“I absolutely love the results :) my hair feels so soft and silky afterwards and the colour is a beautiful natural brown. The kit gives you so many tools to use for future dying and the quality of everything was great. I have very long hair so there was more than enough product to colour everything. In these lockdown times, it was great to have everything delivered to my door in an all-in-one easy kit. I’m thinking I may never need to go to a salon for colouring anymore haha. Thank you The Shade xoxo”

“I absolutly love this product. I have saved so much money as I only get a straight out colour. my hubby applies it for good bonding time and I feel it lasts longer than when I use to go to the hairdresser. I highly recommend!!!”

“The colour I got was more of a copper/red brown colour! But I love it! Usely I’m very hesitant with home hair dyes, but this one covered my regrowth so so well! Made my hair look so much healthier, thicker and longer! I think next I will try a mix colour! But overall work a treat!”

“I love the shade and have used it consistently for a number of years now. The colour is always great and the condition of my hair is not compromised. I love the little extras you get in the kit, especially the conditioner and the remover wipe.”

“Very impressed! I was wary of ordering due to bad experiences with box dye. But I was so surprised in the results! Now I have the colour I’ve never been able to get from local hairdressers - and at a fraction of the cost! Added bonus is I don’t waste half my weekend stuck in a hairdressers chair once a month.”

“Smells amazing, looks amazing, easy to use... Love it...I've gone from dark brown to lightest Ash blonde 😁.”

Helpful Report

“I was apprehensive about dying my hair at home for the first time in years but I’m on maternity leave and can’t get to a salon at the moment. I’m so impressed with the results! It was very easy to apply and I didn’t make a huge mess of my bathroom. The colour is so good and still so shiny a couple of weeks later. I’ve received a lot of compliments on my “unique” colour and people have assumed that this cost me a couple of hundred dollars at a salon.”

Helpful Report

“I have coloured my hair with The Shade for several years. I started using it because regular hair colours were irritating/burning my scalp. The Shade colours have never caused scalp issues, in fact they are soothing to my scalp. I regularly get compliments about my hair colour and to my surprise, people often think that my colour is natural (it is in fact mousy brown with a heavy sprinkling of grey!) To cap it off, my hair is in a healthier condition since I’ve started using The Shade.”

“Fantastic product, super easy and great colour matches”

“I’m extremely happy with the results, I had brassy foils, $400 and 5 hours at a hairdressers is no longer an option for me. I contacted a hair consultant from the shade they gave me a suggestion that resulted in a beautiful ash blonde. Also using the repair mask and blonde mask my hair hasn’t been this soft or shiny in many years. I’m very impressed. I highly recommend the shade!”

“Great product!! Smells amazing!! Just like a salon product 🥰”

“I have been using shade for over 6 months now. My skin is sensitive and does not agree to heavy chemical products. Shade is very mild on my scalp and does not cause the burning and discomfort caused by chemically heavy products. Would highly recommend it to users who prefer good results without the discomfort of burning.”

“The shade has given me back my confidence with my hair as in colour and health I love The Shade☀️”

Helpful Report

“I love the shine and depth of colour my hair has after using The Shade hair colour products. I used to get an itchy scalp every time my hair was coloured, not anymore. As a mature lady and I was finding it harder to get complete grey coverage and at the same time have a natural look. I’m so happy with the results of the shades I’m using now. I love 4.1 Dark Ash Brown then alternate with a 4.3 or 4.43 for golden tones. Definitely no fade colours. I love the hair care products as well. I have stocked up on the beautiful shampoo and conditioners, my favourite is the Volume range and Repair Mask. Please do your hair a favour and try out The Shade products. The pictures I have attached are 2 weeks after a colour.”
