Garnier Hair Color Nutrisse Ultra Color Nourishing Creme, IN1 Dark Intense Indigo (Midnight Iris) Blue Permanent Hair Dye, 1 Count (Packaging May Vary)

I am so impressed with this hair dye! The color came out rich, vibrant, and exactly as shown on the box. It gave me full coverage (even over some stubborn grays) and left my hair feeling soft, shiny, and healthy no dryness or damage like I’ve experienced with other brands. The formula didn’t have a strong chemical smell, and the application was super easy. It even came with a great conditioner that made my hair feel like I just walked out of a salon. It’s been a few weeks and the color is still holding up beautifully with minimal fading.

I felt guilty for not giving it ten stars. I have been using this monthly for three consecutive years. I like it for so many reasons: 1) My hair has never been this beautiful. Well, my hair is Asian straight black type. It makes my hair so soft and shiny. It’s shiny, but I did not expect this condition in my 50s. 2) The blue hue stands out in the sun. 3) I did not feel that the color fade at all. I used it to cover my silver hair. I could only observe the new hair growth, but the white part that were dyed in the past was still as black. The only complaint I would have is that the quantity was reduced. Nowaday, I can use one set for only a root touchup. However since it was never fade, only root touchup is enough for me.

Ok, due to all the scary reviews, I was very nervous diving headlong into this. I did purchase because ultimately I didn’t mind too much if all I got was black hair? I last colored my hair in March of 2020 before the craziness. It’s now Halloween and I’m not loving the red tones that came from my last chocolate coloring from another brand. I had five inches or more of new growth and the rest had a red tone from the previous box dye I did in March. The reviews all told horror stories, but I’m glad I tried it anyways. My natural hair is I guess a dark blonde or light brunette? I had three or four day old hair, and I’m oily and fine, make sure your hair is always unwashed and free of products before coloring. I followed the directions in box and was careful with my surroundings as not to stain my bathroom, as I’ve done before with dark dyes. My hair is a beautiful shade of dark blue, it’s no longer red toned! There is a blackness to it, but I see the blue wonderfully. Hoping I can keep it this color. I’m going to continue to use this shade as long as possible. If you have naturally brown hair, like me, I don’t see why this won’t work for you, plus I had my hair previously colored as it says not to, but it worked perfectly with my hair anyways. I did make sure to rinse my hair very well afterwards, then used the mask included. Afterward I used a leave in conditioner just to be safe and to protect the color even more!!

I used a semi permanent dye before this, and it barely did anything and lasted only 2 washes. But this dye, I JUST LOVE IT. My hair is dark blond naturally, so it's a lot harder for me to find great dyes for it. I was looking for a dark blue dye but I dreamed of having black hair. The dye came out as really dark and it's still notice able that it's a blue tint, but I literally LOVE the color so much it's perfect. I was scared of using black hair dye because it was never going to come out, but this is blackish blue on dark blond. GOING TO USE AGAIN. I can't stop looking at myself in the mirror because the color is perfect for me. I recommend using GARNIER if you have darker hair. BETTER RESULTS THAN ON THE BOX. IT'S EXTREMELY VIBRANT.
