Lovely colour
I have used this colour since it was introduced and love it. I get many compliments which is lovely at 81yrs. The only problem I have is finding it in local shops so often have to buy on line. It starts a little red but after the first shampoo it is perfect. Easy to apply and good instructions

Made hair cherry black
Bought this 2 weeks ago and put over freshly blonde box dye lightened hair (for reference I have back hair but use blonde box dye to take to a level 5 brown), the consistency was fine and it smelled nice and cinnamony but if turned my hair CHERRY BLACK. I had to use vitamin c and shampoo to try colour remove and damage control. It ended up darker than wanted and barely any red colour. Very disappointed and would recommend choosing 1 shade lighter or a different brand

Hi there! We do want to thank you for trying our Clairol Nice 'n Easy 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 08000833338, and we would be glad to further assist.

Dark copper result
There is nothing “light” or “ashy” about this colour. My hair which was first an ashy silver blonde has come out a VERY dark brown with GINGER at the roots.

Misleading Colour
Just bought this hair dye and am extremely unhappy with the results. Put it on my dark brown hair to over my roots and it washed out black. Not brown black, but black with blue undertones. Completely ruined my colouring and will not buy again.

SAD JOKE
I just finished coloring my hair using Clairol Nice'n Easy product SB2. It was to be a cool summer blond shade. My hair, that were previously colored blond, now turned very grey and blueish. Is this some joke ?! I am a mature person and what should I do now ? I will be ashamed to walk like this among other people ! I purchased this product trusting, that it will give me the color, that I needed and my money went into garbage and I'm NOT HAPPY with myself now. What should I do now ?

Great formula! Great results!
This haircolor is excellent. The formula is easy to use and not drippy. I love that the leave-in time is only 10 minutes and the smell is pleasant. I've been using L'Oreal for years but decided to try something new to change from reddish blonde to light auburn. I'm so glad I did. The color is shiny and I have some natural lights. Thank you!

Bring the blonde shades back!
Why are there very little choices for blonde shades??? Not everyone wants to be dark haired and looking ghostly even if it might be the fad! Can’t find 10A anywhere.

Beautiful colour that stays unchanged
This product gives my hair a natural brown colour that doesn't fade. It's the only dye that doesn't become orange in three weeks. I am having trouble to find it in shops lately. I really hope they don't discontinue it. It has taken me years to find something so good.

Not happy with blonde product
I have strawberry blonde hair and wanted to really lighten my hair, but it didn't even give me any kind of blonde. I followed directions to the tee.

Please Make More
I finally found a color I love that looks great on. I've gotten so many compliments on it. The only problem is I can't find it anywhere! Please make this available again! This is a must have.

Brilliant
I have brown hair with lots of grey hairs mixed in with the brown. I use 8 S and it is wonderful, I get so many lovely highlights and it looks like I've had highlights done by a professional. Brilliant.

Medium Brown 5 Colour Now Very Dark Brown /Black!
Having purchased Nice n Easy Medium Brown for 5 years and been very satisfied with the results, I bought the same product in Feb 2026. The result was totally different to every prior usage - it was dark, almost black and looked absolutely ridiculous. I had to get a second haircut , this time very short. I have no confidence in the colour representations of Clairol products any longer and will not be buying it in the future. It reflects on the poor integrity of Clairol and its disregard for its customers that no warning that this change in colour/formula had been made.

Carrots
If you like carrots, this is for you! I was born with red hair and was hoping for a natural look. This WAS NOT it. Hopefully, it will wash out.

Disappointed customer.
I have been using nice and easy light ash blonde 9a for many years and was great , so i decided to try soft silver 8s which on box would take on level 9 blonde but sadly wasted my money no change in hair colour whatsoever ! I was attending a party and looking forward to my new colour . Disappointed .
