Does anyone use Crazy Color hair dye?

I usually use solutions but fancied a change. I'm looking for quite a deep red colour, vermillion sounds like it could be the one, but seems to look quite orangey on the pics I've found online. Burgundy is nice but looks quite purplish?

Any ideas? Thanks :)

The red isn't me, the blue and green was me, it was dread falls. :) Red was a friend.

I know no one is interested but my friends and I all used crazy colour in the 90s and now when I smell it it makes my heart ache with longing for the beautiful silly teenagers we were..

Just saying..

This thread makes me a bit wistful tooBlush

I used to dye my hair all sorts of crazy colours and really suited dark pink hair but I feel too old and too conformist to get away with it nowSad

I'm too lazy to dye my hair anymore anyway but god, I'd love to be pink again.....

I miss pink eyebrows! Feeling sad now. :(

I'm 41 and just got a colour block of non-regular colour put into my hair this summer, so I hope it's not just for the under -30s.

These are good tips to help me avoid spending a fortune at the hairdressers just to replace a bit of colour, thanks everyone!

scortja smells are always very evocative for me as well, I'm the same when I smell Sun In!

I'm 32 and determined to grow old as disgracefully as I can Wink

I got bored during the Olympics and bleached the fuck out of my hair (see pics on profile)
It is currently purple blue and green like a peacock - will update it soon.
IMO stargazer is bette than Directions - directions you really need to treat as a conditioner rather than an actual dye.

I had bright pink flashes in my hair and it was bleached underneath first otherwise the colour would never have shown as I am quite dark. The first lot was done professionally and I redid the bright pink every 2 weeks as it fades to a not very nice colour.
It didn't take too long to sort out when the children were babies but as they got bigger, I didn't have time at the weekends to do it so it's back to boring now.

I did go to the salon once to have my hair dyed red. They bought the pillarbox red crazy colour. The salon convinced me to have my hair lightened first and then the colour applied. It didn't come out as expected, it was so pink it was glowing. It wasn't at all what I expected :) scared the beejeezus out of my gran though :)
