Leaves your hair feeling healthy

a year ago
I quite enjoyed this hair colour product. It was very easy to apply, the after care felt nourishing and smelled divine. I'd say the colour turned out slightly darker than expected (possibly due to my hair type as it absorbs very quickly) but after 2 washes it lightened a bit to a point where I now LOVEEE the colour and look forward to purchasing and using again. I was very impressed with this product and would recommend to those opting for a colour refresh or wanting to try a DIY hair product with a salon quality without the salon costs.

Yes, I recommend this product.

I have around 60% grey hair, and this colour didn’t achieve full coverage, especially at my temples and parting. While the cruelty-free aspect is fantastic, the colour wasn’t ideal for my grey levels. It was easy to prepare and had enough product for my long, thin hair—though thicker hair might need two boxes. Despite visible greys close to the roots, Garnier Good provided 100% coverage elsewhere. It’s ammonia-free, which is a huge plus, and the conditioner left my hair silky and fragrant. I managed three applications, making it a valuable addition to the Garnier to line up.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Permanent Hair Colour that lasts!

This is my first time trying out the Garnier Good Permanent Hair Colouring treatment. I have been coloring my hair for 10+ years and have tried many hair coloring treatments during that time - this one truly stands out among them! I love the fact that I can use the container to mix up the color treatment - this makes the process easy and mess-free. The color is easy to apply, has no unpleasant odor, and washes out well. I highly recommend it!

Box dye that's eco friendly

Jo67

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Being someone who uses box dyes all the time and for many year's this dye was very different, the advantages are less plastic, easy mixing the opening of the developer and colourant, was much easier, at first i didn't think there was enough mixture but after applying the colour there was ample for shoulder lenght hair, it does smell ok the conditioner has a lovely smell and makes your hair feel amazing , all that said i do miss the mixing bottle as it was easy to get straight to the roots and the mixture isnt as thick as others so my hair did tend to keep falling , the colour has turned out nice and covered my greys well

Yes, I recommend this product.

Eco friendly, good smelling hair dye

Tracie80
3 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very easy to use, it’s like a thick hair mask. Worried at first it would be difficult to get into all my hair but it was really easy. I sectioned my hair started at the bottom and plenty in the tub for my shoulder length hair. I didn’t need to sit still and keep it covered, no drips or anything it’s perfect to carry on with my daily jobs. Washed out easily too. My hair is a lovely dark brown, really shiny and feels strong and soft. It’s just like I have used a nourishing hair mask. The smell is really good too which never happens with a hair dye. The packaging is very eco friendly too which is a bonus.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Not Too Impressed.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Packaging is like a Ben and Jerry's Ice cream tub. Once i emptied out all the products i read the instructions which were easy to understand and started to mix the dye in the tub. This i was not to keen on as i do like using a bottle to mix, but i done as instructed. Now applying to your hair was so awkward, having to use your hand or the spatula, i was getting the cream everywhere, then trying to apply it to your roots was just not good at all, this was not for, as i say i prefer using a Bottle its far easier, no mess and you get an even distribution. Only plus was the colour, this was a really good match to my hair and it did leave my hair looking glossy and shiny and healthy.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Better then others

a year ago
I recently tried a this permanent hair dye, and I must say, it exceeded all expectations! The color payoff is incredibly vibrant and true to what is shown on the box, providing full coverage, even over my stubborn greys. One of the best aspects is how long-lasting it is—weeks later, my hair still looks freshly dyed with no fading. The formula was easy to apply and didn't drip, making the process mess-free. The dye was also gentle on my hair, leaving it soft, shiny, and healthy-looking post-treatment, thanks to the nourishing ingredients included. I also appreciated the lack of strong chemical smells that are common with other dyes. Whether you’re looking for a bold transformation or subtle touch-up, this permanent dye offers salon-quality results at home. It's a game-changer for anyone wanting vibrant, long-lasting color with minimal effort.

Yes, I recommend this product.
