Works, but read...
I wonder if people are dying their hair after it's freshly washed and conditioned and that's why they are having a bad experience. You Must Not condition your hair before coloring using a clarifying shampoo. And you should wash hair the day before you dye, not the day of.

Bad hair dye job
Horrible. Tried it because its demi-permanent and I have a lot of gray hairs so I thought it would blend nicely as other demi-permanent dyes. However, I ended up with a super ugly and very unnatural color. My only hope is to find ways to wash it out as much as possible.

Not accurate color
Don't buy the violet dye if you want purple hair, it turned my hair fully red, but other than that it works fine

doesn't work on black hair
Did almost nothing to my daughter's black hair. You could *kind of* see a burgundy tint in the sunshine.

Hi there sarakins, thank you for sharing your experience with us! We're sorry to hear that the BR2 - Dark Intense Burgundy didn't show up as vibrantly as you and your daughter hoped. Hair coloring is a fascinating science! When applying a burgundy shade to naturally black hair, the result is going to look more like a 'tone-on-tone' effect. Because black hair is naturally packed with deep pigments, it is difficult to lighten or lift the rich dark pigments enough to see the vibrant red and burgundy tones. That is why the beautiful burgundy shade is most visible when the light hits it in the sunshine!

not the right color
the color came out totally wrong! I bought purple and it's like light cranberry. so disappointed!
1 reply from Garnier Consumer Care team - 6 days ago
Hello Ireland! We are so sorry to hear that the Dark Intense Violet did not turn out to be the deep purple shade you were expecting. Hair color results can vary beautifully depending on your starting hair color, texture, and any previous color treatments, and on naturally dark or previously dyed hair, violet tones can sometimes lean toward a warmer, red-toned cranberry direction. For your next color, we suggest checking the starting color guide on the back of the box, and a great tip to ensure you get the exact cool purple tones you want is to perform a strand test on a small, hidden section of hair first to preview the final color result before applying it all over.

best purchase ever
love it!!!!! I dyed my hair red to match my little girl's natural red hair at beginning of last summer it is still vibrant red I know I need to do a touch up here soon but love it and my hair is like dark chocolate brown so if you're worried that's not going to show up it will show up it looks professional when you're inside and then when you walk outside it just pops.

I've used garnier before BUT this time was different (it's been a good year and some change form my last use). I knew my roots would best take color, and my hair was already lightened BUT WHY IS MY HAIR AND ESP ROOTS RED. The box says intense violet. While I'm not sobbing, I genuinely had a 10 minute crash out thinking it was just the lighting. I even went outside and it was all red. The pro is that it definitely covered and colored my hair. The con is that my hair is RED NOT violet/purple.
