Cybernia Flux pictured above with her hair Blood Red. She says: "It had fantastic staying power. In the period from February 9th until yesterday (April 30th) I only had to redye it once, and I only did that because my roots were too long for my liking. The picture was taken March 21st."

"These pictures are of Blood Red, taken just a few days after dyeing. I believe I dyed over hair that was a muddle of blonde, orange, and brown (after stripping out a permanent auburn). You may notice some slightly darker streaks in my hair, and that color is Punky Color's Plum. This color lasted fairly well on the whole, but I found that it faded relatively quickly near my roots. As I recall, the color pretty much always bled when I shampooed, and this was fairly disturbing at first, as I'd open my eyes after giving my hair a vigorous scrubbing and find the shower walls heavily spattered with blood colored drops. That took some getting used to. ;)"

" Here is ... Blood Red, a couple weeks after dying."

"Hi, guys!? Just wanted to send you two shots of my hair 2 days (and 1 shampoo) after applying Blood Red by Special Effects. Feel free to post one or the other on your website if you want. My hair is dyed black, but for this I had highlighted sections bleached out to a light orangey color. I left the dye on the highlighted sections for 10 min under the dryer. Usually I leave it on for about 20 minutes under a dryer, and the color will come out incredibly deep and lighten with every shampoo (as with Deep Purple, which I did the same thing with a few months ago), but I think this came out very well despite the shorter amount of time."

"I took this pic 2 days after dyeing. The color was placed only on the bottom layer and my hair was not pre-lightened. I have light brown hair, and the color covered perfectly and showed up incredible! I've had it in for a month now, and it's only slightly faded!"

Two gorgeous photos of Blood Red dyed hair, the picture was taken 3 days after dyed her hair. She says she pre-bleached with Special Effects 40 volume bleach to make the color come out brighter.
