Beauty / Hair Products / Raw Color Demi-Permanent hair color-drab at best

I'm an old punk rocker and I still love to look a little 'weird'.  One of the ways I express myself is with my hair and was very excited to find Raw Color Demi Permanent Hair Color in a variety of fun colors such as pink, blue, purple, and green.  I purchased the Candy Pink, which is a lovely shade of hot magenta pink to use on my bangs and the underside of my hair, but was quite disappointed with the overall results.

The dye comes in a 4 oz plastic squeeze bottle, so application was easy.  My hair is a very light bleach blonde and since this dye is supposed to work best on bleached hair, I figured I was in luck.  I slathered it on my bangs and the underside of my hair, combed it in as directed and waited.  I do have to note that the scent of this product is DELICIOUS!  It smells just like cotton candy, not some horrible chemical smell.

I waited 5 minutes longer than the 15 minutes suggested on the bottle just to be sure the color took a good hold and washed my hair.  What a disappointment!  I had light reddish-orange bangs!  Where was the candy pink?  Because it certainly wasn't in my hair.  I tried a 2nd application a few days later, which helped a little bit, turning my bangs a more burgandy red, but still no pink.  Looks like I'm going back to my old brand of odd colored hair dye that I have to order online.
