Splat | Midnight Complete Kit | Hair Dye | Semi-Permanent | Long Lasting | Vegan and Cruelty-Free (Midnight Tanzanite)

Didn’t like the color

My absolute favorite semi-permanent vibrant red hair dye! And i’ve been using vibrant red semi-permanent dye since the 90’s. No bleaching needed for my natural dishwater blonde hair. Stays for 6+ weeks and Leaves hair soft, shiny and healthy! i get compliments on my color on a daily basis!

Love this color, I use it every few months and it lasts the whole time. It IS messy and it's going to stain whatever it touches so I suggest covering your bathroom and your skin. I use gloves, put vasoline around my temple and wear and old long sleeve shirt. I save up cardboard and packaging and literally cover my bathroom like a serial killer but...it works and the results are worth it because I've tried all kinds of other companies (not sure I can name them here) and Splat is the only one that gives me deep, rich colors that last until I re-dye them months later. If you change colors often then this isn't the right type of dye for you.

Yes it stains but it also doesnt come out of your hair and long lasting vibrant color is exactly what I want

Oh my gosh the color is everything. On my head. But beware this stains like no other hair color. Got a drip on the toilet lid and bam, that's it. I've done all the things. Wash hair in sink. Not shower. Very staining. Again Great color. Big stains.

Terrible. My hair takes dye well, but this stuff acted like temporary wash out type of stuff. I followed the directions, shook the bottle of color, evenly applied, waited the amount of time according to instructions(which seemed like a super long time BTW), then I rinsed. . . . AND I rinsed & rinsed & rinsed & rinsed & rinsed rinsed & rinsed & rinsed & rinsed & rinsed & rinsed until I was running out of warm water but the water was ALMOST running clear finally, so I did the conditioner. Then I rinsed a whole bunch more because that made the water run dark again. The skin on the back of my neck & between my shoulder blades was stained purple, my finger nails & palms were stained purple, as well as the tub. After my hair dried it felt like 10 layers of day old hair spray in most parts of my hair. I just actually washed my hair for the first time since dying it a few days ago. Never have I had a hair dye that is labeled as SEMI PERMANENT all but wash out between the initial rinse & condition & it's first subsequent washing. My finger nails are still purple, & it was a lovely shade, but it is NOT semi permanent, made my hair feel gross & had staying power on just about everything EXCEPT my hair. I do not think I will give this brand another try anytime soon. It's possible it works well for others, but it was an absolute waste of my money & time. If I could have left a 0 star I absolutely would have.

Great color!!! I've had purple hair for 10 years now, and I've been using this particular shade for the majority of that time. Other brands like arctic fox just don't last as long as splat. Let me tell you everything I know from my experience with using this color for years!!!! This shade is definitely a more blue tone when you first use it. I have medium brown hair that I lighten to a level 8 or higher blonde. This color looks almost completely dark blue, similar to the character Coraline, when first applied. It slowly fades to a beautiful, rich, deep purple shade over time. Eventually it will even lighten to a magenta shade, and then to pink. Again, this is all on bleached hair, so I can't speak for the fade on unbleached hair. This color typically lasts without touch ups for 6 months to a year for me, but many variables can impact fade time. I can safely say that with my hair care routine, soft water, and general hair type, I can go at least a year without touching up anything but my roots with this dye. I can NOT say the same for any other brand of hair dye that I've tried!!! I typically leave my hair dye in overnight, my hair is naturally almost 3ft long (it is 35in or 89cm to be exact) and very healthy. I have never experienced any changes in hair shedding, growth, or damage while using this dye. It is not any more unsafe for hair than any other dye on the market that I've used, which is a fair amount of hair dye brands. The people who say its damaging and will ruin your hair are only talking about if you are prone to changing your hair color often, as splat is notoriously difficult to bleach out of your hair. I can attest to this, as when I bleach over an already dyed portion of my hair, the purple will change to a green color and my roots will turn a normal brassy blonde color. I can imagine that would be a very annoying thing to color correct. If you have intentions of keeping your hair mostly blonde or plant to keep your next hair color somewhere similar on the color wheel, the I doubt you will have any issues with this dye. Also, if you read the box and instructions, I'm pretty sure it says that it's only made to be used on unbleached hair if it's a medium brown color or lighter. Darker hair colors will usually have less luck getting this color to stick. Hair care also matters a lot with getting a long lasting color. Hard water, sulfates, and frequent washing can strip dye from your hair very quickly. Low porosity hair might not absorb dye as easily when unbleached. Bleaching not only removes color from your hair, but also opens the cuticle and allows more opportunity for hair dye to deposit into your strand. It is important to remove product buildup before you dye your hair as well, since product buildup can also interfere with how the color takes. Also!!! A tip to get stains off of surfaces!!!! Use undiluted castile soap (I like Dr.Bronners unscented baby soap because it's safe to use around pets) and pour it onto whatever surface got stained. Scrub it in, without using any water yet! Then, once you've scrubbed real good, rinse it off with regular tap water. This should remove the majority of dye stains. It got like 99% of the dye off my cabinets, sink, floor, and bathtub. I also used this same method to help get around 75% of the dye off of my skin, but please be careful if you have dry or sensitive skin because undiluted castile soap can be a bit harsh.

I was skeptical that this dye would turn my brown hair purple without needing to bleach it. However, I was pleasantly surprised as my hair did come out a beautiful dark purple. The only thing I didn't like about this product is that the dye itself is way to thin, and because of that it drips everywhere. My suggestion to avoid ending up with a purple face for a couple days, is to use the cotton strips that are used for perms.
