Nutrisse Ultra Crème 70 is a permanent dark blonde hair dye from Garnier that nourishes as it colors, leaving hair silkier with 2x* the shine compared to uncolored, unwashed hair. Our ColorBoost Technology drives rich pigments deep into the cortex for 100% gray coverage and long-lasting, radiant color that typically lasts 4–6 weeks depending on wash frequency and hair porosity. The creamy formula is mixed with a fruit-oil ampoule and followed by a silicone-free after-color conditioner infused with five responsibly sourced oils—avocado, olive, coconut, argan, and shea.

*Compared to uncolored, unwashed hair

Note: Results and longevity can vary based on starting level and hair porosity; for the most natural hair dye result, choose a shade close to your current level (light blonde to medium brown).

Watch our how-to video starring Drew Barrymore, or follow the step-by-step process below:

1. PREP
Start with dry, unwashed hair. Perform an allergy test 48 hours before coloring. Drape a towel and put on gloves. Squeeze the color crème into the applicator bottle (developer), then add the fruit-oil concentrate. Replace the cap, cover the tip, and shake until fully blended.

2. APPLY & DYE
For all-over dark natural blonde hair: Apply at the roots in sections. (You can use the nozzle like a tail comb.) Work into your roots with fingers, then saturate the lengths and ends.
For a dark natural blonde root touchup: Separate hair into sections as you apply color to new growth, targeting any stubborn grays.

3. PROCESS
Clip hair up and process for 25–30 minutes (use the full 30 minutes for resistant grays).

4. RINSE, CONDITION, STYLE
Add a little warm water to emulsify, then rinse until the water runs clear. Apply the silicone-free after-color conditioner with five fruit oils and leave on 2–5 minutes. Rinse well, gently towel-dry, and style. No need to shampoo after coloring.
