Garnier Nutrisse Ultra Color Nourishing Hair Color Creme, R3 Light Intense Auburn (Packaging May Vary), Pack of 1

My hair has been just about every shade of red you can imagine (from orangey strawberry blonde to deep burgundy) and this is hands-down the best color I have tried. This distinctive shade has gotten me tons of complements from friends, strangers and even my stylist (plus the rest of the staff at the salon!). Unlike most red shades that fade to orange or brown, this particular series has amazing staying power. The only reason to do a touch-up is to cover my roots! A few things to note... (1) My hair is naturally a darker blonde/light brown and looks about a shade brighter than the model on the box when freshly dyed. From what I know of others experiences with this shade, it is best suited for those whose natural hair color is medium blonde to medium brown. Those with dark hair tend to find that the color is less noticeable (often only showing up clearly in sunlight), unless they first lighten their hair. (2) This dye tends to run, A LOT. During the coloring process, and for the next few showers, it is not uncommon for the water to run a pale red/pink. This is due to the extra pigmentation they give this dye to penetrate darker hair-colors and does not mean that your hair color is noticeably fading (NOTE: Using cooler water will minimize the amount of pigment washing out). I have been using this color for over a year now and have seen no visible change in the color as a result of this wash-out, but leaking color does tend to lead to issue 3... (3) Allowing wet hair to come into contact with fabric can lead to ruined towels, sheets or clothing. If you want to avoid having your bathroom look like a murder scene, make sure to designate a particular towel as a "hair towel" and be sure to bring it with you if you are travelling (you don't want to ruin friends'/family's/hotels' towels accidentally). Similarly, you will want to make sure to properly dry your hair during the first week or two before dressing in light colors or laying on light furniture/pillows. (NOTE: the dye does seem to come out for the most part in the wash, assuming you do not saturate the fabric, so hope is not lost if you accidentally stain something). I have been a Garnier Nutrisse devote for a long time, because their hair-dyes (and the conditioner they include in the kits) actually leave my hair feeling/looking healthier than they did before. As compared to their other similar hues, this dye has had spectacular staying power and seems to look the most "natural" despite its vibrant shade. Even professional stylists have asked where I've had my hair colored, because they cannot believe that it comes out of a box!

iI have never been so happy with a hair color! its VIBRANT! Red! I had already used clairol (not permanent dye ). so it had..some..red in it..but was such a yukky looking brown red.... but i wanted something that would POP.. well this did it (nutrisse R3) It was a little messy...but it didn't stain anything...what it did get on..i just sprayed a little of mr clean on let it sit for a few mins and washed off...it came right off leaving no stains at all.. A reviewer helped me out a bunch with her suggestion of her using a garbaage bag cutting a hole and put over her head..I didn't get any of the dye on my shoulders arms etc! Great idea! I washed my hair with John Frieda Radiant Red daily Shampoo (I also have the matching condtioner..but didnt need yet because i used the one that came in the box)..my hair is like satin! also suggestion from another reviewer ... i put John Frieda radiant red color envy..color sealer...(you can use everyday ) on my wet hair (You leave in) which also made my hair silky and i believe made the color be more vibrant!..People said it got on their clothes pillows etc the days afterwards but..I haven't had that problem at all..... I don't know about the fading yet..I will UPDATE in a month or so... I def recommend this color...Im really happy & so excited about this color!! I' had been a Blonde for 23 yrs...then went back to my real hair (golden Brown... not dyed.. i let the blonde grow out)for like 12 yrs...but then i lost my daughter and husband :O*( and after spending most of my life in bed grieving..one day woke and just wanted to see something diff so i went back to blonde..but while watching "How I Met Your Mother" Lily on there had this awesome red/dark brown hair...it was stunning...so i took the plundge..easily at first using the non permanent hair dye of Clairol Natural Instincts #745 dark auburn...and I liked the red on me..that faded in less than a week..so I picked this up (R3) and never been happier! I keep hearing how hard it is to keep red hair...dreading that a bit...but i feel its worth it! ( ps I first dyed it with Nutrisse Dark Brown... Then a week later I did the Clairol auburn/brown) Wish i knew how to upload pics to amazon..I would do so you could see how it came out :O/ Hope all reading this are as pleased as I with this product :O)

Let me start off saying that I do not have dark hair, so contrary to popular belief you can actually use this stuff regardless of your natural color. Naturally, I'm blonde, but I've lived the majority of the past ten years as a neon fairy (pink for 2 years, blue for 2 years,and literally everything in between) and during my senior year of high school (2012) I started a new school and was told that I HAD TO HAVE A NATURAL COLOR. So my mother forced me to dye my beautiful sugar plum fairy hair brown, and I really never felt like that captured my spirit. When I was 18, I decided to pick a lovely red shade and hope for the best. Here I am, three years later, and I genuinely don't ever see myself using another hair color. This shade is FLAWLESS. It's the most captivating shade of deep red, it doesn't get brassy, it doesn't fade to brown (and believe me, I don't keep up with it as often as I should.) This color is spunky, lively, bright, and very, very pretty. It's sophisticated and goes with all skin tones too!

Positive-- love the color Negative -- like all reds they tend to fade so quickly 😭..you just have to know how to maintain it.. Like not showering everyday,using cold water when you do

I am sticking to this brand from now on. I just did my hair a couple days ago and I love the result! My hair is a medium-dark brown, and this product did the job!

I wouldn't know what this item was like because it leaked when I opened the box. really disappointed.

i had dark brown natural hair with a bit of faded blonde highlights and this was my first time using box dye and i loved the result! it also left my hair feeling soft! 10/10 recommended :) ❤️

Bonjour Alors la coloration donne une couleur beaucoup plus foncé, il faut peut être une décoloration au préalable lorsque l on a les cheveux bruns. ..
