Liese Bubble Hair Color - Chiffon Beige

Hello dolls!!

A quick review on the Liese/Prettia bubble dye in Chiffon Beige!

For the past 3 years, I've been using the Liese bubble dye, rotating between Chiffon Beige and Milk Tea Brown cause they were the lightest shade available.

Every year when I go home to Malaysia for the summer, my suitcase is bound to carry 2-3 of these dyes back to Melbourne cause I'm too cheap to get my hair professionally coloured at the salons. =P

These dyes are super convenient and basically I'm not worried about creating a mess with spilling dye etc.

Here's my hair after dying them. DidIjusthearyougohuhwhat?

No I did not go ombré on purpose!

The dye did not cover my regrowth on properly (I'll tell you why later) where the top dark brown part was 'virgin' black hair and the lighter part was dyed using Chiffon Beige previously.

Yes I let my regrowths go crazy, but hey I had a rather good ombré look going on so it was all good.

Check it out for yourself here! =D

Back to my 'two-toned' hair, I'm guessing the amount of dye wasn't enough to fully cover my hair. My hair's about 60cm long (yes, I measured) and from my experience, the dye works perfectly to cover regrowths for hair roughly between the shoulders and bra line. Longer than that and the dye won't be at it's full capability. However, you gotta take into account the thickness and texture of your hair as well!

When I dyed my rather long hair, the bubble did not foam up like the recommended picture above. Instead, it looked more like damp hair. Previously when my hair was way shorter, the foam really built up and I was able to make a mohawk with the bubble party in my hair. I'm serious. I have pictures as proof. ^.~

I guess my 'theory' was backed up when I tweeted Jennifer with a picture of my hair and I was like 'Boo my hair colour's gone crazy.' and she replied that her's turned out the same as well! Lol twitter twins~!! Her hair was super long as well and I figured out we'd probably need 2 bottles of dye to get all regrowths covered. Here's her post on using the bubble dye!

So without further ado, here's some pictures!

Overview: ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♡

❝ Pros ❞

♥ Great shade with very little red undertones. However, mine does fade to a reddish undertone after a month or so.

♥ Convenient and fuss free compared to other types of DIY home dye.
♥ Great for people dying their hair themselves for the first time. You can easily do it without aid and it isn't hard!

❝ Cons ❞
♥ It stinks like *#$%@ lol seriously! Make sure your 'salon' has good ventilation or I promise you, you'd be running in circles screaming for fresh air.
♥ Needs 2 bottles for hair longer than 40cm (I'm making a rough guess. Please factor in hair texture, method etc).

Have you tried Liese / Prettia? What's your fave colour??

Cheers!!
