Just tweaked from the first time to cover gray. Covered all the gray this time (and I'm more experienced.) Timing is longer...follow the instructions! Pros: perfection! Cons: for us older people, larger print for instructions would be ideal, then glasses do not need to come on and off. I love this product plus all the help available!
As many others,
The COVID lock down produces very sad grey on red on brown look for me. The color test was excellent, shipment timely and instructions easy to follow. I had my daughter apply it and we had no problems. Great grey coverage and beautiful shine
I like the colour a lot, very nice. My only complaint would be that less than two weeks after I coloured some of my greys are popping through, it's not a huge deal but will try to make sure I apply it so that I cover all of my hair really well next time.
My color was damn near a perfect match to the top and front of my hair. So, I bet your wondering why I only gave it a 4 then. I’m my vast experience of colorings over the years, I know that color fades slightly. And, given that, my root match on the underside layers is a touch lighter than existing color. Alas....I no longer have my silver lining and passerby’s probably wouldn’t notice what I do! I’m hoping the next will be even better! Don’t let the Quarantine stop you from feeling beautiful, give it a try!
The color was a great match, which should be the most important thing. But, I was more relieved that the instructions were so easy to read. Went smoothly, looks great.
While very, very "afraid" to do my own color, I've now completed my first order.
I was very pleased with the customer service and the speed of answering several of my questions (and I have a new one as of today.)
Thoughts: I am going to try using the bottle method rather than the brush. It's sooo sloppy and I ended up with color on my counter top and wall (enough so that I need to repaint a spot.)
The color bled through my gloves and my right hand and nails were a mess. So guess I'll double up on two pairs of gloves.
I have very hard impenetrable roots and it's so-so on them. I've had to use my Loreal spray on color at the crown and at my part. Next time, I'll hit those areas double hard.
But all in all...it's a good product and I'm going to reorder.
The color and coverage of the product is very good. I didn’t care for the shampoo and conditioner that came with the product as my hair seemed very dry after using it after coloring. I would continue using hair color.
This was my first time using eSalon. The application process was similar to other home-dye hair kits I have used in the past. However, eSalon included an additional step after colouring and before rinsing off, which the instructions stressed should not be skipped. I had to fill the empty tint bottle with water, shake it up and then apply all over my head and massage in for 2-3 minutes. I imagine that this is to 'loosen' the tint and make it easier to rinse out, as well as making sure it had been applied evenly. This was an incredibly messy process. My daughter was helping me, so I hung my head over the bath while she applied it and massaged it in. It went everywhere; I don't think I would have managed this on my own without making an awful mess. Also, the formulation of the tint had a very strong ammonia smell. My daughter said it made her eyes sting when applying it. Although my hair has been thoroughly rinsed and washed, there is still a faint ammonia whiff some hours later.
Having said all that, the colour is spot on. My hair feels soft and looks shiny. All greys are banished (for now!) I am not sure if I would order this product again at the full price. I have had equally good results from other off-the-shelf kits, many of which were not so malodorous and were easier to apply.
While I'm trying to adjust to this brighter color of red; my colleagues seem to like it. I must have missed some areas so the older color looks like highlights which is pretty cool. I expected a bit browner red - it's hard to try and match a color especially since this is not my field of excellence, but I think I did okay!!
I have all of my life wanted to be a redhead. I was the kid that watched The Little Mermaid many times. I LOVED her hair. Growing up my hair was light blonde which settled into a unflattering dark ashy blonde tone by adulthood.
It did nothing for my complexion. I was told by multiple hair colorists in my area achieving red hair on my hair wasn't possible. ESalon colorist Tamara proved them wrong , listened to what type of red I wanted, & formulated a red that would look natural yet vibrant with my skin tone.
Such a lovely touch to have it tailer made, including the dye remover as I’m a little messy at applying.
My only issue was the colour I picked was a shade too light but that was my error totally.
I used my color at home yesterday and it was fast and easy. I feel like leaving it on for 35 min may have been too long as the color is darker than I expected it to be and darker than I wanted it. Not enough red/gold and too much brown.
I think that you should print instructions larger type as those of us who need to cover our grey also may need reading glasses! Also, better instructions on how to do the back of your own head would be helpful
The process was easy enough. Difficult to see the back of my head and do what was needed.
I like my new color. But it is more red briwn than ash brown. It's a nice red for me. . .I think. Now my brows really stand out. Not in a good way. Dont seem to go with my hair. Any ideas suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you,.Marie
Haven't used the cammo mist yet
Covered all the gray and gave the depth of color I was looking for. I did choose a medium brown, and do wish I would have gone a little lighter. Overall- I love the product and will reorder.
The color was great! I loved the feel of my hair after. The coverage of gray was fantastic. I would have given it 5 stars if I had received the brush that it said I would get with this order. I had to buy a paint brush and cut it down. It worked but not the greatest. I wish they would include the brush!
One thing I would like info on is the color isn’t as dark on my roots compared to rest of my hair. I left color on for 30 mins. Used leftover for all over color in shower. First time user so just wondering if I need to leave in longer next time.
I really liked the color I chose but I'm about 22 days out and I am noticing some loss of color near my ears. Don't know if my daughter who is a hairdresser didn't color that area enough or the dye is just fading. I use shampoo and conditioner for color treated hair so I don't think it's the products. Overall, I liked the color.
My hair was really black with gray around the edges,so the color took more around the edges and dark brown on the other parts of the hair.
Looking to get a deep red color,auburn color.
I think the packaging could be a little more environmentally friendly. Sure we all love a nice presentation but I would have been happy with the product in one plain brown box. Just sayin'
The color of the tube and the color of the print have very little contrast and is impossible to read. I cannot use a product without having readable instructions.
The color was easy to apply and did a good job of covering my greys. However, the conditioner was not very good, there was not nearly enough, and it left my hair knotty and tangled. I had to use a different conditioner following to get my hair back to its usual easy to comb texture.
Would have given 5 stars if the gloves fit—- too small for my arthritic hands and the bottle was difficult to squeeze so I had to use a bowl/brush
But product w shampoo/conditioner and color were great
Great alternative to salon colouring if time short and budget tight!

I loved the colour however this time I’ve asked to go a bit lighter as it came up slightly darker than planned. My hair has remained healthy with multi tones and certainly doesn’t look flat.
The color of the roots for gray coverage was just a shade darker. I received darkest brown and maybe I should go with dark brown. All in all I loved it for my first time and I look forward to my next color treatment. Thank you for making it so easy at home!
The girl who mixed my color (I think her name started with a “C”) did a FABULOUS job of mixing it; especially without a picture. I am a bit disappointed because my roots didn’t cover completely and i followed the instructions. I think the color was on longer than 20 minutes, too. It’s amazing how perfect the color was. It’s too bad that it didn’t really cover all of my gray. I hope it lasts til my hairdresser reopens!
I’ve tried many times to find this color red and paid way too much at a salon to be disappointed. Esalon matched me with the perfect red I’ve been looking for for years
Due to corona I’ve been unable to get to the salon. I have natural red hair but am going grey. I needed my roots doing but was scared to use a box dye. I messaged my hairdresser to try to get the exact number she uses but she did not reply. After being guided through the colour options my perfect match was found. I don’t think il be going back to the salon ever again for colour 🙌🏼
The color was in fact lightened as I asked however it was a bit too golden and didn’t blend quite as well but I’m still satisfied since they listened and did do what I asked :)
Ok, at first I thought the color was just a bit too dark, especially on the ends. After a few shampoos, color is about right, but ends somewhat darker. I will send picture, I did have the end replenished color this time. I need just a bit lighter, not like my first 2 orders, but maybe not as much brown.
I was extremely pleased with this custom color although it still was a little too light for me and faded pretty fast , but I got to the ginger tone is wanted and next order I’ll just ask to darken the tones that’s the beauty of esalon
The dye is sometimes hard to wash out and feels a bit slimy, but this time it was very easy and left my hair moisturized with perfect color and gray coverage!
Can't seem to get the right shade even though I've uploaded pictures 😬 and color seems to wash out within 2 weeks I'm back to natural color.love all the stuff that comes with the monthly box. My hair has seen drier lately but it could be due to a straightener I need to upgrade.
However, I found the process of mixing and painting on colour for roots, and then mixing and painting on colour for the ends, and then finishing with a shampoo, and then a conditioner in the shower was onerous and quite time consuming.
If at the end I were to notice a great improvement in the colour or in the condition of my hair, it might have been worth it. But I don't think I have the patience for the process on a regular basis. Thank you for cancelling my plan for me.
hello, this is kathy wooters I just wanted to see is there anyway you can purchase my order on March 25,2020, because I don't get payed until March 25,2020. thank you.
Hi.....I don't like to start out on a sour note , so I won't . Love the color. It couldn't be any closer to my natural color . but it didn't cover the white . It did the grey., but not the.wnite .Go figure . I followed the.directions to.the tee ,so I don't know what happened . Any suggestions ? Thx. P.S. At least it.blends well together. LOL
The instructions were great and it was easy to use. I did end up with a little more of a red tint than I would have preferred, but hopefully we can adjust and it'll work.
Beautiful color and easy to use. I liked having the extra color set for the ends - have long hair! Wish there was a little more conditioner for those with long hair but otherwise great!
I really like the color match. When I purchase hair color from the store I can never quite get it right. It’s either too cool or pulls red. If I go neutral it looks too mousy. This color was like it was matched to the color of my youth.
So at first I was a little dubious about whether or not I should give this eSalon colour a go, so I did a bit of research - reviews and YouTube videos etc, and from what I read and watched it seemed that the overall opinion was good, so given the fact it was 50% off for first time buyers I decided to take the plunge and try it. My hair is just above shoulder length and prior to using this colour I had a balayage meaning my hair had a fair amount of blonde in it (Im naturally dark), so given this fact I ordered a slightly darker colour because I knew it would fade. The package arrived quickly and was very neatly presented in its box. It was simple to use (no different to your shop box colour) and the colour was gorgeous. To be honest I was very impressed! My hair tends to feel dry and dull when using box colours (like a straw feeling), but this colour was just like a salon colour, soft, silky and shiny, and it only faded slightly too, where as the box colours I tend to find fade fairly quick. I am honestly so impressed with this colour and will definitley be purchasing it again!!
I ordered my initial color at a discount to try the product. They sent 2 bottle to ensure full coverage. I used as instructed and hated the color! I left it for about a week, thinking I just needed to adjust to it and it would be fine. A caveat being, this is only my second time coloring my hair ever in my 30+ years. So anyway, about a week in and I decide I can't wait, i do not like how my hair looks and can't wait until my next order in 2 months. I called the service number and spoke with a rep. She told me what I need to do first (take pics in natural light so they can see the color and identify what changes to make). I took the pics, replied to the email, and got a call back within the hour! We talked about what I wanted and what I didn't want, and they are making a whole new formula for me, free of charge, because I wasn't satisfied! I'm so excited to get my new color and try again. This will keep me coming back and will make me totally recommend to others! Bravo!
I will update (or review a second time) once I recieve the new color and can try it out!
I am editing this post as of March 12th.
The new color esalon sent me is beautiful. My hair is still healthy. I waited a while to write the review to see if my hair would fade and it hasn't. I recieved my new color quickly, the directions were tailor made again to ensure full color coverage, and I am very happy with my results overall. I would and have recommended esalon to others.
I love the way it is personalized just for me. Not the results I wanted but I will continue working with my stylist to get where I want to be color wise. Easy to apply, but does have a strong chemical smell.
Hi...I enjoy using this product but each time I mix it I think that I wish the cream bottle opening could easily accommodate the color bottle. The the 2 bottles being of similar but different size, you cant insert the color bottle into the cream bottle to assist in getting all of the color formula. That would be a nice convenience.
The quality of the product is good, but I am not satisfied with the color I chose or I am not as I thought it would be, so the website is limited and does not allow you to select another color.

The product is good and is professional looking but can not afford over 30.00 for refill
First time user - the color turned out beautiful and even with all my grays, it has lasted at least twice as long as the OTC brands I had been using. I can't wait to try the highlights! Plus they confirmed the products are cruelty free, which is a deal breaker for me.
Melanie- Thank you for your feedback, and we are so happy to hear that you are enjoying your eSalon color and experience! We love being able to help our clients’ achieve beautiful, salon-quality results at home. We look forward to blending your next color soon!

I love the product. Just not happy with the haircolor. It's a hit or miss. If they fix the color and credit all the haircolor I purchased, I'll give them a second shot
I absolutely love my color. The one time I didnt, they fixed and didn't charge me. My only complaint is how my hair feels. Not as soft as it use to be. 😥

Although it was VERY tough to wash the color out of my hair, the color was beautiful! I received so many compliments! Called customer service to ask about the difficulty in washing it out and they were super helpful!!
My experience with ESalon has been great. I do the temporary color, and it always comes out looking very natural no matter the formula I've done. Unfortunately, it doesn't cover gray well, but again, I use the temporary color. That may be different with permanent.
Unfortunately I ordered too dark a colour ,
Which i need to redo -
I was a bit confused directions ,as it said to apply to roots only and not through the rest of my hair ,as this is my first time using the product, if i applied it to roots only my hair would be two entirly different colours 🤔
