SPLAT HAIR COLOR MIDNT INDIGO

The dye works well but it leaves some stains

TERRIBLE. The dye goes EVERYWHERE. It stained my bathtub bright blue and had to try and use baking soda to scrub it off, it did a little but still blue. My skin is going to be blue for awhile and I’m scared to shower next time for I know the bathtub will be blue again.

My hair is naturally dark with grey throughout. It's non porous and fast drying and tends to pick up most colours and brands easily. I know now why they call this Splat. It's a generous amount of colour but extremely liquid. I lined my floor with card board boxes and plastic underneath just in case. It stained my forehead and scalp pretty bad. I sure it will take about a week to come off entirely. The colour I used was an amethyst and not a blue. It shows up more blue in the photo than it is. Overall I'm pleased with the results. I was going darker from a vibrant plum colour. Note of caution, other than the staining prepare for this to be a colour that doesn't come out. I've seen a lot of videos that show it's almost impossible to lift. I was committed to this shade. Another plus of this product is that it didn't have any developer so my hair doesn't feel damaged. Lastly, if you have a laundry sink, wash it off in there.

Firstly, I want to give detailed information for my experience with this product. Well, I know it will definitely color light color hair blue. I’m African American with natural brown/black hair color. Additionally, I have “loc’ed” my natural hair AND added loc extensions. sometimes with Locs it can take awhile for color to process. Additionally, since I have human hair loc extensions sometimes it may contains artificial fibers which can resist color. I wanted to point this out as the the process I endured. I placed the color on with gloves in sections. I followed the directions specifically until it was time to rinse. I opted to use the shower and honestly I’m glad I did. It took FOREVER for the color to rinse out. The color as some advised in other reviews reported it gets EVERYWHERE. I put a protective barrier on my forehead, hairline, ears, shoulders (I had on a tube top dress due to the length of my hair), ears, etc. It’s easy to remove from skin with 70% alcohol. The rinsing took over 45 minutes. This is why I mentioned my hair in the beginning. Can’t say if it was due to the high pigment of the product or locs. Then I shampooed with sulfate free shampoo and the blue came out again even more. I shampooed for 2.5 washes and it kept pulling color out. I did not use an entire bottle. I used approximately half. I have gray pieces I added to my hair and that color took perfectly. I can say for me, I see darker hair after the application. Not blue, but black. I was hoping for a dark blue/black color (black with blue tones in the sunlight) but I did not get that affect. I used ZEP for my shower and raised areas as I was working and isolated myself to the drain area as I was rinsing. I gave it 3 stars as I have never had something this pigmented stain items so badly, but can stain hair the same.

The colour is poppin' on me. It's meant for dark hair and it works well. I wouldn't use it on hair darker than a light brown though as the darker your hair the less the colour will show, as should be expected. It's highly staining so I would suggest wearing gloves right through till it's completely rinsed to avoid looking like a Smurf. I will definitely consider this product again.

Shows up in the light on my jet black hair. I left it on for a few hours. I love it altho put Vaseline or cover any areas you don't want blue bc it is messy. I'm happy with it. Smells good and makes my hair feel soft.
