Zoe Blake –
I’ve used 8N several times now and it covers gray hair completely without looking unnatural. The color is natural-looking and the shine is noticeably better than before. Easy to apply and stays vibrant for weeks.
Theresa Lawrence –
Great for those with mixed hair tones. The 8N shade blends well with my natural hair color and covers gray effectively. The shine is impressive and the formula doesn’t feel heavy on the hair.
Irene Hemmings –
The coverage is excellent, especially on the roots. It’s a bit more intense than I expected, but I like the natural finish. The shine is noticeable after just one application.

I was hesitant about natural shades, but 8N delivers a realistic, soft look. It covers gray thoroughly and doesn’t look too artificial. The hair feels healthier after use.

Works well for partial gray coverage. The color is balanced and doesn’t shift over time. A little more coverage than I needed, but still very natural.
