Additional Info:
For best results use on bleached or pre-lightened hair, although some deeper shades may give a sheen or hint of colour to darker hair. Dye results may vary depending on hair type, hair porosity & base colour. Always follow manufacturer’s instructions fully. Do not condition hair prior to use as this can smooth the hair follicle and act as a barrier on the hair. Always shake tub/bottle beforehand or use a mixing bowl to ensure colour pigments are well mixed. Colours in the tub/bottle are not necessarily an indication of the final hair colour and the dyes can vary slightly between batches, therefore dye results cannot be guaranteed. Always try a strand & sensitivity test prior to use. Our Hair Dye FAQ section has lots of useful hints and tips on how to get the best from the type of hair dyes we sell. Here you can see instructions for use, clean-up tips, how to prolong the dye results and step by step guides on using different brands.
Whilst we endeavour to ensure that the colour and description of all items shown on this site are as accurate as possible items may differ slightly due to the photographic procedure and transferring of images to the website.

Love this stuff its fantastic!! alot of stargazer dye can be questionable,,..but this stuff really lasts and gives a great pinky purple color to my hair. also if i screw up any other hair dying venture i make sure to have this handy as it solves almost any batched blonde/blue/pink/ red dye job

A very nice and bright magenta pink colour. Starts out a little darker, like a purple/fuchsia colour and then after a couple of washes gets to its normal bright pink. Lasts pretty well too.

It looked orangey in the tub – it’s come out orangey on my hair despite being bleached white! It hasn’t dyed the roots and doesn’t seem to have penetrated some sections of hair at all. I started to worry when I realised I wasn’t making my usual mess – nothing was staining! I’m going back to Special Effects as it seems to suit my hair better.
Obviously a strand test is a good idea although you don’t always get a really good idea how it will be in different areas of your hair. 🙂

Over natural (very dark brown) hair with a few slightly lighter highlights, this actually showed up very well. It was very easy to apply and I was surprised how green it was; mine appeared less bluey than the picture there. I got lots of comments, including one from a stilt-walker who pointed me out to his friends. It also lasted extremely well, vibrant for over a month until I dyed over it for university (they aren’t too keen on unusual hair colours in their enrolment photos…)

Really cute colour, didnt last as long as I’d like (2 weeks before it needed topping up), but it fades something lovely =]. About to buy some more to dye some wefts with. A good choice if you want a non-green based blue.

Pretty and shimmering red that stayed for a really long time and faded into a lovely pink 🙂

This dye is fantastic. I can’t stress enough how absolutely amazing this dye is. Comes out a proper neon bright green with PHENOMENAL lasting power. But as with most light directions shades, make sure you’re bleached very light before use!

Lasted about 2 weeks before fading but that was because I used it over pink for a multi layered effect. To get a longer lasting colour, dye should really be used over white or pale yellow hair for strongest effects.
Violette is a very nice juicy colour and very bright. Just right for winter to cheer you up! Very good value for money and just a little extra splodge from a spare bottle every couple of weeks can cure fading problems if you are obstinate like me. 🙂

I loved this colour! So bright and ‘untacky’ looking! Not much money for a brilliant colour! Tends to wear off quite easily though, but with the cheap price it’s cheap and easy to keep topping it up! Dosen’t damage the hair at all either! And I have terrible hair from all the dying! haha! -Aimee Lucy-

I have been using Lagoon Blue for a long time now, I guess you could say it’s my ‘trademark hair’. I always bleach to an almost white-blonde, then leave the dye on for approx. 6 hours before washing out with cold water. It starts off a beautiful vibrant Cobalt Blue if done correctly, then fades to a gorgeous Sky Blue. It lasts on my hair for 2 months before I need to do my roots. It fades quicker nearer the scalp though, otherwise it would have had all 5 stars from me. -CirqueMachine-

My favorite from Directions ^^ If you add it in almost white hair you get such a pretty pretty light blue color. It fades beautifully and more ‘harmonic’. It goes well with purple. -Signe-

Fantastic hair dye, didnt stain anything except a tiny bit of my hair towel. Brilliant vibrant deep blue that faded into lovely turqoise/sky blue colours. -Ultraviolet-

Beautiful, strong color. Used on bleached hair it turned a perfect turquoise! Unlike other blue-shades, it didnt fade into a messy grey but a bit greenish-pastel teal. -STPH-

LOVE IT!!!
I highly recommend this dye.
I dyed my hair with this color over a month ago, and it still looks pretty good. It was very vibrant and the color is beautiful even when it fades. Getting tons of complements all the time. Even after going to the pool the color looks great.

I love this colour! It looked a bit too fluorescent pink just after I dyed it but after the first wash it toned down and is fading nicely to a peachy pink. Would definitely keep using this colour.

I love directions colours! I think they last really well,I mix a little bit of the colour with my conditioner which stops fading! It does turn a kind of pinky purple in some places which is kind of annoying but after a wash or two it’s a gorgeous colour.

this dye is AMAZING, i left it overnight and diluted it with conditioner and the colour was super-shiny and bright, even diluted!! it fades quite quickly for a pink dye but if fades to a slightly salmony baby pink that is BEAUTIFUL. I love this dye

I used this on unbleached natural red hair that had also been hennaed, the colour came out a darker pink shade and lasted around 2 weeks, easy to use and not a runny dye.

Very bright pink/red hair dye – even over my natural brown hair. Lasted pretty well too. Got lots of compliments. 5 star.

Although it came out a nice shade of orange one wash and it had faded so much, not worth having to redye your hair everytime you wash it.
