XMONDO Color Ash Blonde Color Depositing Mask & Semi-Permanent Hair Dye Super Gloss Infused with Bond Boosters for Nourishment, Revitalize & Repair, Vegan Formula, 8 Fl Oz

This stuff is GREAT. I’m naturally a 7n hair color, been dying it box dye black for YEARS and about 6 months ago decided to grow out the black hair and opt for something more natural, I recently applied this to my “virgin hair” and it’s just as dark as black box dye. I got the “blue black” and I will say, it is a true “blue black”. I was using Transylvania by arctic fox and it would wash out and turn the bath water blue, then purple, then green. This is straight up “blue” black. It sticks much longer to virgin hair than arctic fox and it smells AMAZING and I love how thick it is and that it comes in a tub that’s easy to just put a glove on your hands and dip your fingers in the tub and apply to your hair. No squeeze bottle to have to grab and squeeze once your gloves are covered In dye. I made ZERO mess with this dye as opposed to other dyes that come In squeeze bottles. I haven’t noticed any bleeding onto bedding or clothing. And the best part is your hair feels so healthy and soft once you wash it out! This is the best option for anyone with naturally light hair looking to grow out black box dye. No permanent damage from bleaching the color out and no lines of demarcation from just trying to grow it out without any dye at all. Once it’s all grown out you just keep washing and washing until all the hair color is gone.

I recently went from platinum blonde to lived in blonde with a natural 5/6 root. The contrast was really severe even with a perfect blend. I wanted to try something cool, but darker for fall without committing to something more permanent. This was the right choice! I've never been disappointed with anything from Xmondo thus far! I've actually been waiting for Brad to come out with the higher end colors of this mask! The 8A lived up to my expectations! It's really a classy beautiful ash without a severe gray tone. It looks very natural. Along with my seamless blend that's starting to grow out, it really shines! Before application I only shampooed my hair, and used a k-18 leave in. Once my hair was dry I worked from the nape of my neck up in small sections while using a detangling brush to make sure the product was going on evenly. It's really easy to apply, and the brush went smoothly through my hair without tangling. The product smells lovely too. I did twist it all up after application, and tucked it into a shower cap. I popped a beanie over it. I had to bake my sourdough bread, and walk my dogs along other evening tasks. I finished the application around 9pm then washed it out as directed with shampoo and conditioner. There's was barely any color rinsing down the drain. I'm not sure if it's that good for the vivids, but it didn't stain anything. The bonding tech in the product was very noticeable with how soft my hair felt while rising and shampooing. I added a picture of my hair wet and dry. The color was pretty true even when it was still wet. It felt amazing while I was drying my hair. The bonders were not slacking! It feels so silky soft! I baby my blonde but I still feel a difference after all is said and done. Smells lovely, too. I'm also going to be buying the xmondo fragrance spray. I just love the xmondo signature scents. All around it exceeded my expectations! Even with this rich color it still feels bright! I'm looking forward to seeing my hair in natural light in the morning! It's just a all around beautiful ash. I have very fair skin with dark blue eyes and this color just makes my look complete! My skin tone goes really well with this color and the blue in my eyes pops as much as it did when it was white white blonde! I am so very pleased!!

This review is specifically for the 5N /dark brown color Scent - same scent as other xmondo products. To me it is very jasmine perfume. I personally don’t care for the scent but some people love it. I can deal with it but could be a negative if you are sensitive to fragrance. Or it could be a huge plus if you love the scent Packaging - solid quality feel packaging. Nice wide opening allows you to easily access the product whether using a brush or hands. No need for color bowls. Value - I’d say this heavily depends on your hair. Short hair will probably get 3-5 uses. I have shoulder length hair and looks like I’ll get 2-3 uses. Longer hair may get one use or need 2 for really long hair. Feel - thick consistency. Nice that it’s not runny. You have good control over it. Like a thick conditioning mask Caution this WILL stain on contact. Make sure you are careful to cover the area you are working in and wear gloves. I have a dark tile shower but I would not be surprised if this would stain a white tub. I would def say have the bleach ready to go to clean up immediately. Color - obviously this will vary by person but here’s my experience. I have naturally dark hair (level 4). I also have some grey and bleached highlights. I have been trying to transition to a lower maintenance hair routine in the last 2 years and mainly using semi permanent color (professionally done). I’m not a stranger to dark hair. I’ve had level 3 color in the past (which for most people is essentially black). I am not a hairdresser but imo this is not a level 5 color as the name would imply. To me, getting my hair colored for 20 years on my base, this is a 3/4. It is very very dark, almost black. I’d strongly suggest doing a test strand if going too dark is a concern for you. There are a lot of green undertones so you will not have any warmth. Would I recommend? No. Do the test strand. For myself, I feel like I need something softer at this point. This color feels a bit harsh on me but it may be exactly what you’re looking for. Update - I tried the 5G color. Mistake! This has such heavy red tones that I look like red was my intended color. Extremely disappointed and will not be trying any more of these colors. I actually went to sally beauty to see if they had anything to help the heavy red brassy tones. Thankfully it’s semi permanent so I’ll be trying clarifying shampoo and blue shampoo to hopefully quickly reduce the unwanted color. Honestly the reaction when I told the lady I had used this said it all. Not recommended

I'm a fan of this gloss. The color was natural and gave me so much shine. Like its shiny. Smells good too. Just make sure you have clean dry hair before you start. No styling products.

Maybe it’s just my hair (fine and not highly processed), but this product left a horrible coating on my hair that made it look like it hadn’t been washed for a month. No shine. I had to wash and wash to get it out.

LOVE LOVE LOVE 100% recommend
