Overtone, a hair-dye company known for its pigmented, semi-permanent conditioner dyes, recently changed the game by releasing a new line of hair dye specifically formulated for brunettes. The hair dye requires no bleach and no lighteners to achieve color, which is usually what holds brunettes back from dyeing their hair, as these chemicals can cause damage when used frequently or incorrectly. Producer Nico Reyes, who has never before dyed her curly brown hair, tests the new Overtone formula out for herself to see if it's actually effective in coloring her dark a brighter red shade.

Nico Reyes, It feels like glue.. I hope I look just like Mary Jane after this., I feel like everyone in the world is dyeing their hair right now, and I've never done anything even close to permanent to my hair.. There was that one time I did experiment with some temporary green dye., I feel like I look like the Joker.. It didn't look good.. It did not look good., But today, I'm gon na be trying out Overtone specifically their line for people with brown hair.. It'S so interesting to me.. They made this hair line for people with darker hair color. So that way you can skip the entire bleaching process, which can be really damaging. The darker your hair, is., Their hair dye, is made in a conditioner form that leaves a semipermanent color behind. They've, never done anything for people with darker hair till now. So I'm interested to see how this formula's gon na do because my hair isn't black, but it's like pretty close to it. We're near black. Black adjacent.. I do think that they do a good job of managing your expectations for something like this., Because they have little charts on their website that show like, if you have this hair color. This is what you can expect from the dye, and this is what it's gon na look like afterwards., So I have a feeling that this is gon na, be more of like a reddish tint.. Oh my God, I didn't even tell you guys I'm doing red.. It'S red. [, gasps ]. This looks like ketchup., [, laughs ]. This looks like straight-up ketchup, tomato paste. Ooh. It smells good though., It smells minty.. I think, because I am a hair-dyeing newbie, I'm gon na phone, a friend and have my director Nic, who has dyed his hair in the past about a million times kind of help me out in this process and tell me what I'm doing wrong.. Ok Nic. What is my first step? Please help me. Nic, So the first thing you wan na do is you probably wan na actually like apply a very, very thin layer of Vaseline around the framing of your face. Nico, OK. Nic And your hairline.. It might make you break out., [, Nico, groans, ], But it'll be worth it. I promise because Nico Will it Nic? You don't want stained skin., You kind of look like those girls from ``, The Goblet of Fire.'' Nico, Oh my God, one of the French women. What are they called? Oh, my God, all the people who love `` Harry Potter'' are about to bust. My face. Nic Yeah. Definitely bunch up one side. ,'Cause we wan na do one side at a time., But also since your hair is very thick you're gon na wan na do like small sections at a time., Because you wan na properly saturate your hair in the dye. Nico, Gloves., [, laughs ]. They actually come with gloves, and I thought it was so cute. This little glove, packet., I'm stressed. You're, just sitting there smiling and I'm gon na cry in two seconds.. I don't like how it feels.. I hope I look just like Mary Jane after this. Nic, You're gon na look like Wendy. Nico Wendy from the Wendy's sign. Can I get at least a hot redhead? I feel, like everything, feels super squishy and saturated right. Now. Nic, That's good. Nico And I look great. Nic. So, if you're, confident with the saturation of it, I would take your gloves off and immediately start wiping off the areas of your skin that have dye on it. Nico, OK. Nic To prevent it settling into your skin in any way. Nico, OK. [ laughing ]. Oh, my God., I look like a gumdrop head.. No, you know who I look like Heat Miser, [ air horn blows ]. Do you remember him Ooh? Can you set a timer? I forgot. Nic? Oh sure. Nico. Let'S do 20 minutes.! Ok! So now I'm in my shower., It's very loud in here.. Sorry, if I'm screaming., But I'm gon na rinse this dye out and then use the Overtone Red for Brown, Hair, conditioner, so it'll deposit, maybe a little bit more color for like the most color payoff.. Let'S see how easily this stuff comes off of my hair., Oh my God, [ groaning ], So I'm actually really happy with how this color came out. Or tint. I should say.. It says that if I need the extra boost of color, I can go back into the coloring conditioner dye it all over again and see how it looks after that.. But I think I should be OK with the daily conditioner, which is also red to kind of keep up the color in my hair, already. I'll check back in with you guys after a week to see how it looks after my first shampoo and how well this Hair is holding up., So it's been a week since I dyed my hair with the Red Overtone for Brunettes and I really haven't noticed any change in the color.. It'S still very hard to see, but I will be including photos so that you can get a closer look at the actual tint. That'S in my hair right now. Today is going to be the day that I shampoo, for the first time. Shampoo, usually like, weakens hair dye and makes it look a lot less vibrant. So I will be trying out Overtone's companion conditioner, that they give you so that you can use it to keep up with the color when it does actually start to fade.. So we're obviously in my shower. And I'm gon na start off with my normal shampoo. Right now. I'Ve been using this Briogeo, Be Gentle, Be Kind the banana one just'cause. It smells really good.. It kinda smells like banana Laffy Taffy and I love that.. Here'S the conditioner.. This is what it looks like.. So this is the Overtone Red for Brown Hair daily conditioner.. It looks a lot like the dye.. It'S just like bright red super opaque.. I think that there's just less dye in their daily conditioner than there is in the normal conditioning. Dye., It's all very confusing, yet very simple., I'm just bad at explaining things.! Ok, so I combed it all out and now all we have to do is rinse.. So here's my hair after I shampooed it for the first time and I used the daily conditioner. And I feel like you - can definitely see more of the reddish tone. Now that I used the daily conditioner. And it really gave it that extra boost of color that I needed to show you that something is happening on my hair. I will say the daily conditioner is definitely not as hydrating as my normal conditioners, are.. Obviously, not. There's like a ton of dye in it., But I do think that for a product that is dyeing your hair and is so heavy on the dye, this really isn't bad.. My hair feels slightly dry, but it doesn't feel like damaged.. It doesn't feel crunchy or crispy. It just kind of feels a little bit frizzy a little bit dry. And those were issues that I had before Overtone and I'm sure I'm gon na have them after Overtone so.. If you're, somebody like me who kinda just wants to try out a new color, but you have dark hair and you're terrified of bleaching. This is a very specific scenario, but I feel like a lot of people relate to this. Try this kit out., I feel like it's definitely worth the money, because it does what it says, and they kind of are very upfront with you from the beginning. What to expect with your hair color that you have currently

Comments

Fun Size: I've discovered that when products claim they've made something for "brown hair", what they really mean is, "level 7, a.k.a. dark blonde." Anything darker than that, the dye will make your hair look black or near black, with a very faint sheen of the color you want that's only visible in sunlight. At least this one showed some realistic results.

dee!: This product is interesting, especially for an Asian like me, who has dark hair and love to dye it. But I’m wondering what’s the difference between this and Manic Panic then? If in the end, without bleach, all you can see is a tinge of colour. I’ve tried Manic Panic’s pink dye without bleaching and the result is just like that. A tinge of colour that can only be seen when I’m under the sun. Especially since they specifically marketed it as hair dye for brown hair or something like that.

Kristen Gallagher: I’ve used overtone for over a year and I love it. My best advice is to leave the conditioner on a LOT longer than recommended. I leave it on for upwards of 2 hours. There’s no actual dye in it, so it won’t harm your hair to leave it in that long. Also, the color for brown hair line really pops in the sunlight.

Anton Söffing: Vaseline will NOT break you out. Its molecules are way too big to clog pores. Vaseline and other mineral oil based ingredients are actually one of the safest things to put on skin, which is why its in a lot of products dermatologists recommend.

Dymond Kitty: This is actually perfect for me. I don't want an opaque bright effect just a tinge of color that can be seen at times without any bleach or really harsh effects.

InternetLoser.: Even though the color isn't a big change it looks so good on you.

GG: That color is so gorgeous on you, looks like a dark chocolate cherry.

Toni Lacey: Your hair looks so bouncy, full of life and healthy!

Carrot: I want to know... A. Does the dye stain your shower? B. Do you have to shower with cold water to make the dye stay in your hair? C. Does it rub out and stain your pillowcases and backs of your shirts? D. Will the dye come out if I straighten or curl my hair with an iron? I'm asking these things based on awful previous experiences

🏺Claudia Mariani D’Amato🏺: Oh my gosh it looks so so good!! Seriously I wasn’t expecting it to look so natural and nice. This is the prettiest burgundy hair color I’ve seen in a long time and it looks excellent on your skin tone

Is At Sea: Her curls are BEAUTIFUL!! I’d love to get a wash and go routine from her!!

Real & Bitchy: With how expensive it is, sadly I don’t think it’s worth it. I tried the purple for brown hair, and like many other comments say, it’s a tint of color in the sunlight while darkening your hair. Plus it washes out super quickly since it’s semi-permanent. Would much rather just bite the bullet and use box dye and spend the extra money on conditioning treatments and upkeep afterwards....

Gardener Gray Farm: Thank you for this review. I don't really mess with my hair but have had an itch for something new lately. I think this is perfect. You look fabulous by the way!

Alicia Morris: I love her hair. I have naturally curly hair too. I need to get mine cut so bad. I cut it similar to hers. But my hair is so long because of covid.

Tabitha: Gosh her hair texture is amazing

Steph W: I really like the warmth the coloring system provides to your hair. It suits you!

Katrina Starks: You can leave in for 45 minutes for a better effect!

xMourningStar: Surprised it did anything on hair that dark. So that's cool, it worked.

Daphney Ward: Curlsmith has a “colored” styling gel in 5 colors....try one of those (they wash out in one wash too)

Cc: Natural beauty! Love your look. The red made a nice lil change

Rania Riffat: Omg ive had a similar experience I dyed my hair purple a few weeks ago and it wouldn’t show normally but sometimes under some light it would be visible. And do I regret doing it? No because it felt good yes because it didn’t show and Laos because I did the exact COLOR CHARLI DAMELIO did

Lenka: Try henna. It's not damaging. And it lasts. And Your hair will be looking more healthy. Just one thing - on darker healthy hair it looks mostly red - similar tone, that You have now. (I speak about pure henna, not mixed with indigo.)

Ray A E Parker: So sad this isn't available in the UK because I have medium brown hair and desperately want a bright purple but my mum says she doesn't trust me/herself bleaching my hair, it might go all straw-like and horrible, and nowhere professional will do it atm because of coronavirus.

BreakTheWall.mp3: They market this product as something revolutionary, meanwhile it works just like every hair dye without bleaching component. My less than 2 dollars costing mask does the same

Mariana Hecksher Oliveira: shes literally so freakin cuteeee

Temsulong Lemdur: The results are so sad. I think I'd get the same results with a regular burgundy hair dye.

Major Robinson: I used the orange on my light brown hair that was faded and it's so pretty! I'm like brown hayley williams

Melissa Joe: Just wondering... do they have a white (or a super light colour) which you could use as a base so that a second colour on top of it pops?

Sarah Nova: Don’t use overtone. I used brown on my light brown hair and it ruined the color of my hair. Some of the colors don’t come out all the way. It turned my hair a green tint then a yellow ish tint and never came out all the way.

April: Is that a dungeons and dragons tee? YAS
