Written by the company

At eSalon, we believe that you should never have to fit in a box—so we made a box that fits you. Led by a team of real-life colourists at our Los Angeles Headquarters and UK facility, our award-winning custom hair colour takes into account your unique needs to create your colour, your way. Similar to the salon experience, each bottle of hair colour starts with a consultation. By taking our quiz, our licensed colourists get to know you and your colour goals before crafting a completely customised hair dye, made-to-order just for you. From the name on the bottle to the personalised instructions, we’re revolutionising at-home hair colour and taking things to the next level by giving you access to a personal colourist at every step along your colour journey. Whether you want to adjust your shade (our patented customisation technology can adjust your hair colour down to a ¼ of a shade) or want to learn how to get the best grey hair coverage, our professional colourists are here to help. It’s this attention to detail that has allowed us to win seven Allure Best of Beauty Awards and three Readers' Choice Awards to date. Over our 10 years of experience, we’ve also been able to craft 310,000+ unique, salon-quality hair colours and shipped over 12.2 million orders to clients across North America, the UK, EU, New Zealand, and Australia. In addition to our custom Colour Set, we offer professional-grade hair care (like shampoos, conditioners, stylers, and hair masks), salon-inspired tools (like application brushes and capes), and innovative colour care (like toning treatments and at-home highlighting kits). Connect with a colourist today and start crafting your unique shade.

You should never buy it

I’ve decided to give that service a chance, but you should be very careful and I’ll tell you why.
All of this “we’ll create your own unique color for you, our colorist will reach you out if there’ll be any questions” is just a marketing bullsh**.
When I’ve made my order, I clearly stated in the notes, that I want my ginger color just a little bit brighter and what’s more important I want it to look natural. When I got my box, I found out, that there’s two completely different colors. First one is 70% blonde+15% ginger+15% red, and the second one 80% ginger+20% red. I asked the support, why is that (I ordered only one color) and if the second color will be enough to cover my whole length. They were hesitant to answer, I even had to threaten them with a lawyer to have my answer, but I finally got it. They’ve said, that two different colors somehow should make my color even (???) on the whole length, if I would color different parts of my hairs with two different colors. And also, that the second colors alone should be enough to cover it all. So I took the second color, the one that I really wanted, and applied it.
When I looked at it in the mirror after I was crying, absolutely devastated. The beautiful, naturally looking ginger I had before was gone. Now I look like a daughter of clown Pennywise and Little Mermaid, or like I’m wearing a really cheap wig of a chemical grapefruit red color. And obviously the amount of second color in the box was not enough to cover the whole length, they either lied to me on purpose about that or just unprofessional scammers. So there’s like several different tones I have on my hair, it looks like a complete mess.
All of this leads me to a conclusion, that this is just a bunch of scammers, using marketing to sell you their sh*** hair dye. There’s no real colorists behind that, best case scenario it’s just some random people mixing random chemicals for your hair. Don’t make the same mistake, as I did, don’t trust them.

Hi, thank you for sharing your experience with us. We’re truly sorry that our color did not meet your expectations and to hear how disappointed you are.
We'd like to inform that we craft every shade according to each customer's hair, needs and goals and that the color for the roots may be different compared to the one for the ends. This is because the lengths of the hair have been previously colored, while the roots have your natural hair color.
We also apologise for any delay in replying to you, we in no way wanted to sound unprofessional, and we aim to reply to each customer as soon as possible; we strive to do better.
Of course, we welcome you to contact us at anytime at +44 (0) 800 808 5400; we'd love to assist you further and see how we can improve your experience with us.
Again, we thank you for sharing your comment with us, and we apologise for the disappointing color result.

Perfect coverage..Perfect Colour

This colour was so easy to use, and so handy having everything you need in 1 box. I'll never go back to salon prices, amazing colour and coverage. It blended seamlessly.

Very disappointed with your product.

I opened my dye to apply to my hair when it exploded covering everything in my bathroom. I never experienced this before just one mega explosion. Now my bathroom needs a complete paint job as the dye is impossible to remove. I am very disappointed with your product.

Perfect colour everytime…

I use the esalon's colour to do my roots and highlights between salon's visits and my hairdresser thinks the colour is as good as hers! I recently changed my hair colour and my esalon stylist made the changes for me. It's a brilliant service. I can keep a perfect hair colour for much less than in salon price.

eSalon-Good products, service, and savings

eSalon has been the best decision I have made in a long time. The color is always spot on and I am never disappointed in any way. I have saved myself thousands of dollars over the last several years working with eSalon. The website interface is easy to use and I can postpone or cancel orders at any time.

I cannot say enough good things about this. Trust them and yourself.
