Clairol Reviews 

Clairol nice 'n easy is the dye equivalent of a chocolate fire guard; in other words not fit for purpose. The package claims 100% grey coverage, but it actually covers no grey. I've been using this product for over 20 years. but have to now look around for another brand of hair dye as there is no point in buying it any more. Waste of time and money.

I used this hair product for years with no complaints but since they changed the formula my hair has become dull and lank and thin and the coverage isn't as good there's no shine to my hair anymore! It needs to be taken off the shelves and the old formula brought back people won't buy this

I wish I could give this a minus review. I have used Clairol for years, decades as my hair darkened, I am a light blonde normally. For years I was able to use this with no problem. THEN they changed the formula. The hair color comes out odd - blonde with orange highlights - HUH? Then came the truly nasty surprise hair loss. I have been thinking what has caused all of this over the past 6 months. UH well I found this site and discovered I am not alone. Now I can only hope my hair will regrow and be good again. NEVER, EVER will use Clairol again. Destroyed my hair.

I have to agree. I have always used Clairol but now I am going to have to use another brand. I have been so upset, I cry at the sight of the clumps of hair falling out. It is so distressing, and I have been spending a fortune on treatments in an attempt to stop it. Never again.

Do not use this. After using Nice and Easy for over 20 years never thought twice about using the 'new and improved formula' BIG BIG mistake. My hair has been falling out since I used it and whats left is unbelievably coarse. In fact after years of growing my hair I think I will now have to get it cut short as nothing I have tried has changed the texture back to what it was. Furious.

Bought the Dark warm brown hair dye and after following the instructions correctly my hair has now got a bright red tint in it. Will not be using again. Red is a hard colour to get rid of and I will now have to dye my hair again.

Dont use, got me very bad skin burns and left it for way less than says on package

If i could i would give 0

Couldn't agree more with these reviews. I've used this for over 20 years with perfect results, and have to say the new formula is horrendous. Everything about it. It stinks...quite literally, and after three washes I can't get rid of the smell. There's no shine like the old version, it gives rubbish coverage, stains your skin and burns your scalp. Why on earth did it change?! Unbelievable.

I have used Clairol Nice N Easy for about 30 years and have always been pleased with the result, until
I used the new formula. Instead of the glossy full coverage that I had come to expect, this time my hair is dull and grey roots are not covered. I am so disappointed and will not be buying again.

I have used this product for years but in recent times since the product has been changed I have noticed my hair has become coarse and thinning at a rapid rate. After reading other reviews I now know that this product is the cause of this!!!
Why change a product that has been proven and successful to one that is way inferior???
I can only guess this wasn't to improve the product for the consumer, but rather the ingredients have been changed for ingredients that are cheaper to manufacture this greater profit!!!
I will no longer be using this or any other Clairol products!!!

Do not use, my hair is like straw,breaking and loads of hair loss, I always had thick hair but now its destroyed, should be taken off the market,awful product

The Frost and Tip price is terrible. BECAUSE! I have short hair and it only takes about a quarter of the mixture to frost and tip my hair. So three quarters gets tipped down the drain. You need to make a smaller cheaper pack for people with short hair.

I wrote a review awhile ago saying how bad the new formula was...they had changed the shape of the box aswell going from a rectangular box to one being angled having a corner cut off....Ive noticed they have gone back to the old shaped box trying to imply they have gone back to the old formula but they have'nt...very sneaky Clairol but it does'nt wash!!!

I have used nice and easy many times since I was in my 20s and loved the results, im now 42.
Recently used the rich mahogany brown, i have used this colour 3 times in the past. big mistake this time. Why have you changed the formula!!! ???? It seems I'm one of the lucky ones with a minor reaction after reading all the reviews on here!!!
My hair and forehead have been itching, and my hair feels awful, shedding loads, and since read all the other reviews of poor ladies getting worse. Get rid of the new formula its not safe!! Particularly the brown colours.

I have used N & E for over 30 years, new growth as usual but I have used N & E for over 30 years,new growth as usual lately blotches of dark almost black on a N 5 Med golden brown..today was worse.no grey coverage.

I decided to try clairol to save some money. I haven’t used box hair coloring for 15 yrs. before this dreadful mistake. I immediately loss 70% of my hair afterwards. I’m sick. I had long thick beautiful hair beforehand. Don’t use Clairol hair coloring! It needs to be taken off the market!

i have used nice and easy dark brown hair dye for years , but you have changed it, last time thought i had a dud one it was lighter than normal i thought i had wrong colour but i had not i have just tried it again its awfull would love to give you zero stars or even minus stars , its lighter it rinses out a yukky brown green and my hair is not as dark brown as usual, odd and instead of the usual nice feeling and looking hair i get afterwards, its all greasy not nice will never use it again waist of money

Absolutely awful, I wish I could give zero stars like many other people in these reviews. I have naturally light brown hair and was attempting to dye it with the Medium Mahogany Brown color. This turned my hair an awful unnatural blue-ish pitch black. I have naturally curly dry hair, so there is nothing I can do to lighten what this horrible dye did, I can only hope it fades soon. Completely ruined my hair, never use this. I will be seeking a refund

Well...I guess I'll be a dark brunette for a while...
I've been using Nice n Easy for 25 years. I do my roots every 3-4 weeks (got 2 applications/package) and usually pull it through about once a year. It was so reliable that I'd buy up boxes whenever there was a sale and/or coupons. I did notice a while back the packaging and contents had changed but thought nothing of it. I was finally out of the old packaging. I'd vacillate between medium golden brown, light golden brown and lightest golden brown, depending on what results I wanted. My light golden brown hair had become strawberry blonde so it was time to darken it up a bit, so I went medium golden brown, without even batting an eyelid that anything would be different. Well, wrong-o! Dark brunette. At least it's got golden undertones so it's not dreadful with my redheads complexion but what a surprise after 25 years of use. Quite disappointing, Clairol...
*Note: even with all of my years of dermatological issues, I've not had any scalp issues, thank the Lord!*
