Washed out fast
"I LOVE this shade. It is absolutely gorgeous and the exact shade of orange I wanted. However, it was completely gone after two washes 😞 I’ve never had trouble with GDY’s staying power before. I applied it over platinum hair, too"

This semi-permanent hair dye offers a rich, brown-based orange shade that is most vivid on level 8+ hair. Customers appreciate its nontoxic formula, which conditions and enhances hair shine. While opinions vary on the results and pigment, many love the smell and how it makes hair feel soft and vibrant.

"I've used Riot multiple times and its always shown up super vibrant even when my hair was level 4 medium brown. I've since lightened my hair significantly and have been using Prevana Bright Orange recently. Went swimming and it faded pretty bad. . . tried to use Toxicity while i wait for my Riot order to be delivered and it did not measure up. I left it on for an hour and couldn't really see a difference. The photo honestly makes it look way better than it does in person."
"Love the color, but it’s turned out somewhat patchy both times I’ve used it now and fully faded in less than two weeks. I bought this because I was looking for an alternative to Arctic Fox Ginger Flare (which can also be kind of patchy but doesn’t fade as quickly), but I’m definitely going back to Ginger Flare after I run out of Toxicity :/"
"Didn’t want a neon orange and this color looks perfect. It washes out quicker than I would hope for but that’s the price you pay for vivid colors and not doing 100% cold showers!"
"The color is exactly what I wanted and it made my hair so smooth! Usually dye makes my hair feel dry but not this one!"
"I love this stuff! Smells great and perfect color !"
"Very vibrant but not overly bright, very cute. Looks good when mixed together with Riot!"
"I absolutely love how the colors show up in the hair! They're so vivid and I always get so many compliments. I also love the formula, and all the colors I've tried have smelled amazing. The only downside I see if that the colors fade rather quickly, even when washing with cold water. This can be supplemented with GDY's color depositing conditioners to keep color fresh, but I don't entirely mind fading because I love changing my color often. I love this brand!"
"Beautiful copper tone!"
"This has been my go-to color for years and has never let me down. It’s a perfect vibrant orange that takes forever to fade when using proper colored hair care! I swear it takes about 2-3 months before I see that it is starting to fade! Absolutely my favorite color from good dye young!"
