Additionally, the formula, with our exclusive Triple Shine Hydrience Conditioning Complex™, delivers up to 33% more shine.* *vs. untreated hair Frequently Asked Questions: About Clairol products: What products does Clairol make? Clairol makes haircolor products. Choose from Semi-Permanent (lasts through 8-12 shampoos), Demi-Permanent (lasts through 28 shampoos), Permanent (lasts until your hair grows out or you recolor) or Highlighting & Blonding to help you become colorwonderful™. Should individuals with natural, uncolored hair use different haircolor products than those who have previously colored their hair? It depends on the desired result. If you are coloring your hair for the first time and only want to enhance your natural color, try a Demi-Permanent (lasts through 28 shampoos) product close to your natural haircolor. If you want to go lighter, you need to select a Permanent (lasts until your hair grows out or you recolor) haircolor, then refer to the insert that comes inside your box of Clairol haircolor and follow the instructions for first time application. Should people who want to cover gray hair use different coloring products than those who don't need coverage? Most Clairol haircolor products will blend or cover gray hair to some degree. If you have a small percentage of gray (not very visible), use a Semi-Permanent (lasts through 8-12 shampoos) product, such as Loving Care. If you have a higher percentage of gray hair (up to 50%), use a Demi-Permanent (lasts through 28 shampoos) product such as Natural Instincts, which will blend away gray hair. On the other hand, if you have a lot of gray and want to cover it completely, use a Permanent (lasts until your hair grows out or you recolor) product. If you have 50% or more gray, use Nice 'n Easy Gray Solution. How can I test-run a color before committing to coloring my entire head of hair? Strand test is a simple method for you to test haircolor on a portion of your hair before doing the entire application. (The instructions are in your haircolor box.) It's an important step because it's the only way to see exactly how the shade you selected works with your starting haircolor to achieve the resulting color. A strand test will also help you determine the exact timing you'll need to color your whole head. Where can I find product instructions? Product instruction inserts are inside your haircolor box. Additional Instructions: BEFORE YOU COLOR: 48 HOURS IN ADVANCE Take the ALLERGY TEST. Do the STRAND TEST to determine your optimal coloring time. Read this entire instruction leaflet before you begin. IMPORTANT: SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS HAIR COLORANTS CAN CAUSE ALLERGIC REACTIONS WHICH IN RARE INSTANCES CAN BE SEVERE. TATTOOS MAY INCREASE YOUR RISK OF ALLERGY, TO REDUCE YOUR RISK FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS: 1. DO NOT USE THIS PRODUCT AT ALL IF: You have already experienced any reaction to coloring products. You have sensitive, irritated or damaged scalp. In these cases do not conduct the skin allergy test and consult a doctor before using any haircolor product. 2. PERFORM A SKIN ALLERGY TEST 48 HOURS BEFORE EACH PRODUCT USE even if you have already used coloring products before SKIN ALLERGY TEST INSTRUCTIONS MUST BE PERFORMED 48 HOURS BEFORE YOU COLOR YOUR HAIR. You will need a cotton ball or swab, a plastic bowl and a plastic spoon. To open, unscrew the entire Color-blend Activator applicator bottle cap (2). (Don't tear off the tab.) Then unscrew the Color-blend Formula cap (1). Mix small, equal parts of Color-blend Formula (1) and Color-blend Activator ( 2 ) in a plastic bowl. (For Ultra Light Blonde #87, add 1 part of Color-blend Formula and 2 parts of Color-blend Activator.) Tightly recap both bottles. Apply mixture to a test area the size of a quarter in the bend of your elbow. Allow to dry. Use remaining mixture for the Strand Test. Do not wash this area for 48 hours. During washing, protect with an adhesive bandage and remove it immediately after washing. Examine the test area during the next 48 hours. If no reaction occurs, you are ready to color. The absence of reaction to this test is no guarantee that an allergic reaction may not occur as a result of a future haircoloring process. However, this test represents an important precaution. Please consult a doctor if you have any doubts. NOTE: IF A RASH, REDNESS, BURNING OR ITCHING OCCURS YOU MAY BE ALLERGIC. STOP. YOU MUST NOT USE THIS PRODUCT. WHAT TO DO IF YOU HAVE A REACTION DURING OR WITHIN THE NEXT 48 HOURS OF COLORING YOUR HAIR IF DURING COLORING YOU EXPERIENCE: Any stinging or burning and/or rash, rinse immediately and discontinue use as this may be an indication of a more serious reaction. DO NOT color your hair again before consulting a doctor or seeking medical advice. Rapidly spreading skin rash, dizziness or faintness, shortness of breath and/or swelling eyes/face, rinse immediately and SEEK IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION. IF AFTER COLORING OR ON THE FOLLOWING DAYS YOU EXPERIENCE problems, such as skin itching, skin rash, swelling to eyes/face, blistering and/or skin or scalp weeping SEEK IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION. SPECIAL CAUTIONS: This product contains ingredients including hydrogen peroxide, which may cause severe eye irritation and possible permanent eye injury. If any product gets into your eye, flush immediately with a large amount of lukewarm water and seek medical advice. We recommend removing contact lenses before applying haircolor. If you must wear contact lenses during application and if any product gets into your eye, remove the lens first, then flush immediately with a large amount of lukewarm water and seek medical advice. Never use haircolor on eyebrows or eyelashes or if your scalp is irritated or injured. Do not inhale or ingest product. Do not use if your hair has been colored with henna or metal dyes. Prepare and use the product in a well-ventilated area. If you experience inhalation difficulties, move to fresh air. Remove all metal objects from hair before and during coloring. Wear gloves and rinse hair well after application. Keep product in a cool place away from heat and light. Do not mix this colorant with any other product. Do not keep any unused mixed product. Do not leave the mixture in a closed bottle (bottle may expand or burst). Product not intended to be used on children. Keep all haircoloring products out of reach of children. STRAND TEST: Do the Strand Test each time you color to determine optimal timing and color results. Perms, relaxers, previous color, and the sun can affect your results and timing. You will need: scissors, tape and a clock. Cut a ¼ inch wide strand from the darkest or grayest part of your dry hair close to the scalp and tape at the cut end. Dampen with water. Completely cover the hair strand with the mixture remaining from the Allergy Test. Start timing. After 15 minutes, check the strand. If the strand is not the color you want, return it to the mixture for up to 25 minutes. For extra light blonding, more intense color results, or to cover resistant grays, it may be necessary to leave the haircolor on for up to 45 minutes. Fill in your personal color time below: My timing for desired color: _______ minutes. Color Hints & Tips Use Nice ’n Easy for ultimate natural-looking color with rich tones and contouring highlights in one simple step! Apply color to dry hair that is free of styling product build-up. If hair has build-up, shampoo one day prior to coloring. Do not shampoo immediately before coloring. Your scalp has natural oils that help to protect it during the coloring process. If any color gets on your skin or household surface, wipe it off immediately with a damp towel. Use the ColorSeal Conditioning Gloss only once a week. It has been designed to give you long-lasting benefits. For best results use a quarter-size amount per application. If your hair has been recently permed or relaxed, wait at least 7 days and 1 shampoo before coloring. Do the Strand Test since your timing may need to be reduced. If you plan to perm or relax your hair, wait at least 7 days and 1 shampoo after coloring. If you've used a gradual color restorer, henna, or metallic dyes, do not use this product until your hair has grown out and colored areas have been cut off.

Amazon is the only place I can find this color.

by Elena from on 2010-07-01
I mix this color with #108 to go in-between the two colors - lighter than the 108 but darker than the 107. Amazon is the ONLY place I have been able to get this color!

Clairol #107 - hard to find!

by Sunshine from Springfield, MO on 2010-05-18
I have been using this hair color for years. All of a sudden, it could not be found anywhere so I turned to Amazon and there it was. Amazon saved my roots. However, I do miss not using the Clairol discount coupons.....but. at least, I have my color.

by Darlene F. Allison from Phoenix, AZ on 2010-04-14
You had this product shown as "light strawberry blonde" which is why I ordered it. When I received it, it was "natural strawberry blonde". I did not receive the product I ordered. Very dissapointed.

Our exclusive Color Blend Technology™ gives you a pigment-rich base layered with contouring highlights. Additionally, the formula, with our exclusive Triple Shine Hydrience Conditioning Complex™, delivers up to 33% more shine.* *vs. untreated hair Frequently Asked Questions: About Clairol products: What products does Clairol make? Clairol makes haircolor products. Choose from Semi-Permanent (lasts through 8-12 shampoos), Demi-Permanent (lasts through 28 shampoos), Permanent (lasts until your hair grows out or you recolor) or Highlighting & Blonding to help you become colorwonderful™. Should individuals with natural, uncolored hair use different haircolor products than those who have previously colored their hair? It depends on the desired result. If you are coloring your hair for the first time and only want to enhance your natural color, try a Demi-Permanent (lasts through 28 shampoos) product close to your natural haircolor. If you want to go lighter, you need to select a Permanent (lasts until your hair grows out or you recolor) haircolor, then refer to the insert that comes inside your box of Clairol haircolor and follow the instructions for first time application. Should people who want to cover gray hair use different coloring products than those who don't need coverage? Most Clairol haircolor products will blend or cover gray hair to some degree. If you have a small percentage of gray (not very visible), use a Semi-Permanent (lasts through 8-12 shampoos) product, such as Loving Care. If you have a higher percentage of gray hair (up to 50%), use a Demi-Permanent (lasts through 28 shampoos) product such as Natural Instincts, which will blend away gray hair. On the other hand, if you have a lot of gray and want to cover it completely, use a Permanent (lasts until your hair grows out or you recolor) product. If you have 50% or more gray, use Nice 'n Easy Gray Solution. How can I test-run a color before committing to coloring my entire head of hair? Strand test is a simple method for you to test haircolor on a portion of your hair before doing the entire application. (The instructions are in your haircolor box.) It's an important step because it's the only way to see exactly how the shade you selected works with your starting haircolor to achieve the resulting color. A strand test will also help you determine the exact timing you'll need to color your whole head. Where can I find product instructions? Product instruction inserts are inside your haircolor box. Additional Instructions: BEFORE YOU COLOR: 48 HOURS IN ADVANCE Take the ALLERGY TEST. Do the STRAND TEST to determine your optimal coloring time.

Choose from Semi-Permanent (lasts through 8-12 shampoos), Demi-Permanent (lasts through 28 shampoos), Permanent (lasts until your hair grows out or you recolor) or Highlighting & Blonding to help you become colorwonderful™. Should individuals with natural, uncolored hair use different haircolor products than those who have previously colored their hair? It depends on the desired result. If you are coloring your hair for the first time and only want to enhance your natural color, try a Demi-Permanent (lasts through 28 shampoos) product close to your natural haircolor.

Should people who want to cover gray hair use different coloring products than those who don't need coverage? Most Clairol haircolor products will blend or cover gray hair to some degree. If you have a small percentage of gray (not very visible), use a Semi-Permanent (lasts through 8-12 shampoos) product, such as Loving Care. If you have a higher percentage of gray hair (up to 50%), use a Demi-Permanent (lasts through 28 shampoos) product such as Natural Instincts, which will blend away gray hair.

It has been designed to give you long-lasting benefits. For best results use a quarter-size amount per application. If your hair has been recently permed or relaxed, wait at least 7 days and 1 shampoo before coloring. Do the Strand Test since your timing may need to be reduced. If you plan to perm or relax your hair, wait at least 7 days and 1 shampoo after coloring. If you've used a gradual color restorer, henna, or metallic dyes, do not use this product until your hair has grown out and colored areas have been cut off.

Hair color

by D. M. Randall-kirkwood from Livonia, Michigan on 2010-04-15
I couldn't find the Light Spice Color by Clariol anywhere in the southeast Michigan area so I decided to see if you would be able to obtain the color and you did. My hair stylst was reluctant to try something that was not "salon quality", but after seeing how well this works, she is also very happy with the product holding its color and easy application.

No Brown - Just Pitch BLACK

by Azon_Junkie from CA, USA on 2010-03-28
This Clairol shade is completely misleading. It results in BLACK hair with no hint of any brown. The box I used has a different photo but is also labeled '121A natural darkest brown'. I've read many complaints online for this Clairol shade. I wish I had read them before trying this on my hair. I'm happy with Clairol in general and have been using its other colors regularly. In this particular case though, its completely misleading. I wish Clairol would just discontinue this shade or relabel it.

Additionally, the formula, with our exclusive Triple Shine Hydrience Conditioning Complex™, delivers up to 33% more shine.* *vs. untreated hair Frequently Asked Questions: About Clairol products: What products does Clairol make? Clairol makes haircolor products. Choose from Semi-Permanent (lasts through 8-12 shampoos), Demi-Permanent (lasts through 28 shampoos), Permanent (lasts until your hair grows out or you recolor) or Highlighting & Blonding to help you become colorwonderful™. Should individuals with natural, uncolored hair use different haircolor products than those who have previously colored their hair? It depends on the desired result. If you are coloring your hair for the first time and only want to enhance your natural color, try a Demi-Permanent (lasts through 28 shampoos) product close to your natural haircolor. If you want to go lighter, you need to select a Permanent (lasts until your hair grows out or you recolor) haircolor, then refer to the insert that comes inside your box of Clairol haircolor and follow the instructions for first time application. Should people who want to cover gray hair use different coloring products than those who don't need coverage? Most Clairol haircolor products will blend or cover gray hair to some degree. If you have a small percentage of gray (not very visible), use a Semi-Permanent (lasts through 8-12 shampoos) product, such as Loving Care. If you have a higher percentage of gray hair (up to 50%), use a Demi-Permanent (lasts through 28 shampoos) product such as Natural Instincts, which will blend away gray hair. On the other hand, if you have a lot of gray and want to cover it completely, use a Permanent (lasts until your hair grows out or you recolor) product. If you have 50% or more gray, use Nice 'n Easy Gray Solution. How can I test-run a color before committing to coloring my entire head of hair? Strand test is a simple method for you to test haircolor on a portion of your hair before doing the entire application. (The instructions are in your haircolor box.) It's an important step because it's the only way to see exactly how the shade you selected works with your starting haircolor to achieve the resulting color. A strand test will also help you determine the exact timing you'll need to color your whole head. Where can I find product instructions? Product instruction inserts are inside your haircolor box.

Makes Hair Fall Out

by Kimberly Bangert from on 2009-06-01
I normally dye my hair about once a month, I've used all different kinds of store-bought dyes from Loreal to Garnier to Revlon to this kind. This kind in particular compared to other kinds made my hair fall out in clumps. It also dyed my hair black not a medium reddish brown, even though I kept it in for only the time given on the directions. I hate the color and it's thinning my regular hair, I might have to go to the salon to get it fixed now : (
