Wheres the color??
So my natural hair is already a dark brown but it’s noticeable that it’s brown, so I bought the dark warm brown but it dyed my hair black?? It looks nothing like the color on the box. The picture where I have the orange jacket is the before and the picture with the dye box next to my head is the after .

ok more natural option
I wasn't so happy with this product because it didn't cover my grays completely like other product although I do appreciate it being more of a natural option

Love the Shade!
I have been using this shade for years. It's so easy to apply. I need to cover grey roots and don't want a permanent product that damages my hair. I do leave it on longer, about 20 minutes, to cover my grey. I love the color!

Crazy Color!!!!
My natural color is I a light brown with red highlights, auburn. This turned my gray roots into a slightly darker version of Lucille Ball’s orange/red color. It’s great if you want to look like a circus clown. 🤡

Too dark
I got the dark warm brown. My hair before wasnt super dark but I thought this color was beautiful. Its definitely dark almost too much. Also the one glove was missing a finger and was split on the side

Hi there! We do want to thank you for trying our Clairol Natural Instincts line; yet, we are truly saddened to learn that you had darker results than intended! The use of a clarifying shampoo, followed by a deep conditioner can sometimes soften a color that is too dark. We also suggest that you avoid the use of heat (ex: blow dryers, curling irons) which can further set the color in. If the clarifying shampoo does not lift out enough of the color, please call to speak with one of our hair color experts! You can contact us at 1-800-252-4765, and we would be glad to further assist.

Great! But leave it on gray roots for 20 mins 1st
While I don't love the smell of this I love how my hair came out! It was very red before and the roots which are mostly white were like a yellowish due to me doing a permanent root coverage with an 8A/8N combo. Doing 7 Dark blonde made my hair looks so even and shiny, although it didn't remove the red. I did have to go back and put some more on the roots for 20 mins after blow drying though. Next time I will do the roots for 20 first, then the mids to ends for 20. Maybe 7A will be the way to go next time?

Damaging & does not lighten
I bought this thinking I had grabbed Garnier Fructis because of the green colored box. Well, what a mistake ! It left my hair incredibly dried ! Also, the color was meant to be lighter than the color I had last bought (from Garnier Fructis) - it did not lighten all & the Garnier was an actual darker color and it managed to dye my hair the color it was meant too

Hi there! Thank you for using our Natural Instincts line, but we regret that the color did not give you the results you expected and dry results. Since the Natural Instincts is a demi-permanent hair color, it cannot lighten natural or previously colored hair. It is best to use a shade close to your natural color to help with grey blending with this product line. This product has conditioning in every step of the coloring process; so, this is not the experience we want you to have nor what we would expect and we would like to help you further. When you have a moment, you may call us at 1-800-252-4765 so we can better assist!

Finally found a non brassy color 5C
I have highlighted dirty blonde hair. I wanted a change and less upkeep. I have a few grays, but didn’t really need coverage for that. I was looking for something not give me “orangey” tones, since I tend to pull that way. Extremely impressed-no orange and very vibrant. Hair looks glossy. Not sure how this will fade yet. Very pleased and will apply again.

Rose Gold Blonde is the best!
7RG is the most beautiful natural looking red shade ever! I buy it in bulk so that I’m never without. I always get so many compliments on the color of my hair. Everyone thinks I’m a natural redhead and when I tell them it’s from a box, they are shocked! Please don’t stop making this color!

did not cover my gray hairs
I wanted to like it and while I do like the color it came out on my brown hair but it did not cover gray hairs at all which was the point.

Disappointed
It states that this product doesn't contain phenylenediamine however after reading the ingredients it clearly states that it does. I have had some allergic reaction to that ingredient so when I read that it doesn't contain said ingredient I purchased 2 boxes only to find it does. I feel like I have been mislead 😕

Color is different now
This used to be a great color. Now, it turns my hair a reddish, golden color. Rusty-looking. It seems something has changed in the formulation. Very dissappointed.
