DisappointedI've been meaning to review my eSalon color for quite some time, I think I kept hoping it would improve. My first order was phenomenal, the color came out gorgeous. Unfortunately I was never able to replicate the color with the subsequent formulations. The third shipment is when I started to notice a significant difference in the product, especially the overwhelming overpowering smell; I've never used a color with such a potent chemical odor. Although I used the color in an open space with the windows wide open, I became sick to my stomach followed immediately by an awful headache - this has never happened before. Adding insult to injury the color was very dull, nothing like the rich chocolate color I achieved with the first shipment. A few weeks later I learned my 63 year old neighbor also used eSalon, during our conversation we realized we were sent the same "customized " color. My natural hair color is dark brown, her's is a much lighter color with shades of red - even when she colors her hair it's never close to a color as dark as my own. To say I was disappointed to learn my "custom color" was not in fact custom is an understatement; I feel as though to say so is false advertisement. Finally, my fourth shipment was the last straw as it caused burns to my skin that left me with permanent discoloration on my face (I accidentally touched part of my face with my finger) I should have known that a product with such a powerful chemical smell would be damaging to my skin. Needless to say I have discarded the remaining color I have and will no longer be utilizing eSalon products. 0 of 0 people found this review helpful. Did you? |

Response From Our ExpertsMichelle- Thank you for contacting us and sharing your feedback. We apologize that you were dissatisfied with your eSalon experience and found the smell of our color overwhelming. We would like to confirm that the ingredients in our color have not changed. We formulate your hair color based on your individual needs and some colors may fall in the within the same color range so they may have the same name but are a different formulation based on your formula ID. In rare cases, one can develop sensitivity to hair color over time. This is why eSalon recommends performing a skin allergy test 48 hours before each hair color application. Instructions for the skin allergy test are included in our Product Safety & Usage guide with every hair color order. |
Color change not achievedI reordered the same color as previous order, but included instruction to the colorist to make the color a little darker. Color result was actually lighter than previous application. I was very unhappy with the result of my "custom color" formula update. 0 of 0 people found this review helpful. Did you? |

Store brand colorThis was a color that I could get at Any retail store. I was hoping for a prettier custom color that wasn't a just out of a box shade. This was very disappointing. The people are nice and packaging was nice but the color wasn't. I will just buy from the store. 0 of 0 people found this review helpful. Did you? |

Dont just DontI was super excited and the color came out good, but it seems a whole lot of hair fell out. That never happened to me before! I noticed my hair has a gross sticky dry feeling. Not thrilled. Please cancel my order. 0 of 0 people found this review helpful. Did you? |

Ruined my hairI would give zero stars but that isn't an option. The color was dull and lifeless which I specifically called about and after using it my hair was so dry and damaged. I will never use this product again. Very disappointed in the entire experience 0 of 0 people found this review helpful. Did you? |

Not as good as it seemed.I loved the color the day that I did it. Every time I wash it, it fades back to almost my pre-color if I don't use the tinted love. I color was next to impossible to get out of hair when I went to wash it. Many of my greys have already lost the color and are showing through. Also the color I got was not solid. My hair has kind of an ombre effect when I was looking for all over color. I stated that I had a lot of grey hair and that it had been more than three months since my last color, so my new growth was close to 4 inches. I personally will not buy through esalon again. 0 of 0 people found this review helpful. Did you? |

Custom hair colorI think the color is actually quite good. But, I normally use the temporary color. When I subscribed, I reported that, and ordered the demi-permanent, which was as close as I could see to the color I use that washes out in 28 shampoos. This product is more permanent than that, and while I think this color would be great for my annual permanent color job, it isn't what I want to use for color upkeep the rest of the year. For others who expect a more permanent color, this is as fine a color as I've used, including whatever my stylist uses in her salon. 0 of 0 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
