This product is fantastic, I have been using it since Covid lockdown. I love the fact it is excellent coverage, leaves my hair super shiny and conditioned without the nasty chemicals in .I also have to give customer service 10 out of10 !

I like using The Shade products at home to minimise cost and decide at the last moment to colour hair, without the hassle of getting a hairdresser appointment. I feel more able to keep on top of hair looking good, when I am in control. Furthermore, avoid problems with hairdresser not listening to what you want. I was worried about continual permanent dye going through my entire lengths, also a different colour every time because they just mix it up randomly and don't keep a record. I felt like the hairdressers didn't really care as long as you walk out today looking good. The other thing is I was looking for natural products and concerned about what nasties are being absorbed into the body.

Love my product and love that it's always ready for me to use each month. So convenient.

Very good, easy to use, quick delivery. The colour wasn't exactly what I was looking for but it was good anyway, my hairs shiny and feels healthy still

I purchased this product as they don't contain a lot of the chemicals that other brands do. Made in Italy (sounds nice!) and the range of colours is great. I love that I can customise my colour. Having the colourist on hand to answer questions is so reassuring and handy. I love that I can alter my order at any time! There's nothing to not love about The Shade! My hair feels beautiful after I'm done and lasts for weeks! Thanks for making home colouring so easy!!!!

I was surprised with the results. The product had a pleasant scent and you can tell it is far gentler than any other colorants I have tried, even in comparison to the ones from the salon. Easy to use as all you need is included in the colouring kit. The shampoo and conditioner were devine so gentle and smells great. So happy I gave this a try. Will definitely be switching to this now than going back to expensive salons.

Love, love, love! Beautiful colours and my hair feels very healthy even after doing my own foils.

Due to inflation, colouring my hair has had to go. I found The Shade by accident and I have to say I'm SO impressed! Fast shipping, option to include extra for long, thick hair for a great price (which was enough to cover my thick hair that falls halfway down my back) and a great colour result. I will be setting up a subscription!

Great colour match and fantastic service

I was very impressed with the colour result I had with The Shade colour. I was able to get rid of stubborn greys around my hairline and roots and achieved an even overall colour down to my lengths. I am so happy I have already re-purchased more for my next root touch up. The customer service was prompt, knowledgeable and professional. So glad I chose The Shade for my first time coloring ny own hair.

I got sucked in by all the Facebook ads and I’m so glad I did. My hair looks better now then what it did after I left the salon spending hundreds! I consulted with the colourist (Camilla) first to help me make a decision on what colour might be the most appropriate for what I was after, and after sending them a picture of my hair in natural light, the colour they suggested (Napoli - dark blonde) was spot on! I paid the extra to get extra colour and developer because I have long thick hair (mid way down my back), and I still had plenty left over at the end. My hair felt so soft after putting in the colour - a contrast to my prior experiences at the hair salon! The colour is easy to apply (I watched the “how to” video) and is very affordable. I will certainly be continuing my monthly colouring through the membership.

Love it! so easy to use, I used 6.1 and the colour turned out great. I have long hair but it is quite thin and the amount of toner that I received for long hair is actually enough for two applications, So I'm thrilled!

I Love using The Shade Hair Colour. No more burning sensation when applying hair dye from chemically based hair dyes. The colour is rich (I use Mahogany) and looks so lush, At 60 I get so many looks from men and women when I'm out and about and the sun lights up my colour. As an older woman it supports me to feel attractive, as at my age we can be seen as a bit invisible to society.

Really happy with trying my first kit. My hair went from 3 different shades of brown (after attempting to fix a grown out balayage!) and an inch of gray to this beautiful ash brown. Super happy with the consistency of the resulting colour - the “Find my perfect shade” tool helped me find exactly what I was after.

The advice from the colourist Camilla made me comfortable in mixing colours and the whole process. I have had compliments on the colour and that it is better than previous (done in salon). With work, study and children PLUS the rising costs of living this is the perfect solution to maintain my hair at home. It’s been 2 weeks since I coloured and my hair is soft and in great condition.

I love the colour mix the shade sent me. Blended in naturally and covered greys. No harsh smell, natural, easy to use as well. Clear instructions and minimal packaging. Definitely my go to hair colouring method going forward.

The shade was great at every step. The consultation was comprehensive, the product was good quality and plenty of it. The application is easy use to apply and I was more than happy with the result. I applied a semi-permanent on my roots and then a toner all over and the colour came out perfect.
