Pro Pleasant smell
Rather than the chemical-y scent most dyes give off, Punky Color smells strongly of grape.

Punky Colours comes in a wide range of colours (currently 20 to choose from). There are plenty of shades of reds, blues, greens and purples with a few other options.

Cons
Con Quite messy
The dye bleeds a fair bit, sometimes staining towels even multiple showers after the dye.
Con Comes in non traditional colors
There are no natural shades available except for black.
Con Difficult to find outside of Europe
It's difficult to find the product in Canada and the US. Websites that will ship it outside of Europe (like Amazon) usually put quite a markup on the price.

The wash time can vary between very few, to quite a lot before the colour disappears (many users say it disappears quite quickly).
Con Shampoo and Conditioner do not perform
Their shampoo range makes no difference to colour staying time.
