NUTRISSE ULTRA CRÈME 61 - Light Extra Ash Brown
$10.99 MSRP
About This Shade
Garnier Nutrisse hair dye shade 61, Light Extra Ash Brown (Mochaccino), is our light brown shade with cool tones—providing 100% gray coverage. This ash brown hair dye delivers a cool light brown color that helps counteract brassy red/orange undertones while providing full gray coverage.
Is This Shade Right For Me?
Choose 61 Light Extra Ash Brown if you want a cool light brown hair dye that covers grays and mutes warmth for a mocha-toned result. Light Extra Ash Brown hair dye is best for anyone with natural hair between medium blonde and dark brown. For a darker shade, try 51 Medium Ash Brown (Cool Tea). If you'd like to remain in the light brown range but would like to try other reflects and tones, there are many shades to choose from including 60 Light Natural Brown (Acorn), 63 Light Golden Brown (Brown Sugar), and 66 True Red (Pomegranate). Pick 60 Light Natural Brown for a neutral light brown color, 63 Light Golden Brown for warmer golden reflects, 51 Medium Ash Brown for a deeper cool brown, and 66 True Red for a vivid red tone.
We do not recommend shade 61 on hair dyed to 40 Dark Brown (Dark Chocolate) or darker; the color result will be limited. For tailored advice, use our Shade Selector Tool.

Q: Why did you change the #50? I hate red! Natural brown should not have any red in it. Red is next to impossible yo get rid of. It will take forever to grow this shade out. Not soft and silky anymore either. When a color is perfect, what screw it up?
