Best part is the conditioner!
7 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have never used Nutrisse before as I normally use Olia due to no ammonia. I have really sensitive skin and only certain hair dyes work for me. I tried nutrisse for the first time and I was blown away. It smells amazing and the colour coverage is really good. The colour came out vibrant and also claims to be good for grey hair coverage. The best part is the conditioner, the conditioner that has amazing oils in it is comparable to high end conditioners I normally use. Definitely worth giving a go, so easy to use and gives a healthy finish for your hair like it was salon treated.
Yes, I recommend this product.

The worst product
a year ago
Absolute rubbish as it goes into lumps within 10 seconds when mixed. No way can it come out of the tube evenly. The first part out is mainly liquid with no colour. Result no colour change. 5 seconds later after mixing nothing comes out. The old formula was perfect. Vegan is rubbish. Very disappointing. I did ring a few months ago and was offered another Garnier product which did exactly the same. I think the 8 week promise of colour is a bit far fetched.

Why change a great dye??
2 years ago
I have used 'Darkest Brown' for years and years and it has always been fantastic. However the move being undertaken to change the product from Creme to Ultra Creme has brought with it a decline in the product quality and compete change of colour.
When applied, the colour looks dark green and when washed and dried, the rich dark brown/black has orange tones and any grey coverage also stands out due to the orange colour instead of brown. The only noticeable change in packaging is that it is now 'Ultra' and vegan friendly. It appears moving to a vegan friendly formula and amending the source of some ingredients has had an adverse effect on the overall product. Really disappointing and now unfortunately I will have to look for a new brand
No, I do not recommend this product.

Beautifal Colour

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chop and change between blonde and brown I've always used garnier dyes this one in particular is a stunning colour and really good coverage I would say if you have long or thick hair get two bottles for maximum coverage, smells great for a dye product, left on for the reccomend time and the conditioner it came with made my hair really soft and smooth and got the dye out usually with other dyes I find your washing it out for ages but this one doesn't take much longer than an normal hair wash. Will defienalty use again, great trustee product.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Natural colour
7 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I swap between darkest, and dark brown depending on my mood. If you leave this on too long it does go black/brown for the first few days before it settles down. When used correctly its a lovely natural dark brown. The dye is the kindest to my hair that I've ever used, keeping it well conditioned rather than making it dry and brittle. The smell isn't too offensive either. It's good at covering my first few greys, and doesn't fade out.
Definitely the only hair dye I will use now, and I've tried many!
Yes, I recommend this product.

Great colour
8 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s really important to do a patch test. I did one to reassure myself. This would be the first time I am trying out to colour my hair so I was a bit anxious of how it’ll turn out to be. I chose my natural hair colour. It’s easy to follow the instructions and apply on. My hair colour was evenly distributed throughout my hair. It left my hair nice and shiny. This looked like how my normal hair colour looks and and on the plus side covered a few gray hairs that I had.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Great colour
7 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This colour is a perfect match for my hair colour. I have black hair, I don’t like using black colour dye as the colour is too black for my hair and makes it look unnatural. This dye gave my hair a rich glossy feel.
Easy to apply and use. Lovely fragrance. This gave my grey hairs a good coverage which I’m
pleased about. I would buy this colour and brand again. Good amount of conditioner provided in the bottle. Up to about 3 uses depending on hair length.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Good product!
8 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am weary about using permanent hair dyes as the leave my hair feeling like straw and then it breaks easily. However the Garnier dye seems to be different, although my hair is slightly dryer then usual it's no where near as bad as when I've coloured my hair previously and my hair has got back to its texture quickly. It seems to have covered my greys, although there are a few strands remaining but that could be due to how I've applied it.

Amazing Hair Dye
7 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have to be honest I don’t normally use at home hair dyes and prefer to have my hair done at a salon, but due to my hairdresser being busy I was unable to get an appointment and desperately needed my hair doing so I decided to do it myself. I was really impressed with the hair colour, it was easy to apply and looked almost as good as when I go to the salon. I’m quiet pleased with the results and the colour seems to be long lasting also.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Fantastic hair colour
8 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using all different at home hair dyes for years and not one has compared to this product! Color is rich looking and makes my hair feel great. Slightly dark at first but just wash a couple times and the color turns to a fantastic chocolate brown that is shiny and really rich. It is easy to use and no drips or mess... everything you need comes in the box even disposable gloves... Absolutely recommend this product!
Yes, I recommend this product.

Why change the colour!
2 years ago
I have been using this dye in number 3 darkest brown for around 14 years and have had no issues with the colour. The ‘new’ boxes introduced over the last couple of months have been awful the colour is orange & nothing like the almost black colour it has always been. So disappointed as I order through a subscription and have several boxes of dye that is useless!
No, I do not recommend this product.

Exceptional product
7 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have always loved Garnier hair dye but I love how the products are getting reinvented and thinking about health and environment. The hair dye doesn’t smell of ammonia, just lovely and pleasant scent instead. The extra oils and added conditioning formula leaves the hair with vibrant colour and healthy shine. The colour lasts and hair feels and looks healthy.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Lovely deep brown
8 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my go to hair dye. I use it all the time because it's easy to use and you get great results. It covers all greys and is a natural deep brown. The steps are really easy to follow and application is easy. It smells nice and the conditioner you apply after is really nourishing. The colour lasts a long time. My hair feels soft for weeks after too.
Yes, I recommend this product.

My Go To Colour
7 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Another fantastic product by Garnier and by far my favourite shade I have used to date. My hair is fully covered with a natural glossy colour. Hair is so shiny and everyone asks if it’s my own natural colour and if not which salon I go to for my colour. Definitely a product I will continue to use for the foreseeable
Yes, I recommend this product.

Gorgeous colour, shiny and lovely coverage
7 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was sent this product to try and review and I'm really impressed. It didnt hurt my scalp, or leave a horrible smell and was thick and didn't splash everywhere and make a mess. Once the development time was up and I washed it off, I could already see the intense shine and great colour. It looks lovely..
Yes, I recommend this product.

This is an excellent hair dye
7 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My hair is naturally very dark and when I have dyed it in the past I have found it hard to find something that changes my hair colour . In the past I have tried many different dyes and when I found Garnier Nutrisse ,I was apprehensive at best . There are different instructions for people who are either colouring their hair for the first time or someone whose just dying the roots. The developer Creme and colour Creme are very easy to mix and the first thing that I noticed was the fragrance of the hair dye . It did not smell strongly of ammonia as I thought it would which immediately made me feel at ease . The creme flows very easily. The instructions say to leave the hair dye on for between 25-35 mins depending on how resistant or stubborn your hair is . Knowing my hair I left it on for 35 mins and wow ! As usual it took at least three washes to get out of my hair and once dried the colour was gorgeous! I finally found something that dyes my stubborn hair and leaves it feeling nourished.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Lovely Natural Shade
7 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A lovely shade of dark brown, the result was very natural, not too black, not too orange. It didn't stain my skin either. It was very easy to use. The only thing I didn't like was the ammonia smell. However, I would use this again, as the shade is lovely and dark but still natural looking.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Better than the rest

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love Garnier hair dyes! I made the mistake of buying a Clairol one in this same dark brown shade, and after two washes, my roots were revealing my bleached blonde blunder!
The Garnier nutrias range is a life saver. Managed to tone the colour and keep the pesky blonde streaks at bay.
Yes, I recommend this product.
