Schwarzkopf Simply Color Hair Color 8.16 Medium Ash Blonde, 1 Application - Permanent Hair Dye for Healthy Looking Hair without Ammonia or Silicone, Dermatologist Tested, No PPD & PTD

The stuff is great it does the coloring that I want. I'm very white haired on the front and a little darker on the back so what I do is I put it on the front where the white is for a half an hour and then I finish it through the back for about 15 minutes. I'm using the blonde over gray because I am a blonde with gray hair. Even the younger girls that I know come up to being say wow your hair looks so cool is it natural? Because they know it's not but it looks so natural they can't help but ask. I feel like this doesn't have a lot of nasty stuff in it like some of the other stuff has. And I don't have to do it like every 4 to 6 weeks for some reason it just Blends in so well that I can literally go a couple of months actually the last time I went 4 months before I felt like I needed to redo it. I hope this company never stops making this product it's the best I've ever used.

I had light blond dyed highlights throughout long blonde hair with dirty blonde roots. I've colored my hair for years and years, last few years was professional blonde highlights. I applied to roots for 20 min, worked through the ends over 5 min, left it on for another 10. Total processing time was 40 min with application time per the instructions. My whole head of hair turned very honey-light brown. This dye colored my blonde hair much darker. Another lady's review (she has kind of short hair) showed pictures of this happening to her, I thought perhaps there was a user error or just an odd reaction to her natural color. Same thing happened to mine, take a look at her pics. I would stay away from this product if you want actual blonde hair. Definitely not "Light Blonde."

I did some research on the less toxic hair color and this brand came up (still toxic but not as bad as other at home colors and professional color). So, I brought this to my stylist and we did a test to see if it would cover my grey and stand up. I have some tough greys and was very surprised at how well it performed. We have decided to just do heavy highlights in the future, but, if I was going to move forward with an all over color, I would use this product. Note: I have been coloring my hair since 1990 and have had greys since I was 19 years old, this did better than most in covering grey. Natural hair is a mousy brown and grey patches at front temples. Good luck!

The color tube was the hardest hair color tube I have ever tried to squeeze. It barely came out into the developer bottle and it started to bust out of the sides of the tube so I had to cut the tube at the bottom and squeeze it into a bowl. I then poured the developer in the bowl and mixed it that way. There was very little product. Not enough for a full head of hair unless you have very thin short hair. I have very thick full hair that is about two to three inches past my shoulders so I was only able to cover most of the top part of my hair and nothing underneath. I have naturally white roots with dyed beige blond hair. My top white roots came out dark blonde. My dyed color came out light golden brown. The color is nice. The product is moderately toxic. The conditioner made my hair soft and silky feeling. If I were to use it again I would probably need two to three boxes for one application.

Ok... I did my research.. .and lots of it. I am allergic to hair color. As I got older, the more sensitive the back of my neck became. The last time I went to my hairdresser for a color, I was sick for 2 weeks! Never again!!So I did my research. Many people have reviewed this hair color that have allergies. Some reviews were better than others. I have hair past my shoulders... so I purchased two boxes just to be safe that I would have enough. One bottle ended up being enough.First thing I learned from other reviews, this goes on darker than expected! I have chestnut brown hair... I purchased the Medium Blonde, it ended up being the exact color of my hair. The instructions are pretty simple. It said to keep on hair 30 minutes. With that said, I have gray roots, and I hate them. Those pesky grays are about 3 inches long because I have PTSD from my hairdresser almost putting me in the hospital.When the color was in my hair, the top of my head tingled... that was the extent of any reaction I had. My eczema on the back of my neck and hair line did not flare at all.... so for any of you with those allergies... this is for sure a color to try. I kept it in 30 minutes like I said and they give a conditioner to put in after you rinse it out.The bad news is I have washed my hair twice since coloring and the grays on top are back already :( In other reviews I noticed that people say it does not last long, like 8 washes... so I was hoping to make it that long. Being this color gave me no reaction... I am giving it another try in about a month. This time I may keep on my top roots longer to see if that works..... I may try to buy a shade darker as well.It's worth a try for those who have allergies or just don't want those horrible chemicals soaking in your brain.Update 2/2025I keep the color on my grays longer, about 45-50 mins and it lasts longer!! very mild on the scalp!

This is the same brand my salon guy uses for a fraction of the price! I like the color. It’s subtle. And it’s plant based so it’s gentle on my hair. I’ve used a lot of different colors at the salon and at home. This is a keeper.

I've ordered this brand 6 times. I found a light blonde that's very close to my natural color so when it grows out it isn't really noticeable.Actually my hair dresser recommended this brand to me.I used OOOPS to strip the color out and my hair is now a bleach blonde and I can't stand it so I decided to order this again bc I can live with this color.My hair is soft after applying this color.

Head started to tingle ran to rinse out. Hair broke off at roots. Will have to grow hair that broke off and is a frizzy mess because I was trying to use a SAFE color. I'm trying Roux Porosity Control that a beautician used for me when I permed my own hair in high school. Sold on Amazon and wonderful for your hair. That's what I do recommend.
