Adore Semi Permanent Hair Color (039 Orange Blaze) | Vegan & Cruelty-Free Orange Hair Dye | No Ammonia, No Peroxide, No Alcohol | 4 Fl Oz

I LOVED ADORE RUBY RED. I HAVE DARK BROWN HAIR AND I DYED MY HAIR. I DID NOT EXPECT THE COLOR TO SHOW UP, BUT IT DID. MY ENDS WERE WINE RED. IT WORKED EVEN BETTER THAN I EXPECTED. APPARENTLY, IT DOES NOT SHOW UP ON BLACK HAIR BECAUSE MY SISTER HAS VERY BLACK HAIR AND IT DID NOT SHOW UPON HER HAIR, BUT IS REALLY GOOD FOR BROWN/ DARK BROWN HAIR. IT WAS WORTH THE MONEY. IT LASTED FOR ABOUT A MONTH.

Crimson is my new favorite red hair color. I've been dying my hair for over 20 years. For a long time, I did my own hair and used Punky Color and Manic Panic dyes. Then, for years, I had my hair professionally colored using mostly Special Effects dyes. I love the staying power of SE, but not the bleeding! Adore dyes have pretty good staying power, but only really bleed the first few times getting the hair wet. Now, I am growing it out and instead of spending $$$ on a pro, just keeping up my ends in color. The formula is pretty liquidy like Special Effects and unlike the gels of Punky Color and Manic Panic. This makes a little harder to apply, but not too bad since I am only really working on my ends. Even though my hair is nearly black, if I apply this dye to my roots I get a purply/burgundy sheen on the black parts. I spent a long time choosing a red color and looking at swatches online. Crimson was my first pick and I was very satisfied with the final result. Recently I also picked up Ruby Red and Raging Red to compare/contrast and also to dye some extensions with highlights and lowlights. Crimson is a deep red with pink undertones, but almost neutral when compared to other reds in the range. All three reds I have tested from Adore have cool undertones, but Raging Red is very very cool - I am hoping that the darkness hides a lot of the coolness. None have the very warm and orange undertones of PC/MP colors like Vermillion Red, Pillarbox Red and Wildfire. (I tend to prefer these warmer shades.) I've been doing my hair so long I forget that many people don't know how to get the most out of semi-permanent color (which actually is MORE permanent than permanent dye for me). Here are some tips: 1. Wash before you dye, with a harsh "clarifying" shampoo, or dish soap w/o hand softeners if your hair will tolerate and rinse with warm/hot water. WHY? - this opens up the cuticle where color can be deposited as well as strips out other color and junk. 2. Do not condition before you dye. WHY? - this will close/smooth the cuticle and you don't want to do that until after you color. 3. Apply dye, wrap in plastic to contain moisture and apply heat and leave on for WAY longer than directions say. WHY? - this helps penetrate more color deeper. You want to keep it wet and activated, bc once it's dry, that's pretty much it. (This only applied to semi-permanent non-developer dyes.) 4. Rinse in COLD or lukewarm water. WHY? - to smooth down the cuticle again and keep that color in! If you have ever had a Brazilian Keratin treatment, they do the same think when rinsing it out. 5. Condition only after dying. WHY? - to close/smooth down the cuticle and keep the color in. Personally, I don't protect my hairline with Vasaline because it makes more of a mess for me. I just swab off the color with rubbing alcohol. If you bathtub is stained, bleach and AJAX are your friend. I'll update this review when I dye the extensions. I am also going to mix Ruby and Raging and see if the color tuns out sorta like Crimson.

As the daughter of a master cosmetologist I've been dying my hair since I was 14 (15+ years experience). I've tried them all, punky color, manic panic, artic fox, joico, splat and more. I've vetted every product through my licensed cosmetologist mother and never got any kick back due to harmful ingredients or other factors. That being said, this is my new favorite brand for fun semi permanent colors at a reasonable price. I've used it on myself and my daughter (see pictures for break down). I wanted to try several colors from this brand prior to reviewing so that it would reflect a bigger range as some colors will last longer or process differently. I wanted more of a neon green for my first color and the green apple was not dark/neon enough for me so I decided to mix a bit of emerald in to achieve the color I wanted since I did not see the exact color I wanted in the colors available. My base color was a BRASSY dark blonde and my daughters was a less brassy brighter blonde, so my original fear was the cooler color neutralizing the brass more than it showing through. The first dye (green apple) on my hair was not bad. The color was good. The first dye on my daughter's hair (emerald) did somewhat come out dull from the brassyness (did not take a picture) but after a few days, I did a second coat and it came out as pictured. Each time we dyed, I used a brush/bowl application method and let it process for 1+ hr (because I'm busy and forgetful). Here are my thoughts: Pros: didn't stain my skin an insane amount when I had accidental drippage, color lasts more than 2 weeks (4+ washes), mixes well if you want to adjust color, covers well and pretty even depending on your base and your application, affordable, large range of colors Cons: it takes a lot of washing to fade I love the range of colors to choose from and I love being able to mix them and not end up with something muddy. I also love that it is pretty long lasting compared to other popular semi permanent colors (look up dye vs dye on YouTube). The only caviot to that is if you like to change colors often, it may be harder depending on which direction you go on the color wheel or if you only want color for a short amount of time like vacation or leave from work, this may not work for you. It also did not stain my daughter's hair when we did the blue and make it a horrible shade of green that we were unable to cover. So all together, I really love this brand of dye and will continue to buy as need (a little goes a long way) but it may not suit everyone.

Trop bon

Arrivé brisé.... Pas le top du bouchon. Mais j aime bien la couleurpar contre elle ne tient pas longtemps sur les cheveux blancs... 3 shampoing et c est très délavé disons. Mais c est un beau bleu. C est très rare car les bleus que j ai essayer auparavant donnait turquoise (trop de vert) pour être bleu...

Ich habe die Adore Luxe Blue zum Nachtönen der Ansätze und zur Auffrischung der Farbe zwischen zwei Friseurbesuchen verwendet. Sie hat unverdünnt auch die nicht gebleichten Ansätze gut abgedeckt und auch mit minimaler Menge in Mischung mit Conditioner die Farbe der langen Haare gut aufgefrischt. Vorher habe ich mit Directions experimentiert. Adore ist in meinen Augen benutzerfreundlicher, es färbt weniger die Badekeramik und die Haut als das bei Directions der Fall ist. Und bei mir hat sie gleichzeitig die Haare besser getönt.

Me gusto mucho el color, tiene buena pigmentacion, cubre canas.

I've used this colour and other colours too several times, love it!!! So quick and easy to use!!! And actually lasts longer than I expected!! Although be sure to give your shower a good clean afterwards otherwise it could look like a "blood-bath" lol
