Belle Color is the quieter end of the Garnier range, made for people who want their own colour back rather than a new one. Shade 5 is a light brown, and it goes on looking like hair that happens to have no grey in it rather than hair that has obviously been dyed.

Jojoba oil and wheat germ oil are in the formula and they are why the hair comes out soft instead of coarse. Colour penetration is deep enough that the shade stays true through repeated washing rather than fading down into a lighter, flatter version of itself.

  • Complete grey coverage from root to tip
  • Multi-dimensional finish that works with your natural tone
  • Jojoba oil and wheat germ oil condition through the process
  • Permanent at-home kit

A sensible pick if the aim is maintenance rather than reinvention.

Application tips

Run the allergy alert test in advance, every time, even if you have used this shade before. Mix the colour with the developer in the bottle, shake it, then start at the roots where grey sits hardest and comb the rest down through the lengths. Gloves on for the whole application. Time it by the clock rather than by eye, rinse until the water runs clear, then use whatever after-colour treatment comes in the kit.

Results

Grey goes from silver to a light brown that matches the rest, without the flat block colour that gives away a box dye. Regrowth is the only thing that eventually gives the game away. Hair feels conditioned rather than rough when you rinse it off, and the tone holds through wash after wash instead of drifting warm or washing out pale.

Composition

Jojoba Oil
Cushions the strand while the colour develops so hair stays supple
Wheat Germ Oil
Conditions as it works, leaving the finish smooth rather than rough
