You will have to take my word for it as I have no before photos, but thanks to The Shade Colourist service I am now sporting a beautiful natural looking head of hair. Camilla suggested a duo of Lucca Chocolate Blonde 7.53 and Torino Golden Blonde 8.3 for my dark brown hair. The duo of colours was easy to prepare and apply and the shampoo and conditioner lovely to use. My greys are gone and the three month old bleached out highlights are now blending in with my base colour while still maintaining a lighter tone. Overall I am very happy with the results and would recommend The Shade to any nervous first timers!
