Overtone Update: Blue For Brown Hair

Hey welcome to my channel. My name is sarah. Thank you so much for clicking on this video. I didn't put my backdrop up today, because i'm thinking this is going to be just a very short update. Video and i didn't want to spend the time putting it up and taking it down if this is going to be like five minutes, but i just wanted to give a little update video on how my hair is doing with the blue for brown hair by overtone. I tried it for the first time, roughly a month ago, give or take a couple of days and my response in that video was elated, i loved it. I loved the color. I thought it was gorgeous and i adored the idea of having blue hair, but some things have changed since then. In my initial video i didn't show how it faded. I just showed the results of that day or the next day, and i assumed that the color would last a good while, like a couple or a few weeks, because that was my experience with the pink for brown hair that i applied and i may have gone A month before reapplying it again, however, my experience with the blue by overtone is much much different. I started noticing fading within like three days and not just a tiny bit of fading like major, fading i'll put a picture in of how it looked after the first application, and then i will also try and find how it looked once it started fading. So i assumed that i had done something wrong like maybe i didn't leave it on for long enough or just something like. Maybe i didn't saturate it, so i decided i would try it again, hoping that this time it would actually last by the way, there's a ton of background noise. So i apologize for that. There'S nothing! I can really do about it right now, like the initial application within a couple or a few days, i started noticing major fading, and i would also like to note that i wash my hair once a week, so it was fading without even being washed. I washed my hair and used the overtone and then the next time i washed my hair was when i reapplied the overtone, so it wasn't like. I was rinsing out the dye, which is typically what happens. It seemed to fade a lot quicker. The second time i will insert a picture here of what my hair looks like, but it looks basically like blonde or gray and that's just after the dye had been on for like a week and a half, i actually sent these pictures to overtone asking for help Because i wasn't sure if there was something i was doing wrong, if there was a technique i needed to be doing or if they just had any tips and tricks to make it last longer, because i was just really confused why i had such great success in Long lasting color with the pink but the blue seems to come out of my hair in a couple of days without me, even washing it. I still have not received a response on that, so hopefully they do eventually get back to me. After that i applied it. A third time this was so it went like a week, the second application a week and a half the third application, and this is about a week and a half after the third application. Again, when i did it a third time i loved it, it seemed like i got a deeper blue than i had previous times, because i left it on for a long time and i put a bag over my head to keep all of the moisture in then. I started noticing, two days later, that the dye was coming off on my hands as i styled it. I hadn't washed my hair, i hadn't been using other products other than heat protectant spray, but when i was finished curling my hair, there was a blue dye on my hands and it just doesn't seem right to be fading that quickly and coming off onto my hands. Two days after i applied it on their website, it says the color deposited by one used will last for approximately the same number of washes as a semi-permanent dye. Would the semi-permanent dyes i've used, have lasted numerous washes, but this doesn't even make it to one before it starts fading. So i'll show you what my hair looks like now like you can still see the blue, especially in the bottom. You can see it, but it is definitely faded. It looks kind of streaky kind of patchy. I guess, but it went from being a very deep blue to this light kind of greenish blue color. I still had some of the rose gold left, so i put it on the ends of my hair and that seems to be holding up pretty well, because i wanted to get like a blue to purple look and on the third application. I used up all of the coloring conditioner that i had so. I used an entire eight ounce jar in the matter of a month, considering it's 30 plus shipping, i'm gon na be a little bit hesitant before purchasing from overtone again, because that's a lot of money for only a month's worth of color and having to do three Applications like it was time consuming. I love the initial color that it produces, but it fades so quickly that i don't know if i want to put the time and effort into trying it again, it could just be the blue dye. I'Ve heard from different people that blue dye sometimes will never leave your hair or it'll wash right out immediately. The main thing that threw me off, though, is it coming off onto my hands as i was styling my hair, because i just don't think that's normal. I'Ve used overtone before care color, i used to use box dye when i was younger, and this is not something i've ever experienced. Typically, it just washes out gradually. I still really want blue hair when it was vibrant. I got a lot of compliments and i just feel more confident with blue hair, as opposed to just like my natural hair color. So i actually plan on going to sally's to try out arctic fox dyes, because i've heard really good things about them. Being long lasting and vibrant, so i think i'm also going to do a video on that. If you want to see it, you can subscribe little plug there but yeah. I don't really know how to end this video. I'M really disappointed in how the overtone turned out. If you've seen some of my other hair videos, you'll know that i speak very highly of overtone, so this is really disappointing that this product didn't work out. For me, i think i'm gon na try out some different brands before returning to overtone, and hopefully they respond to my email with some kind of knowledge that i can help keep my color um, but i think that's about it.
