KERACOLORColor + Clenditioner 3-in-1 Color-Depositing Conditioner for Brunettes, Gently Cleanses & Conditions, Semi-Permanent Hair Color, 12 Fl Oz

For the last 18 months, I used regular Teal Klenditioner to maintain my professional Teal dye job. My hairstylist recommended this brand specifically. I was very happy with the results.After after a year and a half, I finally stripped out the blue and went purple. I decided to try the brunette version, as I usually mix half Colored conditioned and half Prose conditioner to maintain. I suspected the “for brunettes” version of purple was a denser dye, so I could stretch it further. (There’s no brunette version of teal.)I was right. But also, I underestimated how powerful these purple dyes are…When I used the regular teal, despite being very careful, I would occasionally find a tiny spot of blue in my bathroom. I was delighted that it wiped off my tile and granite without leaving a mark, even when I was dry dying with full strength Teal to really rejuvenate the vibrancy. Even if I found a spot the next day! (These were pinhead sized dots, and your tile/granite might be different. So still be very careful and looks for spots when cleaning up!) I would sometimes find blue spots in the acrylic tub or shower surround. But I realized it was mostly hard water spots that held the dye and a magic eraser would remove them.The regular teal would dye my hands and skin, but I could usually scrub it off in the shower. Although my hands and nails could be a bit Smurf-y for a few washes. I always used gloves when dry dyeing, including rinsing, because I used much more product and it would leave my hands blue for days. The Teal would leave sky blue streaks on white towels if you dried your hair normally. If I forgot to bring my hair towel to a hotel, I would just scrunch each section of hair with a different bit of the towel, and it wouldn’t accumulate enough to be visible.Once I switched to Purple for brunettes, the stakes got a bit higher. I did a dry dye (applying the conditioner like hair dye to dry hair and leaving 30-60 minutes for intense color deposit) in my newly renovated bathroom. I had gotten a bit complacent with my Teal. Somehow I managed to fling a small glob of purple on the wall. I went to wipe it with a bit of TP and got a smudge on the toilet. And later on the white plastic bidet. And on the porcelain tile. And another smudge on a different part of the wall. I was really a mess! I also had purple streaks across my neck, but wasn’t worried because the Teal always came off with a wet wipe once I finished applying. That was not the case with purple. Gentle exfoliation helped, but it took 2 showers to fully remove.The purple came off the tile just fine. I panicked when it didn’t come off the toilet or the bidet immediately, but a bit of Lysol with bleach saved them! It did not come off the paint, but we are going to do final touch ups later anyway.After nearly destroying my brand new bathroom, I started being much more careful. I used 1/3 color condition to 2/3 Prose and got excellent maintenance saturation. There were a few times that I found dots of diluted conditioner on the shower curtain or tile, but it came off with microfiber or magic eraser. A bit more scrubbing was needed but no cleaning products.I use vinyl gloves to apply and rinse in the shower, or my nails stay purple for days.I recommend Press N Seal to cover your workspace when dry dyeing. And a brush applicator to avoid dyeing your scalp. In the shower, I hold my hair in one hand and apply the diluted conditioner directly to the hair. This reduces spatter.This purple WILL bleed onto towels, no matter how well you rinse. I happen to have nice purple towels already, so no issue. But anything in a light color will get purple streaks. Purple fades faster than teal, but blue is notoriously permanent. So no surprise there.Overall, I don’t mind being a bit more cautious to get really vibrant color. (To clarify, my hair was bleached nearly white and then permanently dyed a deep, rich purple. But it also gives good purple coverage on the light brown root. The virgin root fades way faster than the purple lengths.)

This was the first time I was trying something besides permanent hair color because I’m trying to protect my hair a little bit more since I had been highlighting it for a while. I have been looking for a product that will look colorful on the light parts (Hopefully, including the gray hairs) and just kind of tint, the rest of my dark hair. I like this product because you can make it brighter or less bold just by how you apply it, how much time you let it sit, how many times you apply it, or even how often you wash your hair. It’s super simple to put on. I bought myself a box of plastic gloves and just use that to put it on. I don’t use a brush, I usually apply it dry and let it sit for like 30 minutes or whatever the instructions say. If you have darker haired, definitely use this brunette version as opposed to the regular rose gold. This will give you much better color. I have tried both.The picture with the cat shows it directly after I’ve applied it. The picture in front of all the math shows how it’s mellowed. Doesn’t cover as much as I hoped but it kind of distracts from it so I’m fine with that. I’m gonna try a bunch of different colors and just see which one I like the best!

More pink than rose gold. Need a lot to completely deposit color but works. Couldn’t get the pump to work, threw it away. It will look washed out. People will bring up how it looks faded even though it was applied the night before. Comes out after one wash with normal conditioner.

Colors hair last about three washes. Doesn't damage hair.

It worked great on my light brown hair, but it definitely stains. My pillow case is purple now, and every time I scratch my head I turn my finger nails purple.

I bought this last year and I'm just getting to it now after being red for a long time. The color goes on purple and rinses out purple but my hair looks red. I don't know if it's because I waited so long to use it. It also looked like it was fading fast even though my first application was on Saturday and I just did my second application today. I think I'll stick to the brand I usually get from now on.

Nothing like a splash of purple on dark hair, but of corse I was hesitant. 😳 No need to worry. 🤗This color is subtle and stunning.😘 So ethereal and mysterious. So I started off with a medium reddish brown and I wet my hair in the shower (wear gloves for sure) carefully placed it everywhere and combed through then put my hair in a bun (with a clip) left it on for about 20 minutes, rinsed with cold water until almost clear and the results were exactly what I hoped for. I took pictures in different lighting to share how gorgeous this color is. I love how it’s like a whisper 💜 I’m sure with another application it will be more obvious, but wow so pretty! Really a beautiful shade of purple and the shine and how soft it left my hair is a bonus. Caution: it will stain your skin so use oil on your face and body is applying in the shower 💕

So I started using clenditioner about 2 weeks ago. I had rose gold put in professionally so I got the rose gold to keep up with the color fade. Worked really good, but was very very deep pink at first, but didn't look bad, and faded quickly which I liked in case I wanted my blonde again.Once the rose gold came out, I decided to use purple.BAD IDEA!! Not only did it stain my hands barney colored purple for days... it will not come out of my hair at all! I've used everything to get it to fade out and it will run the water purple as can be when rinsing, however, it is still very bright purple on my hair and looks awful!Even worse than all of this is that I noticed when I started using the purple product, my hair started falling out in handfuls!!! To the point that it's so thin in spots you can see my scalp! I had super thick hair just 2 weeks ago and after just one use of the purple, I've lost almost half the volume of my hair!
