The package all crunched up. The outer box was busted up and this item was also broken up.

Fixable color
Color can be mixed with other LOreal Touch Up Colors to lighten color for consistent shade.

Good coverage
First time doing root touch ups at home. The color covered all my little pesky grays and I will continue to save money and use this product at home instead of going to the salon. The included brush also made the application super easy.

Great volume and ease of use
I love this product, unfortunately I’ve been unable to find it for some time in the dark brown shade. I didn’t have to color my hair at all, just used it und it gave such color and great volume. I sure wish Clairol would bring it back. None of the other products come close to this one in easy of use and end result. Please bring it back!

Not the right tube!
Something is wrong with this specific shade!!! If I use the medium brown, I get the brown color in the tube. If I do this box, it’s almost like they put a conditioner in it! I’ve reported this to Target multiple times, and no one seems to be relaying it to Clairol. It’s such a waste of time…

Great colour match
I have been using this product since Covid when hairdressers were closed. I use it for the touch up between salon visits. It's easy to use and the colour match is great. I have auburn hair with highlights I use 1/2 a tube of colour 6 and 1/2 colour 7

Product has been downgraded
I have used this product for many years (#8 medium blonde) and it worked great. When I colored my gray roots the color lasted a long time. But now when I do the touch up on my roots within a few days the product wears off and the hair I colored is gray again. Therefore I will no longer spend my money on this downgraded product.

Shocking Good!
Was so skeptical to try this but my colorist was booking a month out and I was headed on a spur of moment holiday. Came out shockingly good! Left on 20 min because I wanted the full lift to match my blonde highlights. Easy to use, affordable and best of all..major time saver! Def geting this again when nedd.

Great but impossible to find!
I’ve been using the 5r shade for a few years now but it has become impossible to find anywhere. Has it been discontinued? What’s going on?

Out of stock indefinitely?
Has this product shade (Medium Auburn 5R) been discontinued in the UK? It has not been available at any stocking outlets for some months now. I am having to substitute with the dark auburn, giving my hair an ombré look between full colours. Not ideal! Any information would be much apreciated!

No longer available?
I have used this for ages with success so would've given more stars, but cannot find in stock anymore. Why are auburn girls discriminated against?
