Colorsilk. Cheap and seems to work the best, I have tried them ALL, sad enough to say.

I used Loreal Ferria for years, but I noticed it wasn't lasting as long, now I'm using Clairol Nice and Easy and I love it, the gray stays away longer. The only bad thing is it takes 25 minutes.

I get mine done professionally. I did it myself for years, and the color just wouldn't stay on. My roots started showing after two weeks. My hairdresser is a color specialist, I go in every eight weeks, and my roots start showing after seven. It's my only splurge, and it's worth it to me to have my hair look good.

I haven't done my own color for a few years, but I had decent experiences with Feria, Garnier Nutrisse, and Natural Match. I used Feria to add red tones to my natural ash blonde, Garnier to pump up the blonde, and Natural Match when I went brunette. I don't color my hair at all anymore, apart from highlights once every year or so, and I don't do those myself.

Their own website appears to be down at this time. It's very bare anyway.

Have been everything from lightest ash blonde to black (currently golden brown) and L'Oreal Preference seems to give me the most natural color.

I have only tried a few different ones over many years, but I think I like Loreal Preference the best, too!

I love Revlon Colorsilk (easy to use and cheaper, for a simple haircolor do).

Feria (for something a little more dramatic or if the other brand doesn't have my color anymore).

Garnier Nutrisse (I love their brunette shades).

I use Clairol professional color! Recently I found out I can use the low-lift developer since I use a dark color, but even using the maximum lift the product still worked really well. My hair tends to get reddish-brown in the sun. To me this does not look good if your skin is already brown, so I dye it blue black and Clairol is the best. I also tried Topchic, which works pretty well, but seems to be harder to find, more expensive and works just as well as Clairol. I just wanted to remind home-dyers to do the allergy test each time before you color. Hairstylists and even I forget to do this myself and assume I won't have a bad reaction, but I think we should all make an effort to do this just in case.
