Bad product

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

What in the world was this hair color?

The gloves provided weren't enough and also weren't strong enough to keep the color from going through the fingers!

It looked like a bloody mess and it left stains when washing hair!

Do not purchase.

I have been a loyal SPLAT HAIR DYE user for many years .

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Splat Hair Color - I have been a loyal SPLAT HAIR DYE user for many years .

I ordered my go-to color , Blue Envy , like i have many times .

This time it was delivered and i noticed right off that the photo on the box had changed .

Instead of an american man and woman , it was a mexican man and woman .

Also the color they were portraying was not the Blue Envy i have used for many years .

I had not heard that it had been changed , so reluctantly , i used it .

My hair came out looking like i had gotten into my moms blue food coloring , and then stuck a light bulb in it !!

It was florescent light , bright blue , whereas my original love for Blue Envy came from the deep , darker , celestial blue that it had always been .

I was so pissed ! I had to re-dye it with the midnight blue just to tone down the god-awful color that it now was .

Ill find another dye , but it wont be anything close to the Blue Envy i always loved .

Pros:
  • Splat used to have very unique
  • Very awesome colors
Cons:
  • Have changed the colors
  • And they look like someones nightmare

Preferred solution: A reason for the switch , and why they did not alert customers to it .

User's recommendation: If you purchase Splat hair dye , make sure its an american couple pictured on the box . Otherwise you will be very disappointed with the horrid color that your hair becomes .

I have used Splat Blue Envy for years . It has a deep , celestial blue tone and looks very classy .

I recently re-ordered , and this is the new box , with a mexican woman and a mexican man , her looking like shes being held against her will and him looking like he will do harm to her if she does something wrong .

And the COLOR !!!

It is ridiculous !! It looks like a 12 year old got goofy with the blue food coloring and then stuck a light bulb in their hair !!

So now i am stuck with this horrible , electric blue awful color , when i was expecting what i had always ordered .

I am so pissed !

I like it

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I died my hair with this product, I died it midnight ruby on New Year's Eve. I have thick hair, and it comes a little below my chest, I had my friend dye it for me.

We left it in my hair for over an hour and none of my hair fell out. For the rinse time I was in the shower for like 30 minutes which was a little bit ridiculous, but I can manage, so I stayed in there and rinsed my hair until the water ran clear. After this i blow-dried my hair and the results were so good. I am very happy with the way my hair turned out.

People are complaining about it dying your skin but what I did to prevent this from happening was, I put Vaseline on my hairline, on my forehead, my ears, and my neck, and it didn't stain. I also wash my hair with cold water because that's what you're supposed to do to keep the dye from fading faster. I waited 4 days before I regularly washed my hair after dying it. It doesn't bleed when I wash it, it doesn't stain, nothing.

After I had died my hair though, I started to do research about this product and came to the conclusion that this hair color will stick to my hair permanently, and I was unaware of that. Good thing it looks good on me and I love the red lol. But I still think its unfair and dumb for them to false advertise, and it should not be allowed.

Overall, if you follow the instructions, you will get good results. Hair types are different so this product working for me, doesn't mean it will work for you.

Pros:
  • Pretty color
  • Smells good when dying
Cons:
  • False advertising

Preferred solution: nothing

User's recommendation: do a test strip first to see for one if you will like the color, and for two if it is going to destroy your hair.

Nasty chemical burn

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I have been bleaching my hair since I was a teen and never have I ever had a reaction quite the way I have had with this brand. I have red raised welts on the left of my hair line, my eyebrow where a piece of my hair touched when this crap was in it and my left lymph nodes by my ear and neck are swollen. I wasnt going to make a big deal but its so uncomfortable that I cant even sleep right and it doesnt seem to get better with time, just worse.

It didn't dye his hair, but it sure dyes the skin

Splat Hair Color - It didn't dye his hair, but it sure dyes the skin

This doesn't seem to act as a hair dye. It acts more like a fabric dye.

I was dying my sons hair-ends red. I followed directions. I used gloves. When it was time to rinse it out, it dyed my hands.

It didn't dye his hair. That was money wasted.

User's recommendation: Just go with Loreal HiColor if you haven't bleached your hair. It's top quality for virgin hair.

It made my hair silky and shiny

Splat Hair Color - It made my hair silky and shiny

This is the best conditioning shining toner I have ever used in my life! My hair is it ultra light gray color but I wanted it to be more of a natural brown and I wanted the ends of my hair to have a rose gold tent and thats exactly what happened.

It wasnt very obvious it was very subtle, but the conditioning in the shine is what sold me.

It looks beautiful. I highly recommend this product.

Dyed my daughter’s scalp purple

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Splat Hair Color - Dyed my daughter’s scalp purple
Splat Hair Color - Dyed my daughter’s scalp purple - Image 2

We used this product on my daughter according to the instructions, like any other bottle hair dye, squirted directly into the hair. Once I finished applying it to her hair I went over the few small areas of skin that had dye spots.

Rubbing alcohol wasnt removing it. Then mail polish remover didnt work either. We started to wash it all out far short of 45 minutes, and it wouldnt come out. Her scalp is stained now.

This stuff is more like fabric dye than hair dye. I have never experienced anything like this.

Im considering bringing this to a lawyer for a class action suit. This product is utter garbage and my daughters scalp is splotchy purple and her hair is like straw now.

Cons:

In order to help stop the bleeding you need to do a really good rinse with cool water until the water runs clear, shampoo very well and rinse again with cool water until the water runs clear, apply conditioner allowing the conditioner to sit for about 10 minutes then do your final rinse with cooler water until water runs clear. Cool water closes the cuticle allowing it to lock the color in and preventing color from bleeding everywhere. Try to stay away from hot water as that allows the bleeding to continue.

I want to prevent others from the heart ache I am experiencing

It completely changed the texture of my hair. It's like synthetic doll hair, that just uncontrollably matts up.

Looks like my best bet is to shave it bald and let it grow back. I am not a very wealthy women so I can't really afford help with it. It doesn't seem to have left me with any help possibilities anyway.

I am really sad about the whole thing. Because I have always had a thick full head of hair, real easy to manage without experiencing even a 'bad hair day'.

Dissatisfied

I am extremely disappointed in your product. This is the second time within 6 mths or less that I have ran into the same issue.

I have made a complaint already for my previous inquiry. I am almost to the point of never purchasing any of your products no matter of color, amount paid, popularity, especially quality. I have not once, but twice now, attempted to dye my hair with your product and it did not take completely. I have photos as well.

Now I have to figure out how to fix this mess. I am not sure what is going on with the product. I have never had an issue with anything from you guys before.

I have been using your product for a few years now. If you guys have changed the formula I would suggest going back and reformulate.
