I found that it took about 3 or 4 lots of dye to give my hair the colour I was looking for as my hair is naturally very dark. I found the instructions incredibly easy to follow which is brilliant.
I generally tend to buy this dye when it's on offer so they're generally really good value for money.

It has really good vibrant colour
