awesome color!- 03.10.10
Quick Take: the best product out there bar none!
Best product I've ever tried at home - and I've been coloring my hair for 30 years! This delivers its promise - soft, shiny, full-bodied results with all-over true color. I will not go back to my $10 "premium" haircolor as long as this is available.

Love My Hair!!- 02.07.10
Quick Take: wonderful, worth the price
I normally use Feria in Champagne blonde. The 9N I just tried is very close to that shade - even a little better. My hair is very long with about 20% gray. This product went on thick and creamy with no nasty ammonia smell. You do keep it on 35" but it is not uncomfortable like some store brands can get. As I was washing it out, I could already tell my hair felt nice - not stripped. The gray is completely covered. My hair looks and feels great!

9N - does the "n" mean no color?- 12.31.09
Quick Take: good for hair
I tried the "Ashley" shade (10W) about three months back and it worked great. Really loved the color and it was very close to the shade on the box. Thought I'd go a little bit lighter, and tried 9N today. It covered some gray hair, but there wasn't much of a difference in the shade, at all. Kind of disappointing, even though I read many reviews to that effect. Maybe I should try 10N...

Love the product, but I don't love 9N- 12.23.09
I have used about six different Fekkai color shades, most of them in the red family, a few in the blond family. I was a light reddish blond, and used 9N. I didn't notice ANY difference AT ALL. I suppose it's better than having my hair turn orange, but it's still a waste of $30. Perhaps if you already have VERY light platinum blond hair, then this color would work, but if you have ANYTHING darker, then I don't think that the 9N will work. I would like to try the 10N, but have heard similar comments about the 10N. I know that you're not supposed to go more than 2 shades lighter or darker than your color, but I would think you would still get SOME kind of change. Not with this one! I will use this system again (I use it about every 5 weeks), I just won't be using 9N again - if I need to go THAT blond, I'll have to visit a salon, I suppose.

Didn't lighten much- 12.19.09
Quick Take: disappointing
Last night I did a root-touch up using 9N, but I didn't like the results. My natural color is a medium blonde and this dye did not lighten my hair very much at all. So if you're looking for a product to lighten your hair more than one shade, look elsewhere.

great product- 11.11.09
This is a great product. Most hair products make my scalp tingle. This one did not. Most hair products cause my hair to become dull. This did not. Most hair products fade, even with color-protectant shampoo. This one did not. I went back to salon color for my last coloring, and all I can say is I am not happy with the results. This weekend before I let my stylist cut my hair, it will be already colored... by me! And it will look and feel great!

Watch out for 10N- 10.18.09
Quick Take: stay with 9n!, i still love this product!
Don't get me wrong...I will always buy this product. However, the first time I used 9N, and I LOVED the results. I thought I could achieve a more platinum blonde by going to the 10N, but it ended up ashy looking. (I have 75% grey hair) I am going to highlight to bring back my blonde tones, but I would stay with the 9 N for best results.

nice product- 09.24.09
I've used this product twice now and like it very much. Very natural looking color and it holds up a long time. I even went on a beach vacation and the color didn't seem to fade. My only complaint is the delivery system. The tray and brush probably would be great if I was using it on someone else, but it is not easy to apply to the back of my head. I've always had better control with a squeeze bottle.

n9- 09.03.09
Quick Take: easy to apply, smells good, no burning sensation
I never write reviews but this product saved my hair. I recently de-colored my very dark hair and had a white orange pelt best seen in Scy-Fi movies. I just applied the n9 and my hair looks normal again. I have tried salon and drugstore products and I have been coloring my hair for years, so I know my way around color. This product does what it claims. Note: remember to get a lighter tone that the one you want; it runs slightly darker.

Came out better than I expected- 08.26.09
I was really hesitant about this product because of the reviews, but I decided to try it out anyway. Overall I'm happy with the outcome. The color is definately darker than what the box and even the hair swatch color in the store looks like. The only thing I'm not crazy about is how it leaves your hair with a flat one color look, which I think looks fake. I'll add a couple of highlights or lowlights to give it more dimension though. The pretreatment was nice, the smell was pleasant, but I wasn't crazy about the after conditioner- I had to use more of another type b/c my hair didn't feel silky enough.

Yeeeee Haaaaaa!- 08.21.09
Quick Take: natural looking, amazing - no more salon trips!, don't be afraid to try this at home!
I used 9N; and now just noticed there is even a lighter blonde available - I may use 10N next time. All I can say is, YOU WILL LOVE THE RESULTS. I have been coloring my hair for years; I was afraid of unevenness and brass orange on the dsrker areas. THIS DID NOT HAPPEN! I am 75% grey naturally, but still have my old light brown in the back. The color is superb, hair soft.

Still better than Salon Color- 08.07.09
Quick Take: better than salon color
I reviewed this product before in June un "better than Salon Color" but just wanted to say that after 7 weeks- & I finally had to color again. I have never had a color LAST on my head for 7 weeks! I have grays and did use a little "nice n easy" root touch up at week 5 but this color really stayed TRUE for a LONG TIME! This time, I went a shade darker to a 7N and did my own L'oreal Frosting Kit highlights. All my friends and co-workers thought I'd gone to the salon & spent $200! Total cost: $30 for this color & $12 for the box of L'oreal Frosting Kit. I have naturally light brown hair with LOTs of gray & now have beautiful dark blond with sunkist highlilghts!

Love the overall product, Color is a lot darker- 08.04.09
Quick Take: darker than intended
So I just dyed my hair with the 9N last night and after reading all of the reviews I still decieded to get 9N because I was too nerouvs to buy the lightest shade of blonde that Frederic Fekkai makes. Let me tell you- my hair is DARKER than when I went to dye it; it was a light blonde, a little darker than on the box. Now it's way darker. However I must say I was extremely happy with the product other than the color (and even though the color is darker than I wanted it's still a pretty color with highlights.) I liked how easy the application was! I have about two inches longer than mmy shoulder length hair and I had plenty of dye. The smell was nice too.

good color but too light- 08.03.09
Quick Take: easy long lasting but too light
This is a great system for in home use. The color last and is easyt o apply. However for my natural blonde hair this is too light. The next ash tone is too dark . So I end up buying 9N and 8N and mixing. This works fine, but I wish I didn't have too. Also the gray is completely covered and last just as long as my salon treatments. Please someone read this and encourage this great hair product company to develop another color that is in the middle of these two.

darker than I expected.....- 08.01.09
Quick Take: darker than expected, gentle, professional application method, covers roots well, warm rich color
I received this product as a Sephora promotion. I have tried many other brands of hair color and I thought the 8W was an industry standard of some sort. However, the "medium golden blond" is more like a reddish-brown. I added my own highlights the next day to lighten the look, with decent results. On the plus side, the brush method is different, and ensures good root coverage. It takes a little longer to do, but the results are good. Also, the product was gentle to my very fine hair.

very misleading color- 07.27.09
Quick Take: misleading
I read the reviews and opted for a shade lighter than the box indicated and chose 9N. Well, I should of gone with even lighter because I ended up with a dark ashy blonde color that's far, far from the box picture. The only reason I gave it 2 stars is because it did leave my hair in good condition. Over all VERY disappointing

Great Color- 07.21.09
When I received this I didn't think I'd like it because it had to be brushed on, but really wasn't any more difficult to apply than with a bottle. The results were fantastic. I've been doing my own color for many years and I've never such perfect results. The color is very natural. All my friends and family even commented on how natural the color looked. Love, Love, Love. If you're on the fence...worry no more.

9N Mia Review- 07.20.09
Quick Take: exactly what you expect and fabulous, buy one shade lighter than you want
Read all the reviews and purchased one shade lighter than I wanted to prepare that it might be one shade darker than the box. It was and it looks fabulous! I have battled with stylists for years regarding hair color. I am a natural dark ash blonde but hairdressers hate ash tones so severely that they go too far astray with my hair. Worse yet I almost always have a stylist who stumbles into a red fiasco with me and then has no choice but to bleach it out many shades lighter than I would ever like to be. After applying the 9N Mia haircolor with total ease in prep and application time I got the exact color result that I wanted with absolutely no red, not even a hint. After spending approximately $168 per salon visit for color and cut I think I just saved my checkbook a ton and will just visit for cuts in the fuiture!

PERFECT!- 07.10.09
I used drugstore brands on my dark blonde hair for years to get it lighter. They would always give my hair a reddish tint, which I didn't like. I decided to try the "Ashley" color on my hair and I was very impressed. My hair turned a bit lighter than the color on the box. This dye also added some added blonde highlights to my hair which I love!
The brush is okay but you still have to work the dye through your hair (I depended on the brush too much the first time and ended up missing spots)
Even though it is a bit expensive, I will only use this dye from now on.
