“Package arrived quickly and was grateful for the packaging that was as sustainable as possible. Usually I use the at home foam dyes but this paint on dye really was easy. I focused on the roots and then slathered it all together for the mids-ends. It actually smelt nice and I wasn't inhaling chemicals as I did it. Next - the shampoo and conditioner! Unexpectedly great - my hair has never smelt so good for so long after washing. Usually with at home dyes my hair feels kinda yuck for a week or so after, like it's got an extra layer on top, but after using The Shade my hair felt natural, smooth and soft. Finally, I was happy with the colour - just a nice all over brown that wasn't stark. No complaints! I will be continuing with subscription but probably won't need all over colour. Would be great if you could do a half pack for root touch ups. Thanks!”

“Nice colour but left my hair pretty rough. Also the smell of the conditioner was a bit overwhelming.”

“This left my hair so smooth and I have the most craziest curly hair. I would totally recommend this to anyone and I look forward to the subscription.”

“I love that I don’t have to go shopping to spontaneously dye my hair. The dye arrives whenever I want and I’ve just bought the shampoo and conditioner also because they make my hair lovely and not so frizzy!”

“I was slightly dubious, but desperate during lockdown in Victoria. So I tried The Shade. Choosing the colour was easy, although I did have a rough idea from my hairdresser what I was looking for. And the application is easy and it looks great. Even my hairdresser couldn’t believe I did it myself. If you just need roots covered or an all over colour, this product is amazing. I love it and always keep a spare for emergencies now. And have cut my colouring costs significantly. Bonus.”

“This Company has been great, everything that say is true. Its the first time that i can colour with no excessive itching to the scalp and i didn’t have to rely on anti histamines. The colour is style shiny and strong. Im very happy with the results.”

“I love this, always even and easy to apply with the tools. Makes my hair look lie I've just been to the salon!”

“I love this product I have been using it for about 2 years. The regrowth is so subtle compared to shop brands. My hair is healthy and in good condition. What I love the most is when you wash out the dye after application the water is not thoroughly concentrated with colour and the colour doesn't wash out week after week . Love also that isnt full of nasties.”

“Perfect solution! I am not one to spend hours at the Salon or for that matter spend an exhorbitant amount of money. So The Shade is my perfect solution and surprisingly easy to find out what shade suits. I have received many many compliments since commencing over a year ago. My shade is Palermo- Copper Golden Blonde.”
