Schwarzkopf LIVE Colour Drops Orchid Purple Semi-Permanent Hair Dye, 30ml, Hair Colour that Lasts 2-12 Washes, Purple Hair Dye Drops

Easy to use, not messy, delivers great colour (I have bleached hair) and lasts a good few washes. You literally need three drops in a good dollop of conditioner - I have very short hair so good for me. Might need alot of conditoner if your hair is long.

I've been dying my hair for a scarily long time. Once a year I use a colour remover then start again. I did this about a month ago but this time the colour remover left my hair a weird purple/grey colour and I didn't want to damage my hair by putting a permanent colour on so just threw some semi permanent colour. After a few weeks the dreaded Greys were appearing and I needed to refresh the temp colour and decided to try this product. I washed my hair as normal, then left it wrapped in a towel for 45 mins to towel dry. I put some conditioner into a bowl with 10 drops of pink and applied to my hair until it was saturated. I then put a few drops from the bottle onto my hands and rubbed that in as I read you could use it without conditioner. I popped a shower cap on and left for about 40mins and then rinsed well with cool water I've just dried my hair and I'm loving the colour! If it fades after a few washes it's ok as the bottle holds lots and it's so easy to use My Greys are covered and the colour is perfect. If you want a lighter more pastel shade, use more conditioner and less drops I'll def buy this again

I use this on my hair every 2 weeks , I do use half bottle at a time to do my whole head I have dark brown hair with blonde streaks and works so well and easy to apply , does fade quickly but easy to top up

This is good to top up the brightness of the colours between dying your hair and saves dying your hair so much and damaging it but it stains your hands so wear gloves

I wanted something that I didn’t have to keep going out and buying semi-permanent hair dye every other week. I created a beautiful pastel pink with 3 pumps of the pink and half a pump of blue to make it more cool toned. And this stuff is gorgeous. Is so customisable and really makes the hair soft as you’re mixing it with conditioner. I also noticed it doesn’t leave that weird smell that most of the Schwarzkopf colours do. Honestly amazing product

Left on for 30 mins instead of 5, used 3x the conditioner stated with 10 pumps added to each glob of conditioner and still didnt dye hair at all. Did a great job of dying my daughter's skin, just none of it stayed in her hair.

My hair is naturally dark blonde. The effect was negligible. Box suggests that it should still turn purple, just darker. It didn't, even with the max amount of drops. It did deposit some colour around my temples as my baby hairs are really light, so on naturally very light or bleached hair I think it should be fine. If, like me, you're at that level where it's "too dark for blonde, too light for brown, not really sure what to call it" then the packaging is misleading. It's not much different to an ash or purple toner imo. I've used purple shampoos in the past that I'm sure are more pigmented tbh.

Exactly as picture and I followed enclosed instructions. It coloured the light grey very well but not so much the darker grey. I done a 2nd time & used a lot more & it still wasn't so good on the darker parts. It still looked okay though and I will use again and put more on and maybe leave longer. I did think it would be a lot better and if your hair is all light grey or blonde, it would be fine. Just not good for my ombre grey long hair. I am returning to this review because I want to add to it, as I have now been using this for a while. What I want to say is, the more you use it, the better colour you get, it builds up on your hair. I do find that I use a lot more than it says to use but I have got quite long hair, down my back. Over time it does colour your darker hair and looks lovely when the light shines on it. You do have to use every 3 or 4 wks for it to look good. And its better left on for at least 10mins, I find. It does wash out and you wouldn't want to get caught in a downpour of rain, you would turn purple lol but I don't find it comes off on pillows or clothes. Its definitely better than using strong dye and colours on your hair. I do recommend it and I will definitely buy again.
