I started buying my dye from the beauty supply place near us when the Feria changed from permanent to semi-permanent. When Feria first came out with their 'Starry Night' that's what I used for years. Then I bought it one day to redo my hair/roots and it started fading in a couple of weeks. I was buying dye a lot sooner than I had to previously because it was fading even though it still said 'permanent' on the box. I think that's false advertising. I got sick of it and started using the real permanent dye from Sally's. Now, I am as happy with my hair and the longevity of the dye as when I first started using the 'Starry Night.
Why do people change the formula on products that were great before? I remember when regular Clearasil had salicylic acid in it. Then they changed it and started calling that one 'ultra'(and charging a lot more) and the 'regular' Clearasil has no salicylic acid last time I looked. Cha, stupid corporations charging more for the same thing! I switched to using the St. Ives medicated scrub because it was cheaper and had the salicylic acid.
Stupid commercial-sounding post! /olde lady rant

Is Sally's actually the brand? I couldn't find it. I'm looking for a different black hair dye from the Feria I used last time. Preferably one that doesn't smell for quite so long - Feria took over a day to get the smell out and I was feeling sick from it before it finished.
