Nina- Hair dye used:Special Effects Electric Blue
I have used Special Effects colors since 2001. I mostly now love the Electric
Blue color. It is beautiful and vibrant when you first apply it. I usually get
my hair bleached, because my natural color is brown. But once it washes out,
probably not until about 3 weeks into washing my hair every other day, it turns
into this beautiful purple (as you can see in the picture of me looking down)
I just LOVE it!
The face painted picture is a day after freshly applied hair dye.
Chie-Hair Dye used: Special Effects Blue Velvet, Electric Blue, Limelight, and Fishbowl
Blue Velvet, Electric Blue mixed with Limelight, and Fish Bowl, allapplied in
a mottled haphazard kind of way. I wasn't wearing gloves,so I was trying to
do it as quickly as possible, so I wouldn't end uplooking completely like sonic
the hedgehog. My hair is normally dark-brown, but I've bleached and dyed it
alot, so before it was a light purple-pink as faded from blue velvet several
months before. I did re-bleach my hair, as I had a significant chunk of unbleached
roots and had just gotten a hair cut. I have been dyeing my hair for 6 years
at least, but the last timeI dyed it was a few months prior, probably 2 or 3,
as I had significantly longer hair and was running out of dye.

Linda- Hair Dye used: Special Effects Electric Blue/Blue Mayhem. Atomic Pink
My name is Linda. I am a colorist at Mia Bella Salon in San Bruno, CA.
I've used your product Special effects for 7 years now and I am a huge fan of
it.
I use it on myself as well. I have to pre-Bleach my hair to a level 10 to get
this
vibrant of a color. It usually last up to 15-20 washes.
Sam- Hair Dye used: Special Effects Electric Blue
Here's a picture of myself with electric blue dye in my hair. The flash washed
it out a little, unfortunately. It was quite a bit brighter-looking in person
in natural light. It faded over time to purple and then pink :) It was dyed
over bleached hair, though not completely white bleached.
arSinal of TranceDoll Inc:
Hair Dye used: Special Effects various colors
asSinal had a 'colorfall' with a layered effect using Limelight, Iguana Green,
Electric Blue, Fishbowl Blue, Virgin Rose and Cupcake Pink.
Had naturally blonde hair, but has been dying it black for many years. So started
with black hair. We ONLY use Special Effects brand intense hair colors! Nothing
else has ever come close in longevity, intensity and eco friendly-ness! We recommend
SFX to anyone coloring hair!
Karen-Hair Dye used: Special Effects Electric Blue
I have dyed my hair using Special Effects hair dye for about 4 years,
including but not limited to fishbowl, electric
lue, blue mayhem, and deep purple. I use one dye at a time, no layering
or mixing, etc. My hair is naturally a very dark brown, so of course I
must bleach it with 40 volume before dying.
Calista-
Hair Dye used: Special Effects Electric Blue
It was dyed over top of light brown hair with blonde highlights and caught and
stuck to the hair very well!!
The picture was taken immediately after dyed and lasted for 3 to 4 weeks and
faded to a fushia which still looked good!
Pixi-
Hair Dye used: Manic Panic Ultra Violet, Special Effects Electric Blue, Blue
Mayhem, and Fishbowl
Methods used: My hair is naturally light brown, but I haven't seen it in thirteen
years. I bleached my hair first using a 20vol. developer, it became a light
blonde and still had some light pink in it (from using Atomic Pink previously).
Then I just randomly sectioned it off with clips, and dyed each section an individual
color. Fishbowl is on top, Ultraviolet is in the front, the Blue mayhem and
Electric blue covers the rest, with a few more random pieces of fishbowl! I
blow dried it all over and waited about an hour before rinsing.
Photos were taken about a day after dying.
Jenn-
Hair Dye used: Special Effects Midnight Blue, Fishbowl, Electric Blue, Pimpin
Purple &
Punky Colour Plum
I used Punky Colour Plum & Midnight Blue, and Special Effects Fishbowl.
Plum was added to the roots of some very faded Special Effects PimpinPurple
(done before w/ bleached hair).
For the blue part, it was overfaded Special
Effects Electric Blue that I bleached it more,
plus someroots, allowing the
previous blue to become very light, while letting the roots stop at a normal
yellow.
Added Fishbowl over it all, then added some Midnight Blue to the ends.This
picture is a couple days after dyeing.
Lesik-
Hair Dye used:
Pic 1-Special Effects Nuclear red, Electric Blue
Pic 2- Special Effects Electric Blue, Atomic Pink, Iguana Green, Deep Purple,
Pimpin Purple
When Lesik was 3 she wanted rainbow hair. We started using special effects and
haven't looked back. She will be 13 in a few days so we are pretty good judges
of the product. She is naturally blonde so I never had to use bleach and the
color has always been amazing. when she was younger, I would just layer the
colors when she wanted something new, but now we will bleach out the color that
she wants to change and go from there. The first pic is a combo of nuclear red
and electric blue. The second is electric blue, atomic pink,iguana green,deep
purple and pimpin purple. We have used every color special effects has ever
made. The colors that last the longest are atomic pink, deep purple and pimpin
purple. The electric blue also lasts but tends to look purple after about two
weeks. When we layer color we use rubberbands and foil and to make streaks we
use a toothbrush. All of the pictures are at least two weeks or more after coloring.
The only thing that seems to make the color fade fast is swimming. Other than
that it has always been perfect.
Jenna and Allyson-
Hair Dye used first photo:
Jenna- Rainbow: Special Effects Napalm Orange, Virgin Rose, Electric Blue, Deep
Purple
Allyson- Special Effects Napalm Orange and bleached blonde.
What
brand of hair dye did you use? Special Effects!! I love it and have the best
results with it. I recommend it (and funkyshop) to everyone who asks about my
hair, which in Fairbanks Alaska is alot of people. I'm easy to spot!
My rainbow hair is done with Napalm Orange, Virgin Rose, Electric Blue and Deep
Purple, in a fade, applied all at once in a back to front application. Daughter
Allyson's hair is Napalm and Bleach Blonde.
What color was your hair before you started? Medium Brown for both of us, we
bleach it out prior.
This is an ongoing process, it changes every 6-8 weeks. The rainbow hair photo
was about a month after I had dyed it, the atomic pink photo was about 3 weeks
after I had dyed it. (I'm dying my hair purple/blue/black even as I am typing
this.

The
aqua is Manic Panic-Atomic Turquoise & the blue is Special Effects-Electric

My color was a dyed dark brown.
Yes, I got as much previous old dye out then bleached the under-layer and bangs.
It's been about 3 months since I've dyed it these colors. In the pics it had
been about 3 weeks since I had.
