“I had to start using natural hair colour free of chemicals as my scalp became sensitive to conventional hair dyes. I have not had a problem with this product. I would like to see, in the future, maybe dry shampoo, hair mascara to use in between colouring, as I cannot use any of the conventional products.”

“Am absolutely astound at the quality of this product. So easy and enjoyable to use. Wonderful colour that covers greys flawlessly. Thank you so much ❤️”

“Hair colour was so rich and natural looking. Easy to apply at home and loved that you supplied everything. It was a long process to first soften my colour resistant roots. Unfortunately for me it still didn’t colour well and I had patches of grey.”

“Disappointing results from this product, I had to cut a huge matted piece of hair off after colouring. I have never experienced anything like it before after many years of dyeing my hair with store bought boxed kits.”

Hi Elaine, So sorry you weren't happy with your colouring outcome. We have thousands of clients and have never had that feedback before. Not sure that is a colouring issue, and it definitely isn't anything we have heard of before. Please feel free to contact one of our colourists here if you would like some assistance: https://theshade.com.au/colourist/ Best Regards, Camilla The Shade

“Instructions were good but wasn't happy at the coverage of my natural hair even though I left it on for the recommended extra time”

“I love everything, from easy subscription to packaging to the fabulous colours! Great coverage and no overpowering scent. My latest colour is Mahogany Brown, and it is gorgeous!”

“No more scalp irritation! Been using The Shade for a year now and definitely no turning back. I do my re growths every 4-5 weeks to cover my grey hair. Managing subscription is easy. Happy customer here!”

“I was sceptical initially. I figured it was just another boxed dye but for $10 and a free kit of cape, mixing bowl, clips and a brush I thought why not. Well, I was wrong. Every time I have dyed from a box at home the blonde has a distinct orange undertone which I hate and my hair feels damaged. With The Shade, the colour was exactly as described, my hair felt and still feels healthy and even at full price, its cheaper than some of the box dyes I have used. I definitely reccommend using this product. Definitely worth at least trying the trial pack.”

“The colour is really nice. Unfortunately, the advertising says "phthalate free" but since every sachet contains parfum (fragrance), it is not phthalate free.”

Helpful Report

“Absolutely loved this hair dye! So easy and simple to use, no smell! Loved the barrier oil and wipe for any stains. I didn't think there would be enough shampoo and conditioner for my hair but it froths up and I had plenty!!! Definitely buying again.”

“I really like The Shade. The colour is rich and solid, and the shade is wonderful. I use Verona, it is soft but dark enough to match my natural colour and it’s great for covering greys.”

“The best thing I have bought this year - I love that colour and the condition my hair now has - the colour just pops next to what was a dull brown - done by a hairdresser that cost$$$$$ , can’t wait to continue getting my order 👩🏻‍🦰”

“Excellent product. I have been using this all year and found it to be more gentle and a lot longer lasting than other home kits, even most salon colours too. Dont think Ill pay a hairdresser to color my hair again. Easy service and good reminder to freshen up. Love that its so easy to swap colours or change shipment dates.”
