Advantages: Great colours. Disadvantages: Only 3 colours at the moment. Oh and it can be a bit messy!
Schwarzkopf LIVE Red Luminance
Red Passion
I have been colouring my hair now for nearly 10 years. I do go to the hairdressers to get it done properly but I need to ‘top it up’ as red shades fade quickly. I now get parts of my (dark brown) hair bleached for maximum effect.
I am constantly looking for new brighter shades and I was very impressed when LIVE first came out. Well now for those who go for the red shades there is Red Luminance. These ...

Advantages: easy to mix, apply, and a good effect Disadvantages: not as long lasting over bleached hair
I hate my natural hair colour. It’s so boring and normal. Well, I say I hate it, I can’t really remember what it is as I’ve been dying my hair red since I was about fifteen. I started out dying it just a brown-red, and progressed from there to full-on pre-lightened hair, and then garish red/pink shades a day later.
I’ve never been one for temporary or semi-permanent dyes, as the only couple of times I’ve tried them, I’ve liked the colour so much ...

An odd blonde moment Review ofSchwarzkopf Live Hair Colour-Permanentby
kazziebears
Advantages: Easy to use and leaves your air in fantastic condition Disadvantages: Reds fade quicker
...Patience my friends!
I have chosen Schwarzkopf for brand and Red Planet as the shade. There are several shades of red in the range but I went for the most dramatic one, never being a shrinking violet! It looks gorgeous on the box, real coppery red (it’s a pity they didn’t use a model with a longer fringe. Check the eyebrows out, they look ridiculous! Mind you, you must NEVER use this to dye eyebrows)
It is the second time I have ...

Bloody red Review ofSchwarzkopf Live Hair Colour-Permanentby

Advantages: People notice you Disadvantages: People will notice you
...very long, thick hair) of Schwarzkopf Live Permanent Colour. I chose the brightest, most punky colour with the aplomb of an alcoholic choosing the Sambucca over a pint of ale.
The colour I chose is NO. 35 Real Red. No sh** Sherlock. It is Ronald MacDonald red, none of you shy Irish colleen here. Be afraid, very afraid. I love it - its a bit Annie Lennox.
My hair was already dyed - Clairol No.100 Copper Blonde and the new colour obliterated this. ...

...DYE IT WITH THEN?
I used Schwarzkopf Live ‘unlimited colors’ range (Bloody American spelling!) and the shade I chose was R37 – Hypnotic Red – permanent. I asked Blurbubble for advice yesterday as I didn’t want my hair to go green or something and I wasn’t sure if it was possible to dye bleached blonde hair safely. She gave me lots of good advice, but unfortunately our local chemist didn’t stock the brands ...

...fancy 'Darkest Violet' from the Schwarzkopf Live Unlimited Colours range (well purple is my favourite colours and this is the closest to purple that I have ever come across).
Oh! but silly me was looking at the non-permanent range. Panic riddled my body as I look and look, oh surely they must have something more permanent, what a fool it was starring at me all the time on this huge display shelf! Doh!

Advantages: interesting shades to pick from, cost Disadvantages: very thick so not the easiest colour to apply.
I bought the Schwarzcopf Illuminance shade Ultra Violet (perminant) for £3.26 in Superdrug. I have very dark brown hair and most hair dyes do not usually take to my hair, but I didn't want to bleach it first. This one said on the box that it lightens hair and colours it at the same time, and even works in dark hair! I had to give it a go.
I opened the box to find some pretty standard contents. There was a full instruction leaflet with a set of ...

Advantages: A good strong colourant Disadvantages: As messy as any other hair dye
I am always on the hunt for vibrant and vivid permanent hair dyes and after seeing the adverts for Schwarzkopf's Live range I was definitely interested. Mother re-affirmed my thought that this would be a strong hair colour after dying her greying locks with one of their red/auburn products and being horrified to see she looked like Chucky Rugrat on a bad hair day.
In readiness for my holiday next week I took time out last night to invite mother ...

Advantages: Easy to use Disadvantages: Have to keep doing the roots once you start
I'm always dying my hair, it cheers me up when I'm a bit fed up and it can alter the way you feel.
I've never used Schwarzkopt Live before and went into a shop called Savers before the New Year and saw it on the shelf priced at 3.49.
I usually pay around 5.00 for my hair dye, so was surprised to see this so cheap.
The colour I chose is cool champagne.
Having recently gone light brown and not liking it, I thought it best to dye my hair again ...

Advantages: works really well and the conditioner is great! Disadvantages: not everyone will like it and it wont work for everyone
My 3rd and final hair op is on the hair dye that changed my world around… Well almost anyway. I’ve dyed my hair since I was 13. I really fancied this guy called David Holbrook and he was saying to all his mates how he loved ginger spice because she was sexy and he loved her hair. Well that was it I rushed out and bought the wash in wash out colour called “Spice” which looked the spitting image of the colour that Ginger Spice ...

Advantages: vibrant colour, full of life Disadvantages: fades quickly
I went for the violet vision in permanent because I wanted to add a little colour into my life and boy did I do that. I loved the colour it gave me, pure colour that looked simply brilliant! And to say it was purple I was well pleased.
Using the product is tricky, because there are so many different bottles and tubes and you have to attach them to each other and all sorts oh did I have some fun. As well as the colour and applicator you get a bottle ...

Advantages: Long lasting colour, Colours even wakward hair Disadvantages: Roots
Overall View:
Wow...This is the only Do It Yourself product that I have ever found which will colour my hair! I have always wanted purple streaks through my hair, but I could never get any dyes to work. When I tried this one and it worked, the streaks looked so good that I decided to go for it and do all of my hair in purple.
It is easy to use, although make sure that you use in a well ventilated room as it smells intense!
The mixture covers ...

Ruby Red Review ofSchwarzkopf Live Hair Colour-Permanentby
uk_girl_nikki
Advantages: easy to use, bright. Disadvantages: If you have long thick hair then you may need to buy 2, it can be messy.
I originally wrote this op on 15th April this year. As I am bored and it was one of my first cr***y ops so I thought I would re-write it.
I first tried this hair dye about three years ago. I had tried many different hair dyes in the past but as I have got thich hair then you couldnt really tell that I had dyed it. This particular hair dye had been advertised on TV loads of times so thought I would try it in ruby red.
I cant remember how much ...
