Review: Revlon Colorsilk Burgundy


48, Burgundy 



Yay! Conditioner for you to use
Hair color before

This is going to be a very quick review. 

There is no after picture because when I tried to take a photo of the result, the colors won't show up on camra and ended up looking the same as the before photo.

I didn't wash my hair the day before dyeing my hair because in the instructions of this hair dye, it actually said it's better not to, and that it's best if you apply it on 'dirty hair' so the product will 'stick' to your hair better.

If you've dyed your hair before, then you should only leave this on for max 25 min; if you have virgin hair, leave it on for 30 minutes (not too sure so read the directions yourself :P)

I left it on for about 30-35 minutes total on the roots because it took me about 9 minutes to apply it all over my hair, starting from the roots to the bottom, and then I waited for 25 minutes.

The result is that my roots went burgundy(only some in the front, with a lot of dye) but my ends remained the same, if not, slightly darker than before because the burgundy color is darker than my light brown. 

My roots weren't burgundy, they were more like..red-ish brown (indoors) and only when you go outdoors, then you'll be able to see bright, purple-red burgundy color. It's on the brown-ish, more darker side, so it's not superr bright. 

I'm not sure if this dye is long-lasting as it claims because I went to the beach for 5 days after a week of coloring my hair, when I got back from the beach the color has washed off...or bleached off by the sun? I'm not sure. Either way my light brown ends were definitely back, and even my roots were brown/light brown again. 

I really thought heading to the beach would be a good idea to make the burgundy color even more intense, if not, brighter because whenever I dye my hair brown it's always the best if I get some sun afterwards so the color can get lighter and more obvious...guess it doesn't work for burgundy!

My hair felt fine afterwards, there is no breakage of hair or dry hair; possibility a few more split ends here and there. But! Even so, do condition your hair every night! Protection is key!!!

What I like:
  • Affordable 
  • Minimum damage to hair
  • The smell is tolerable 
What I don't like:
  • Bad color pay-off (maybe I just needed 2 bottles...eh)
  • It's not long-lasting
Rate: 2/5
Only because the color isn't strong at all 

Tip: 
Put vaseline around your hairline and down your neck to prevent your face from being stained by the hair dye during the dyeing process :)

Here is my review on another Revlon ColorSilk (Blonde-ish color):
