Just threw out $40 worth of salon hair color

I bought this brand new line of color from a distributor at a show in Chicago last month, thought it would be amazing. Mixed up a full bowl for a client and it turned this weird muddy green within 10 minutes. Had to wash it all out and start over with my regular stuff, wasted the whole tube. Anyone else get burned by a new color line that looked promising but totally flopped?

Doesn't that always happen with the flashy new products though? Feels like half the time the hype comes from a good marketing team, not a good formula.

Honestly, you nailed it with "half the time the hype comes from a good marketing team." That's gotta be way more than half, honestly. Most of these brands just throw money at influencers and a slick website and call it a day.
