Lunar Tides Semi-Permanent Hair Color (43 colors) (Fuchsia Pink, 8 fl. oz.)

This stuff blew my mind. I’ve used so many brands of semi permanent color and this one washed out completely clear! How??? No purple running in the shower it was mind blowing. The orchid purple appeared super bright in the jar. I have dark hair but my previous purple washed out and I had some slightly bleached highlights I wanted to turn purple again. I did a spot test on a small piece and left it in for 30 min. It was a much deeper purple than I expected and not bright at all. So I went for it and covered my head, opting to keep it in for an hour since it wasn’t touching my scalp and I wanted it to be deeper color than the test spot. Unless it fades super fast, I can’t imagine anything being better than this! It had no bad smell at all, and yes- there were purple dye marks on the towel I was resting my hair clips on while I added dye to sections of my hair carefully, but no kidding, once I washed it out ZERO color leakage. Where did it go??? The dye is thick so it’s best applied with a coloring brush in sections. I had to rinse really good because I couldn’t tell if it was still in my hair since all the water was running clear!!! Incredible sorcery. Truly magical.

Tried the Smokey Mauve color to see what would happen. I had a blonde streak in my hair that I knew would take and the rest of my hair was a gamble but I tried either way. Was hoping for a slight tint for my darker hair but it did not take. It did give me a nice purple streak, but it was definitely a bit brighter in color than I expected. Either way, easy to use dye :) Would definitely recommend. Also it came with a cute little sticker :)

One of the best red dyes I've ever used. Got the other prime colors and mixed up the whole rainbow. Have only used the red so far but very happy with how they mixed and excited to dye my hair for pride.

I may change my rating later. I LOVE the color. However it should be noted that I had to leave it in my hair for 2 hours before rinsing in order to actually get it to work (and cold water, whereas previous dyes worked and lasted even with warm water). We will see how long it lasts after the 2 hour attempt. I will try to update. If it lasts a while, I will probably update to 5 stars.

Cranbaby was THE EXACT color I envisioned: berry-colored, or cool reddish pink! One pass with the dye came out pretty even, but stained EVERYTHING I owned. My hoodie's hood was tinted pink. My neck was PINKKK for days because of the dampness after a fresh wash and friction from my hair. The collars of my shirts turned pink in the back.I didn't tone my hair, so I knew it would come out a little warmer. However, whenever I washed it, the dye would be an orange-red or hot pink.Now, after a few more washes, the original orange tone I had underneath is more visible. My goal was to use a cool-red in hopes it would balance out the warmth after a bleach bath (color theory, yk), but I feel like the base of this color isn't perfect for that.My biggest complaint is the SMELL it leaves on my hair. It smells so weird? It reminds me of stale hairspray on freshly ironed hair or something? I've tried other dyes and never had this issue. Speaking of which, my hair took well to other dyes like Arctic Fox, Unicorn Hair, and GDY. However, this didn't feel as conditioning to my hair.Overall a bit disappointed, but maybe this will be better for others! So sad it didn't work out.

I’ve used both orchid purple and neon dragonfruit. I absolutely love how bright and vibrant both colors were. For upkeep I just used a color depositing shampoo then I wouldn’t need to redye it a lot.

I was so excited to use this product after a friend had recommended it. As a true 90s babe, I started with Punky color, back then it was the most pigmented dye to use besides koolaid. I had been dying my hair for about 15ish years. Then took a huge hiatus. Fast forward.. I bleached to a blonde, used a toner for reference as my starting color. The results color chart showed it would still be smokey, it wasn’t. It ended up being a magenta color. The color was really vibrant but not the same shade at all. Consistency was more of a gloss than creamy. I used half the jar for 2 small sections. Bummed it feels like a waste of money since the color wasn’t Smokey orMauve ish at all. I ended up using a clarifying shampoo to get most of the color out, then a mix of 3 artic fox colors to get a closer match. I really wanted this color to work! With all the new companies & advancements made since the 90s, I was really hoping this color would take. Insert sad face here. Wish I would have taken a pic before changing the color.

Beautiful color, but sadly did not stick to my dark brown hair. Would be better suited to lighter colors. Still recommend, as my hair felt magnificent after use
