“I tried The Shade on the recommendation of a friend. It was easy to submit my query and photo and I received my colour consultation in no time. Communication regarding the delivery of my order was excellent and I received it promptly (given current postal delays). I was SO impressed with the product. It was so easy to use and I was beyond delighted with the result. The colour looks great and my hair feels amazing. I'm so pleased that I won't be going back to salon colouring in a hurry, even though we're now out of lockdown.”

“This product is of the Highest quality the colour, the developer, the shampoo, and conditioner. The result I have achieved at home is the best I have ever had and better than the salon. The product is so easy to use. The colour selection is amazing backed up by excellent customer support who answered every question and offered excellent advice. I have been using it for over 2yrs and the colour I have is closest to my natural colour. It makes me feel like me again.”

Hi Inga, So sorry it took so long to receive your order. The delay to your order, and other customers' orders have been quite ridiculous, even considering the COVID situation. I really hope delivery times will return to normal. The Shade team

“Great product, great service and really feel happy with the colouring system. The shampoo and conditioner are brilliant!”

“Am very pleased with great result of Torino Golden Blonde, as I had a dark blonde/auburn colour. Wanted a sunnier shade for our coming warmer weather. The colourist helped me with best way to use this lighter shade - It's fabulous. Also a much gentler dye than the supermarket one I used to use. Thank you Shade.”

“I don't usually colour my own hair but, when lockdown forces your hand, I wouldn't use any other product than The Shade. Everything about it leads to a positive experience. From the easy to use website, excellent customer service, flexibility in delivery schedules that never ties you down and, most importantly, to the amazing product. The website assists tremendously to colour choice and you have the option to chat with a colour consultant if you wish. The product application instructions are well explained. There are no nasty chemical smells that you get with other brands and there are small sachets of a product that helps prevent any colour remaining on your skin. The shampoo and conditioner are fabulous and I have purchased full sized bottles of each of these to use regularly.”

“Having never done my hair at home before and having read such good things about The Shade, I decided to take the plunge. Honestly, it has been the best thing I have done for my hair! Not only can I do it at home and save hours in the salon, the price is incredible! Great value, great product & easy to do. Brilliant customer service too! I spoke to one of the hair stylist first to ensure I got the right colour, her advice was perfect! The colour was awesome and exactly what I wanted. Love The Shade and have already recommended to several of my friends. Thank you!”
