Clairol Professional Flare Me Permanent Hair Color

I've been using this line for years and LOVE it! My hair is naturally very dark brown, but the color pops without using any bleach.Pictured: 1 tube 6rr Knock Dead Red +half a tube of 5vvr Turn Up The Beet (3 oz total) + 6 oz vol 10 developer, washed twice since coloring. Lighter streaks were previously bleached.I typically mix two different reds in varying amounts. My hair is pretty thick, and below my shoulders, so I use 1.5-3 tubes of color depending on growth and if I'm playing with the "recipe."Typically, the color stays strong for several weeks, but the streaks that I bleached tend to fade much faster. You can skip the bleach and still get awesome color with this line.

After using another brand before I was a bit skeptical to do it again. I am glad I did. I chose the Flare Me Light Make Em Blush Pink Aube Roses mainly because I liked the color on box. I had never done a dye where I had to mix my own developer. Easy. Will never go back to the premix. This color went on very easy ... Rinsed, shampooed easy and I did a conditioning twice . My hair is soft, with no damage to it. I say that because I did pre bleach 2 days prior. Everything said to wait up to 14 days before adding color but I can be a bit impatient. Color is fine ... I absolutely love it

I always like to funk it up with my hair without being too funky. The first pic is in the sunlight and the second is in the shade. This is a great color. I used it over processed medium golden brown color. Hint If you want it to cover greys and last longer use a 20 developer. I still touch up my roots with a golden brown only because I don’t want my greys to be hot pink. But it blends beautifully. Another hint. If you don’t want to use a permanent hair color overtone makes rose gold for brown hair and the results are exactly the same and it leaves your hair beautifully soft and conditioned. But this stuff is great too. Faded a little quicker than I would have wanted. About 3 weeks and I could see it getting a little dull which is why I used overtone on top of it instead of dying it again but it is a great product. The color is fantastic. Picks up highlights and leaves texture and different tones. You won’t be disappointed

No, it does not come with developer. Most hair dyes do not so it's not misleading. It even says it in the product description. That being said I was still dumb enough not to notice that ahead of time. The smell is overwhelming but probably would be a bit better cut with developer. It's terrible and stings. But the color came out nice and I use a color depositing shampoo and conditioner to make it last longer. Box did come a little banged up but the seal in the bottle was intact and color was true to description.

What's the story? I can no longer see this in stock anywhere, not even on the manufacturer site? Plum Away With Me is my color I finally settled on after decades of soul searching hair color angst. Clairol, I beg of you, bring the plum back!

I was very disappointed in this product. I have dyed my hair a million times and am very experienced with hair dye and this was lacking. The color didn't look like I had hoped, it was very brown and murky and it bled for weeks. It washed out in a few weeks and every time I washed my hair the water ran deep red like it was the 1st wash.

i would give this zero stars if possible…for starters i spent 3 hours in the shower trying to rinse this out of my hair. was extremely clumpy. (now maybe i’m at fault i could’ve used the wrong developer, but there really was no specifications on the kind to use aside from 10 volume WHICH WAS USED.) finally feeling like i did the best i could after crying while rinsing out i got out the shower and immediately looked in the mirror…MY ROOTS ARE ORANGE. ORANGE😡 i will never be buying this product again. don’t even waste your time or energy.

Thought it would be brighter, but I still love it. Of course you have to pre lighten your hair before use. For the pre lighten stage I let it sit on my locs 7-10 minutes after i was done and washed it out. I waited a week before I used the tough as teal. I will say that I used a 30 developer rather than 10 and mix one tube of the color and 1 oz of the developer. The smell is very strong and made my eyes water. The consistency was runny/thick especially with locs you have to wash until you can't wash your hair anymore. After many washes the water was still blue not as the first initial wash. It may run if heavily wet. Definitely will use again. And the top portion of my hair is dye with ion permanent creme light copper brown(5rc).
