Punky Colour 3-in-1 Color Depositing Hair Cleanser & Conditioner, 8.5 fl oz. (Lavenderapturous)

I don't care what other hair dying products you have in those tabs behind this one, they're not as good as this one. I don't care if they're cheaper or promise to last longer. THIS one is the one you've been looking for.I have used permanent hair dye, semi-permanent hair dye, and color depositing shampoo. This one, the Punky Color 3-in-1 beats them all.Yes, I know I sound like a commercial but I'm serious. Let me 'splain...I've been alive a very long time. I always said I didn't care what color my hair turned as long as it didn't turn loose. But after waking up for the millionth time and seeing Benjamin Franklin staring back at me from the mirror I decided I'd had enough of "going gray".Now, I had no interest in dying my hair back to its original color. I'd lived with that for decades and, really, what's the point? I decided I needed a bold color, something shocking. I couldn't go red because my sister is a natural redhead and the last thing you want is your sibling pestering you with: "why are you copying me? why are you copying me? why are you copying me?" over and over...no matter HOW old you get.So, I decided on blue.I started with a regular blue hair dye. It took half an hour and stank like rotten meat. The smell lingered inside my sinuses for three days afterward. The color was okay but going through all that and watching it fade in less than a month was very disappointing.So I dyed it again. This time with an ammonia-free dye. This one looked okay and smelled much better, but it faded even faster.This was becoming exhausting.So I bought a color-depositing shampoo...sadly, not the Punky one. The shampoo was a complete mess. It took almost as long as the actual hair dye and stained everything it touched blue except the hair! It was gone in less than a week.In my desperation, I turned to the Punky Color 3-in-1 and I WISH I had done it sooner.Firstly, this is important...Punky will stain everything - including your skin and your clothes so make sure you wear gloves when you apply it and be diligent about wiping it off your skin as you do it.This is best NOT done while you're in the bath, so apply the shampoo before you get in and make sure you get it on all the hair as well as you can. Then let it sit. You can do it in about 5 minutes if you're very blonde, but if you're gray or dark haired then you want to leave it in longer. It says on the bottle that 10 minutes will leave a better color. And the best part is that it smells like bubblegum!Once you've left it in the correct amount of time, THEN get into the shower and rinse your hair or however you want to work that out for yourself. Rinse thoroughly until all the leftover cover comes out. There is a LOT of excess color.But once it is done it has the brightest and shiniest color of any of the methods I've tried. And this is the part that Punky really gets wrong...they position this as something for a younger crowd but they should really market it for older people who want to get rid of their gray! The gray turns almost metallic with the shine and shimmer it gets from this product! It is beautiful!

This is my 2nd purchase of this color and I love it! Yes, it does dye your hands blue but if you just wash them with soap after you use it's gone completely by the time you do anything with your hands. I use it a couple of times per week and I have gray streaks in my hair so the blue only tints my gray streaks. Great alternative to using hair dye to lie that I'm not getting older. Everyone comments on how they love the blue in my bangs and again, it only tints the gray hairs, not the brown rest of my head so it looks great. I have had so many people say how good my blue looks in my hair. I recommended it to quite a few people too. So easy to use since it's just a shampoo. Totally recommended. If you don't like the color on your hands, just shampoo with gloves. Be warned it does look like I killed a smurf in my bathtub every time I shampoo though. Comes off with bleach shower spray though so worth it!!!

This product is not greasy it doesn't make your hair dry it keeps your hair healthy keeps the color vibrant once you color your hair that color or even if you use this shampoo and conditioner as the color it makes it wonderfully Vivid the weather is great and it smells wonderful be sure to wear gloves when applying and rinse with lukewarm or warm water every time you rinse or wash your hair with it do not apply any other shampoo and no it doesn't cause hair loss

I went to the pool and when I got out my blue hair dye was completely stripped, so I tried this to fix it and it worked great! It’s back to the exact color it was before, I left it in for 10 minutes. I would recommend using gloves, but it does wash off skin very easy if you choose not to. My only issue with this product is it would not wash out. I stayed in the shower for mad long and blue kept dripping from my hair. I don’t know if this is the product that caused it or the porosity of my hair because it was pretty damaged. Either way, would recommend! Didn’t stain any of my belongings yet even though it didn’t fully wash out. I got color tealistic! First photo is before, second is after when my hair was still semi wet.

I just ran out of my current bottle but honestly? The product is great, it stains literally everything but it comes out of your skin super easily after using body wash! It does make your hair a bit dry so i like to do another wash with my color safe shampoo and conditioner but otherwise i have no complaints! Color depositing shampoos rarely dye much, but it keeps my pink vibrant and that's all i was looking for! The bubblegum scent isn't so bad after a while but even if i don't use any other hair product the scent rarely sticks.

I’ve tried a few different color depositing products, and Punky’s Red Shampoo + Conditioner combo is… alright. It does what it says, but the results aren’t as vibrant or long-lasting as I hoped.I applied it right before the photo attached (freshly out of the shower), and while there’s some red tone, it’s definitely not fire truck red. My ends already look faded, which is disappointing. With other brands like Color + Clenditioner or Lime Crime Unicorn Hair, I can go a few washes before needing a touch-up. This one? I feel like I need to reapply before every shower to keep it looking decent.Also, the instructions say not to leave it on longer than 10 minutes, which makes me worry there might be damaging ingredients. Other color depositing products let you leave them in longer—even overnight—for bolder results without risking damage.Giving it 3 stars because it technically works, but there are definitely better options out there for vibrant red tones and long-lasting color.
