppy Red and Flamingo Pink with red and pink stripped intentions for Valentine's Day. My hair is previously bleached dyed back darker brown. My stripes did not turn out as hoped, but had an interesting effect anyways (I did not bleach out again before applying). The pink was not as intense as the red, but both had a very pretty highlighting effect. The application was relatively easy (I used a tint brush the first time, gloved fingers the second), and the wait time/washout time was not too bad. My only issue with this product is the fact that, although it is a temporary washout color, BEWARE! My skin (on my fingers, face, ears, neck, and everything else that got wet in the shower during the washout process) became a sunburn tint of pink. This was not too bad the first time I colored, but the second application has left the pink tinted skin for about a week now and has tinted a couple of shirt collars (fortunatly they were not my favorite shirts). Even though the water ran clear during the washout, the dye is continuing to rub off my skin and run out of my hair little by little and I'm still waiting to return to normal. My shower is also still quite pink from my first application on Feb. 13, but is cleaning off slowly. I would probably purchase this product again, but would definately experiment with other products first. The color variety is great and the price is right. Just be sure to rinse out VERY WELL before assuming it is o.k. to put on your favorite white shirt! (Another possibility would be to bring it to a salon and have it professionaly applied.)

This dye is the best one I have used to dye my hair purple. I had tried 5 times before to get the bright purple I wanted and failed miserably, this stuff was easy and it came out a very nice shade of purple. Thank you!
My favorite color is PLUM.
Punky Colour

I love the punky violet #1428. I get compliments on my hair all the time. It even colors grey! I am pleased with the ease of the application. The first time I used the semi-perminent color I bleached the hair I wanted to color. But, after that I have been able to just put it on all the way to the scalp and it covers.
I only have one negative thing to say about Punky Colours, and that is the purple #1448 is really not purple in color when you put it on. It is more of a fuchsia (red/brite pink). The violet #1428 is right on.
I would like to return the purple #1448 and exchange it for violet #1428 if at all possible.
Thanks Purple Susan
I won't use anything else!

I've used so many other dyes before and they all have alcohol in them and dry my hair to poop and my hair is dry enough but now that I've finally found somewhere I can get more than just the reds greens and blues I won't use anything else Punky is the best N'rage and Manic Panic don't last nearly as long and are bad on my hair I won't use anything else I've been using punky since I was 16. . . so for 4 years now! I love it!

I personally use Flamingo Pink punky color on my bleached hair all the time. I have also used a lot of the other colors on my family and friends. This stuff rocks and works super well on bleached hair. It does not highlight like it says on darker hair. You really need to have bleached blonde hair for it to work right. I love this stuff and reccomend it over other more expensive brands that I've used.
