“I have partnered with eSalon.com to bring you this conversation. All opinions and experiences are 100% my own.”
I hate going to the salon. I mean really hate it. The past few trips to the hair salon I have left in a pretty bad mood, and I don’t even let them color or style my hair. I go in and pretty much only get a hair cut. That’s it. Today I am so excited to tell you about at home hair color made easy.
Why you ask? Because the last time I actually let a stylist color my hair I looked like a skunk. Now I have fairly dark hair and it has just a bit of red in it. Well I left with brassy copper looking chunky streaks in my hair and I hated it.
I mean its OK but I don’t like the brassy color of the highlights. I was ready to cover not only the highlights but the gray in my hair. Now I have about 25% gray mixed in my dark tresses and its OK and I don’t mind covering it either. This is where eSalon has saved the day.
Have you heard of eSalon? Let me tell you just a little bit about them.
“eSalon is the first and ONLY customized hair color service globally. We currently serve the US, UK, CA and Europe. Since launching in September 2010, we have enjoyed tremendous growth and shipped over 3,000,000 unique hair color applications – and this number is growing fast. We firmly believe our product and service is far superior to any other home hair color product on the market.”
Are you wondering how it works? I have to tell you I love this process. Simply go to eSalon.com, enter your hair details and upload a photo. Then, an expert colorists reviews the order and creates a unique, individually blended hair color formula, using professional ingredients typically only available in salons. Finally, the color, along with personal application instructions, is mailed to the client, ready to apply at their own convenience. This is all done in the convenience of your home you can do this sitting in your pajamas sipping a coke zero not that I did this but you can.LOL. I love that even after I put in all my info and uploaded my photo and picked my color a Expert colorist reviewed my selections and emailed me saying they had a better color choice for me. I loved this I felt like I was getting a personal consultation.
The kit arrives so quick mine was here in a matter of a few days. Its packaged in a cute box and everything is labeled and easy to know what is what. THEN there are YOUR personal instructions. They tell you exactly what to do, how to mix the color, how long to leave the color on and when to take it off. Another thing of note is like a stylist in a salon eSalon.com keeps client color history on file and uses that info for future color applications (FYI their hair color can not currently take anyone more than 2 shades lighter than their natural hair color).
So I am sure your wondering how my color turned out. I have to say I love it. I love it so much I actually went to a stylist to get a cut and even let her curl it. I wanted beach waves but I think its just curly, that’s OK I think it looks cute. This is taken inside it is much prettier out in the sunshine.
Here it is in the sunshine.
And the back. I love the color it is so pretty. No more brassy chunks of color it is so subtle and I just love it.

Your new hair color looks great! I do have to agree though that your beachy waves you got done look more curly than wavy, but it still looks good, waves or curls…Noone would even know you did it yourself at home from a color you ordered online with a questionnaire & a picture unless you told them. Another blogger I read posted about eSalon & offered the same deal to 1st timers last year, I jumped on the offer & order my color yet it still sits un used. Not real sure what I’m waiting for but I should probably get to using it here soon. Sorry to hear you’ve had such unpleasant experiences at the salon but glad you found a way to get the color you desire on your own though!

Salon experiences for me are typically nerve wracking as it is so difficult to find people who make you feel comfortable and happy with the way your hair is handled. Thanks so much for sharing your review of the hair kit. The color looks wonderful on you!
