Absolutely love it but if there was more colour options to choose from it would be better I was wanting a deep red colour but wasn't able to find it

Used this product once so far. Love how soft my hair feels and coverage of my greys is great. Instructions are clear and easy to follow. I will definitely be using the monthly service. Makes life easier.

The shade is easy to use and comes as a complete set. I did find the colour a little darker than expected, that said, I am still very happy with it. Be sure to rinse thoroughly, as I did have a little residue on my pillow for a few days after - this washed out though. The best thing of all, it has left my hair a lot softer than before and has saved me over $150 going to the hairdressers.

The colour is nice but I think next time I will go Medium Ash blonde instead of Dark Ash blonde, but overall it is a nice product to use

I was impressed with the quality of the colouring components themselves and the accompanying mixing kit and brush. End result was definitely a more consistent colour than box sets purchased in store.

Very impressed with the product quality, supply timeliness and ease of purchase. The colour I picked did produce a bit of a darker shade than expected, however the outcome was still lovely.

Conveniently delivered to my door making refreshing my colour easy. Saving both time and money if I was going to a salon. There's no way I look 50.

I am still very happy with the color, however, lately, my hair in the back is very dry and frizzy. Any idea how to fix this?

Love their products, their customer service i could easily put on hold for a bit or change my colour selection, totally recommended.

I love The Shade; it's easy to use and my hair looks and feels great! I only wish I could bulk buy, which would reduce the environmental footprint by having less single-use packaging and less shipping.

Hi Phannee, We're very glad to hear that you are happy with your colour, but sorry that your hair is feeling a bit dry. We recommend Tsubaki oil (100% pure Camellia Japonica oil) for dry hair. It suits all hair types and is brilliant for restoring strength, moisture, softness and shine to hair. It is a lightweight pure oil, which is easily absorbed by the hair and skin, and it is full of beneficial components such as oleic acid, proteins and glycerides. It is a deeply nourishing nutrient-rich oil that is free from fragrances, colourants, silicone and mineral oil. It is very helpful for dry hair (and it's my all-time favourite hair oil!).

I love this product for my hair and face. It’s going to replace my Le Mer cream.

I am very happy with how my hair colour turned out. Looks great and covered my greys and old colour perfectly. I was a bit disappointed that I sent a question in to the colourists and never got a reply, but I went ahead with colouring anyway and was happy with the result. Also, because I have very short hair, and because I read on The Shade's blog about using half a tube of colour and half a sachet of developer to cover greys, I did consider doing that but decided against it because I hadn't used the product before. When I squeezed out the colour, it was all pearlescent white except for the last two CM which were brown so now I'm not sure if it's actually advisable to use half a tube of colour, and half a sachet of developer, or if that would affect the result
