About This Shade: 51 Medium Ash Brown (Cool Tea)
Garnier Nutrisse shade 51, Medium Ash Brown (Cool Tea), is a medium brown shade with cool, ashy tones—providing 100% gray coverage.
Is This Shade Right For Me?
• Natural Hair: Medium Ash Brown is best for anyone with natural hair between dark blonde and darkest brown.
• Exploring Other Shades:
• If you prefer a lighter shade that reflects similarly, try shade 61 Light Extra Ash Brown (Mochaccino).
• For a darker shade, try shade 415 Soft Mahogany Brown (Raspberry Truffle).
• If you'd like to remain in the medium brown range but would like to explore other reflects and tones, there are many shades to choose from including 50 Medium Natural Brown (Cool Tea), 53 Medium Golden Brown (Chestnut), 535 Medium Mahogany Brown (Chocolate Caramel), and 56 Medium Reddish Brown (Sangria).
• Color-Treated Hair Considerations: For anyone who currently has color-treated hair, there are special considerations for the color result you can achieve. Because of this, we do not recommend shade 51 for hair that has been previously colored 30 Darkest Brown (Sweet Cola) or darker.
