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, while neutralizing warmth on color treated or naturally ultra light blonde hair. It will help you keep your color looking fresh, shiny and healthy between appointments.

Choose this color if you have ultra light blonde hair and want to neutralize or tone down warmth.


How to:
(read all instructions thoroughly before glossing your hair)
1. wet hair thoroughly in the shower.
2. mix bottles 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 ultra light blonde hair looking to tone down warmth and enhance 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 hair color looks too warm 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.

Q: I'm a natural re head and want to tone down the warmth. Would Winter Wheat be appropriate/safe to try?

submitted by Mum23 - 1 year ago
  • A: Hello Mum23! Winter Wheat is best if you have light blonde hair and want to neutralize or tone down warmth. We hope this helps!

    submitted byTarget Beauty Consulting - 1 year ago
    Brand expert
  • A: Hello! We would strongly advise to stay within your color family when using our toning glosses. The Winter Wheat is recommended for light blonde hair and will likely not have any affect on your red hair. We would suggest our Purple Shampoo and Conditioner to help tone the brassiness. Hope this helps!

Q: I've been using the celestial skies conditioner & I'd like to switch to pink/purple. Im interested in the wild berry gloss. I'm worried that it might look terrible because Celestial Skies fades in my hair to a greenish brown. Any recommendations/advice?

  • A: Hi Ellie H! This gloss will enhance and tone your hair color in between visits to the salon or dying it at home.

  • A: Hello! We highly recommend allowing the Celestial Skies shade to fade completely before applying our toning gloss. The Wild Berry is formulated for brown hair and for the best results, it is highly advised to ensure the base is brown prior to using this specific toning gloss. Hope this helps!

Q: Does Kristin Ess Signature Hair Gloss have a strong smell? I'm sensitive to fragrance.

submitted by Rivergirl - 3 years ago
  • A: No, it was not bad at all. I used it and then went to bed and I did not wake up all night to a WEIRD smell as I would when I used hair dye. there is, of course a smell while you are using it, while it is on your head, but it is not "fumey" and not horrible. You are instructed to wash your hair after rinsing the product out, so that may be why the lingering smell was not strong or bad.

    submitted byCanyon Gal - 3 years ago
  • A: Thanks for your question! The Signature Hair Glosses do not have any added fragrance and will not have a lingering smell once rinsed out.

Q: How long dose this dye work until it washes out?

submitted by How long dose it last - 3 years ago
  • A: Thanks for your question! The Signature Hair Gloss lasts between 3-4 weeks depending on how often you wash your hair. This will help extend the life of your color in between your hair appointments.

    submitted byKristin Ess Hair - 3 years ago

  • A: According to their online site, 3-4 weeks depending on how frequently you wash your hair. I'm just using for the first time.

Q: The salon did lowlights and highlights. the blond highlights are a center of banana color toned to a light gray. I would like the lowlights to be a silver color without brassiness Eileen

submitted by Eileenmom3 - 1 month ago
  • A: Hey Eileenmom3, We would recommend to use the Color Winter Wheat if you have light blonde hair and want to neutralize or tone down warmth. Using a purple shampoo in your hair wash routine can also maintain the silver/ashy tones in your hair!

Q: I had some product left over after intial use-- can I use it again even if it's been a few weeks?

submitted by Jent927 - 2 months ago
  • A: Hi Jent927 The glosses are actually for one-time use only. Once the color is mixed it's only good for about 30 minutes. If you have short hair or don't think you'll need to use the whole thing, you can get a separate applicator bottle, mix half of each of the bottles into that, then screw the lids back on and save the other half for another time. Hope this helps!

Q: would like to do a test b/4 applying to all my hair. what is the ratio of mixes so I can mix a small amount? if the product only last 30 minutes after mixing, it would not still be good after drying.

submitted by Cbass885 - 4 months ago
  • A: Hello If you are doing a strand test or have short hair, you can get a separate applicator bottle or container, mix half or 1 tablespoon (for strand test) of each bottle, then screw the lids back on and save the products. But once the color is mixed it's only good for about 30 minutes. You'll also want to ensure the lids are back on tight since the gloss can oxidize and you may not get the optimum results. Hope this helps!

Q: If I have highlights will it lift my dark natural roots? I'm looking for a non lifting product.

submitted by Ghan725 - 4 months ago
  • A: Hello Ghan725 Our Signature Hair Gloss can not lift the natural hair color. Our toning glosses are intended to add shine, tone the hair and either neutralize or add warmth to the hair and can not lighten the hair. I hope this helps!

I have dark hair so I didn’t expect it to be vibrant. However, after I put it on, the color really shines through especially in the sun. Gives a nice color. I would purchase again.

This is the best copper toner for dark blondes looking to go red. I left it on for 20 minutes and the result is everything I’ve been looking for. It exaggerates the darker red tones so it doesn’t turn out orangey. I went from blonde to natural red head in 20 minutes and will never go to the salon again! I have two photos of my blonde before, and 2 photos of the after!

Tabby - 8 days ago, Verified purchaser
Okay, so this product definitely worked for my hair (as seen in the photos). However, the application was VERY messy (which maybe there’s a better way to apply but it looked like I killed a clown in my bathtub and all over my body). And then once I rinsed it out my hair felt very dry and I did notice some hair loss but not nearly as much as other reviews and it felt better after applying a conditioner and elixir. It is also not like most semi-permanent hair dyes in that it comes with a developer which could contribute to the hair damage I experienced. I can’t contribute on how long it’s lasted given I’ve just done it the other day but if you do not dry it after showering you will 100% get it on your sheets. Overall a 3-3.5/5, most likely will not be trying again but it was a nice change in pace!

I don’t know if something changed or this was a bad batch; but I’ve been using this gloss for years and it always looked great. I just used this one I bought and it had a weird yellow tint to it. It looks like someone peed in my hair; there’s barely any red. I hope it was just a faulty batch because I used to love this gloss

I was skeptical and scared but my brassiness was getting irritating so I tried winter wheat. I'm impressed that it toned it down to a warmer look even at my roots and conditioned as well. I was conservative and only left on 10 minutes. I'm buying again and will apply for the whole 20 minutes. I'm excited that it worked so well.

I normally love these toning glosses but the Chocolate Cosmo color was way too orange and made my hair look red/orange. Definitely would stick with the Smokey Topaz or a more neutral gloss as this gloss was way off for my coloring. It did leave my hair smooth though.

Beautiful color. Definitely toned down brass. Was hoping it would pull some blonde lights through but did not. I used the Smokey Topaz. Mixed very pretty with my darker hair. Didn’t cover grey hairs much, but did blend them into a smoky brown color which is actually really pretty. Very soft and smooth. I would definitely recommend this product.

I've never written a review before and feel embarrassed. I can't believe this product did this to my hair. My natural hair was a pretty brown and I just wanted it to be shiny and a little more vibrant. As you can see.. my hair is now a purple black with dark brown roots... I'm just now seeing everyone's reviews about chocolate cosmo and feel like a fool. @Kristin Ess can you put for the huge salon bill about about to have trying to fix this? and please please stop selling this product 💀

Did nothing but turn hair black af. I have dark brown hair with a red undertone so I decided to add shine to my hair as I use harsh shampoos. This is hair dye. I now have a root where my "gloss" dyed my hair pitch black and my brown hair is growing. It's been a month and it hasn't faded because it's DYE. for gloss and at home toning your better off with a shower color conditioner.
