I Tried Four Temporary Hair Dyes That Change Your Hair Color In Seconds

Nico Reyes Today, I'm gon na be testing out four temporary hair dyes., I'm somebody who does not want to permanently dye my hair, but these temporary dyes could be a fun way to switch up the color. Whenever I want to. The dyes, I'm gon na be testing out, are Manic Panic's Dye, Hard, Good Dye, Young's Poser, Paste, Gemini Naturals' Get Hued and Mofajang.. I'M gon na be testing out the hair dyes on their color payoff, their transfer-proofness and how easily they wash out.. All of these hair dyes are also in different price ranges, so we'll see if the quality of the dye changes with the price point.. The first temporary dye that I'm gon na try out is this one from Gemini Naturals and it's their Get Hued collection and it's in the shade Cobalt.. So, in order to test out all of these dyes on their transfer-proofness, I am going to invite a very tall friend wearing a very white T-shirt into the studio, hug him and we'll see if any of this dye transfers onto his shirt.. I don't see anything kind of a little in the center.. You can see like the slightest tinge of blue like right here and here, like very slightly.. That is really impressive, So the Gemini Naturals [ Get Hued. ] was actually really great, even though I was really disappointed in how much product you actually go. Through., At least I do because I'm somebody with very thick hair., Not a lot transferred onto Grant's shirt when I did my little hugging test.. It'S definitely not the easiest. To wash out, but I do have to say, I am not shampooing my hair in my workplace bathroom.. I am just rinsing it with the water from the sink and seeing how much comes out with that.. Next up, I am gon na try Manic Panic's Dye Hard in the shade Electric Flamingo and it is electric.. This is the pinkest pink. I think I've ever seen in my life. I've heard of Manic. Panic before. Never tried any of their products, but they are a very well-known hair-coloring dyeing brand. Grant Tyler Hug me brother. Reyes Hug me brother, Yup, there's definitely pink. Not here, but we see it here and then I saw some right here on his sleeve.. So the Dye Hard, actually rinsed out of my hair fairly quickly., Definitely a lot quicker than the Get Hued one.. I think that the color, although it was not what I expected it to be, it was definitely not pink on my hair color. It was still pretty cool.. I was expecting a little bit more from the color payoff, just because Manic Panic is like known for these extremely pigmented dyes, but I'm also a brunette.. It doesn't really work the same for me and I should have known better.. I should have known that that pink was not going to happen on my hair. Next up, I'm going to try out the Mofajang Hair Coloring Material.. Now I've done a video on this product in the past. Ew. I don't like what it just did to my hair.. The weird thing about Mofajang is that I can't find its like original source. There's no like online Mofajang store where you can order this stuff from.. I found it on Amazon for $ 7.99, so that makes this one our cheapest hair dye of the day.. We got some right here. We got some right there. When I first tried the Mofajang. I really didn't hate it, but I did hate the way it felt when it dried, and this time it was no different.. It does dry to this really crunchy hard texture. That is just not pleasant., I don't think anybody wants hard crunchy hair., But it did have a really nice color payoff and it rinsed out in the sink fairly quickly.. The final temporary dye that I'm gon na be trying out is the Poser Paste from Good Dye. Young., This is actually Hayley Williams' hair-dye, company., Hayley Williams, Paramore.. We all know her. We all love her.. The color that I got is called Kowabunga, which is so fun because it's green, just like the Mutant, Ninja Turtles., Just looking at it inside the jar. It does look like a much more dry formula than the rest of the colors.. I feel like. I look like the Joker.. Ok, the final hug. Here we go. - Oh, my God, I'm flaking everywhere. It'S disgusting. You can see the green flakes.. My hair texture in this moment feels so terrible and dry and, like there's some weird film on my hair, it feels awful.. I cannot wait to go home and use the deepest of conditioners on my hair, because, right now it just feels dead.. It feels terrible right, now. After trying out all four of these temporary hair dyes. I think that I've finally come to a winner and that winner is the Get Hued by Gemini Naturals., Even though it is the most expensive hair dye that I tried out today. It performed really well overall.. The color payoff was actually great and I thought that the blue really stood out against my dark hair.. I think that between the color and the formula it performed really really well.. When it came to the transfer-proof test, the blue really did not rub off at all.. It was barely noticeable really hard to see, so it definitely did really well with that.. It did give me a bit of a hard time when I was rinsing it out, but it definitely was not the worst.. I used way less of the Get Hued in the end than I did with the Dye Hard, which tells me that I get more bang for my buck with the Get Hued.. I definitely have to give second place to Manic Panic's Dye Hard.. This one was a really great formula and an even cheaper price point than Get Hued, but my problem with it was that I had to use more of the Dye Hard than I did with the Get Hued in order to have a really good color payoff., The Mofajang was fine.. I still to this day, do not like how it leaves my hair feeling all dry and crunchy, so I would definitely put it at third place.. The biggest loser today was obviously the Poser Paste.. It was an OK, color payoff.. I feel like the green did look kind of vibrant against my hair, but when it came to transfer-proofness and washing it out, it just failed. It failed miserably.. So when it comes to temporary hair dyes, I say spend a little more for a product that performs better and try out Get Hued.

Molly Stead: Suggestion: Maybe next time use the same color for each dye. Then we would really be able to tell which one works best.

Just About: I dont think this was a very good test because 1) some of these products clearly state "to be used on damp hair" 2) you should have done the tests on separate days, seems sketch that the order you applied the dyes was the exact order they got in their final ranking 3) I think that electric pink looked really nice on you lol

Jeanne Côté: aren’t we gonna talk about how she’s gorgeous???? Like bro she so pretty

This channel is dead get off child: Her: I’m a brunette so it doesn’t work the same for me Black haired people: *Hold my pigment* Edit:STOP REPLYING TO THIS COMMENT SAYING "THERE ISN'T BLACK HAIR"THIS COMMENT WAS MADE AS A JOKE OML.

zoe mendis: I like that she’s doing it because a lot of colors only work on light colored hair and if you are brunette (like me) you’d have to bleach your hair and these are supposed to be fast.

Lilani Kun: Damn! I loved that ''pink'' dye on her hair, made it look like an orangey-brown hair color, makes me wanna try it out since I don't wanna bleach lmao. The purple and ''pink'' one looked amazing on her imo, great video!

Chris: Every curly girl with dark hair is so happy to see representation and products tested out for her hair ❤️

raw ramen: 2:28 just me or does this color on her hair really fit her and actually looks really good

Syauria: Her;“You can see the color . Look at the flakes” me: *squints*

Maria Ela Yörükoğlu: Okay but the red/pink looks bomb on her!!

floatingeyeballs44: That green dye on her curly hair looked so cool. You could add some tiny flowers and it would look like a mossy forest floor. I am totally going to try that sometime for like a dryad or forest fairy costume. Gorgeous!

Lindsey Burnside: I've tried the manic panic and Gemini Naturals get hued, and the Gemini Naturals one was better by far! I've tried on damp and dry hair and both her pretty easy to apply, but my favorite way was applying damp in sections (looks really natural) and then adding a bit more on dry hair for some vibrant pops. Glad I'm not missing out! I'll just buy more colors from them!

Arfeen khushnoor: But what if dye your hair and go out with friends AND the Rain starts!..

Keegan Potts: When she said “” I felt that

Raven Maxie: For me. I loved Mofajang. It was super pigmented on my hair and made my curls pop, and also I think I loved it because I could style my hair without having to actually put edge control on my hair. It is fairly thick and super waxy but I loved it!!

Penny Dennis: Manic panic was me fav! It complimented her so well and actually looked natural!

Nico Collins: I dye my hair black and I have the Get Hued in Midnight (the color demo'ed) and it looks fabulous on my hair. I get many compliments everytime, especially from older women. At first I thought it wasn't working when I was applying in the bathroom under an LED light, but when I walked out into my bedroom to the mirror in the natural sunlight I was shocked at how vibrant and blue my hair was. My daughter's hair color is a 2 or 4 so when i tried it on hers it looked like a deep purple. I like the product alot. I wore my hair like that to work and most ppl didn't even know it was blue because it wasn't obvious when I was inside. Make sure u follow instructions to use a leave in conditioner on your hair before applying; it makes a difference if applying wet. You can see my hair if u search #gemininaturals on IG (MzCoffie)

Princess Cherry Pink: You won’t believe how happy it makes me that there are other people on this earth who know and use Hayley Williams’ hair dye brand. Also jealous of her insane vocals

Angela Ward: I just want to say that the hot pink manic panic turned your hair an amazing shade of copper red that looks absolutely GORGEOUS on you!!

skinbag: i wish my hair was as curly as hers it’s stunning omg

oakley: Her hair looks gorgeous with the off-red/brown the pink dye gave her. Like sheesh That woman can pull off anything.

fangirlfoodie: I need to know how she styles her curly hair bc it looks amazing. I really liked how the manic panic looked on her. My hair is similar to hers so now i know how to get a lighter brown.

Julian T. Powell: so happy to see someone with my hair texture try out hair dyes. i dyed mine once a long time ago and i ended up cutting all my hair off by the end so it's been a virgin hair ever since. I'm still reluctant but this video helps a lot

Tina: Am I the only one who can't see although the cameraman keeps zooming into the t shirt?

Cindy Hoomalu: OMG your hair is gorgeous!!! I think YouTube might be reading my mind since I usually watch true crime, but today your video was first in my feed today. I’ve been thinking about playing with purple, but afraid to try it because colors never show through on my hair. Thank you for this awesome video!

Open Casket Ready with Matty Marjolet: I’ve used Mofajang in the past. The key is to really work it in until you don’t feel even the slightest glob of paste and to avoid the crunchy feel you have to brush it through with an actually brush or comb.

Rosilia-Maria Belktrazk: I'm brunette and have been thinking about putting color to my hair. However my hair is virgin and I prefer using temporary dyes. This helped me out a lot and I'll be giving Gemini a try!

misstina hamilton: Wow sis is adorable and has beautiful curls and I love the curly bangs ❤♥❤

Kristella Jackson: I agree, the Get Hued seemed like the best hair dye. I know now which temporary hair coloring product I will be using for my next cosplay. Thank you!

Michal b: I bought the gold mofajang and applied it to my curly hair. And used water to run it through better. I let it air dry and it defined my curls beautifully for a party. I went to bed with it in my hair without any transfer to the pillow. I think your hair needed more time to dry and sometimes looked like some product was heavier on some of your curls.... But great video! I only knew of two of those products and I'm super excited to hear Hailey Williams has hair products!

Galaxy: i’m so glad you did this with dark, curly, thick hair. i’ve seen a few videos likes this with blonde straight thin hair and of course the color is going to take well.

xyrie cass: you have such beautiful curly hair. and those hairdyes look so cool :) i might buy one. i actually prefer manic panic to most hairdyes but not pink. ill get it in a blue, a purple, a red, or something else :) and the get hued sounds so cool! i might get it one day

Tae Na Dy: Doesn't your hair have to be slightly wet with these products, especially mofajang? It looked as though you were putting it on dry hair

Katie Alcazar: Tried manic panic for the first time this week. Ordered from amazon and was surprised by how small the container was and thought oh heck no - no way that’ll cover my whole head of medium long hair — surprised me — it got the job done with half the container woahh yay now I have this cool dark purple look

Raquel Torres: Thank you for the hair dye test in your very pretty curly dark hair. I’ve tried a few products on my extremely dark black hair and not a lot of these products work on my hair!!

Tamora P: What a wonderful hair this girl has. She looks amazing with all the colours on her hair.

Rocio Sosa: My hair is like hers I feel so validated right now seeing someone some what like me and she rocked every single color flawlessly❤❤❤❤❤❤

Jai Slay: Your hair should be damp/wet while applying this product and let it dry in your hair for the best results It's definitely not at it's full potential on this dry hair

Sandra Cox: The pink was my favorite. It just made your hair look a warmer natural shade. The Cobalt was a close second.

Foxstream: I’m really considering it. I love the idea of coloring my hair but don’t want to bleach and the fear of being judged while trying to find jobs. So this could be a fun time over the weekend and stuff. The color showed well considering she has dark hair. Dye never works well for us unless we bleach.

Dumbass: In the future I will definitely be trying out the gemini natural hair dye you tried out!

10 subscribers without a video Challenge: Girl: You can kind of see a little bit of blue in the sender of his shirt Me: I don’t see anything

Babbs Fangirl: I think each one should have been tested in four separate days.

nc 178: Red_gorgeous Blue_looks good Purple_nothing special is ok Green_kill it with fire!!!

Howlie 90: She has gorgeous natural hair. I've always wanted those kind of bangs but sadly, my hair is 2c at best and I can't achieve that without using heat. It's been 3 years since I've used heat styling products and I'm not gonna break just for curly bangs.

Stephanie Leigh: Her hair is gorgeous naturally but I also loved the purple and blue in her hair too. ❤️

Kelly McClain: I love your curls! Gorgeous. The purple looked really good on you.

Kaylee j: I thought the blue looked really nice against her skin color and the pigment was awesome

Eli Spiegel: the green dye on her hair gave me mossy tree vibes and I kinda loved it tbh. maybe not for everyday wear but definitely as an aesthetic choice

nezuko: When you use the mofajang hair dye you have to make sure your hair is wet and use your regular products so it doesn’t come out crunchy (for curly hair) I tried this because I also have curly hair and it works great

Brianna Bustamante: That Manic Panic dye turned your entire head copper so I'd say it did it's job, (REALLY GOOD TOO) being the pink wouldn't normally transfer to a darker color even with a permanent or semi permanent, so a temporary would not gonna have that affect either.

Donnis Sullivan: Yes you have such a natural beauty. Your due comparison was really great and informative. I'm the same and dont use any permanent dyed but prefer semi permanent that comes out with each wash. I use Natural Instincts. I liked the second one example. Thanks for doing this video for us.

Ha Lg: I use Splat 30 wash bleachless dyes and those may as well be permanent, because they don't fade out. It took years for me to even try that type. No other dyes would stick to my badly damaged hair. But my hair has actually recovered since I switched.

Jessa: I always dye my curly hair that green color and it’s my favorite look on me super cute.

Kiki R: Her hair rovks! The curls just.. wow! Amazing how she maintai her hair

poopsy doodles: thanks sooo much, i wanted to dye my hair but im a brunette, and i dont like bleaching, so this is a lot of help, also, i love how she just spreads the dye all over her hands

Mathittude: The green hair dye would be so cool as part of like a Mother Earth/Gaia type costume on her!

Madison L: First, her hair is absolutely gorgeous and I'm in love with the ringlets. Second, maybe these colors could be tried on someone else with straight hair and not as dark? I feel like none of them besides the green looked like anything on her hair. It would be interesting if someone with a lighter brown hair colour could try these out.

Lara Tiara: Nico's hair is so gorgeous! I'd kill to have hair like that!

tron pig: I personally love the mofajang, and I can get rid of the texture by combing for a bit lol

Iris Benitho: I just want to thank you for this video! I’ve been looking for some temp hair dye and this helps with curly hair.

L M: With poser paste, it’s difficult to judge against these because it’s not the same type of product. You can fluff it on, but it’s a colored styling wax. In my opinion, the coolest poser paste looks are the looks that slap it on like a thick paste. Hayley used it a lot on tour and had awesome looks. Also because if it’s texture, rinsing it out with water just doesn’t work. They made it virtually water proof so you need shampoo to break down the wax. As soon as I saw the no shampoo thing I was look oof, it won’t wash out. I will say I don’t like the flaking either though. But it’s super fun to use for concerts and you don’t sweat it out.

Leonel Lin: I’m fairly sure Mofajang translates to magic sauce in Chinese, which would explain why she can’t find the source of it and why it’s so cheap. It’s sold from overseas through amazon only.

Suzanne: I love this women’s curls. Amazing 10/10

Candace the Magnificent: When you work with these products, your hair needs to be freshly washed and conditioned. It works best when your [curly, don't know it would work on straight haired ppl) hair is still a bit damp, never dry. Her first video with the Mofajang happened bc she used it on bone dry hair and didn't fluff it. Also, the color transfer is happening way worse than it has on me bc she isn't allowing it to dry in your hair. The fact the product coats your strings means your hair will stay sealed and hydrated until you wash it out. I recommend watching Laurscurls videos on these to get better tips. You can't do these in your work bathroom without at least a spray bottle and some conditioner.

Isabelle P: Okay but her hair is absolutely gorgeous, she definitely knows how to treat it well

ray k: God as someone with dark curly hair, this is so helpful

Kayla mae: With mofajang it dries hard so you have to brush it out and it works really well mofajang is more like a hair gel/chalk mixed together.

HermesGeko: I'm pretty sure some of these are supposed to be applied to damp hair. Temporary color can be thinned out if its a little too dry to work with... I have always used a little hair gel. Crunchy can sometimes be fixed depending on the ingredients as well... But I'm not familiar with the super crunchy brand you used. But I have mixed in hair creams or oils before to lessens the color crunch and then sealed with a flexible fine mist hair spray. Dark hair and more temporary product is unavoidable... They haven't come out with a pigment able to cover sexy black and brunette yet... Tell them to work harder everyone likes to have fun with bright color and not have to commit or go boring blonde. One good thing is you don't have to worry about unintentional staining of your hair. It has happened to me many times. I had my hair stained for over two months before ( yellow green blotches) from temporary but I also has it where semi permanent color washed out in less than a week. Lol Your friend is handsome and you are gorgeous in every color from your natural to the green!

HopeFaithandLove Smith: Nick can we get you to do a natural hair care routine video? Your curls are so luscious!

Tiri Aran: Yo your tall white T-shirt friend was low-key fine

Jenavieve 👁: i absolutely loved that purple it really sucks that it makes your hair crunchy none the less it’s still very pretty

viv 02: I love the get hued one and im thinking of buying it

Sewer Ghost: I love Mofajang (however it’s spelled) it takes practice but once you figure out how to use it it’s really great

42RosyRosie: You’re rocking the first three colors! ❤️ (I’m gonna ignore the green)

JB is a hashbrown: I'm hella jealous of her hair! It is gorgeous.

Tinna: I loved the purple,and it suited her so well :o

Stiainin Beglan: I'm jealous of how the Mofajang left you with curls... It left me with string hair and colour all over my clothes, face and neck.

cellcat: Hi Nico, What products do you use to keep your curls shiny looking and also to prevent frizziness? Your curls have a really good weight to them and they shine well. Thanks in advance.

Ruby Darling: I would like to see a light natural blonde try this... because I'm a natural blond, and once I tried a pink hair wax for a costume and it stained my actual hair.... so it would be cool to see a natural blonde to try different products to find one that washes out completely before I try this again lol

mtndewdev: glad you guys did this on someone with curly dark hair

Riki D.: I’d definitely get that manic panic cause I have dark hair and that copper color would look good on me

Bethie Bee: I love your hair!! And even though it wasn't pink, that red hair looked awesome.

nanda t: i thought the pink dye showed up super pretty on her hair! red hair suits her so well

Erika Steinhart: It was so nice to see on someone with hair like mine!!

Kathy P: 1:34 is no one gonna talk about how he’s staring at her like he in love or sum?!?!?! bruh

Molly Taylor: HOW IS YOUR HAIR SO FRIZZ FREE?! Even when she TOUCHES it, it doesn't frizz up!

dogs&drawings !: She's soo pretty! I love the hair! I love every colour! I love her lipstick!!

Wood Dweller: I need to try this for my cosplay look instead of the spray color I get from Party City !

kelly b: Ziya is growing up so fast I'm impressed ! She's the sweetest and cutest little toddler ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

Tohru: I really appreciate this video! You did the hard work so I don't have to <3

Greek_Valkyrie: Darker hair and bright colors done work well unless you bleach. Dark colors on dark hair show up better since they are in similar spectrum. So this was neat to see.

Darkness 101: I love you’re hair it looks sooo fluffy!!!!

TackyGal: Wouldn't it have been more informative to have used the same color from each brand? Or used multiple colors from one brand? Having said that this video is still neat.

Rebecca Marrujo: It's been a long time since I've seen someone as pretty as her

Nouchaline: It makes me soooooo happy that a curly haired brunette is trying it out!

Taryn Rose: The purple looked amazing as well as the blue

Ho Chi Hung: Your hair looks amazing<3

Hoseok is actually your bias: The last colour looked like broccoli green
