Napro Palette Intensive Caring Colour.

I find that if you are looking for a cheap, at home hair colour then this is an okay option. For me, the colour faded so quickly that I had to redo it again not long after, and if you're like me and try to spread the time between dying as long as you can, this isn't the product for you.

Even on the cost front, having to redye it so often would end up costing you more than using a more expensive brand in the first place, so there're really no advantage of using this over another brand.

I bought this a few months back in the blue/black shade when it was on special for $9.00 to darken my already natural black hair.

The package comes with gloves, instruction manual, developer creme, conditioner and hair dye in a simple cardboard/plastic box as shown in the above picture.

Now the dye itself honestly lasted for only a couple of weeks and a few days. The colour starting washing out at my very next wash which was very annoying because in my white bathroom the splashing of hair dye while shampooing doesnt look pretty on the wall.

However, like they say you get what you pay for. I would recommend this if you are after a quick change in colour for the weekend but if you are looking for something permanent and long lasting - find something else.

Overall, the colour intensity is good (I score it an 5/10) the scent of hair dye is obviously overpowering, the conditioner smells nice but the hair dye does not last very long and it may leave your hair feeling not so healthy after use.

I bought this because I like to try new products to see how they measure up against each other and also because it's easy on the purse strings. I found it to be easy to use and easy to follow instructions but as with most hair dyes I find the gloves they supply are too short for my fingers and end up splitting and dying my hands the colour of my hair which isn't easy to remove. I find that it does cover evenly and gives a nice vibrant colour but it fades pretty fast as is to be expected with cheap dyes though I guess. The packaging is a bit cheap looking which I guess reflects the price well so it doesn't appeal to me a great deal.

Like the title says, the darker colours are really good. Black, dark brown, even light brown could be good. I use a dark purple shade that's fine but it fades really fast, as do the reds. I had light blue hair beforehand and within a couple of weeks after dyeing it the blue started to show through most of the way. Not one of the best.

Before I started this dye job I went into it knowing that reds do fade quite badly so I only had moderate expectations. I chose the colour Intense red ( I am a natural redhead but wanted a bit more oomph). I have long hair so used 2 boxes as recommended; luckily it was on special in the supermarket. Even not on special it is still a very good price. Unfortunately as per most dyes the gloves are a bit naf so I used latex gloves instead. Once I got started the smell made my eyes water. It was however quite easy to get good coverage over all of my hair. After developing and rinsing out it looked amazing. Within about 10 days the colour had lost its intensity and just looked a bit 'muddy' and I was very disappointed that the colour fade was that quick, even with using colour lock products. I think if you are after intense results but don't mind the fade then this is a perfectly fine product to use but for me I was hoping for something with a little more staying power.

This is my go to dye for regrowth and touch ups. Doesn't leave my hair patchy, but can make it quite brittle. On the odd occasion this dye hasn't actually stuck to my hair. So its not good from going light brown back to blonde, only really works on hair thats already been bleached so beware

I dye my hair all the time! I loved this hair dye, I got it on special for $7 NZD which is a huge bargain for someone in New Zealand. The colour came out as the exact same colour on the box, was even throughout the hair and there were no patches.

I was really happy with the intense colour at first, but after about a week the colour started to fade drastically. I could see the colour washing out in the bottom of the shower, which I have never experienced before. The smell of this hair dye is very strong so definitely needs to be done in a very well ventilated place.

This is always on special for $6 @ the supermarkets and that's when I've bought it. I've now learned that it's not for my hair.

This has a high potency in scent and very potent on staining but definitely not potent on dying my hair.

It sits on the hair for the recommended time and when washing out a lot of colour comes out in the shower and does mark the shower so I have to be sure to thoroughly rinse both my hair and after that the shower out. Also need to be careful of what I touch and where I do my hair as this not forgiving. It stains the scalp and the hairline so it's helpful to either put baseline or conditionerror around the hairline to prevent the staining.

My hair doesn't take to this colour and only last 2 washes before my hair is back to the norm.

Before trying this hair dye, id had a few friends comment on how well the colour turns out so I thought Yay I must try it as its nice & cheap also so a win win really.. I tried a purple colour cant remember exact name of color maybe plum purple , Because my hair is thick I brought my usual two boxes and left on for recommended time except the color did not stick to my hair I had a slight tint of color in the sun but nothing to what my friends had raved about. So id say it works alot better with thinner hair compared to thick. Also my friends touch up their blonde roots when they can't afford to go to the salon which works a treat so mixxed feelings about it..
