Customer Reviews

Julia Thompson

I’ve been using Clairol Natural Instincts for years, and it has completely changed my hair routine! Unlike permanent dyes that leave my hair dry and brittle, this demi-permanent color keeps my strands soft and shiny. I chose a warm brown shade, and the results were stunning—my grays blended seamlessly, and my hair looked so natural. Plus, the coconut oil and aloe vera in the formula made my hair feel nourished instead of damaged. The application was easy, and the color lasted around six weeks before fading gracefully. This is my go-to for a fresh and healthy look!

Emily Rodriguez

As someone with sensitive skin and a history of bad experiences with hair dye, I was skeptical about trying another brand. However, Clairol Natural Instincts proved to be a game changer! The formula is ammonia-free, which means no harsh chemical smell or scalp irritation. I went for a dark blonde shade, and it added a lovely golden depth to my natural color without looking artificial. It also left my hair feeling incredibly soft and manageable. The color lasted well over a month and faded naturally without any awkward brassiness. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a gentle yet effective hair color!

Sarah Peterson

I absolutely love this product! I was looking for something that wouldn’t be as harsh as permanent dyes but still gave me noticeable color, and Clairol Natural Instincts delivered perfectly. The shade I chose, medium brown, turned out rich and glossy without looking flat. It covered my grays beautifully and left my hair looking fresh and healthy. I also appreciated that the formula didn’t have a strong chemical scent—just a light, pleasant fragrance. After a few weeks, the color faded gradually, leaving my hair with a soft, natural tone. It’s now a staple in my hair care routine!

Natural Instincts FAQ

How long does Natural Instincts hair color last?

Because it is a demi-permanent formula, the color typically lasts for up to 28 shampoos before gradually and evenly washing out without leaving a harsh root line.


Does Natural Instincts cover gray hair completely?

It blends away grays seamlessly for a natural look, offering up to 100% gray blending, though it may not provide the opaque, total coverage that a permanent hair color would on stubborn or entirely white hair.


Is this hair color safe to use on chemically treated or relaxed hair?

Yes, the zero-ammonia, gentle formula is safe for processed hair, but it is highly recommended to wait at least 7 to 14 days after a relaxer or perm before applying the color, and to perform a strand test first.


Can Natural Instincts lighten my natural hair color?

No, demi-permanent formulas do not contain ammonia or heavy developers required to lift or lighten your natural pigment; it can only match your current shade, darken it, or add dimensional tones and shine.


How long should I leave the mixture on my hair during application?

The standard processing time is 20 minutes, but if you have stubborn grays that you want to blend more effectively, you can leave it on for an additional 5 minutes (up to 25 minutes total).
