New Color Showers...?!

Re: New Color Showers...WTF?!

Well, it has been a while since I logged in last and I've missed some updates. Anyway, I applied the cobre this weekend and ended up with yellow hi-lites. This stuff is horrible!! I will never try Color Showers again. I look a hot mess. The only thing I liked was the fact it was in a gel form. It was real easy to apply with no mess. It's a shame they screwed up.

Uh oh.. I just ordered mahogany, cobre, and negro. I was going to mix Mahogany and Cobre... (only if it's red when I open the cobre)..

Wow, i'm sorry that happened to you. Ever since i've started using color showers it has never let me down, even when i mistakenly used the new formula. I'm speechless.erplexed

I'm really starting to think the Cobre was a bad batch. ACEA, where'd you order from? I need to hear from you and *Fab* as soon as possible. I'm trying to see if my theory/suspicions can be confirmed. Oh, hopefully I'm not sounding bossy that's not my intention.

Re: New Color Showers...WTF?!

Thanks Wheezy. Your hair looks incredible! I love the way the color came out and it looks great on you.

Re: New Color Showers...WTF?!

Why did I order mined yesterday and it just came...that was super fast shipping!!
I will do it next week and post pics..i brought red...

Re: New Color Showers...WTF?!

Oops...BRB. Okay, I have a few more pics in my New Color Showers album on Fotki, but here are a couple side by side pics of the Cobre Colorshowers. The original is obviously red and copper and the other is the green replacement. If you see green, this is NOT the original!

ETA: SO SORRY! The other pics were ginormous!

Re: New Color Showers...WTF?!

You know i was thinking about tis thread today cause i wanted to get the chocolate to give my brown a lil umph...lol... glad it came back up

My mahogany wasn't green. It was reddish brown. I told you guys its looked like I had been killing pigeons...

I dont know if my info helps you theory but I bought mine on Amazon.com and it seems fine but i have nothing to compare it too

Re: New Color Showers...WTF?!

ok eisani. this is what i have. my cobre is copper in the bottle but when it makes a mess and gets on the outside of the bottle i do see a yellow/green tint.

i also got the burgandy color which i have not used yet. when i look at the color in the bottle it is surely burgandy. dark burgandy and really pretty i cant wait to use it.

the distributer i think the bottle sais mimor or something like that. so the cobre might be bad.

Re: New Color Showers...WTF?!

mines does look yellowish green...should i not use it on my hair?

 

[Eisani]

Re: New Color Showers...WTF?!

Did you order the Red Copper? I would highly suggest doing a strand test first. I don't think that green/gold color is going to produce a red shade on it's own, it's impossible. Why'd they have to go and mess with that one?

thats how mines is as well..inside the bottle and when i pour it out it looks deep burgandy, but when i take the qtip and pull a bit out of the dollop, it looks yellow green..

Re: New Color Showers...WTF?!

Okay yall! My cobre is yellow green too. I already put out the emergency text to Eisani. I'm slow on how to do a strand test.. lol.. I got a piece of hair and coated it with the green stuff and came back in here to get back on the PC...

The mahogany is dark red. Should I be sending the cobre back to amazon? Or an email to bluebeez?

I personally would contact Blue Beez directly since they are the seller. You get my txt(s) this morning? So if y'all ordered from Amazon/Blue Beez, it may dispel my theory about the color batch. These things should have lot #'s though, right? I'ma have to check my bottles when I get home. MAD.

Re: New Color Showers...WTF?!

Ok, I didnt do my strand test last night cause i was too tired...but i will do it today...but i did notice that the paper that i put the cobre on last night dried red....off to put some on right now...

Re: New Color Showers...WTF?!

I know one thing...y'all got me SHOOK! I am going to my fave dom BSS after work. I hope there is still some more CS OG in stock.

Y'all be careful with that yellow green mess!

 

[asummertyme]

Re: New Color Showers...WTF?!

Well i did a strand test and to be honest i dont really see much of a diffrence at all..maybe i didnt use enuff hair...but i know one thing..the little bit of hair that i did do is so soft......but so far no green or yellow...i may do a bigger patch later on...

 

[wheezy807]

Re: New Color Showers...WTF?!

This is weird, lol. So it's yellow green in the bottle but when applied to the hair it's red?

I think the rojisimo is good. Wait, you started using other colors...yea, check your BSS for the OG

Now Filthyfresh said she used the yellow green and her came out yellow green...I would definitely suggest testing more hair. I only say that because when I initially just mixed the greenish cobre with rojisimo, I got a deep, beautiful chestnut with no hint of red whatsoever. Be very careful.

And the last time I went they were almost down to the bare minimum which is why i was hyped about NY. I used like a 4 color (grape, gold, carabo, marron) when I relaxed my hair on the 1st. But I am getting down to nothing and I get nervous when my stash is low. I havent seen my beloved rojo or negro in months at my spot.

No, mines looks deep red or burgandy in the bottle..but when you tap it with your finger and wipe on a napkin..it streaks out yellow green...I hope that makes sense..
now i just did another strand test with more hair this time and i am gonna leave it in for a hour...

It should be a deep red color (almost like blood) in the bottle. Usually when I smear it on my finger it has a yellowish-orange tint to it. So do your bottle contents look like the this?

 

[*fabulosity*]

Re: New Color Showers...WTF?!

Mine don't look like that! Mine looks like that picture you posted earlier E with the comparison. I can't knowingly put some green **** on my hair! I told you bluebeez tried to tell me.. "it dry red".. yeah ok. On my brawny..it's still green and that was 8 hrs ago! lol. I ain't messing with that ****... lol. I'm up under the dryer with the mahogany mad than a MUG... because it looked dark as sin.. knowing I'mma come out my normal dark brown/black hair..

My E (isani) is the best... <<hugs>> you had a homie at 7 in the a.m... like let's work this out..lol..!

 

[asummertyme]

Re: New Color Showers...WTF?!

Nope, it deff does not look like that, its much deeper....
so i did a strand test and it really didnt take at all, but my grey hair turned yellow as i just looked in the natural sunlight..i am glad i only did a lil peice..ima call them now

Re: New Color Showers...WTF?!

Bluebeez or mimor? I already busted a vein earlier on bluebeez.. they like.. you pay for ship both ways..we no take back opened item... it posed to be green.. formula change.. I KID YOU NOT...this is exactly what they said to me.

 

[asummertyme]

Re: New Color Showers...WTF?!

I dont even want a refund..but i do want a new color...yellow highlights.!! outa control! I am so glad i did a strand test..

 

[*fabulosity*]

Re: New Color Showers...WTF?!

That's where I was at with it.. I said I'll send back the cobre and send me negro.. that's when she handed the phone over to someone who wanted me to pay to ship it back and for them to ship it back to me..shipping three times... HTN! That's insane.
