A top performer in GH Beauty Lab testing, Garnier’s permanent color is made with no ammonia and a high concentration of nourishing oil so it’s gentle on hair that’s damaged from treatments like keratin or thinning strands. The formula scored high for its pleasant non-chemical scent, ease of rinsing, and not irritating, and it didn’t fade over weeks after application. “Made my hair feel extremely healthy and looked very natural,” one tester raved.
In GH Beauty Lab testing, experts found that Clairol Nice ‘n Easy was the best pick for light hair and has a gentler, more conditioning formula. While all brands tested for blonde shades have only scored average (or worse) for covering up gray, Nice ‘n Easy stood out for fade resistance and keeping its shine. In Lab evaluations, it scored high for giving a natural look, 79% of testers said it left their hair soft and shiny and 90% said it didn’t cause irritation. “Easy to apply and left hair extremely soft, even without conditioner,” a tester reported.
