A single shade, done properly. This is permanent black for anyone who wants depth rather than a flat, matte block of colour, and it covers grey completely instead of leaving lighter strands showing through.

Argan oil and hydrolysed wheat protein are in the mix, which is what stops a deep black looking dull. The protein works on the strand itself and the oil handles the surface, so the finish reads glossy. Being permanent, the colour resists fading and holds its depth through washes rather than shifting brown over a few weeks.

  • Full coverage on grey rather than a partial stain
  • Deep black with shine instead of a flat finish
  • Conditioning ingredients worked into the colour
  • Small 50ml size, sensible for roots and touch-ups

Follow the patch test instructions on the pack before every application, not only the first one. 50ml / 1.69 oz.

Application tips

Section into four before you open anything, and clip three out of the way. Apply with a tint brush along each part, working from the back of the head forwards, since the back takes longest to develop and is hardest to reach in a mirror.

Comb the colour through the ends only in the last few minutes. Rinse until the water is clear, then a conditioning rinse. Skin test two days ahead.

Results

Grey disappears rather than showing through as a lighter thread, and the tone reads as a true black in daylight instead of the blue cast cheap dyes leave. Hair does not feel stripped once it is rinsed.

Fifty millilitres is a small kit, better suited to a hairline and parting refresh than a whole head of long hair. The tone stays put over repeated washes instead of drifting warm.
