Hi everyone! ( ＾∇＾)
I have heard a lot about Liese's Bubble Hair Dye, and was tempted to try it out myself. Here is the basic history of my hair. The first time I dyed my hair was about 2 years ago. I used a light ash blonde hair dye from Garnier Fructis to dye my hair brown, and it initially looked great, but after re-dying with the same hair dye for a little less than a year, I found that the color of my hair was turning brassy. At that point I just dyed my hair back to black and haven't dyed it since then. So it's been about a year since I've dyed my hair and it has been cut and gone back to its natural virgin color and a healthier state. （＾ｖ＾）
I've been loving the reddish hair colors for fall and winter, and I wanted to make my hair color a little less dull, so I went to Kao/Liese's website and checked out what reddish colors they had available. I looked at this chart:
and I decided to go with sweet pink, which is the lightest color in the Pink/Red Brown series.
I have extremely dark hair naturally, so I picked the color under the series that would give me the most lift.
So I went ahead a made an order on amazon.com and then received my the boxed dye a week later “ヽ(´▽｀)ノ”

The box comes with the developer, hair color, nourishing creme, gloves, and a patch for allergy testing.
I do usually perform the skin allergy test (I know I'm paranoid （。-＿-。）) but I say that it is always better to do what you can so you do not have to constantly worry. The instructions explain how to do the allergy test. I went ahead and swiped the mixture on a small patch of my arm and let it dry. 48 hours later there was no irritation, so I was okay to continue on!
I always start off by getting what I need ready. So I got some petroleum jelly so rub around my hair line to avoid staining and a clip to section my hair off.
I brushed my hair so there were no more tangles and I went ahead and started.
The box I got came with both Chinese and English instructions. They are very easy to follow. The foam was super fluffy when I was dispensing it from the bottle, but as I rubbed it into my hair I noticed it was not becoming foamier. I got a little nervous because I thought I wasn't doing it right.
I was just think to myself OMG NOOO ヽ(ﾟДﾟ)ﾉ
Even as I continued to apply more foam, it was not noticeable in my hair.
I just hoped for the best! Afterwards I waited for 30 minutes then rinsed it out and took a shower afterwards and washed my hair with shampoo and conditioner. (It says on the instructions to use shampoo, so your scalp doesn't get stained, but I would recommend using a gentle shampoo!)
So here is the before:
Sorry, excuse my "I just woke up and I haven't washed my hair in two days" look. (^_^;)
And here is the after:

I quite like how it turned out :) I was a little scared during the process because my hair wasn't foaming up, but I guess it's possible this color or the box I got just didn't produce as much foam. It might also be because I have really long, thick hair. One bottle was enough, but I wouldn't have minded a little more just for a more even coverage. I did get some subtle hot roots, so next time I will make sure to do my roots last instead of first.
Overall I like the dye and I would repurchase it. It does dry out your hair quite a bit, but that is nothing a deep conditioner can't fix!
Thanks for reading (^3^) <3
Love,
Emily
