Q: Is it good for relaxing hair?

submitted by Brownie - 4 years ago
  • A: Hello! John Frieda's Precision Foam Colour is a foam hair color that locks in salon-quality color and freshness, and not a relaxer product. Please call us with other questions at 800-521-3189.

    submitted byJohnFriedaExpert - 4 years ago
  • A: Hey, Coloring your hair right after this type of treatment can easily over process, over lighten, or make your hair more susceptible to damage. We recommend waiting two weeks between your chemical treatment and coloring your hair. For real-time answers to all your beauty questions, use the “Chat with a Virtual Beauty Consultant” button on any beauty product page.

Q: Hi I have dark long brown hair with gray hairs and I would like to know if this product is going to be burning or have that strong smell like other ones? I am looking at the espresso color.

submitted by Butterflybelle23 - 6 years ago
  • A: No burning & the smell is lighter than most. But beware, these products pull red VERY easily. Even the ones advertised as B or G.

    submitted byDallus67 - 6 years ago
  • A: Hello Butterflybelle23! This hair color does have a strong scent. As far as reactions go, we recommend conducting a patch test to be sure, before applying all over. Hope this is helpful!

    Do not buy this product

    The foam is a great idea. If you want it for grey coverage this items is horrible. The color doesn't really stick to hair. Also the cost is high for what it is.

    This product was fairly easy to use. I haven't used fixed hair color in a long time. The hardest part for me was right along the root because the gloves make your fingers kind of bulky so you have to be careful if only doing a section of hair. My daughter was just wanting the underneath brown to cover the blue she had done over summer. The part line was the trickiest part, everything else was simple.

    Great color, subpar roots coverage around face

    Easy to apply, minimizing drips and splatters, but difficult to cover stubborn gray near the edges around face. Color is great but the coverage in the edges is tricky.

    The people saying the smell is awful must not ever use box dye. It all smells “chemically” but this hair dye isn’t as bad as the others. It was definitely easier to work with than the creams. The color is a bit darker than I expected but i left it on 5 mins longer than suggested on the box… I got lost watching AI drama TikTok’s. The coverage was great (I had orangey brown hair) and now it’s a VERY dark brown. (Again my fault) I don’t have a review for how long it lasts bc I just did it an hour ago, but so far I’m pleased:) It also washes out easier than cream box dyes. I’ve used every box brand under the sun and I’ll most likely keep using this one bc the price is great, coverage is great and my hair still feels healthy. DONT FORGET TO READ THE INSTRUCTIONS! THEY ARE DIFFERENT THAN OTHER DYES!

    Didn't work for me

    I actually found the foam harder to work with. Didn’t cover my grays, maybe a darker color would have worked better for me. On a positive note my hair felt really soft for a while after using the product.

    I didn’t like how strong the ammonia smell was. And the foam application it seemed a bit odd. I wasn’t sure if the color was getting deposited or if it was the developer. I don’t think I’ll choose this method again.
