GarnierHerbashine Haircolor, 300 Dark Natural Brown

I have been using this for 2 years now and get so many compliments on the color and dimension of my hair. People cannot believe it is not my natural color because it has so many highlights and I can't believe I am saving so much money coloring it myself!I have very thick shoulder length hair and am about 25% gray. When I first started using this color I found it was not covering my gray so I talked to my hairdresser about it. He told me to leave it in 25 minutes (which is longer than the box said). Once I did that I got full gray coverage and was much happier. Leaving it on longer did not damage my hair in any way.Now here's another tip that made this color work exceptionally well for me. I used to have strawberry blonde hair but as I got older it got less strawberry and more dull honey blonde. I found when I used the this, the color took more strongly the further away from my roots it got, which did not look natural. So I got a special mixing cup and started using only half the ingredients. I apply the color only to my roots and use my fingers to pull the color down the shaft. This gets more color where I need it and less where I don't. Plus, I am able to use the rest of the ingredients for a second coloring 4-6 weeks later.The only bad thing about this product is that is now discontinued and I can't find another semi-permanent color to replace it. I bought 6 boxes here on Amazon, which should easily last me over a year, in hopes that I can come up with an alternative. It seems everywhere I go, semi-permanent color of any brand is missing from the shelves.

Hands down the best semi-perm hair color. I love the semi-perm hair colors, and use them exclusively. I am at a loss why most have disappeared from the stores??? The thing is, since they don't have ammonia, and the other harsh chemicals needed to make color permanent, they deposit a layer of color ONTO the hair shaft, sealing and conditioning it, rather than stripping it, hair is silkier and shinier than before coloring. The permanent ones just don't leave hair as nice, and I've tried most of them. Even the Garnier. There are many semi-perms out there, BUT, if you need good gray coverage, you need one if these two part colors, the ones you mix the color and developer, not the ones you just pour on, one step, from the bottle. For me, these last until my roots are growing out. I do not wash my hair every day. I do have to use the Dark Brown 400 for the good coverage. These don't smell bad, but def have an odor. It doesn't last beyond the 24 hrs after using. 20 min color, doesn't drip or run bad. Keep a separate towel for your hair. For some reason these colors DO NOT come out of towels once they stain. And the color will come out a little each time you shampoo. I think the gray hair holds onto it better. So, there is really no down side to this product, never had a bad experience. You cannot lighten your hair with semi-perms, but why would you want to? Bleaching/stripping is SO bad for your tresses. And brunettes are awesome!

I was disappointed in this product because the plastic bottle shattered when I mixed the ingredients, and I got very little of the product in my hair, but the company refunded my money.

I am 62 years old. My hair is baby fine and I consider it very tender. My hair WAS a mousey grey. I hated it! When my hair really started turning white around my temples and forehead, it came in platinum and it was well defined and blended well. People would comment "Your hair is lovely, where did you get your color done?" Well, that was two years ago. Then over the last two years it settled into a mousey grey with white and platinum and grey and ash brown. So I took the plunge although I was very anxious because, as I said above, my hair is very tender but I just couldn't live with the color it had become. I decided on Light Golden Brown 630. WELL, I'm here to tell you that Herbashine covered my platinum, white, grey and the little ash brown I had left. I colored my hair maybe 15-25 years ago, and Herbashine color and procedure is very pleasant and improved and I didn't have to air out the bathroom for two days and I didn't have an asthma attack from the fumes. My hair is soft and there are highlights (where the white/platinum was) so it is not a solid color. I AM VERY PLEASED. Can't wait to try other colors or stick with the Light Golden Brown. But I WILL be using Herbashine again!

I love this color! Im a teenager, and as always I wanted something different. I naturally have dark brown hair, nearly black, but after so many times of getting blonde highlights and dying my hair lighter colors, it never went back to its natural color. It was more of a moussy dark brown and shined more of a golden color, it wasnt very flattering. So I got this, to add a little color to it. Ive been getting compliments on my hair all day! People saying it looks so much better, and they love the mahogany color that shines from it when im standing in the sun or in any good lighting.In all my experiences of dying my hair, this was by far the easiest and best experience ive EVER had! It smells so good, you can barely smell the dye in it like some others. It only took ten minutes as promised, and turned out perfect. (: Applying the dye was easy too, expecially considering this is the first time ive done it myself. It was very quick and easy to do. I have a little longer than shoulder length hair and i still had about 1/5 of the extra dye left in the bottle.Overall, Im extremely happy with my purchase. $7 do-it-yourself or $75 from a cheap salon? I chose the $7, and it was the best choice ive ever made. (: I absolutely recommend this product.

j en suis ravie !!je n ai pas eu de soucis avec le cuir chevelu !facile a poser et la teinte à été ce que je désirai!! je le recommande
