“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”

“The ease of using The Shade is phenomenal and the service is outstanding. The color itself didn't turn out as expected but I chose the wrong color but I like it anyway”

Helpful Report

“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.”

“A very easy to use kit. Perfect results every time. And what is even better, that one can go up or down the tone to slightly alter the shade as required.”

“Only one colour done so far but I absolutely love it, no harsh chemical smells or feel to my scalp, and the colour is beautiful. Highly recommend, I used Beige Blonde.”

Helpful Report

“I decided to try your product as my wife has used it for sometime and she is very happy with it. I wanted to reduce my grey without it looking obvious. I have used other products for years but had scalp irritation recently due to the chemicals in the product. Plus it was not covering my greys near the roots. I emailed one of your advisors who was extremely helpful in assisting me find just the look I wanted. I am very very happy with the shade and colour and no one has said I’ve had my hair coloured, which is just what I wanted. I also love the fact that I am not using harmful chemicals on my hair anymore. My hair feels softer and looks more natural. Thank you so much.”

“Lov the colour covers grays well ….. even my hairdresser loves the colour”

Helpful Report

“I was super nervous initially, but the colour consultants were fantastic and gave me so much advice and help! I eventually went with a Duo of Bellara Dark Ash Blonde and Montecristo Light Ash Brown. I found that it didn't totally cover some of my really fine grey hairs, but that could also have been my application method, so I'll make sure to apply more dye to those trouble spots next time. Overall, I'm happy with the colour and it has saved me SO MUCH money at the salon.”

“Amazing company, when I had a glitch and accidentally ordered the tsubaki oil the support team refunded me straight away. After the company accidentally sent it to me I offered to send it back but they told me to keep it because it was there mistake. Such rare fantastic customer service! Shout out to the amazing Maria and Craig! I also loved the products super easy to use and I love the effect on my hair, it’s not drying at all!”
