Kristin Ess Hair Copper Penny Gold Hair Dye Hair Gloss - Red, Auburn + Strawberry Blonde Hair - Anti Brass + Shine Boosting + Deep Conditioning Treatment for Women - Vegan - Phthalates + Paraben Free

Easy to use in shower, gave the color I was looking for on auburn hair. Gave me the perfect copper, brighter color I was wanting.

i use this to refresh my strawberry blonde and it has that good red/yellow ratio that isn’t fire engine red like the depositing conditioner from kristin ess, good color for the price point and i’ve rebought more than once!

Definitely makes my hair very soft and my natural color pop a bit. Color doesn’t last too long, but the smell is a bit strong for me and lingers for several days.

Okay so I used a mix of Overtone’s Ginger and Honey Blonde for ever to get a slightly more vibrant ginger color from my natural ginger, until they discontinued Honey Blonde. Then I went to Keracolor’s Copper and Honey, but the price for the honey recently skyrocketed from like $20 per 33oz bottle to nearly $60! I also had a lot of trouble with both transferring on my pillows or knit hats, even when I wasn’t sweating and my hair wasn’t wet, and the color faded quickly with washes.I was really nervous to try the Kristen Ess Copper Penny, especially because I was only buying the 1 bottle and not mixing anything since I’m sick of doing that. I was nervous it would come out orange like the other two brands when not mixed. But, it’s winter and I’m not going out much so I figured what do I have to lose.When I first saw the color in the bottle I was very nervous- it was a DARK orangey color. It also had an odd lemony chemical smell which I didn’t love. The texture is definitely runny, im used to a thicker conditioner like consistency.The only bottle was plenty for my very thin hair, but if I had any more hair than I do I would need at least another bottle to get full coverage. I did apply it dry even though the directions say to do it wet, so that probably affected how far it went. For my hair applying glosses dry helps them last a lot longer.I left it on for the recommended amount of time, and rinsed with cold water. It took for EVER to rise out fully, which surprised me, but no biggie. I used an old orange pool towel to dry, and some color definitely transferred to that, but once it was dry I was OBSESSED. It’s the perfect shade of ginger for me. I’ve gotten tons of compliments on it from family and friends.I try not to wash my hair too much in general, but I have washed it once pretty thoroughly with hot water since applying. It did transfer to the towel again, but I don’t notice any difference in the color of my hair since then. It also has not transferred to any of my sheets or anything while I’m sleeping- Mega win!!My hair is soft, shiny and feels very healthy. If you’re looking for a solid, decently lasting Cowboy Copper type color, Kristen Ess is where it’s at.

I’m a natural redhead, and my hair has gotten very washed out in recent years (due to age). I have never ever colored or treated my hair in any way. This was a huge step for me. I was nervous, but the instructions were very clear. I left it on my hair the entire 20 minutes. I was ecstatic with the results! While I think the first week or so way a little too golden/orangey, I think it’s just because my blonde whispies were now colored (and they’ve always been blonde). I only wash my hair once a week, so the color has lasted far longer than anticipated. I’m going on a month now, and it’s barely faded! I’ve gotten nothing but compliments.P.S. it must look natural, because my husband never noticed! When I finally told him, he just said it’s what he’s used to me looking like (we’ve been together 20 years)…

I have used this product twice. It's lasted about 4-6 weeks each time. I do have naturally red hair, but as I've gotten older, it's tone has changed and looks somewhat muted. This gloss really gives it a bright, vibrant tone. I love it, it's a great way to brighten it up sometimes and it reasonably priced and has not had a damaging effect on my hair thus far.

This product took my dull copper hair and brought it back to life. It looks like I just left the salon.The product is easy enough to use, but it is very messy. Also, I have very thick hair and I could’ve probably gotten away with half a bottle. I used the Kristin Ess shampoo and conditioner for color treated hair. 15 minutes was just right for the result I desired.

I read all of the reviews and watched several TikToks on this product. I did a sample strand, and the copper color seemed fine. So I decided to go ahead with the entire thing. I’m a natural redhead whose color has been fading. I’ve used color depositing shampoos and thought this gloss would help as well. The blonder streaks that frame my face are now carrot cartoon orange. 🤦🏼‍♀️ The rest of my hair is fine, but the parts around my forehead are embarrassing. It did add a nice shine, but this is definitely money wasted. I would skip this product if you have strawberry blonde in your hair.
