Colour a bit darker than I expected (compared to the colour-equivalent of my previous Olia shade). Good quality, minimal stinging. Excellent grey coverage.

This product is the best ever. I have been going to hairdressers all my life and I am nearly 60 but last year I thought this is the last time you will ruin my hair and after investigating found this product. No one can believe I do it myself and looks amazing. I use the Mahoney brown all over then every month just the brown No 5 for the regrowth I am saving a fortune and my hair looks amazing so no more hairdresser for me 😊😊😊

Very helpful tools kit for coloring hair

The Shade is a great service! I really like the equipment that can be reused each time, reducing waste, and the fact that I don’t have to absorb so many chemicals to cover my greys. I find the coverage and staying power of The Shade colours excellent. I’ve also managed to transition to lighter and darker shades without a weird “two tone” look. Recommend!

I just wanted to email with feedback regarding my hair colour. I received it so quickly and couldn’t wait to try it out. Firstly, the smell was great - not at all ‘chemically’ like a lot of colours. Secondly, using the developer before putting the actual colour in definitely helped with my greys. Thirdly, it was so easy to put in my hair - I was thinking it would be a long and tedious process and it was far from it! Lastly, the colour is AMAZING! Absolutely love, love, love, LOVE it! I also love that I don’t have to think about it now and in 5 weeks it’ll just arrive in my letterbox - how amazingly easy!

I am very pleased to do this review! I developed an irritation on my scalp for dyeing my grey hair for many years and I struggled to find hair colour that won’t irritate my scalp. This is a total game changer for me because not only my scalp is not irritated anymore I can now also not wash my hair longer! And how easy to change your subscription, very user friendly! One of the many happy customers here!

Fast delivery. Product easy to use. Very little drip. Fantastic results. Very rich colour with excellent grey coverage - better than the chemically laced stuff. I'm going to be a regular now. I used the brown-black colour with great results. Highly recommend. Best hair colouring product I've ever used.

Thanks so much Marcia, thrilled that you got a good result with The Shade x
This product is amazing, it's just like a salon colour for a fraction of the price. The process of choosing a colour is very easy & my chosen colour was perfect. Unlike chemist colours, my hair felt so soft afterwards & smelt great too!

I have now enjoyed The Shade home colouring product four times and can say it is beautiful! I love the broad selection of colours (I have found the one I love for now!), love that it colours, and keeps coloured, my scattered greys, and that the subscription rolls over. My scalp also doesn’t sting anymore when the dye is applied, which of course I always found very irritating and worrying with my old hair dyes. This brand is a winner and I highly recommend it!

Thanks for your kind words Elisa, so glad you like it! The Shade team
Unfortunately I have very sensitive skin and was highly allergic to this product. I forgot to cancel the subscription and now have an extra one I can't use.

Thanks so much Gina, so happy you like The Shade! The Shade team
Hi i recently tried your hair colour. I'm not satisfied with the colour did not think it would be THAT red. My roots and ends seem straw like in texture. I'm sorry but I think I will cancel my next order. Thanks. I have added a before and after photo for your perusal. Regards.

I hope this helps! Regards, The Shade team
Loved the results, my hair is healthier with shine and a nice even colour. Easy instructions and the whole process was easier than box colours. The colour didn’t leak when my hair was wet over the coming days (something I’ve experienced with red hair constantly). So very impressed!! Only downside was the brush handle snapped the first time I used it.

Thanks for your photo and kind words Carly. Thrilled that you are happy with the result. Your hair looks great! Sorry about the brush; I'll put another one in the mail for you. The Shade team
This is the best! The trial kit is very professional. It has everything you need. The colour box is amazing. Barrier cream to stop colour from getting on your skin. Awesome colour. And the most amazing shampoo and conditioner. My hair was in quite bad shape from being blonde and this colour has brought my hair back to silky. I love the smell too. Like a high end salon. I felt totally pampered even though I did it myself. Cannot recommend enough! I've had so many positive comments on my hair colour today.
