Fifty millilitres is a tube rather than a kit, which suits root touch-ups and anyone who has done this often enough to know exactly what they need. 4.0 is a true mid brown with nothing warm or ashy pulling it off centre.

It is permanent, so grey goes completely rather than being softened, and the pigment holds its depth through washing instead of dropping warm after a fortnight. The shade staying where it landed is the part that decides whether home colour looks home-done.

Reach for it to cover grey, put a natural brown back after a colour has faded, or take a lighter base down a level or two.

One thing worth saying about any permanent dye. Do the skin allergy test before every application, whatever the brand and however many times you have used it before. It is the one shortcut nobody should take. 50ml (1.69 oz).

Application tips

Run the patch test ahead of time, every single time, however familiar the brand is.

Then mix at the ratio given on the pack and start at the roots, leaving those the longest, since new growth takes colour more slowly than the lengths. Pull the mix through the ends for the last few minutes only. Rinse until the water runs clear and skip shampoo that day.

Results

Grey is covered rather than softened, so the coverage is solid instead of translucent at the temples.

The shade lands as a neutral mid brown with no red or ash pulling through, and it stays that way for weeks rather than turning warm after a few washes. Hair keeps a decent gloss afterwards, which permanent colour does not always leave behind.
