  • Silicone-free + ammonia-free
  • Lasts 3-4 weeks

Description

I always recommend that my clients come to get glossed and toned
between salon visits to extend the life of their color. I’m finally able
to give them, and you, something that is easy to use at home.
This in-shower treatment is formulated to instantly boost vibrancy
and shine, and adds depth to color treated or naturally dark brown
hair. It will help you keep your color looking fresh, shiny and healthy
between appointments.

Choose this color if you have dark brown hair and want to neutralize or
tone out any warmth or brassiness.

HOW TO:
(Read all instructions thoroughly before glossing your hair)
1. wet your hair thoroughly in the shower.
2. mix bottle 1 and 2 together, shake gently and apply all over.
3. wait 10-20 minutes, depending on the result you want, then rinse thoroughly.
4. shampoo and condition as usual.

VIBRANCY BOOSTING TECHNOLOGY:
creates a protective shield over the hair to instantly boost shine
and help lock-in your color.

ANTI-OXIDANT COMPLEX:
smooths and softens hair from root to tip making hair more
manageable.

ALKALINE NEUTRALIZING SYSTEM:
protects from color fading by preventing hard water minerals from
being deposited onto the hair and scalp.

LET’S TALK…

WHO NEEDS THIS?
anyone with dark brown hair looking to tone down brassiness and boost shine.

WHAT IS IT?
in-shower treatment that nourishes strands and restores vibrancy.

WHEN DO I USE IT?
in-between salon visits or any time your color looks dull or “brassy”.

WILL IT COVER gray HAIR?
ammonia-free formula will not lift, lighten or cover grays.

IS IT PERMANENT?
color lasts 3-4 weeks and will
gradually fade, depending on how often you shampoo.


Color + keratin safe.

Q: Are all of Kristin Ess products vegan or animal cruelty free?

submitted by Annabee1335 - 6 years ago

Q: Is this just one time use? I know you have to combine the two bottles on the spot but it seems like a lot of product for just one time

submitted by chowdown - 1 month ago
  • A: Hello! Thank you for your question! Yes it is one time use, you cannot save unused Kristin Ess Hair Signature Glosses in the bottle for later use. Once the gloss is mixed, you should use it within an hour because the active ingredients are no longer effective. However, you don't have to use the entire bottle of Kristin Ess Signature Hair Gloss, and the amount you need depends on the length and thickness of your hair. If you have long hair or thicker hair, you'll probably need to use the whole bottle. If you have shorter hair or finer hair you might not need to use the entire bottle to saturate your hair with the gloss, and can dispose of the unused portion. Hope this helps!

Love this gloss! I use it to cover up a pretty bright balayage and it worked well, i'm not sure how well it fades but you can always just go over it again. I will say the color on the box isn't very accurate and it depends on your current hair color so do research and find photos of people with similar hair color! I let it sit for about 10-15 minutes and my hair is so shiny and soft.

Life saver! I dyed my grown out honey blonde highlights hair with Sally’s dark brown permanent because I just wanted less maintenance. I guess my roots over developed and they were s reddish brown and the rest of my hair was DARK. I used this gloss to help cancel the light roots. I was not disappointed! My roots are dark and look natural, shiny and soft. I wish I started with this gloss first instead of the Sally’s stuff

I don't normally leave reviews but i had to for this one. I got this in the shade wild berry expecting a really pretty dark red but it turned the top of my hair RED and the rest copper. I did everything the instructions said and it looks super uneven. It didn't make my hair glossy but made it dry. I have brown hair pretty much the same color as the one in the before picture. I have dyed my hair before and have never had any issues.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was some good hair dye, I do wish I had another box because I didn't realize how thick my hair was but what I honestly loved most was the instructions talking to me like we were home girls lol. It was cute. It let a nice shine and was a lot easier then regular box dye.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was a lovely gloss honestly. It's a two part system you mix leave in for however long and end with beautiful hair that looks nearly salon quality. I grew up with a hair stylist and honestly this wasn't any different than the pro stuff I get at Sally's with everything you need. Gloves are included and the results are a rich beautiful multidimensional hair color.

Dried out my hair and stained my pillow even after washing out the dye twice. Results are not very noticeable and washed out very quickly. Not worth the money.

I have curly low porosity dry hair. I straightened my hair after using this product and saw little to no difference. Barely any shine, but for the price you can’t expect much. I will say my hair definitely felt softer and healthier, but I was really looking for shine.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have tried this brand before and have been very happy with the product. However the color I picked was too light for my current hair color so I wasn’t able to see the benefit of the color in my hair.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I feel like this would work for someone needing to add shine while eliminating brass. I didn't notice too much of a difference in my hair bc it was healthy to begin with. It was very easy to work with! Not too bad of a smell and did not dry out my hair.
