this product is kinda cool for people like me who would like to change their hair almost daily. it is this revolving brush thing that picks up color out of the s little pots, and deposits it on the hair. this is totally a temporary color, and it washes out with shampoo. (the directions say two applications of clarifying shampoo, but it came right off with one application of regular shampoo for me.) some of the colors look totally natural, while others look totally fake. it all depends on your mood.
go to here to check it out.

Have you tried all the colors? The picture makes it look like it colors light over dark, does that work ok?

It seems to be out of stock.


Just looking for a few good hair slaves - is that too much to ask?

e-katherine,
my hair is pretty light to begin with, so i dont know how it would work on dark hair. the kit does contain some metallic colors, so i think those would work well over the darker colors (after all, metallic colors over black.) i got mine at kauffmans in the personal care section. it costs 24.99, and i think its well worth it

and as far as highlighting with bleach, i suppose it would wrork, if you really wanted it too. i like it cuz i can change my look with no damage to my hair.

Does it work all right with short hair, or is it just a long hair toy?
More awesome than a manatee!

i dont have long hair, maybe 4 or 5 inches. but, kuroneko, it looks as if your hair may be too short. my hair just barely fits into the slot that the hiar goes through. i like it alot. ive used it two days in a row now, and i think it works really well. ive used the blue color (kind of a fun change) the non-metallic red, and the "natural" brown. they wash out easily with one application of a low-sudsing moisture shampoo. the more natural colors( they have two shades of brown, 3 shades of blond, some auburn colors, and an almost black) seem to go on less "gunky". the metallic and blue (i guess in need to deposit more bold colors) can feel gunky until the color dries.

If your hair is short, does it just tip the hair when you use the machine, or does it actually streak?  My hair is probably close to the same length at the moment, I think. . .

there is about a half an inch of hair tat is left oncolored. this is usually not a problem for me, as i usually just do low-lights on the under layers. when i do the area around my part, i have to touch up the roots with the eyebrow brush included in the kit. the instructions say this is normal, and to expect to have to touch up any length hair.
