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

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!

The first photo was the day I got my hair professionally colored, I admit that it looks dull and faded (that’s on me because I showed her an awful reference picture for inspiration) but none the less… the second picture is after ONE WASH with this stuff! To me, the color is deeper, richer, more vibrant! It smells like banana laffy taffy. I love that you can leave it on 5+ minutes to increase the intensity of color deposit. I would definitely recommend this product!

Absolutely love!!! I dye my hair a lot with box dyes but this product was recommended by a friend. I was a little hesitant because I thought it might actually just be something to help already dyed hair but no! It completely dyed my hair in like 20 minutes. The smell is bubblegum and that kind of up to peoples opinions but I really liked it. My hair felt really soft after I washed it and it didn’t ruin my curly hair either! So happy I caved and bought this product! Fair warning it does stain EVERYTHING so make sure you’re careful with applying.

Oh it worked! It worked on my son's face, his body, my hands (even though I was wearing gloves), the shower, the bathroom floor. My poor kid looked like Violet Beauregard and my shower looked like what the juicing room room must have looked liked when the Oompa Loompas were done with her. So much for me trying to be a Cool Mom for the summer.On the plus side Clinique, Take The Day Off gets the stains off skin, following it up with a regular face cleanser. And Magic Erasers came in clutch for the shower to where in only slightly look like a smurf was murdered in my bathroom.This will for sure be an outdoor activity in the future. He gets the hose from now on when his hair needs to be touched up.

This product is awesome!I recently had my hair cut and colored, and wanted to add some purple, but was a bit uncertain about the vibrancy. My stylist was spot on with what I requested of her, and informed me about color depositing shampoo if I wanted to brighten up the purple.I love it! It's so easy to use ( make sure to use gloves for application, and limit drippage on any surface though!) It smells great, and leaves my hair so soft and silky! I love how the purple color looks on my hair! I've used it 3 or 4 times already, just to give a little extra boost every few days. I can't stop looking at and touching my hair! I will definitely order again!

Listen, the product itself is good, maybe even great. However it get three stars because my whole body and head is GREEN. They don't lie on the product when they state wear gloves because it "might" stain. They really should change the wording to "will stain within SECONDS of touching your skin" I was actually buying this to cover my red hair because, for work purposes - I need it brown. But I wanted a cool brown, therefore, the red had to go. I've used green hair dye before as a toner from other brands but decided to give this a shot because the idea of shampoo sounded so easy. It turned out worse than just using normal dye (for me) did it work? Oh absolutely. Some how - this magical bottle actually turned my red hair... GREEN. That has never happened. This stuff is STRONG. Like combined all strongest dyes in the factory STRONG. It also dyed my forehead and scalp and hands and fingernails... didn't even leave it on for more than 30 seconds within it touching those parts and oh girl. It STAINS.I'd say this is probably an amazing product if you are aiming for green hair. However - if you want to use it for any other purpose from that. NO. STOP. Do NOT pass go. Try a different product or go to a pro.
