Susie-34668's Full Review: Procter & Gamble Clairol Nice N Easy Hair Color, L...
I tried using Marc Anthony Root Touch-Up for my dark roots but it didn't work for me. So next time I checked all the boxes, and decided to try Clairol Nice 'N Easy ultra light number 87 natural blonde. Unfortunately it was too light for me so I went with 102, natural light ash blonde.
Looking at the box it states that it's color-blend technology that expert blend of 3 tones for natural color with highlights. Brown to blonde in just one step. It is also a permanent color. At the side of the box it has 3 current hair colors, and then the results you will get with number 102. I figured with all this information I couldn't go wrong.
In the box are the gloves to protect your hands, the color blend activator, the color blend formula, and the color seal conditioning gloss.
To get started you need to put the gloves on, pull off the top seal on the color-blend activator. then unscrew the applicator bottle cap. Open the color-blend formula bottle and pour all the contents into the applicator bottle. Put the applicator bottle cap on. Place your gloved finger over the top of the applicator and shake well so that it mixes together. You must apply the color immediately to your hair. I did this in my bathroom, with old towels covering the basin, and floor. I also put a small towel around my shoulders.
I really wanted the sides of my hair, the underneath of the back of my hair, and the gray area to color the most. Therefore I applied my color to these areas first. The bottle was almost full so there was plenty of liquid to color my hair. I made sure I got to the roots and thoroughly covered the areas that were really dark. I then applied the hair color to the rest of my head.
I still had some hair color left in the bottle so I disposed of it straight away. It states that you keep the color on for 25 minutes or up to 45 minutes if you have stubborn gray hair, or you want a lighter shade of blonde. I decided to go for 35 minutes. The color ran down my forehead and around the back of my neck, so I cleaned it off with Kleenex tissues, before it left color on my skin.
As soon as the time was up I went into the shower and lathered my hair by adding warm water to it. It felt really soft. I then rinsed my hair. After doing this I used some of the tube of ColorSeal conditioning gloss and rubbed that into my hair. It had already felt soft and smooth and this made it feel like baby hair. I left it on for the recommended 2 minutes and then rinsed my hair clean. I still had the majority of the cream left in the tube, and this is to be used for future conditioning, on a weekly basis.
I then wrapped the towel around my head to take some of the water out of my hair. I applied my usual gel to my hair, combed it, and then blow-dried it. The color looked ash blonde, light blonde, and even a mid blonde. My hair has always been highlighted, or several colors because of the gray areas, so I really liked the combination. When I curled the back of my hair, and put it in a French pleat, the brown had disappeared. I was delighted with the outcome.
The conditioner lasted me 9 weeks instead of the 6 weeks they suggested. My roots started showing a couple of weeks ago, so I purchased another box of Clairol Nice n' Easy color 102.
I did exactly the same as the first application 12 weeks ago, and my hair looks really great. I love the 'Color blend technology of the expert blend of 3 tones for natural color with highlights'. My hair has always been a variety of colors all at once, and with one product my hair stays the same. The great thing is that it is a permanent color and covers gray 100%.
This is the only product I will purchase from now on, and I won't have to see a hairdresser ever again.
