Semi-Permanent Ruby Rouge Hair Dye

Highly rate this stuff! I have avoided reds for a while and opted for more browns and highlights, but missed the red. Sadly my last few red attempts have faded quite quickly as my hair needs TLC. This stuff has been a godsend! The sun hits it and it reflects such vibrancy but there are varying tones throughout so it hasn’t been a heavy blanket dye. Yes it does fade but it isn’t permanent and it’s a great way to refresh between dye jobs without further ruining the hair. The downsides are it does stain skin! It does come off with a good scrub mind, but wear gloves if you can. Also it does have a weird smell. Not something that lingers on the hair afterwards but at the time it’s pretty funky. Transfer to towels and bedding etc as expected but so far hasn’t been permanent and comes out in a wash. I’m thinking of mixing into conditioner for a dye deposit hair mask, perhaps make it go a bit further and lessen the stained skin!

Crazy Color’s Vibrant Capri Blue is exactly what it promises. The colour comes out bold and bright, and it grabs onto pre lightened hair really well. It spreads easily, doesn’t drip much and rinses out cleaner than a lot of other semi-permanent dyes. The shade itself is a strong electric blue that looks great in daylight. It does fade over a couple of weeks, but it fades evenly, not patchy. It also leaves the hair feeling soft rather than dry, which is a nice surprise for a budget dye. If you’re after a standout blue that’s easy to apply and gives instant impact, this one does the job

This hair dye is seriously pigmented - the colour payoff is amazing and lasts way longer than many other brands I’ve used over the years! I also only needed one bottle to cover my entire head thoroughly (I have thick mid length hair), when I always need 2 or 3 bottles from other brands. The only downside is that it’s extremely difficult to rinse out - even after 20+ minutes, the water was still running bright pink! It did stain my pillowcase and even got through a Vaseline barrier to stain my skin. That being said, the results are definitely worth the minor hassle, and I’ll definitely be sticking with this brand going forward.

Exactly the colour I wanted - a soft, rosy copper hue to refresh my toner I had done a few months ago. Do note I had my hair bleached (not highlighted) from a natural level 8 to a 9/10 first (trust me it is under there), it won’t work to its full potential on unlightened hair. I applied it to damp hair (helps with the spreading of the product) and washed out after 15 minutes. There followed three weeks (so far) of unbearably itchy, dry scalp and dandruff that is only getting slightly better each wash as I’m using a tea tree scalp serum to calm it. I am usually allergic to permanent hair dye that contains PPD - this DOES NOT contain PPD but obviously something in it doesn’t agree with me. I did not do a patch test because I am usually fine with direct vegetable dyes like this. Unfortunately I cannot use it again but I can say it produces a gorgeous colour that lasts a couple of washes all told, but please please test it on your skin first.

I used Crazy Color Vibrant Ruby Rouge mixed with Vibrant Vermillion Red, and the result is absolutely stunning! 70% Ruby 30% vermillion on my roots and brushed down as root smudge. 80% Vermillion 20% Ruby on my lengths and tips. My hair before was a light warm coppery orange, and I wanted that deep, rich, eye-catching red. I applied the dyes straight onto my pre-lightened base (no extra bleaching this time), and the transformation is incredible. The color came out so bold and vibrant—intense in daylight and still beautifully rich indoors. It covered evenly, gave my hair amazing shine, and the red just glows without looking flat. Honestly, I couldn’t be happier. If you want a true “wow” red that turns heads, this mix is perfection. I’m completely obsessed with the result! BUT! Be careful when you apply it, it will stain anything. And it will strain your skin so be careful, if it stains your skin, soap wash the skin twice and it's gone.

Great vibrant colour. Even works on darker hair. Used on my daughter for the summer holiday and lasted.

I got the whole set of colours and the blues and greens are the only ones that actually work , it’s a very subtle colour - like an ice blue . Overall happy with the way it turned out .

Disappointed with results but can see a slight change in some of my hair. Nice texture and smell
