Is This Shade Right For Me?
B3 Golden Brown is best for natural bases from medium brown to black and is a bleach-free, high-lift brown hair dye for dark hair.

For alternative high-lift brown hair dye colors in the Ultra Color range, check out B4 Golden Mahogany Brown (Chocolate Caramel) or try our Shade Selector Tool to find your best shade.

If your hair is previously color-treated medium brown or darker, we do not recommend B3, as it may not lighten sufficiently. Results on bleached or highlighted hair will be very intense. Not recommended for bleached, highlighted, relaxed, or predominantly gray hair.

Application Option 2: Root Retouch

Begin with your roots by using the bottle to separate the hair section by section and applying the colorant. Leave the formula on your hair roots for 20 minutes, or 25 minutes if you have a lot of grays.

After the time has passed, apply the formula through the lengths and ends of your hair. Massage well to ensure the colorant is evenly spread. Leave the formula on your hair for an additional 5-10 minutes. Blend well where new growth meets previously colored hair to avoid banding.

Don't Forget to Rinse & Condition!

Whether applying Nutrisse Ultra Color on your full head or for a Root Retouch, your final step should always be to rinse and condition.

Apply water to your hair and gently massage to emulsify the colorant. Rinse thoroughly until the water runs clear. Apply the silicone-free conditioner and leave on for 2-3 minutes.

Rinse thoroughly and dry your hair. Style your hair the way you like it and admire your new radiant look.
