“Colour was beautiful, I don’t like that you have to apply to dry hair I don’t feel like it distributes as well on dry hair but overall the colour was really nice and lasted! No irritation or itch or bad smell was very easy to use x”

“Love this product, does what it advertises and some. I get lots of compliments. I've been letting everyone I come in contact with who asks about my hair know who THE SHADE is, alot of people haven't heard of your company yet in New Zealand.”

“I’ve been using The Shade for a couple of years now. I love the chemical free products that promote hair health. Its great using the 27 Vol with my colour for a little extra coverage with stubborn greys. Being able to manage subscriptions and colour choices are helpful. The team are supportive and informative with advice on achieving your best results at home xox”

“Not the colour that I thought it would be it turned red instead of the brown I wanted but still like the quality of it”

Helpful Report

“The product arrived quickly and ordering was fairly straightforward. This was the first time I had dyed my hair and although I went through the consultation process the end colour was not any lighter than what I originally had (although was intended to be two shades lighter) but has a strange slightly yellow tinge.”

“Awesome products, same colour every time. I can always trust I’ll get a good even colour.”

“Trust the advice of the colourist. I have been a long user of commercial professional dyes, so my challenge was remove the brassy warmth and gold tones out of my hair without having to go to a salon for advice. The advice on the 6.1 and 7.1 duo was spot on. Worked a treat to cover my white white roots and am super happy with my shade.”

“I had one of the best colours so far on the first week of colouring. However, on the second week my hair was back to how it was- grays were back and hair was super dry although I followed the colourist's advice and all. If you tell me where I got it wrong, I am willing to give it another go because I like the natural ingredients used. Thank you!”

“Would highly recommend shade colours amazing, on my 3 week and has not faded like colours I have used in the passed.”

“I really LOVE The Shade! I had grown out my hair to my natural colour (see first pic) and worn it proudly for over 5 years. But I really wanted a change. With the help and advice of Camilla, Colourist at The Shade, I choose the colour duo - Napoli 7 Dark Blonde and San Remo 8.13 Light Ash Golden Blonde. I only used the #20 developer and it worked a treat. The process was really easy but, best of all, I just love the result (see second pic). The colour combination works really well with my curly hair and it has a multi-dimensional finish - not flat. My hair feels lovely afterward, too. Thank you so much.”

“It is my first time using the 27 volume developer for grey root coverage and it was not great. Not sure why...”

Hi Deborah, I'm sorry you didn't get the grey coverage you were looking for. Please don't hesitate to contact one of our colourists here who can assist you with this: https://theshade.com.au/colourist/ I hope this helps!

“Used shade Ash Brown. Usually go for light ash brown but fancied a darker shade. Really nice finish. No warm tones either. Easy to use. Been using for a few years now. Glad to have found the shade. Saves so much $$$ and love all the colour choices :)”

“So much better than chemist bought colours that I was struggling with.”

Helpful Report

“I’ve used the Shade once and have just received my second order. I love this product. My hair is shiny, it’s the perfect colour for me and the application was so easy. The Shade has thought of everything in their kit to make it an easy application and the colour itself is so gentle on my skin and scalp. I love how my colour is lasting longer than the supermarket brands too. So thrilled I found this product! Will be recommending.”

“I purchased the shade colour light beige. It had no nasty smells, it covered evenly and lifted my roots without having to use bleach. My hair has less damage. Colour has lasted and is natural looking ✨️ very happy with my purchase will be purchasing again 🫶🏼”

“Followed the instructions, watched the videos and read all the reviews with hope that at home hair colouring was now more achievable than ever. Ended in tears, regret and disappointment. My own fault for ever thinking I could do what a trained hairdresser can do. Waste of money and time and sanity! Ended up with bright orange and yellow hair, now my beautiful blonde locks are brunette after an emergency and embarrassing trip to a hairdresser to fix. Never again. Just go to the hairdresser.”

Helpful Report

“I ended up getting a toner that was a little darker than my usual to help with a root smudge. Ive had countless compliments and it looks super natural with my underlying highlights peeping through for dimension.”
