I PUT BOX DYE TO THE TEST (IS IT REALLY THAT BAD?)

Who's the shit? You the shit.

My mother who is also a hair stylist, told me when it comes to professional hair color the only one guaranteed to work properly is REDKEN.
If you can’t get Redken, buy L’Oréal professional and developer from Sally’s or buy L’Oréal box dye.
Basically go Redken or go home because most hair color companies are no better than L’Oréal professional and are in fact made in sister factories.
L’Oréal is the queen of box dye, and you can’t convince me (cosmetology student) or my mother (professional hair stylist since 1983) any different.
My mother is a hair stylist can buy whatever she wants at cost price and choices to buy L’Oréal box dye.

Omg, the second one is exactly how I dye my hair 😂. Seeing it how it looks from the outside... Hmmmkey... Still processing...

I actually used the exact same box dye that you used XD (I have brown hair)
Over time the color turns more red than violet but I like the color though

I just buy a box that cost me $1.50 i'm gonna do it anyways

Brad putting on box dye literally looks like the videos he makes fun of 😂😂😂 why’d you start on the roots and rub in like shampoo?

He really didn't like or want the box dye to win. If you all know Feria is a higher end box dye and I like the feria brand when i used to dye my hair

I LITERALLY just bought tht box dye 🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️

Damn it Brad, why you gotta bullshit us switching shit around. I can't even trust you anymore.

For everyone saying he switched the heads, is that a possibility ? Yes of course. But if you pause at 19:36 in the side-by-side you can clearly see the stain on the box-dyed mannequin’s forehead.

I go to cosmetology school and our instructors only think box dye is bad because it leaves metallic salts in your hair where as professional dye doesn't. That's why when you dye box dyed hair with professional dye, it is patchy.

My mom dyes her hair with ammonia free box dye, and it seems to work well.

I think it also depends what you use. I use splat box dye and would say it’s pretty good. But ya totally switched them. There are stains at the very top in the part and that’s definitely from box dye you can see him get the scalp all red when he uses the bottle. There are also marks near the chin and right eye at 8:44 that were then on the “box doll” later. The chin and eye one I found from another comment and their is a lot more in the other comments too. But ya he definitely switched.

Some can't afford that extra $5. I like the color from the boxed dye better tbh.

He said I am the shit but you are my bitch

Box dye? Yeah, never again. NEVER AGAIN.
I bought dark purple
Turned out
Bright
Pink.
I
DESPISE
PINK

I have a hair styling head that looks just like them

Brad Mondo, a professional: "Box dye is so messy and hard to use"
Everyone who's ever had a mental breakdown ever: "Weak"

This shit does not cost 19 bucks because the developer cost extra while the box dye is developed included.

I use box hair color all the time and get complimented all the time.

can you do a video testing various brands of box dyes on wigs and then rank them? bc i’m broke.

They were definitely switched! It was so obvious

Ps. I’m never using box dye again! 🥴💜

I love falling in love with new people on TheXvid cause now I can binge watch all your videos YASSS IM LIVING 😍❤️

After I stopped using box dye and went to a professional I havent turned back lol

Did he really just say " costed "...? Like- the box dye costed $12

you should test splat

You should react to my hair fail I filmed it just for you

We can tell you switched the heads 🙄🙄

Not being rude but was it that hard to admit that the box dye was better and that is why you switched heads

i think box dye is probably harder to fuck up if you're untrained at home than professional dye just bc it comes with the right amount of developer and the volume that they see as most appropriate for most people already there n included and everything? like obviously it's not the same as going to a professional who understands how and why the dye works and can make adjustments and decisions for the individual, but people who might think they know what they're doing well enough to make those adjustments on their own and who aren't hairdressers are way more likely to use, like, 40 volume developer on their already damaged hair or whatever if they're using non-kit hair dye u feel me

OK does he think we're stupid or did he get mixed up because the professional one was so dark and then when they wait I gets lighter and looks like the box dye???????????

Brad : hey beautiful you’re looking stunning
Me sitting on my bed with oil mask in my hair and some brown mask on my face so basically oily hair and shit face : umm thank you ???

Why didn't u try NON-AMONIA box dye? They make it & i use it every month & my hair is so healthy. Hairdressers say it all the time.

Over $300 here in Toronto

Brad my boy, I love you but 5 mid rolls ads is just too much

Can someone please tell me what the difference is between Semi, Demi, and Permanent hair color and when you would use the various kinds?

My mom uses box dye at home and her hair is so soft after her using it. And my mom uses a brush . My mom buys box dye thats good

What hair dye did he use?

wait... the box dye looked more red at the beginning and the professional looked more purple. but at the end... it’s the reverse
now i love brad, but did he accidentally swap the heads, or do i call bs ???

love the hair style. reminds me of styles from bts hehe especially that colour

box dye isnt like....AWFUL awful?? but its not really worth its money when i can just get crazy colour or something for a quid more

Well you should’ve bleached the hair so it would look better ...

I would love to buy pro color. I just don't know where to buy it in Sweden

Am I the only person who doesn’t gather from this the heads were switched? I’m confused how everyone is coming to that conclusion? Box dye will always come up worse

IF YOU REALLY THINK HE DIDNT SWITCH THE HEADS, LOOK AT THE CHIPPING OFF OF THE EYE MAKEUP ON THE HEADS. THE HEAD HE USES THE BOX DYE ON HAS THE SAME CHIPS AS THE “PROFESSIONAL HAIR COLOR” ONE HE SHOWS AT THE END.

First of all there is not even ammonia in the box dye so it can't smell that toxic. It smells kinda like a stronger conditioner. And most important, he switched the dolls.

At about 12 minutes I'm pretty sure he swapped them! Plus there is massive price difference because hair dressers don't just charge is cost. It normally costs way more for it to be done professionally.

Uhm... unpopular opinion: the box dye actually looked way more purple than the professional dye? Sorry, I think you were biased :/ fun idea though might be to have someone else dye the hair and you have to guess which was which.

I really didn’t want to believe that he switched the heads but he did 😕

You should also take into consideration price wise with the pro color that someone who doesn’t have a bowl and brush and gloves and things to apply it would have to get all of those things too verses the cos die which comes with all of your supplies

Thought everyone was just a little stupid thinking you had switched heads. Now that I rewatch parts of the video... the roots kinda gave it away. Unless of course, you switched by accident? Quite easy to mix Tammy and Rebecca up seen as they are pretty much identical. I'm not 100% sure if you actually did switch heads because box dye can be crappy and not come out as 'bright' (when you look at the roots, one of the mannequin's roots are clearly brighter than the others'), although, you seemed to not make a mess of the roots when you were doing the professional dye which makes me revert back to thinking you did switch heads.


Oh and I think that test wasn't quite fair, I'm not sure about the 'professional' hair dye but i know for a fact that the box dye colour is not meant to be put on dark hair because the colour would obviously come out different to what people would expect (you can see 3 different shades on the side of the box showing what it'd come out like on 3 different shades of hair ranging from blonde - brown). People would be expecting it to magically come out nice and bright like shown on the box but the truth is, you would need blonde hair (possibly light brown hair) to have it come out nice and bright... so you would probably need to bleach your hair if your natural colour is dark.

Box dye usually show how will the color look on blonde hair so It's normal that the color didn't mach

This felt quite bias
Dont come for me lmao

Brad mondo I fucking love you

I thought I was the only one that saw the switch until I read the comments

My gf ended up with a 2nd degree chemical burn from this crap and ended up in hospital. Was only a small area but just shouldnt happen. And it definately wasnt an allergic reaction

I’ve used L’Oréal Paris colo rista teal and maroon
And Splat midnight indigo
And they work really well
And smell good and that’s coming from someone who is sensitive to chemical smells

I don’t remember what bleach I used but was a natural brand
That turned my chocolate brown hair to a yellow dirty blonde

I've had my hair professionally dyed like maybe twice... and I've done box dye soooo many times. I've gotten compliments on how it looks constantly.

he literally did not switch them lol
