    How To Use

    • Step 1: To create the best blank canvas for your color, we recommend that you first lighten your hair with our easy-to-use GDY Lightening Kit. This is because our semi- permanent dye shows up best on level 9 or 10 light blonde hair. You can use DYEposit in Platinum to pre-tone the hair to remove any yellow tones.
    • Step 2: Squeeze your color into the GDY Biodegradable Tool Kit. Remember: wear gloves to prevent staining on your hands.
    • Step 3: Do a strand test on a piece of hair in the lower back portion of your head before applying the color all over your hair to ensure you love the look!
    • Step 4: Divide your hair into 4 equal sections and apply dye directly onto dry hair. Make sure the color is fully saturated throughout each section by applying a dollop of color for every two inch portion of your hair. Gently emulsify/massage into the hair to ensure coverage.
    • Step 5: Let the color sit on your hair for at least 30 minutes.
    • Step 6: Rinse very well with cool water only. If desired, use Color Kind Wash and Rinse to remove any residual dye. Shampoo and conditioner are not required, however.
    • Step 7: Style your freshly dyed locks just the way you like.

    Please bring more GDY to Ulta!

    I absolutely adore Good Dye Young and it's my go to for colorful hair. I just wish more shades were available along with the hair care products (I love the scrub)! I must say though if you're having issues with longevity then I would recommend looking into hair care tips for direct semi permanent dy...

    Envious of the reviewer who said theirs wouldn't wash out - mine did after 1 wash (Matrix color safe shampoo) T_T after also applying unevenly on my hair (waited required duration - 35 - 40 mins) ✊ the uneven part wasn't too big of a deal - looked cute it if would have stayed put, albeit weird since...

    Reformulations still cannot get it right.

    I ordered on launch, orange was dark/rock lobster-esque red. Tried again and the reformulations are darker and still red. I am consistently disappointed in the orange shades including Riot and Toxicity. I love the consistency and the bleach. It is a shame. GDY get your orange sorted.

    Pigmented and long lasting

    Got the purple dye and mixed the entire thing with some leftover blue ion and blue strawberry leopard for a navy color. I've tried the other ones alone and it'd wash out so fast but this go has been so good. Color has faded a little bit despite it being a month and me washing with hot water. Doesn't seem to bleed as much as other brands either.

    Ive used several dye brands and ive found that their colors tend to stick really well, I've done Ex-Girl, Rock Lobster, and next up is Ppl Eater. The dye is very vibrant and lasts really well and I will not be switching brands ever again

    From salinas, ca

    I was so happy to try pink puff, it was a lot more orange toned than a powder pink, think PEACH-y. My hair is lightened to platinum and for some reason, you could see brassy tones (maybe the orange-y tone brought that out). It faded out super quick within the first wash (used all color-safe products & cold water). I wanted to love this color as it looks soo pretty coming out the tube, but it was very underwhelming. I used 2 other pink hair dyes along GDY Pink Puff for test strips, and this one was super uneven and once again, washed out super quick, and faded to an ugly yellow-pinky-orange (& my hair usually takes well with dyes). I was really excited for this color, but is no good.

    Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend

    I was new to vivid color when I tried GDY four years ago and now it is all I'll ever use! Ex Girl, Rock Lobster, PPL Eater, and Riot all have been great! Easy to apply, lasts several weeks with care (cool water washes, heat styling protection, etc). Favorite brand! Definitely recommend their lightening kit too!

    Q
    Do these need developer ? Its my first time purchasing this product. ): i dont see anything about developer being needed
    Asked by Angel
    Official Answer By Good Dye Young - Brand Engage
    Thanks for reaching out. Our semi-permanent colors do not need to be mixed with a developer. You can use the color straight from the tube. You may seal the unused portion and use it later. The product will last up to 12 months after opening. For best results, we do recommend you pre-lighten your hair. In general, virgin hair (hair that has never been pre-lightened or dyed with developer-based color) is the strongest and least porous hair and therefore, will most likely need to be pre-lightened before you choose to dye it with a semi-permanent brand. We understand pre-lightening is not the path for everyone for many different reasons. If you have dark hair, here are some colors that may work for you. Ex-Girl, All In This Together, Rock Lobster, PPL Eater, Dream BigWas this answer helpful to you
    Q
    Will the Blue show up my dark hair?
    Asked by Denim Queen
    Official Answer By Good Dye Young - Brand Engage
    Thanks for reaching out. While our blue semi-perms tend to be very pigmented shades, results depend on your starting level and hair health. Good Dye Young Semi-Permanent color does not use any harsh chemicals like hydrogen peroxide or ammonia to change your hair color. It acts as a stain, taking the scariness and damage out of dying your hair. In general you can expect the following results from our blue dyes. Blue Ruin: can be applied to levels 5 through 10. On levels 5-7, Blue Ruin will appear as a dark blue that's more visible in the sunlight. This is our most pigmented blue. Dream Big: can be applied to levels 3 through 8. On levels 3-7, Dream Big will darken hair, and add a slight blue tint.Was this answer helpful to you
    Q
    Will it cover grey?
    Asked by MizzDomina
    Official Answer By Good Dye Young - Brand Engage
    Thanks for reaching out. Some semi-perm our colors may add a tint to grey hair, but for the most part semi-permanent dye does not cover grey hair because cuticles tend to be closed. Semi-permanent dye molecules are larger and will sit on the outer portion of the cuticle if not pre-lightened, resulting in a less vibrant color. The farther the dye is pushed into the cuticle, the more vibrancy and longevity it will have. Pre-Lightening natural or virgin hair before a Good Dye Young application allows the cuticle to open so the dye molecules soak into the hair better. We understand that pre-lightening might not be your preference. If that’s the case, we recommend colors like Ex-Girl, Narwhal, PPL Eater, Dream Big, and All In This Together on your virgin grey hair for a less-vibrant final result.Was this answer helpful to you
    Q
    How many bottles would I need for my full head?
    Asked by gabby
    Official Answer By Good Dye Young - Brand Engage
    Hi! If you plan on dyeing your full head, the number of tubes you'll need depends on the length, thickness and texture of your hair. The average hair length will most likely need 2 bottles of dye for their hair. If your hair is longer or thicker than average, you would then adjust accordingly.Was this answer helpful to you
    Q
    How would I take care of it on my hair I have very curly hair and I still want to know if I can use it on my hair without causing any bad damage.
    Asked by emmy
    Official Answer By Good Dye Young - Brand Engage
    Good Dye Young Semi-Permanent color does not use any harsh chemicals like hydrogen peroxide or ammonia to change your hair color. It acts as a stain, taking the scariness and damage out of dying your hair. Our semi-permanent color is safe for your curls. We do have recommended starting levels for each shade, so you can find a shade that can work over your current level. If you are considering lightening your hair, some lightening products can dry out your hair depending on the hair's health when you start the lightening process. Our Lightening Kit it formulated with conditioning ingredients like Aloe Vera, Coconut Oil, and Soy Protein that help keep hair feeling soft, strong, and nourished. To maintain your vibrant color, re-apply the color every 10-20 washes, and use cool water and heat protection for the most vibrant results.Was this answer helpful to you
