“Great value and good quality colour. Just what is needed for ‘fresh roots’ in these crazy times. Thanks. Will continue to subscribe to your wonderful service. 😊”

“Very happy with the results after using this product. I waited about a week before I posted a review to asses whether or not the dye would fade, but so far so good! I love the colour, and it was delivered on time. I will definitely be using this product again, and avoiding expensive salon visits!”

“Seriously, the BEST hair dye I’ve EVER purchased in my life !!!! My hair is baby soft, smells like springtime flowers and looks shiny and incredible. I LOVE the shade so much I’ve already told my mum, sister and friends to drop what they are doing and buy the shade it’s changed the way l look at hair dye and for someone with extremely fine hair that is falling out I was really worried about using hair dye but WOW I’ll never use any other hair dye ever again .... THANK YOU so much for making such an amazing product !!!”

“Great product and easy to use.”

“Nice and easy to apply. Love the colour, feel like my hair is not as dry as with other products”

Helpful Report

“Great product, non drip, no mess and I found that it rinsed out so much easier than my regular at home colour brand. The colour blended really well. In the past Ive had over processed areas particularly along my part. Not this time. My hair has never felt so good and the shine is amazing. Im looking forward to trying a few other shades. I used Verona.”

“I love the colour it's perfect, my skin is super sensitive and it didn't burn at all. The smell was pleasant, not at overpowering. I will be using this product from now on.”

Helpful Report

“I was very happy with the equipment and instructions supplied. The colour is very natural and the conditioner really gave my hair an improved soft texture.”

Helpful Report

“Obsessed! My hair was yellow, uneven and damaged. A free colour consult with The Shade recommended me the perfect colour. Couldn't be happier.”

Helpful Report

“The Shade product came package really nicely with clear information. As promised no horrible smell and plenty of product to cover a full head of shoulder length hair, also good grey coverage. Would recommend and use again.”

“Vibrant colour. Easy to apply. Love the professional tools. Looking forward to saving money, by not going to hairdresser so much.”

Helpful Report

“First time colouring my own hair. Was a bit awkward doing myself as had to manoeuvre back blindly. Hair was very knotted after shampoo and I would suggest 2 sachets for longer hair. Conditioner was ample. Colour gave me 100% grey coverage and colour looked very natural. I received many complements. Did I mention 100% grey coverage. So so happy!!”

Helpful Report

“Unfortunately the colour chosen for me is very orange, and looks odd. Shame as the colour went on well and unlike other colourants I did not itch to pieces.”

Helpful Report

“Easy to apply. No stinging. Happy with shade but will need to do the developer for stubborn greys first.”

Helpful Report

“The survey suggested "Chocolate Blonde" would be the colour for me but, unfortunately my greys turned a reddish colour. I used the extra developer beforehand, as suggested because my hair can be quite resistant to colour. The idea is good but not for me, sorry. Too fiddly to apply the colour (I had to get my husband to help with the back).”

Helpful Report

“The color I picked was really nice and my hair felt not damaged. It worked out really well. It was amazing value for money, and I much better than other brands.”

Helpful Report

“Found product pretty good. Was a but awkward doing it urself but im sure it gets easier. Think i did an good job. Love the cool tone took most of the red out of my hair. Done before an after photo”
