I haven't used this yet, I dye my hair blue/black every month or so with a permanent dye. I decided to get a tub of this semi-permanent dye to touch up my roots every now and again so that I don't have to dye my whole hair as often.
I know that some of the other comments say that this has a green or blue undertone but I am fine with that because when I have tried other black dyes they seem to have a red undertone when I am in daylight which I don't like so this will probably be perfect for me.

Not what it says.
The brand got the name of this all wrong. Ebony suggests it’s black but it’s got blue, green, and purple undertones depending on what hair you’re dying it on. Not a solid black but if you’re not wanting black then it’s great. Just think it’s extremely misleading

Not what I expected
I got this after a friend of mine raved about how amazing it was. And at first I loved it, but after only 2 washes my hair was a navy blue/ greeny colour and looked awful, I had to go out and buy a different product to get black.

Good but has undertones
Good but has some purple undertones and is hard to stick. It’s good for shadow roots ect but not a full head unless you top up often

Brilliant top very flattering and comfortable excellent value i ordered several items all fit very well super fast delivery thank you
Like no other retailer, and thus precious in this crazy world
I love Kate's Clothing, which managed to provide a wonderfully modern and alternative shop while also giving good old fashioned customer service. Kate is always very quick to respond personally to enquiries, and her returns support is second to none on the odd occasion when I do have to create a return. This is personalised support, not an unhelpful response from some AI bot. So refreshing in this depersonalised world. Shop, enjoy, and tell your friends!
The website was easy to navigate & the prices quite competitive. Checkout was simple & quick. The item arrived in a few days, safely packed & undamaged, exactly as described.
Lovely cat candlestick. Just as described & perfect for Halloween. It will look 'wicked' sitting on my window sill with a candle, & also makes a nice ornament. The detail is very good & it's heavy enough to be stable with a candle in. I'm very happy with my purchase
I'm giving the full five stars for the customer service teams help not the leggings! Customer service gave advice on how to sort parcel app labels that refused to work (didn't work due to good old 'Global Service Management Software Outage across Royal Mail & many other companies that day!) and managed to get it over to me so stony postie counter service didn't run screaming to the hills again or utter 'computer says No!'.
Leggings looked great off and on model but I was very disappointed with the sizing - I swear it is for a 12 year old kid! I am approximately 4ft 10ins and in leggings I usually go for a size S/small/10 but saw the customer advice to size up so I went up to a Size L which is 12 in Punk Rave. Normally all trousers or leggings have to be rolled up or tucked up or into boots but these fitted legs but only as far as low part of my butt at the back and only as far as my old C-section scar at the front! Nobody wants me parading my Bridget Jones specials in public 🫣, they were really weird and sadly unwearable so I had to return them 😿
