“I bought the blonde wash and the light ash brown. Blonde wash is amazing! Only lightener I’ve ever used that didn’t turn my hair some shade of orange. I left 2 days before dying with the ash as recommended. Usually this means 2 days of hiding my obvious bleach fail from the public but my hair was just blonde! Now the light ash brown - FINALLY! I have found the colour I have been searching for for yeaarrrssssss!! Honestly so impressed and will definitely be using from now on.”

“Really not bad at all.”

“The colour was not as described, a lot darker then it was meant to be and the colour doesn't bind to the hair well at all,”

Hi Lucy, Sorry you didn't get the result you were looking for. A darker hair result is not uncommon, which is addressed in this blog: https://theshade.com.au/colouring/my-colour-result-is-darker-than-i-expected-why/ The colour not binding to the hair is usually a result of hair porosity. Please see the following blog article: https://theshade.com.au/blogs/how-hair-porosity-affects-hair-colour/ Our colourist are available 7 days a week for personalised advice. They can be contact here: https://theshade.com.au/colourist/ I hope this helps! The Shade team

“I have just tried my first colour from you. Where do I start. The trial goodies was amazing it feels like good quality and made clean up so easy breezy. I loved that it came with a barrier oil. The shampoo and conditioner was amazing and also I loved how there was a little bit of shampoo and a lot of conditioner. I always have too much shampoo and not enough conditioner the ratios were perfect thankyou. It was so easy to follow the steps as well as some great pointers online I hardly noticed any smell. My hair didn't feel damaged and I lost 90% less hair than with any other dyes I have used. The online colourist consultant was amazing help and it's great to have someone there that you can ask how different colours or whatever your question maybe. I honestly was hesitant as any other remotely natural dyes I have used in the past haven't held up. I was planning on stopping the subscription but nope I have choosen my next colour and excited to see how that goes 😊. Palmero colour light copper blonde.”

“The colour match was perfect. Loved the shampoo and conditioner provided too. Would be great if you could buy these separately. Some of my greys did not colour but will leave it on longer next time.”

“I am an ex hairdresser and had iso regrowth and old foiled hair. My base is a dirty blonde around 8 level. I am so impressed with the colour I chose 7.53. Covered brilliantly over my blonde and roots ( few cheeky greys in there). Colour is even throughout. Am looking forward to see how the colour fades.”
