What Colour Is Good Dye Young Rock Lobster?
Rock Lobster is an electric red with subtle pink undertones. The finished colour will depend on the starting level and tone of your hair.
- Level 10: Produces the brightest and most vibrant Rock Lobster red.
- Level 9: Creates a vivid red and can help cover the yellow tones commonly found in lightened blonde hair.
- Level 8: Expect a deeper, rich maroon-red result.
- Level 7: Adds a noticeable red tint, although the colour may fade more quickly.
- Darker Hair: Results will be more subtle and will depend heavily on your natural starting colour.
How To Use
For the brightest result, start with pre-lightened hair. Good Dye Young recommends its semi-permanent colours for hair between Levels 7 and 10, depending on the intensity you want to achieve.
Always carry out a strand test before colouring your entire head and wear protective gloves to prevent staining.
- Apply Rock Lobster directly to clean, dry hair.
- Divide the hair into manageable sections.
- Apply the colour generously, making sure each section is fully saturated.
- Leave the colour on for at least 30 minutes.
- Rinse thoroughly using cool water.
- Do not shampoo or condition during the initial rinse.
For longer-lasting colour, wait at least 24 hours before your first shampoo and use cool water when washing your hair.
Why Choose Good Dye Young Rock Lobster?
Rock Lobster is a great choice if you want a strong, noticeable red rather than a darker burgundy or subtle red tint. Its pink undertones give the colour extra vibrancy while keeping the finished shade firmly within the red family.
The semi-permanent formula gradually fades with washing, allowing you to enjoy bold colour without committing to permanent hair dye.
Conditioning Semi-Permanent Formula
Good Dye Young combines professional-quality pigments with a rich conditioning cream base. The formula acts much like a hydrating hair mask while depositing colour onto the hair.
Key ingredients include Hydrolysed Rice Protein, Sunflower Seed Oil and Glycerin to help condition the hair and maintain softness and shine.
