A: Hi there, Yes, both are a dark brown with a neutral base. Differences are: Nice n Easy 4N is permanent and will cover 100% gray. Natural Instincts 4N is a Demi permanent and will wash out gradually (within 28 shampoos) and will blend gray up to 35%. If you are looking for more gray coverage, Nice n Easy would be a good option; however if you are looking for a more blended result that is more temporary, then Natural Instincts would be a good choice.

A: Hi, if your hair is colored black, you would need to remove the color first (color cannot lighten color). There are at home color removers or a professional stylist can help. If your hair is naturally black, and you choose a few shades lighter, you'll see a lift. If your hair is naturally black and you choose a color that is more than a few shades lighter, you may experience a lift but also a side effect of a warm (reddish) color. An ash or cool shade can be used to minimize the red tones, but its best to not go more than 2 shades lighter if you want to minimize any brass/red. Regardless, it is always recommended to do a strand test.
