Clairol Natural Instincts Demi-Permanent Hair Dye, 5R Medium Auburn Hair Color, Pack of 1

I've always wanted to color my hair, but have never actually gotten around to doing it! I love the fact I didn't have to bleach my natural hair or anything for the color to be vibrant!! As this being my first time coloring my hair, I was so surprised it didn't smell bad and how easy the process was. If you reference my photos, I have medium length hair that goes a bit past my shoulders. I ended up buying 3 boxes of the dye, but I could've gotten away with buying 2 (I really wanted to make sure my hair was properly saturated). If you're someone who is contemplating dying your hair, but is worried about the commitment... GET THIS DYE!!! It's supposed to wash out over time, so I'll have to come back to review how it fades! So far, I'm extremely impressed with the results I had!

I left it on 3x as long as directed.. well.. by the time I got around to using the showerhead to rinse out my hair color Ahahah! I may resemble an antique fire hydrant but hey it will fade.. and I am not having to look at a single gray hair whatsoever when I walk past the bathroom mirror as I choose to hide my crown of wisdom ") Although the main reason I did it was not vanity.. this hair color actually makes your hair sooo much healthier and in my book that beats picking up broken hairs everywhere when you have very long hair.

This is great hair color but this color is more reddish than appears if your hair is a light color. For more brownish color go with golden light brown. It has perfect mount iof auburn red mix that looks more natural. .but if bright red is your color it must be blonde ir grey to take that color . I mix this color thought with light golden brown to get auburn high lights. Mix half and half of each tube's and tighten lids fir next time.

I dyed my hair red for years but had to stop due to damage. Found this “Demi permanent” and decided to go back. My hair doesn’t feel damaged, the color turned out well, and doesn’t seem to be fading super quick. But the staining of this dye is very weird. It stained my tub when I rinsed it out, luckily a couple rounds of Clorox bleach spray got it out. Rinsing it also stained my hands and nail polish. The gloves included are giant and awful, when I did touchups I used kitchen gloves instead, and it was 1000x better.Overall, the dye was good for my hair, but I wouldn’t use again without bleach handy, and might wear gloves to rinse it out.

This is my go-to hair color. Easy to apply and goes on my VERY dark hair easily and effectively.

Bueno

but nice outcome

Color is vibrant. the application process was super easy and my hair feels so soft and shiny
