I was very happy with the grey hair coverage and the color of the 2N. I prefer dark, dark brown, and that is what this gave me. My natural color is dark brown and, of course, stupid grey at the roots especially at the temples and at my stupid cowlick in front.
For people with medium or shorter hair, you can get two uses out of this!!!
They should let consumer know it doesn’t come with an applicator. There is a separate set to buy with a brush and mixing bowl that can be re-used over and over. I improvised this time, but I’m buying the mixing set for future use.
I will continue to buy this excellent Vegan product.

Omg yas yas yas gurl. This has the best shine I’ve ever experienced in hair coloring. Holy pigment! Gorgeous!!! I have no idea what the bad reviews are about “it damaged my hair” or ” I had an allergic reaction”. One you probably had severe damage due to bleaching and over processing your hair a million times. Two the allergic reaction comes with not following the instructions and doing a strand test.
This tops all the box colors I’ve used and was totally worth the time writing a review. Stop buying loreal and especially dont buy Garnier because its complete junk.
You’re welcome.

Okay, so trying to shift over to more natural products to avoid toxins in my system. I know with hair dye it is pretty impossible to get all natural so I searched for the best options. After reading a ton of reviews I chose herbatint. First, when you apply it the smell is great, you don’t feel like you’re intentionally inhaling cancer chemicals to look good. Secondly, it lasts. I found I am just now having to go for round 2 since my purchase, it has been a month and I have greys. This is typical for me with regular dyes so I felt it gave the same coverage and time. Lastly, the only thing to consider is application. You should probably buy the little dish and brush if you are going to use this brand. For basic greys there is 2 applications per box and I have nothing to apply the second round. That is definitely not a big deal considering I love the product overall and love the natural ingredients.

I purchased the light mahogany chestnut color. I started out with my natural uncolored chocolate brown hair. I wanted to cover a few greys and make it a dark mahogany color. I’m vegan and I tend to gravitate towards more natural products so I decided to purchase this product since it’s cruelty free and vegan unlike most hair dyes. The application was pretty easy like other box dyes. I noticed it was very mild in smell. It came with two products you mix together 1:1 and then a hair conditioner and gloves. I used some lotion on my forehead and ears and back of my neck to prevent it from staining my skin. I ended up using about half of each bottle for my shoulder length hair. I like that you can save the other half and use again which is not possible with most hair dyes as they have to be discarded once opened. I applied it and put on a shower cap and waited the 40 mins. After the time was up I rinsed it out and applied the conditioner. I found the conditioner to be very thin and there’s not a lot of it so I used my own conditioner too. When I got out of the shower I noticed my hair looked very dark, and not red at all. So I decided to dry it and see how it looked dried. I blow dried my hair and sure enough it was very dark brown almost black with no visible red at all. It turned out even darker than my natural hair color. The color is pretty and my hair looks great, but I’m a bit disappointed because it did not turn out the color I expected it to. I knew it wouldn’t be vibrant red but I wanted some red, I got none. I will purchase again but will probably try another color next time.

This is the second time I purchase Herbatint, I was really happy with the results! I have about 30-40% gray and some other brands end up looking very dark and unnatural on me but Herbatint looks very natural and I love it. The shades are a bit darker than commercial brands, the first time I bought Light Chestnut and the result was too dark for my taste. This time I got the Golden Dark Blonde and I really like it! It doesn’t smell to bad and it doesn’t dry out my hair at all. If you want to completely cover the grays, they recommend to use half of the corresponding N (Natural) shade on the mix, I only used the Golden because I don’t want 100% coverage.

I have very stubborn grey hair since I was in my teens and have been coloring my hair ever since. After years of Revlon, I finally found a product that works so much better and is cruelty free. In Revlon I am a true 4AR and was barely able to make it through a month before the roots showed again. This is soooo much nicer. The color is rich and the application was super easy and took the same amount of time and lasts almost 6 weeks before I have to touch up. One word of caution is that you will need to get a bowl and brush as this does not come with a squeeze bottle as applicator. Much better anyway as those are reusable and a breeze to clean. I cannot say enough good things about this product.
