Clairol Professional Beautiful Collection Advanced Gray Solutions, Semi-Permanent Hair Color with Gray Coverage for All Hair Textures | Packaging May Vary

I bought this hair dye for my mom to cover her gray hairs, and she absolutely loves it! The color is vibrant, long-lasting, and covers the grays really well. It dyes the hair evenly, and her hair stays soft and healthy-looking after each use. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone looking for great coverage and rich color without damaging their hair.

Great Gray coverage...beautiful coppery shade. A bit drying...mix a half teaspoon of oil in future applications fir more condition. Will update in a couple weeks to see how color stays! Very happy with results!

First two photos are before (absolutely no color treatment) and the second two are after day after i used it in the shower. I shampooed my hair as normal then towel dried, then got out of the shower and used the treatment in about two or three layers and i used about half the bottle before everything was thoroughly saturated.Since i havent washed once again, i will add a photo of the grey coverage after first wash.But overall i am happy with the amount of grey coverage and this product does seem to do what it says. I may choose another color next time because i don't care for the greenish tint, which is why i gave it four stars. But overall i love the price and effectiveness.I love natural hair but i also hate that i have a full head of grey at 25. So i think this is great for people that like minimal treatment.

I bought the Clairol Professional Beautiful Collection in the color 2A Rich Dark Brown for my mom. It Enhances natural color and refreshes color-treated hair, with intense gray coverage for up to 50% gray hair. She is a testimony it really works. Suitable for all hair types and ideal for curly and coily hair. Upgrade your look and have expanded the Clairol Professional Beautiful Collection shade palette to help you obtain all your color needs, from gray coverage to a natural-looking or intense and vibrant color result.

This hair color is marketed as a semi-permanent option with no developer/peroxide, but it is not the same as a color-depositing shampoo and is nowhere near as gentle. While it's true you don't have to add a developer, whatever the "oxidation" process is which is loosely described on the label, it smells exactly like developer when it's on your head (typical box color fumes), and you can expect the same results as you might get from a demi-permanent color like Natural Instincts. Depending on how healthy/damaged your hair is to begin with, and how long you leave the product on, you will be altering hair texture, and be prepared to have this color for a long while. It does NOT wash out easily/quickly, or at all. The limited range of tones available combined with strong effects means you are taking a huge risk. There are some great results in the photos from other reviewers, and I'm glad that for some people who know what they're doing/get lucky, it worked out. But be very careful, and if you do try it don't overdo it on the application time. I was excited to try it based on those results pics, but now I am stuck with a tone I don't want and it's not washing out at all, so I'm back on the hellish journey of trying to correct bad home color. There's a reason it's so inexpensive.

I am reviewing Professional Clairol Advanced Gray Hair Solutions, after I first tried the moisturizing version with zero results (it is really designed for non-gray). I am 35-40% silver with fine virgin hair. As a former Cosmetologist, I have become highly sensitive to chemicals from years of exposure working in them. I typically cannot color my hair at all without some sort of negative reaction. I was a long time fan of Clairol's gentle Loving Care line before it was ultimately discontinued. I had been able to use it successfully for years without issue. If you want the short version, I am thrilled to report this product appears to be a fairly close comparable spinoff of Loving Care. Free of ammonia, peroxide, and other harsh chemicals and tints gray successfully. Just stop reading right here and get it!👍I first tried the Toasted Hazelnut, the lightest color in this line. The goal being three-dimensional high and lowlights (I used a highlighting cap to achieve this). My existing natural dark, leaving some of my natural silver, and applying the toasted hazelnut color to coat the silver areas of choice. I washed my hair with a clarifying shampoo, so the color would have the best possible chance to coat the hair shaft. I allowed the color to stay on a full 45 minutes, per other reviews. Also, remember my hair was completely resistant to the other color. I wanted it to work! Since this product uses O2 technology, allow air to reach your hair, rather than using the typical plastic cap. The Advanced Gray Solutions version is much thicker. The color is more condensed and resulted in a successful tinting of color on my grays. Expect tint. I also think this formula smells much more pleasant than the mousturizing version. Toasted Hazelnut for me is a pale caramel (see first photo). I will continue to play with other colors in this line. Darker colors may coat and hold somewhat better. (UPDATE!!) Since my original review, I started mixing Espresso Bean and Burgundy Brown. It is bomb! I absolutely love it (see second photo)! It's rich and natural and covers quite well. This has become my favorite combination, by far 😍Overall, I am so happy to say the advanced gray version does a great job. I have zero issues using the product. I do not experience the usual dizziness, headache, irritated scalp, or throat that I normally experience with color. Hooray!! An option for very sensitive people. The scent is pleasant in my opinion (for color) and quite tolerable to my very sensitive nose and breathing. It rinses off of skin quite easily. Easy to apply using a standard plastic bowl, applicator brush, and latex gloves. No staining, or mess (just use an old towel). Product rinses from my hair quite easily (use cool water to retain color longer) with no offensive fragrance. My husband loves the light scent it initially leaves behind. I found that quite unusual and pleasant. I do wish the results lasted longer. I always notice a loss of color from one shampoo. I typically shampoo once/twice a week. It lasts through 4-5 shampoos total for me, still leaving a very light tint by that time. Therefore, I reapply every couple, to 3 weeks. This has truly been a game changer for me. An excellent hair color product for sensitive people in my honest and professional opinion 😊 Yes!!Thanks so very much, Clairol. Please don't stop making this one!!

This product performs as stated. My hesitation stems from the fact it does not come in a box. The cap is not sealed. All you have to do is twist the top and it’s open. There are no gloves that come with it to protect your hands from the dye. When you peel back the label to view the instructions, they are not in English. Still, I used it and liked it enough to purchase it again.

This was so easy, i grabbed a pair of gloves a towel and a comb and I was ready. Application is a no brainer, just twist off the cap, I was also able to use tip of dye bottle to part my hair. Super easy & super affordable
