Has anyone tried the Splat dyes? I'm curious about them.

No, but I've only heard bad things. They don't stick well by all accounts.

Thanks, I will definitely steer clear of them!

ive used it, the purple shade.  it comes with a bleach kit, which i didnt need, so i cant attest to its quality. the dye itself is very liquidy, almost like an ink... which is odd to me, since i am used to special fx and other veggies which are thicker in consistency.

the color itself was actually quite nice, (read: better than expected) and lasted a decently long time before it faded on the pink side.  id compare the color to sfx pimpin purple, although pimpin lasts way longer.  id say its worth give it a go, especially if you can get it on sale.

They arent very good. The bleach kit was fine, I used it and it took my almost black hair to a yellow. I would say it is a 30vol developer. The actual color was very nice, I also used the purple one; but it only lasted about three washes and that is using SLS free shampoo. I had color fade with just a bit of rain. I've only ever had that with paintbox dyes.

If you are looking for something extremely temporary, like a week or two then the colors are great but for anything longer than that, dont bother with them.

Maybe I should use Splat for my temporary streak I will have in October while on vacation.

Thanks for that tidbit. πŸ™‚

Don't have anything good to say about them to be honest. A friend used a few boxes of the bright red in 2002 and had good results but trying the same thing in 2005 turned awful. Dye didn't stick at all. She tried the pink a year later for a streak and again it didn't last beyond the first wash and she was stuck with a pale peach lock that looked awful with her complexion.
