XMONDO Color Copper Color Depositing Mask & Semi-Permanent Hair Dye Super Gloss Infused with Bond Boosters for Nourishment, Revitalize & Repair, Vegan Formula, 8 Fl Oz

I ADORE this product. I have used XMONDO before in the Garnet shade, and I enjoyed it, so I decided to use this soft black color. I was so impressed to read that it contains no PPD (which a lot of drug store black hair dyes have, and it can cause horrible allergic reactions) and is vegan. The product is thick, almost like a gel, so it's not going to drip and run as the more liquid dyes do. I found this makes the application a thousand times easier. It has a very light, pleasant floral smell. Before application, I put Vaseline around my hairline (forehead, ears, and back of neck) and used gloves to apply the product. I let it sit for 20 minutes and then rinsed it out. I had NO issues with it staining my skin or my tub/shower or towels/pillowcases, etc. I put fresh gloves on to rinse the color out of my hair, and I rinsed it for a good 10 minutes just to be thorough. I would say if you do get any on your skin, just use some micellar water or makeup remover, and it should wash off easily. I let my hair air dry, and when it was dry, it was so beautiful. The color was distributed evenly through my hair, it is a shiny black, looks so healthy, not flat and dull. For reference, my hair is naturally an auburn brown, and it is long (almost to the small of my back, but cut in layers), straight, and has a fine to medium texture. I used about 1/3 of the jar to completely cover my hair, so there is a lot left over for touch-ups. My skin is sensitive, but I had zero reaction to this product. I really can't say enough good about it.

This stuff is GREAT. I’m naturally a 7n hair color, been dying it box dye black for YEARS and about 6 months ago decided to grow out the black hair and opt for something more natural, I recently applied this to my “virgin hair” and it’s just as dark as black box dye. I got the “blue black” and I will say, it is a true “blue black”. I was using Transylvania by arctic fox and it would wash out and turn the bath water blue, then purple, then green. This is straight up “blue” black. It sticks much longer to virgin hair than arctic fox and it smells AMAZING and I love how thick it is and that it comes in a tub that’s easy to just put a glove on your hands and dip your fingers in the tub and apply to your hair. No squeeze bottle to have to grab and squeeze once your gloves are covered In dye. I made ZERO mess with this dye as opposed to other dyes that come In squeeze bottles. I haven’t noticed any bleeding onto bedding or clothing. And the best part is your hair feels so healthy and soft once you wash it out! This is the best option for anyone with naturally light hair looking to grow out black box dye. No permanent damage from bleaching the color out and no lines of demarcation from just trying to grow it out without any dye at all. Once it’s all grown out you just keep washing and washing until all the hair color is gone.

This review is specifically for the 5N /dark brown color Scent - same scent as other xmondo products. To me it is very jasmine perfume. I personally don’t care for the scent but some people love it. I can deal with it but could be a negative if you are sensitive to fragrance. Or it could be a huge plus if you love the scent Packaging - solid quality feel packaging. Nice wide opening allows you to easily access the product whether using a brush or hands. No need for color bowls. Value - I’d say this heavily depends on your hair. Short hair will probably get 3-5 uses. I have shoulder length hair and looks like I’ll get 2-3 uses. Longer hair may get one use or need 2 for really long hair. Feel - thick consistency. Nice that it’s not runny. You have good control over it. Like a thick conditioning mask Caution this WILL stain on contact. Make sure you are careful to cover the area you are working in and wear gloves. I have a dark tile shower but I would not be surprised if this would stain a white tub. I would def say have the bleach ready to go to clean up immediately. Color - obviously this will vary by person but here’s my experience. I have naturally dark hair (level 4). I also have some grey and bleached highlights. I have been trying to transition to a lower maintenance hair routine in the last 2 years and mainly using semi permanent color (professionally done). I’m not a stranger to dark hair. I’ve had level 3 color in the past (which for most people is essentially black). I am not a hairdresser but imo this is not a level 5 color as the name would imply. To me, getting my hair colored for 20 years on my base, this is a 3/4. It is very very dark, almost black. I’d strongly suggest doing a test strand if going too dark is a concern for you. There are a lot of green undertones so you will not have any warmth. Would I recommend? No. Do the test strand. For myself, I feel like I need something softer at this point. This color feels a bit harsh on me but it may be exactly what you’re looking for. Update - I tried the 5G color. Mistake! This has such heavy red tones that I look like red was my intended color. Extremely disappointed and will not be trying any more of these colors. I actually went to sally beauty to see if they had anything to help the heavy red brassy tones. Thankfully it’s semi permanent so I’ll be trying clarifying shampoo and blue shampoo to hopefully quickly reduce the unwanted color. Honestly the reaction when I told the lady I had used this said it all. Not recommended

I wanted to love this product. I have wanted to try it for so long being a fan of the creator. I read that it said a single container could be about 2-3 applications. I assumed that meant for the average persons length and thickness of hair. I have above average length and thick hair! I figured it would be at least "one" full application for me. I ran out before I finished the top of my head. I was irriateted but, my fault. The consistency made it very loose, meaning it flung onto walls, dripped down my hair, and was just a mess! I have never had a messier product. It smelled fine, it went on kinda rough, not like a creme; smooth and moisturizing, but I could not comb my hair after application. The rinsing was my final straw. My shower was stained, horribly!! It was everywhere!!! I spent a good 40 minutes scrubbing my bathtub and walls and floors. And unfortunately there are still to this day (Dec. when purchased in Oct.) walls and spots that are stained brown. Subsequent shampooings also made a big mess until it fully washed out. Which to its credit was weeks later. (with twice a week shampooing). The best part was the color was gorgeous, it made my hair feel soft and nice. I wish I could recreate this product to not be so messy, and with the cost, I cannot justify purchasing 2 containers to cover my hair, every month or so.

I gave 4 stars because this product does NOT cover grays. I watched many reviews for XMONDO and virtually all of them said that it covered their grays, leaving only a few stragglers behind. Just beware it definitely does NOT cover grays. It gives them maybe a slight tint but that’s about it. That being said, it does smell really good. No chemical odor that virtually all other hair dyes reek of. It also left my hair feeling incredibly soft, shiny and healthy. With a very deep and rich color (I used 7A for reference) Even though it will mean spending more, I will purchase this again. I will get something else to cover the grays and then put this over the top of that because it really does seem to be a very good product, just temper your expectations in regard to coverage.

I recently went from platinum blonde to lived in blonde with a natural 5/6 root. The contrast was really severe even with a perfect blend. I wanted to try something cool, but darker for fall without committing to something more permanent. This was the right choice! I've never been disappointed with anything from Xmondo thus far! I've actually been waiting for Brad to come out with the higher end colors of this mask! The 8A lived up to my expectations! It's really a classy beautiful ash without a severe gray tone. It looks very natural. Along with my seamless blend that's starting to grow out, it really shines! Before application I only shampooed my hair, and used a k-18 leave in. Once my hair was dry I worked from the nape of my neck up in small sections while using a detangling brush to make sure the product was going on evenly. It's really easy to apply, and the brush went smoothly through my hair without tangling. The product smells lovely too. I did twist it all up after application, and tucked it into a shower cap. I popped a beanie over it. I had to bake my sourdough bread, and walk my dogs along other evening tasks. I finished the application around 9pm then washed it out as directed with shampoo and conditioner. There's was barely any color rinsing down the drain. I'm not sure if it's that good for the vivids, but it didn't stain anything. The bonding tech in the product was very noticeable with how soft my hair felt while rising and shampooing. I added a picture of my hair wet and dry. The color was pretty true even when it was still wet. It felt amazing while I was drying my hair. The bonders were not slacking! It feels so silky soft! I baby my blonde but I still feel a difference after all is said and done. Smells lovely, too. I'm also going to be buying the xmondo fragrance spray. I just love the xmondo signature scents. All around it exceeded my expectations! Even with this rich color it still feels bright! I'm looking forward to seeing my hair in natural light in the morning! It's just a all around beautiful ash. I have very fair skin with dark blue eyes and this color just makes my look complete! My skin tone goes really well with this color and the blue in my eyes pops as much as it did when it was white white blonde! I am so very pleased!!

Let me start by saying that I love Brad Mondo. I love watching all of his tutorials, reactions, etc and find them to be both entertaining and educational. I have been so badly wanting to incorporate some of his products into my hair care routine, such as his Forcefield Heat Shield, Hydrify Leave-In Conditioning Mist, Salty Sea Salt Spray, Wavetech Wave Setting Spray and Electric Rain Moisture Cream. I started writing my hair description in paragraphs, and that was way too long so I'm going to bullet point: Hair Type: I have ultra fine hair, it's like baby hair and while that's usually a flex ("Oooh, baby smooth skin!"), I don't feel like it is atleast when it comes to my hair. Hair Length: Down to my derriere. Hair Texture: Ultra curly and super tight wave patterns mixed. Curly Q's everywhere, especially on shorter pieces, and tight waves that end in curly Q's. It's a scary mess when natural. Hair Color: Dark blonde with once-a-year highlights. Moisture: Dry, very dry. Routine: Wash 1x week, lots of heat protectant, blow dry it out with blowout brush, either curling iron for waves or Le Duo into straightish waves. Finish with hair oil. So, finally we get to this product. A month ago, I got my annual highlights but I was lacking shine in my hair shortly after going to the salon. I was pretty bummed out about it for a few weeks and that's when I saw Brad Mondo's Clear Super Gloss treatment! I had the Christmas money to go ahead and splurge a bit on myself and ordered it right away! It arrived, I waited until hair washing day and followed the instructions. I washed my hair well, then dried it using cool/medium heat on low setting because I didn't want to put any product in since it reads "clean, dry hair" on the instructions. Opening the product initially, I thought it had a very subtle and pleasant scent. The texture was like a cream + gel mixture, and it's both silky and sticky. Very weird, but not a negative. Just is. I then got to work sectioning all my hair and completely coating every single strand. I started in my front fringe lengths, then went to the back to work my way back up to the front since my front fringe area was so dull. It took the entire container to coat my lengths. I went up to the roots in the top half of my hair because of the new highlights there. When it comes to value for money, I understand that the product itself costs money to manufacture, and also that MY choice to have extremely long hair IS going to cost ME more money to do things to it. With that in mind, a treatment like this covering my entire head of very long hair at least once is worth it. Most of the time I'd have to buy two of something, or if I ever box dyed my hair (hypothetically speaking, the only coloring or highlighting happening to this hair is from a licensed and insured hair stylist since 2010 when I bleached my own hair into mushy spaghetti) I would need at minimum, three boxes of dye. So, this treatment is worth the money in product coverage. I then used my tangle teezer brush to brush the product through my hair very, very gently and waited the 20 minutes before very thoroughly washing it out. I'm talking at least a 15 minute shower of designated rinsing with my detachable shower head. Remember, ultra fine hair and a lot of it. At first it was very thick to rinse, I had some slight concern but it did eventually rinse out well. This didn't bother me considering it's a glossing treatment - one should expect it to be a thick coating during the treatment process, right? Anyways, afterwards, I blow dried it and styled it into curling iron waves using all of my normal products. I am pleased to say that the visual effects were beneficial, my hair looks shinier than before. It also did not weigh down my hair anymore than it normally does on its own, again the "baby fine" curse that I battle using Sea Salt Spray and Dry Shampoo at my roots through the week. So why the 2 stars for a product that completely coats a massive amount of hair and does what it says it's going to do? Well, unfortunately for me, that subtle pleasant smelling product started smelling like fish and rotten eggs about 15 minutes after sitting on my hair. At first, it was very faint, but I also had my hair in one of my silk caps while it processed. The smell only worsened from that point on, through rinsing and styling. So even though I did achieve what it claims, I can't use this product again. It's been over a day later and my hair still clearly smells like fish and rotten eggs. I'm covering it with other heavily scented products to make it to the next wash day. I can't say with certainty if this foul smell will effect anyone else, though. In general, I already have a hard time just finding body soaps, deodorants, etc that won't make me smell like fish after mixing with my body chemistry. For example, I can use Bath and Body Works Japanese Cherry Blossom body wash and smell great while Bath and Body Works At the Beach body wash makes me smell like a beached whale. The rotten eggs smell, however, is not a normal bad-mix-reaction scent for me. That's very specific to this product and myself. So bottom line: Product did what it says it's will do, but beware of a very foul odor that may or may not affect you. At least I look pretty if nobody gets too close to me to smell me?

I mainly bought this to eliminate red/orange tones from my previous hair dye, and to have it blend more with my natural hair color. The instructions say to leave for 20 mins but I was hesitant as to how it’ll look, so I did 10 mins! RESULTS: 2nd photo is 3 days later under the same lighting. It definitely got rid of the red/orange tones I wanted and it looks more blended :) I applied the product on my roots as well. (I could have gone darker if I wanted to too) I didn’t use the whole jar and I still have SO MUCH more product left. Highly recommend. HAIR TYPE: Low porosity, Thick, Frizzy, soft waves. TIPS: use vaseline to avoid staining skin, and wear gloves!

Maybe it’s just my hair (fine and not highly processed), but this product left a horrible coating on my hair that made it look like it hadn’t been washed for a month. No shine. I had to wash and wash to get it out.

Amazing product. A little darker than I expected but better than my previous yellow blonde. My hair feels so much softer after this and it smells amazing, I keep smelling my hair like a crazy person.

Only used it once so far but it went on nice and smoothly. Left it on for 20 minutes and when hair was rinsed and dried it felt distinctly softer.

Delivered in time in perfect condition. Amazing product as all Brad Mondo products are. So easy to use My hair is soft and shiny

It left my hair refreshed, soft and shiny. I left it on for three hours as I needed to remove warm tones from my hair. It turned out darker than the 7A expected, but the colour was rich and beautiful and it left my hair in better condition. Well worth it to do a colour correction with no damage. I only used a small portion and have enough for several future color refreshes. I can’t wait to do it again.
