Title: Growing old disgracefully!
Review: I have used Stargazer colours on and off for a long time. Initially when I was younger they were the only unusual colours that you could buy in my very staid and traditional Bucks town and so we all bought these. The colour range was not as impressive as it is now though. Before we managed to get our mitts on Stargazer colours, we used to use electric blue and green mascara to dye the sides of our cropped heads (a bunch of us had mohicans). Additional colour could be added by growing dreads and weaving in bits of bright wool or ribbons but we were limited as to how freaky we could look. At the time I used to wear a mohawk with long dreads at the back and big spikes on top, a tie dyed wedding dress and army boots. To be honest my clothes taste is still pretty tragic but I have toned down a bit since I have got older, mainly because I have a small child and cannot be bothered with the faff of a high maintenance look. I do though still LOVE having stupidly coloured hair and I enjoy the psychedelic tramp look.I am coming up to 44 and I have lots of white hair starting to come through. Unfortunately it is not enough that I can apply Stargazer neat, I still have to bleach parts of it. My hair is very long and I am loathe to trash it any more than I already have by bleaching it all so I tend to do chunks and streaks of bleaching which means my hair is usually multi-toned. Stargazer is very effective on light or bleached hair.THE PRODUCT:Stargazer semi-permanent colour comes in a plastic tube in a cardboard box. It contains full instructions and some gloves. There are a range of truly wonderful and vibrant colours available to buy from lime green to bright red, violet to pale pink, but the ones that I have used most are the bright reds, violet, magenta and cobalt blue. I did at one point use all three colours in stripes all over my head. It looked far better than it sounds honestly….This dye is gloopy and slightly thicker than it used to be when I were a lass. This is a good thing because dyeing your hair a stupid colour will also mean you end up dyeing your skin , ears and bath so be sure that you *really* like the shade that you choose. You get 75 ml in the bottle which is JUST enough to cover my hair (focal bleached bits and a tone to the rest which is dark) but really if you have long hair I suggest that you buy two boxes.The bottle has a little silver foil seal which you remove and then replace the pointed lid. It has a special tip than you snip off with scissors and then you apply it. Sounds easy? It is. Technically. But no matter how hard you try you will make a mess.This is a semi-permanent colour and is a stain rather than a dye really. The reds and magenta tend to last a long time but the violets and blue hues are high maintenance and fade fast. A weekly top up is needed to keep the blue tones looking good. I use a residue free shampoo and something gentle like Dr Bronner’s to try to make it last longer.There is no real smell to the product because it is a stain. There is no peroxide or ammonia either but then you would probably have bleached the life out of your hair beforehand if you really want your hair to stand out.There is no conditioner in the box but I use coconut oil and it seems to seal it in very effectively.You WILL need the gloves. You will need bleach to rescue your bath. At least a few old towels will be needed too and do not forget the floor… this stuff does drip.HOW TO USE IT:The box contains good and clear instructions on how to use this. I use it like this:I wash my hair with a residue free shampoo – there is no point coating the hair shaft with vitamin whatever with b6 and x, y and z if it stops the dye from staining your hair. Use a good shampoo, different to your usual one to strip your hair of products and build up. I use Lush solid shampoo (Seanik), Dr Bronner’s or a Weleda body/hair wash. Do not condition your hair… again this coats the shaft. Then towel dry your hair and prepare yourself for a huge mess.If you have long hair you can section it but I find that my hair knots when I do this so I just start at the crown and work it through. If you have a parting then try to part your hair differently because this stains your scalp for a bit and you will look like a) a plonker or b) like you have a rare and fluorescent skin disease. Work it through your hair by massaging it in. Sigh as you see the tips of your ears changing colour. I usually shove a plastic bag on my head with my hair piled up under it and then leave it to do its magic.At this point you will survey your bathroom with a sinking heart. There will be blobs of colour everywhere. This is the time to bleach the bath especially if you have an enamel one. It will NOT come out of a bathroom carpet ( does anyone really still have those?) so you will be glad of the old towel that you stuck under your feet. You did remember that didn’t you? Oh….MESS MINIMISING:Baby wipes are good for getting excess stain from your forehead, hairline, shoulders, ears and everywhere else that this damn stuff has sploshed. Milk helps too funnily enough. But no matter how hard you try, you will still look somewhat stained in places that really should not be that colour naturally. It does fade though… (eventually)…The box says to leave the dye on for 15-30 minutes but I usually leave it on for an hour. It is a stain remember not a proper dye. The box states that this will not cover white/grey hair but it does with me.EFFICIENCY:I have had some mad hair colours thanks to Stargazer dyes, bright blood red, cobalt, violet, magenta, bright pink…. and they really are very very bright. The bleaching makes the colour vibrant and having bright stripes in amongst darker tones of the same colour is eye-catching. The dyes vary in terms of how long that they last, as I said the blues/ purples are the shortest lived, and the reds/pinks tend to last much longer. I have managed to get the red to last 8 weeks with one top up but that was being careful and washing my hair very gently etc. The colour can be patchy if you do not massage it in enough so be careful to do that.After using Stargazer I rinse until the water is clear and then condition it. When dry my hair is shiny and soft as usual. This dye will leave a colour on your pillow, especially if you are hot so I use dark pillowcases most of the time to avoid this. I top up the colour as and when I can be bothered. If you are more fussy than me then I would do it weekly for the purple/blue/green shades and fortnightly for the reds/pinks etc but you would not have to do a full dye job, just a top up.The dye is high maintenance but so is having silly hair. Despite this (and the mess) I love the stuff and I enjoy having bright and unreasonably loud hair. I hope that eventually I go entirely white so that I no longer have to use bleach. I fully intend to be a pensioner rocking a Harley Davidson and stupid hair.DETAILS:* Stargazer dyes contain 70ml* For good results then bleach hair or pre-lighten.* Blondes do not need to bleach…* Gives a slight tint to unbleached hair but not enough.* Many are vegetarian, some are vegan* Can be mixed together with other Stargazer colours to create a unique tone.* Box contains instructions and pair of disposable gloves.* Use two boxes for v long or v thick hair.* Dyes will last up to 12 months once opened with no adverse side-effects (if securely closed after each use)INGREDIENTS:Full of junk pretty much…. all of the colours listed below are not in every dye, it depends on the colour that you choose.Aqua, Cetarly Alcohol, Distearoylethyl Hydroxyethylmonium Methosulfate (and) Cetearyl Alcohol, Ceteareth-20, Citric Acid, Methylparaben, Butylene Glycol, Clyceryl Stearate, +/- Basic Brown 17, Basic Brown 16, Basic Red 76, Basic Yellow 57, Acid Violet 43, Basic Green 4, Basic Red 46, Basic Orange 2, Basic Violet 4, Basic Violet 14, Basic Blue 7, Basic Blue 9, Basic Violet 2, HC Yellow 4, HC Yellow 2, HC Yellow 1, HC Red 1, HC Red 3, Acid Red 8, Acid Green 1, Inci 12251, Inci 12250, Inci 12719, Inci 60730, Inci 42000, Inci 110825, Inci 11270, Inci 42600, Inci 42510, Inci 42595, Inci 52015, Inci 42520, HC Yellow 4, HC Yellow 2, HC Orange 1, HC Red 1, HC Red 3, Inci 10020.

Title: Beautiful colour
Review: I had dyed my hair a mid blonde and wanted a change to go to a rock festival. I used the rouge. So easy to apply and half an hour later I got the colour I wanted. Just remember to put vandalise around your skin before application!

Title: Turned me into a mythical creature
Review: I’m not buying any of these ready-mixed semi-permanent dyes online again. I have a theory that, if they ever worked, they’ve sat so long in some warehouse somewhere that by the time they make their way to my scalp, they’re utterly useless.I put this black dye on me – black – and what manifested in the shower was a scene out of Carrie. Blood-red was pouring down my whole body. Astonishingly, when I looked at my hands, I saw they were completely blue. The red and blue mixed in the shower to dye the shower purple.When I got out of the shower, blood red was still dripping down my scalp – yet my face, neck, and most of my body had turned blue. I was no longer a human being, but some mythical or alien creature – “We have a Na’vi at home” vibes.The scrubbing required to turn me back into a human lasted days – and elements of the blue on my skin stayed for a couple of weeks. My shower has permanent stains of various colours. This might have all been almost tolerable if my head had been dyed black. It hadn’t. It did nothing.This was the worst kind of dye – dyes everything around it except, miraculously, the hair.

Title: Amazing result
Review: I have been trying to get the perfect purple for ever but have never achieved until now.When looking at this product I was wary about the reviews but thought I would chance it. Glad I did. I have short but thick hair so used 2 bottles, it was messy (stained my shower mat from clear to pink/purple) and kinda stained my skin but I recommend using kolor killer wipes to get that off.It stained my hood of a hoodie but I think that was from what was left on my neck. I washed it the next day in cold ish water with colour protect shampoo and conditioner from Superdrug. I then used a hair dryer on a cool setting to dry my hair stop it from bleeding onto thing whilst wet.I work in a school which can make me hot and sweaty from all the running up and down the stairs and I didn’t have any bleeding from my hair or when I used a towel during the night.I have been dying my hair since 2019 and my hair has been damaged in the past but this dye make my hair healthy but a little dry (noting a bit of conditioner couldn’t fix)I have not gotten it wet in the rain yet so can’t comment if it bleeds or not. So far I have had it on my head for 3 days and I am really impressed and the colour is super vibrant. Best hair dye so far 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

Title: Everlasting blue
Review: Gel dye was easy to use and the purple looked great initially, but very quickly faded to a blue that seemed to last forever- 6 weeks after dying I still had blue foam and water every time I washed my hair and even bleaching only faded it to a pale turquoise.

Title: Would Recommend!
Review: I’ve purchase this brand a fair over the last 2 years and I’ve only ever had a problem once. But it does what it needs to and it lasts a good couple months given how often you wash your hair – I’ve managed to maintain a strong hair colour for 6 months in the past!Would recommend!

Title: Made my hair dark not purple
Review: Used this on unbleached light brown hair and just made it really dark brown/black and not purple – giving 2 stars because there was a faint purple sheen in bright light that lasted a couple of days but that’s it (it faded after 2 days even before washing it). Then it had completely faded after 2 washes (a week ish). Had expected it might be only faintly purple on unbleached hair but didn’t expect it to be so dark or to wash out after 1-2 washes! I have used other purple dyes on my natural hair with success but maybe this one needs bleached hair.

Review: My daughter is blond with blond highlights – there’s hardly any pink in her hair. I did the colouring exactly as advised (even extra time before washing). Might work if you’r a truly peroxide white blond. Else don’t buy.
