Stargazer hair dyes!

Subject: Stargazer hair dyes! Thu Jun 05, 2008 9:40 pm

Oooookay so today i fell in love with the "Tropical Green" teal like coloured stargazer hair dyes and i was wondering...

Has anyone used these dyes?
Are their colours quite vibrant?
How will they last? my hair is bleached, how do you think it will look?
and do you have any tips or tricks with using this dye??

I used to use the red one. In my default pic actually. They're really really vibrant (the red was anyway) but I found they washed out really quickly too which was a pain. I had to dye my hair probably every 4-5 weeks to keep the colour in.

you're better off with SFX. they're very permanent though, not sure if you want that...

hmm i'm not sure if they do SFX anywhere here.. i'll have a look online. I bought the dyes already as they were only £3.50 and figured i could use one bottle now and another just before my college dance.

but thanks! i was really uinsure s normally i use Directions, like when i did it pink, and my ex, nafe, he recommended those, soo when i saw stargazer i was really unsure.

I like the Stargazer dyes as well. I had a tropical green slash through my hair a while ago and it stayed there a while. I have naturally blonde hair though.

ahh, that's pretty cool - can i ask how long it stayed and how long you left it on for?

Because my hair's bleached, and that's the same colour dye as i have =D

I don't really remember, sorry! I do know that the first time I didn't leave it on long enough and I redid it a few days later. It stayed in for maybe two months. I slowly let it fade out and never redyed it.

That's not all that helpful, I'm sorry!

I used Stargazer when I had a bleached section I dyed different colours (not the one you have though) They faded in a week or two, but it wasn't much of a pain to just do a touch up every now and then. Though it might be more annoying for your whole head, I just had a bit of my fringe to do. I put it on for about an hour or so and it'd come out really vibrant.
One of my friends had her whole head turquoise, and said to leave it on as long as you can stand to, an hour at least, and it lasts way longer.

Hope that helps!

i've also heard that mixing a bit into your shampoo also helps keep the colour longer.
that was with manic panic, but i'm sure it would work with that, too.

I've used the red one too and as long as you wash your hair with cold water, it should stay on longer. Cause the warm water washes it out quickly.
I personally like Manic Panic colors better but Stargazer is pretty good. If you have bleached hair right now, it should come out very close to what the color in the bottle looks like.

I've used bright red colours of manic panic, stargazer and sallys crazy color and there wasn't much difference in them...I prefer manic panic I think..

I leave the colour in way longer than you're supposed to, till it goes hard.
And I did the thing where you mix a wee bit in with the shampoo as well...
You're supposed to wash your hair as little as possible when its that bright and with cold water..but my hair gets greasy really quickly so I ignored that.
