  • Good alternative to permanent dye.
Color: 4 Dark Brown Size: 5.85 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
The 4 dark brown shade is beautiful and does a great job covering gray hair. I like that the color coats the outside of the hair rather than penetrating the hair shaft, making it a gentler option. The ammonia-free formula is another big plus. It isn’t harsh on my hair and provides effective gray coverage while helping maintain my hair’s overall health. ... show more

  • Pretty impressive for a demi-dye
Color: 4 Dark Brown Size: 5.85 Fl Oz (Pack of 3)
I used to use this product years ago, but then for some reason when I became almost fully grey I decided I needed to start using permanent hair dyes. I regret that decision! There's really not a need for the harsher dyes, especially when you need to re-dye to cover your roots every 4 weeks like I do. I do lose hair when I use this product, but I have not found a single dye (I've tried probably 20 types) that doesn't cause this, I don't know what kind of magic one must possess for this not to happen, but I don't have it. I have been having problems with hot roots the past year or two (where the top 1/2" of my roots turn orange), but did not have that problem with this product. I do always turn a little fan on low and keep it pointed at my scalp while I wait 20 minutes for the color to set, just to be safe! Since hot roots is caused by the heat from your scalp, I figure might as well keep some cool air flowing and so far it's either been luck, or it's helping prevent that. I generally use a 4 (dark brown) hair dye and wasn't sure this demi would be "strong" enough to notice any color difference, but it did make it a half shade darker and also got rid of a little bit of the reddish tone (it's still reddish though, just not quite as much - but it does turn more red as it fades over the course of a month though, FYI). Before and after photo attached. For grey coverage this does a decent job for a demi. I've attached a photo of my scalp where I'm pretty much 100% grey so you can see what it looks like. The greys are blended pretty nicely, but definitely not the exact same shade as the rest of my hair. I really don't think it's noticeable at all that the greys are lighter in person, it's blended well enough to not draw your eye (unless I'm purposefully tugging at it to show my roots like in my photo). Plus my hair actually feels soft and silky after using this product - which is DEFINTELY not the case with 90% of the permanent dyes I've been experimenting with over the years. I do use 2 boxes for my long hair. The conditioner it comes with is really nice, smells great (fresh and not perfume-y at all) and leaves my hair feeling better than it did before dyeing. I'm glad I re-discovered this product and plan to keep using it! Would recommend. ... show more

  • Worthy
Color: 4 Dark Brown Size: 5.85 Fl Oz (Pack of 3)
I was using many different products. Some make my head itchy, some breaks my hair. Finally I found one actually so nice and soft treats my hair like it should be. I live this products.

  • Left with pitch black hair
Color: 4 Dark Brown Size: 5.85 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
The quality of this product is great! It effectively covered my roots and grays and left my hair feeling soft after styling. My only complaint is the extremely dark color deposit. I purchased the dark brown color thinking it would be the most natural looking and ended up with black hair. I suggest going 1-2 shades lighter if looking to achieve a natural dark brown color. ... show more

  • Good semi permanent color
Color: 4 Dark Brown Size: 5.85 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Good way to color your hair with semi permanent color. Been using this for years. I like that when it washes out your grey hair also appears gradually. I have noticed that the color washes out quicker and every time I shower, I do get brown water rinsing out.
