I have. I use Beyond The Zone now because it stains my tub less & costs less. The results are usually the same. I apply it to dry, product-free, clean hair.
Here is my hair after using Beyond The Zone Crimson Storm & Wild Red:
It's the same color I get using Vampire Red from Manic Panic.
Here is my hair after the color has "faded" a few months later:
And after a touch up:
My color lasts a long time (months on top of months
) and I think that's because I put it on while my hair is dry and not damp. I also leave it on overnight.
It bleeds when you wash or if your hair gets wet but it isn't terrible.
