In this article, we’re going to list the best hair dyes as well as what are the top hair dye brands as well as what to know about side effects.

Let’s talk a little about the best hair dyes. What you want to do is choose a color that is close to your natural hair color.
First off, let’s take a look at some of the best hair dye brands based on customer reviews. These are in no particular order, but rather based on Amazon reviews:
Of course, a brand is only as good as your experience with it. With that being said, let’s cover some of the best hair dyes on the market for DIY colorists.
One of the top ones in sales is the Garnier Nutrisse permanent color cream. This particular dye is long-lasting and will leave your hair violet with a golden hue.
The truth is that the best hair dye for you is one that doesn’t break you out. Try it out on a small portion of your hair a day or two before you use it to see if you’re allergic.
After you strap up with your gloves (yes, gloves) and protect your shoulders and floor from dye, you’ll want to get the following supplies ready:
After you’ve prepared your supplies, it’s time to dye your hair. Here are the best products, according to real-life reviewers who’ve used them:
Here’s what one Amazon reviewer says about this product: “I’m really loving the colour.”
Here’s what one Amazon reviewer says about Just 5 hair dye: “Color does hold for 6 weeks. No stains or discoloration on the skin. I have been using this product for the past 3 years.”
When it comes to box hair dyes, here are the best ones, according to real-life reviewers:
Here’s what one Amazon reviewer says about Clairol Nice’N Easy hair dye: “I’ve been using this product for years and have been extremely happy. They have now changed the product. The color came out several shades darker than it usually does (my husband commented on it, and he never notices anything!).”
Here’s what one Amazon reviewer says about Clairol Professional Texture & Tones hair dye: “It depends on how vibrant you want the color. Also, the density of your hair will play a big role. I’d get more then one and return any that I haven’t used.”
Here’s what one Amazon reviewer says about Schwarzkopf hair dye: “I like it. I am gonna buy again. I find it suit to my hair. I usually have grey hair that is why i always need color stuff and I found this.easy to mixed and the smell is not bad.a bit of menthol feel unlike others coloring stuff feels like burning the scalp.So its very good.”
Here’s what one Amazon reviewer says about Garnier Nutrisse hair dye: “Fades fairly quickly, but beautifully. Hair was bleached beforehand. Will probably purchase again. Doesn’t transer too much after 2-3 washes. Was prettty purple when initially dyed, faded to pink, then rose gold, then to a light gold with a rose tone.”
Many hair dye products cause unwanted side effects from rashes to hair loss. One of the main reasons for this is that ammonia is a main ingredient in many hair dyes.
For that reason, what you want in a hair dye is one without ammonia or peroxide. Look for brands that are certified organic and are 100% natural for your hair.
That way, you won’t have to worry about any side effects.
If you want to try grape shades in your head, here is the best purple hair dye:
Here’s what one Amazon reviewer says about Keracolor purple hair dye: “Love how healthy this made my hair feel and the color is gorgeous!”
Here’s what one Amazon reviewer says about Joico purple hair dye: “Yes. First time I dyed it we left it in for over 3 hours. It took very well. Now we do 1 1/2-2 hours to redye and it still works nice. My hair is pretty healthy.”
If you want to know what your local drug store has to offer when it comes to hair dye, here are the typical brands:
Here’s what one reviewer says about ONC Natural Colors hair dye: “Yes this is PPD free and it is natural as it gets. The reason its much healthier than any other color in the market is because its pH value is around 8.5.”
Here’s what one reviewer says about L’Oreal Paris hair dye: “This is the best hair color for me. It’s brown but not too dark, so my grays look like I got caramel highlights. I bought this in store once, but have not been able to find it since, so I’m glad Amazon had it. My hair is shiny and healthy. The only thing is I would recommend everyone to purchase a box of gloves to use instead of the ones that come with this kit, as they are very cheap and not stretchy so they may not fit. I actually asked my doctor and she gave me a few pairs at no charge.”
Here’s what one reviewer says about L’Oreal Paris Hair Color Root Cover Up Hair Dye: “You literally have to spray most of the top of your hair because the spray is strong. You cannot spray around your face, side and hairlines without getting it on your skin, It is hard to remove from skin. You cannot spray it onto a hair coloring brush and brush it on; it just stays on the brush.”
If you’re going to color your hair, please read reviews about the product so you know what you’re getting. The last thing you need is a bald (purple) head with a rash!
