oVertoneColor Depositing Semi-Permanent Hair Dye Conditioner - 8 oz For Natural & Color-Treated Hair, Moisturizing Shea Butter & Coconut Oil - Vegan & Cruelty-Free, Blue for Brown is now Indigo Iris

I bought the coloring conditioner in the shade Vibrant Pink. I had bleached my hair between the levels 8-10. My virgin hair was originally a level 1 (dark brown, almost black). So while the color obviously didn't show on my virgin roots, it deposited color very well on my bleached hair.My hair length reaches the middle of my back. I had to use an entire tub. I think for a more even application, I would have needed 1 tub plus at least 1/4 of a second tub. Be mindful of applying product on the back of your head. I neglected that area so while the color did show up, it was peachier and less pink than the front strands of hair that I could easily see and reach.The gloves provided in the box absolutely suck - they're thin and come apart easily and have holes in the sides which defeat the purpose of protecting your hands and render them useless. Luckily I have a stash of disposable latex gloves. You will absolutely need them to protect your hands from getting stained. Immediately wipe surfaces if product splashes onto it. Small amounts of product lightly stained my white bathtub pink. Not the end of the world but something to be mindful of.Application is fairly easy. The consistency of the conditioner is like a goopy cream. It doesn't drip so it's easy to apply, but because it's thick it's hard to spread. This is why you have to use a lot of product to cover a lot of surface area.Any coloring product will smell unpleasant. This conditioner has a mint fragrance in it that attempts to cover up the unpleasant chemical smell. It makes it more bearable. Some people have stated that the smell is like toothpaste. I think it's like a combination of chemicals and toothpaste.If you have sensitive skin like me, do a patch test on an inconspicuous area like behind your ear. Or apply a thin layer of Vaseline on the skin touching your hairline, including your temples, behind the ears, and your neck. For more protection, apply Saran Wrap on top of the Vaseline. I'm pretty lazy though and applied it directly to my hair and scalp, being mindful of not letting the product touch too much of my skin. My application wasn't perfect so small areas of my skin had product on it. Those areas, plus my scalp, became slightly itchy and red. The itchiness disappeared a few hours after washing my hair out.I applied the product and loosely clipped it up with a large hair claw, then sat in a bath for about 40 minutes while watching videos to pass the time. The instructions say to leave it in for much less time. I don't think 5-15 minutes will make a significant difference and will likely result in wasted product. I highly recommend leaving it on for at least 30 minutes, max 45-60 minutes.Rinsing out the product with water was easy. Took maybe a good minute to get it out. Although your scalp and hair strands will feel slightly heavy and sticky due to the deposited color afterwards, I highly discourage people from washing their hair with shampoo and following up with a separate conditioner. Shampoo and conditioners can make the color bleed out more. Everytime you wash with even just water, color will bleed. After first time application, just rinse with cool water, dry, and style, then use dry shampoo to avoid washing your hair often. This will prolong the life of the color.When the hair is wet, the color looked like a deep pink/light red. When fully dry, the color is a beautiful and soft pink, with a shade somewhere in between cotton candy and pastel pink. It's not actually too vibrant, despite its name. This was exactly the color I was going for though.After reading reviews on the pastel pink conditioner, which were very abysmal, I'm glad I went with vibrant pink instead. With 1-2 washes, the color gradually fades into a beautiful and subtle rose gold. With 3-4 washes, the color is almost gone. With subsequent washes, the color is entirely gone. If you wash hair every two days while relying on dry shampoo in between washes, you can expect the color to last for about a week.If you want to maintain the pink, you'll have to wash hair even less and/or reapply product every few washes. At $32 a tub for about a week's worth of color, it's pricey and not very financially sustainable. Knowing this, I bought the color just to have one week's worth of a final hurrah before I'd permanently dye my hair back to black. I had fun while it lasted and I have no regrets!I have not tried other colors in this product line so I can't speak on their quality. This product did its job and I was happy with the results. I'd recommend this to anyone with hair bleached to levels 8 or above looking for a week's worth of a whimsical and feminine color.

I bought this because I recently decided to go brunette again, and espresso was closest to my natural color. My hair was already showing brassy undertones from the bleach and it was bugging me.I glopped this on, and yes it really does stain everything even counter tops (nothing the Pink stuff can’t handle). I was worried it would turn out looking patchy like box dye can when you don’t go the full 9 using paint brushes.Likely it’s because I’m adding onto an already dark color, but it turned out great :) the brassy is toned, my hair is a shade darker once more. I left it in for double the time because I forgot to set a timer. I also did not shampoo it out, because it directed to rinse with warm water only, so I’ll update after a few washes.

I've used Overtone a number of times in the past with varying results. My most recent foray involved trying out the pastel blue. Unfortunately the color was much too muted for me. I could barely see it on my lightened hair. I tried the extreme teal with much better results, so I decided to scrap the idea I had with the pastel and just use darker colors. I used a combination of extreme blue, purple, teal, and just a touch of green to do a "galaxy" type of thing. I'm pretty pleased with the results.My tips are to really slather it on and then leave it on for however long you feel like. I left it on for over an hour during both my test run and final run. It doesn't damage your hair so you don't really have to worry about timing.It definitely stains your hands. I'm not sure why people had their bathtubs stained? Maybe it's because I leave it on for so long. When I rinse, there isn't any color. Definitely be careful with countertops and clothes, ofc. I find if you wipe it off of the counter quickly or let the spot soak a bit with some surface cleaner it comes off pretty easily.There also seems to be some confusion between the two forms this comes in. The tubs are highly pigmented - they're for the actual dyeing. The bottle form is a conditioner to use afterwards for upkeep. If you only use the bottle you aren't going to get very good results.Oh, and my hair was dry both times and I rinsed using warm water - no shampoo. There is a kinda minty smell, but it's not strong.

Extreme Teal, Extreme Blue, Extreme Green, and Scarlet Red, hoping to tint my thin light brown medium-length hair.Extreme Teal:Tried a strand test of 15 minutes with zero results, so I said screw it and did my whole hair, leaving it on for just over 30 minutes - it had no colour and made it slightly darker. My hair is similar to the 'red' in the product pages' image. The darker shade of brown rinsed out after a single wash.Extreme Blue:Tried a strand test of 15 minutes with zero results, so again, I said screw it and did my whole hair, leaving it on for just over 30 minutes - gave me a dark black-blue shade of hair, albeit, the colour was only really visible under direct light. It looked good, not as bright of a hue as I would have wanted, but generally pleased. It lasted three washes before returning my hair back to normal.Have not tried Green or Red yet, but I have just ordered their coloured conditioner which I am hoping will help push back the wash count. Three washes isn't great, especially considering considering I use a shower-cap to keep my hair dry until washing, and I use quality Redken shampoo & conditioner. I will say the conditioner has made my hair look and feel a bit thicker which is a nice touch, and it is real easy to apply.
