Clairol Natural Instincts Demi-Permanent Hair Dye, 9 Light Blonde | 3 Pack

Perfect for blending grey very naturally! In my younger days I had auburn hair. When I went grey I started using permanent blonde 8 dye. Years later I got tired of maintaining it (grey roots, argh), and grew out my natural grey. Unfortunately my own grey was a mousy color and did not go well with my green eyes and warm coloring. I tried glazes, purple shampoos, etc., but the cool tones never looked right. I tried this product, and it was perfect! I only left it on 10 minutes, and it gave my grey hair a warm champagne glow. I still look grey, I’m 72 and not trying to hide that. It’s just that this grey is warm and natural on me. And the shade is light enough and fades enough that there is no “grow out” one month later. Bonus points for smelling nice and not damaging my hair like permanent dyes. I am putting this on subscription!

Easy to use. I put this over my bleach platinum hair and it is lovely, just a hit of pale gold, champagne, and vanilla blonde.

This works well for me. It brightens my hair with no bad order and great conditioning. It lasts about 3 months.

It's fine. The original brown box version has never made my hair otange-y, while this one does sometimes - but I find it harder & harder to find my shade in that original version in person any more (I use Sahara/neutral blonde), so this version is my backup plan. I have to be sure I use this on a Friday evening to ensure I have time to wash my hair Sunday evening with purple shampoo before I have to go to work. I still LOVE the aftercare conditioner - there's plenty for ongoing use, and it's the best treatment I've used. I would pay for that stuff on its own! The product itself is also very gentle on my hair. It always feels and looks super healthy when I'm done. That part is the same, and that's a good thing. Overall, this is not my first choice - but it is way preferable to a permanent color because of the potential damage they can inflict, and it's better than nothing. It's an okay sub for the brown box version, when necessary.

I use this to subtly enhance my natural, blah color. It gives me some strawberry blonde zing! I love that it's a demi-color and non-damaging. I do wish the conditioner was less scented, but it's only used once per week, so I deal with it. The application is quite runny, and could use improvement.

This has peroxide you mix with the color, they call it developer. I was looking for non peroxide color. This also only "blurs" ( their word) the gray in hair. A waste of money for me.

Hard to find this color in the stores. So easy to order from Amazon and very reasonably priced. I only use clairol natural instincts. Great at covering the gray and gentle with no stinging

Did absolutely nothing ! I’m coloring my hair for years now. I’m a dirty blonde and use lighter colors to be blonde. I’m pregnant and wanted to try a friendlier color. I’ve waited 3 months because it’s not recommended to dye your hair in early pregnancy. My roots are showing bad. Used the color and nothing changed. Still have my roots showing no difference at all. Can’t even get a refund.

I love this product, but it just would not color my roots, I left my hair as long as I could without washing it before coloring. it seemed to do the trick......and I also leave the product on for half an hour..after coloring it seemed to make my hair lank and greasy till I washed it again...the roots still wash out faster but at least it is there to start....other than that the colour is great...

Love this product hair is shinny and looks healthy. Doesn’t cover all greys, but still a great result

I didn't have any expectations for this product being a more natural alternative but it didn't disappoint. It covered the grey and has a uniform colour.

I used the Light Blond because I heard it was a good choice for grey hair. Unfortunately it seems to have come out as brassy, which is definitely not what I was expecting. The product itself is easy to use but I just don’t like the outcome. I might try the ash blond if I decide to use this product again.

My hair was untreated & golden to dark blonde in the winter (bleaches to light in summer). I wanted to brighten it. It was easy to put on & didn't stink at all but it really didn't do much for my hair. It actually gave it a bit of a red highlight (not entirely natural color). Wouldn't buy again.
