Product Information
Garnier Nutrisse Ultra Crème 20 Soft Black hair dye (Black Tea) produces natural color results and provides 100% gray coverage. Its non-drip color crème formula works on all textures for hair that is silkier, nourished, and twice as shiny as when it’s uncolored and unwashed.
Fortified with ColorBoost technology, this permanent hair dye shade is deeply infused inside the fiber for richer, radiant, long-lasting color. All Garnier Nutrisse Ultra Crème hair color kits come with a double dose of nourishment: a fruit oil ampoule to add to the developer-color mixture and an after-color conditioner with five responsibly-sourced oils: avocado, olive, coconut, argan, and shea.
As a soft black hair dye, it is two shades lighter than 10 Black (Licorice) and one shade lighter than 11 Blackest Black. For best results, choose Ultra Crème 20 Soft Black hair dye if your natural hair is between light brown and black. This particular shade of Garnier Nutrisse hair dye is not recommended for color-treated hair because the results are unpredictable.
