Ion Flamingo Semi Permanent Hair Color Flamingo

Even though my hair is about a 2 (really blonde!) this dye only leaves my hair a soft cotton candy pastel. At first I was terrified I’d have bright bubblegum pink and so I mixed it with conditioner. You could barely see a tint of pink, so I got brave and just used it without any diluter and it was perfect! It’s still super faint but definitely pink! I love it. When I use other brands, my hair is too pink and it’s not the shade I like until a month later when it’s nearly washed out. This goes on soft and lasts a good amount of time, but not too long. Especially if you aren’t 100% into the idea of keeping pink hair long term. I wash every other day with color safe shampoo and conditioner and in between I use dry shampoo.

This product was very pretty, however did not work for me at all. i bleached my hair to a very light blonde before this in attempt to dye half of my hair pink, however at my roots it went yellow and did not work. It fried my hair a little as well and caused a small welt on my forehead where some product sat. maybe this worked for others, but i’m going to stick to Arctic Fox from now on.

Made my hair silver not pink

Received on time, the color is really pretty and I'm not a fan of pink. I even received samples of shampoo, conditioner, and hair spray .

My daughter picked out this color and it was so pretty but lasted for such a short time. We re-did the color a month later and it was practically gone after a wash or two. Other semi permanent colors we've tried last longer so it's something about this color in particular. Still pretty for the short time u have it...

I use this as just a fun highlight not as a whole hair dye. I have golden blonde short hair and when I want to change things up I mix about 1/5 of a tube of this pink dye with a dab of conditioner and use it after shampooing. I just put it in my bangs and on top and leave it in for about 5 minutes. Comes out sort of like rose gold highlights and washes out in 3 washings. Fun!

A good choice depending on your goal. The color is very nice and shows up well on highlighted hair. Don't expect it to show up on anything dark (hair is like water color, you have to start with a white canvas). Compared to L'Oréal Colorista, this one is less brilliant but lasts longer. So if you want low maintenance subtle pink for a few weeks, choose this. If you want shocking but very short term (4 shampoos), go with Colorista.

this hair dye definitely had a learning curve to it. i wanted pastel pink so i diluted it to what i thought would be enough, but it ABSOLUTELY wasn’t. after a few bleach washes though, i had it where i wanted it. then for re-dying i put the tiniest blop of pink in a fist sized thing of white conditioner. if you want lazy town pink hair then definitely use it as is, or as a 1-1 with conditioner, but for pastel pink a Minuscule bit will do
