How to use
- BEFORE COLOURING: Always perform an allergy test 48 hours before use, even if you have already used coloring products. Please follow the instruction leaflet and read the safety information. Step 1: Using the applicator, squeeze colour mixture immediately to dry, unwashed hair. Work gently through hair as you would a shampoo, and apply to grey areas first. Step 2: For hair with little or no grey, wait 25 minutes with the mixture in your hair. For grey hair, leave on for an additional 15 to 20 minutes. Step 3: Rinse out. Add a small amount of warm water to hair and work into a lather. Then, rinse with warm water until water runs clear. Step 4: Condition and recondition weekly.

Nice product!
I really enjoyed the subtle dark red color and the color it leaves on their hair. It looks wonderful against my skin tone. I am glad my hair didn't get frayed and was glad it left my hair feeling soft and nourished. I especially love that the hair dye is ammonia free and protects the hair from har...

Universal Nudes Excellence Creme
I was very excited when I got this product and the before and after photos on the box showcased grey hair and my desired look. Application was easy and I was pleasantly pleased that the odour was minimal. The shampoo and nourishing conditioner were also lightly scented. I have been dying the roots o...

Terrible new drippy formula with inaccurate color

lorealparis.ca/I have been using this for decades and found the product great and colours to be very accurate. Not so of late, I've tried two different ash shades which resulted in orange and red tones. These are the same colors I've always used but now this new formula is nothing close to what I've experienced before. Very disappointed and forced to try something else.
5N is way darker than pictured

lorealparis.ca/I have very dark brown, almost black hair already, I'm Asian. I just needed to cover the greys at my roots and it somehow made my hair even darker than its natural colour despite being a "natural brown". Giving it two stars because it doesn't damage my hair at least.

lorealparis.ca/Je suis très déçu ! J ai acheté 2 teintures N5 et la coloration qui montre sur la boîte et ce que ca donner sur mes cheveux c est vraiment très différent. Ca donner noir au lieu d avoir une couleur plus cuivré. Je suis très déçu parce qu en plus de pas aimé ma couleur, j ai une teinture de pkus que j ai payé pour rien car je ne veux pas remettre ca dans mes cheveux
Not happy with the coverage
After leaving the product on my hair for recommended time still could see some grey hair. I left it another 10 min and washed away product. Hair felt almost mushy to touch. Took a few rinses to remove dye. After drying my hair, grey hair still visible at hairline. More grey showing with each wash. I do not recommend this product. Feeling very disappointed, as I did not see anything close to 100 percent coverage. Have loved the other L'Oréal hair dyes and have been much happier with the results.
Turned my hair Black like solid black!!!

lorealparis.ca/Just coloured my hair which is med brown with highlights (old) and it coloured my hair BLACK. It is wayyyyyy too dark. I bought a clarifying shampoo but still Black!!! Never had this before but always use an ash brown dark blonde. This is nothing like the photo on package saying natural brown universal nudes.
5N turns hair almost black!

lorealparis.ca/I tried the 5N and the colour looks NOTHING like the photo. It's almost black! Very very dark. Not at all the beautiful colour on the box. Very disappointing. I know sometimes box dye is a little dark at first but this is significantly darker. And I've seen so many reviews say they had the exact same experience with the 5N universal nudes. The model on the box has such a beautiful hair colour, I'm so sad it ruined my hair. I dyed it for a headshot I need to do in a few days and now it looks horrible. Don't recommend this shade at all !!!
