Colorista Review

I don't often do reviews of beauty products, but I decided to do a review of Colorista temporary hair dye.  I used the blue color on my daughter's hair at the beginning of summer.  We chose it because it supposedly fades out in 6-10 shampoos.  However, after nearly two months, her light brown hair still has a pale green tint to it.  So, I approached with caution and chose the tangerine color just to give my own color a pop.   

  I started by coloring my hair the usual bright Auburn that I use about every 4-6 weeks.  I waited a week of it to begin to fade and then used Colorista.  I followed the directions exactly except for one thing:  I didn't wash and air dry my hair first.  It was probably about 2-3 days between washings when I colored it with Colorista. 

   I have to say that I'm really surprised at the results.  As I write this, three shampoos later, It's still going strong and I can't imaging it fading significantly in another three washes.  My daughter's hair which has no damage to it at all didn't seem to hold the color past one washing though it did hold that green tint as I mentioned.  My hair which has significant damage at the bottom half due to last year's experiment with bleaching it, so that may be the reason that it has held the color so well. The best thing about this stuff is that it will fade out eventually and they make a shampoo to help the process along.  In the end I may have to give that a try and I'll keep you posted if I do.
