Garnier Nutrisse Ultra Color R3 - Light Intense Auburn (Red Hibiscus) is a permanent light auburn hair dye with warm, intense, and ultra-reflective tones. This auburn hair color is an excellent option as a red hair dye for dark hair* (natural hair between light brown and the darkest brown).
Powered by Nutrisse ColorBond technology, the non-drip creme formula deeply infuses each hair fiber with high-contrast dyes to reveal bold color that stays fade-resistant for up to 8 weeks. The included ampoule contains grape seed oil to nourish as your color and lock in this vibrant auburn hair dye shade. The silicon-free conditioner is enriched with five sustainably-sourced fruit oils (avocado, shea, olive, argan, and coconut) for an after-color treatment that leaves your hair silkier, more nourished, and twice as shiny as uncolored, unwashed hair.
* This light auburn hair dye shade is not recommended for hair that has previously been colored medium brown and darker. Results can be overly intense on bleached and highlighted hair. Use our Shade Selector Tool to find the shade for you!

Im only 15 and my mom was superrrrr nervous putting in this color. We were both afraid of how it would turn out. but IT LOOKS AMAZING :) The only thing i would change is that the color bleeds... a whole lot. i wear a white school uniform. horrible mistake. its been alomost 3 weeks and the water in my color still doesnt run clear. im also too afraid to go swimming. other than that i get SO many compliments on it. Im dying it again soon :) it also fades too fast for my taste.

Turned my hair Black!!!!!
12 years ago
I purchased the B2R Dark intense burgundy hair color yesterday for the simple fact that I wanted a change. My natural hair color is medium to dark brown. This color says it is specifically for darker hair... I followed all directions as written in the box, washed the color off after 25 minutes and my hair is NOT "intense auburn" by ANY means... My hair is now BLACK! The only thing it turned even a hint of red it my scalp! I did not want my hair to be black. If I wanted black hair I would have bought black hair color! Plain and simple, I'm highly upset and now that my hair is black, there is nothing I can do without paying a professional to strip all color out of my hair. which I do not have the money to do... Please see the pictures attached below of before and after... Thanks..

Did almost nothing to my daughter's black hair. You could *kind of* see a burgundy tint in the sunshine.

Hi there sarakins, thank you for sharing your experience with us! We're sorry to hear that the BR2 - Dark Intense Burgundy didn't show up as vibrantly as you and your daughter hoped. Hair coloring is a fascinating science! When applying a burgundy shade to naturally black hair, the result is going to look more like a 'tone-on-tone' effect. Because black hair is naturally packed with deep pigments, it is difficult to lighten or lift the rich dark pigments enough to see the vibrant red and burgundy tones. That is why the beautiful burgundy shade is most visible when the light hits it in the sunshine!

Love this color! Never discontinue it please!!

Legitimately my favorite hair color of all time. Naturally medium brown hair and this color gives me the Perfect red. My one issue is it's so hard to find :'( the past few months it hasn't been in any of the stores near me and I can barely even find it online. When I find it I buy at least 2 to 3 boxes at a time and I think I had a breakdown last time I had to dye my hair a different color. Please never stop making this color I will go with it.
Yes, I recommend this product.

My favorite shade! I get SO many compliments from others about it, too. I love that it doesn't fade to copper like a lot of other reds do. Quite frankly, I am lazy and will let my roots grow out a looooong time past due. But even when I haven't colored in a few months I still loved the color
Yes, I recommend this product.

Conditioner not the same and hard to get out.
9 months ago
This color is good but the new conditioner container is not great. It’s hard to get the condition out.
I used to use raspberry but when the packaging changed recently, the colour was very different and looked more like firy red. This is why I’m now using cherry.
I just wished the conditioner didn’t change.

So not worth it!!
11 months ago
When Garnier first came out, I used their products exclusively because they left my hair soft and manageable, and their true red hair dye was a gorgeous color without orangey tints. I received a ton of compliments on it from hairstylists, too.
I was VASTLY disappointed that Garnier no longer carries that shade of red, and hoped that this Nutrisse R2 medium auburn would get me close to that shade of true fire red. And it didn't even come close!! Thanks for nothing, Garnier. Let me know if y'all decide to bring it back. Otherwise, your products are a huge waste of time and money!

No longer the same
a year ago
I have been using BR3 color for years, absolutely love it BUT as of lately something is wrong. I'm pretty certain the color dye has changed. It's alot lighter, not covering my grays & washes out within a couple weeks & I don't even wash my hair everyday. I noticed it the last time I used it, some grays weren't covered, figured it might have been me. I just dyed my hair again, & nope HUGE difference. I naturally have dark brown hair, tell me why my roots are lighter. So frustrated because it's my bday this wknd & now I'm going to have messed up hair.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Hi Oliveoil7! We apologize you were not satisfied with the results you achieved with Nutrisse Ultra Color, BR3-Intense Burgundy. We know how disappointing it can be to look forward to a new application of color only to find that your results are not what you expected. We do not recommend this shade for gray coverage. It is specifically designed for dark hair. To cover gray we recommend Nutrisse Ultra Color, 415-Soft Mahogany Dark Brown; this shade can be used to touch up the new growth. Your feedback is appreciated and will be shared with others in our company.

New formula is a disaster.

Whatever you did to change the formula, please please change it back. The new formula is awful. Too thick it dries on my hair and the color is now an orangey red instead of a true red. I’m going to have to find a new brand.

Breakage!!
a year ago
I am SO GLAD I did a test strip before dying my entire head. The color is beautiful but it WRECKED my hair!! Only left it in for 35 minutes - (you know it would be double that time if I let it sit after applying to my entire head) and my hair has broken and split in so many places. So so frizzy and I would’ve had a breakdown if my entire head turned out this way. I’ve used this brand in the past but the formula must’ve changed…Returning these immediately and do not recommend in any way shape or form!!
No, I do not recommend this product.

Too thick
a year ago
I used this product for years. This new formula is too thick. Too hard to get out of the mixing tube and too hard to get out of the applicator bottle. I had to take the top off of it and it made a mess, I can't precisely control it. You took a good product and ruined it.

Too Intense Red , not Auburn
a year ago
Just horrible. Did a root touch up and the top of my head and roots and front are bright RED, not auburn. The color did not take on the length and my hair is as stiff as straw. Now have to recolor with a brown I guess to tone it down and even it out. Have never had such a poor coloring experience and have been doing it myself for decades. Do not recommend.
No, I do not recommend this product.

I’ve been using Garnier Nutrisse hair color for over 20 yrs.The new formula is too thick. I immediately noticed the difference. This makes it much more difficult to get to the roots and the bottle gets clogged too. I’m disappointed because I love the color I use, but I may have to switch.
Yes, I recommend this product.

New formula is awful
a year ago
I have used this color for years and absolutely loved it. The formula has changed. The color isn’t the same, it dried mt hair out and the color was gloppy and didn’t cover well. Why would you change something that was already great to something awful. I will be finding a new hair color brand. I am so disappointed.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Really the the color in the sunlight.
a year ago
I really like this color on my hair. I have medium to dark brown hair, the hair dye is a bit subtle in normal lighting but really gets loud in the sunlight. I get a lot of compliments on my hair. I have used this product for years. The reason I gave this a 4 instead of a 4 is because sometimes when I purchase this produce it seems to be a little different each time. Last time it was like the color did not take at all, they time it is Fab’O.

Rockstar vibes!!! 😎🤘
a year ago
Long story short: this was my first time using your brand of hair color, (I used R3) (far from the first time during my hair in general though) and I so far have great first impressions of it! 😁 Shocked? Amazed? Stoked? Nah! Those are understatements, it gave my medium/light brown hair a very vibrant red result and even after the first wash? No noticable fading so far! I rarely leave reviews on anything but this brand was WORTH the review! 🤘😊
10/10 Definitely recommend!

Easy to use

I got my Nutrisse Ultra Color in Cherry Flamingo, it’s easy to use just follow the easy instructions on the box and don’t forget to wear gloves even though this box didn’t provide them. My hair actually looked like a cherry flamingo that’s how red it turn out long lasting after a few washes.

Love the way it came out :) (Just a heads up, my hair is a
Black, so I did have to bleach it. The color didn’t show up the first time I used this product on my dark hair. If your hair is black or dark brown, I suggest bleaching first or lightening your hair first, before you try to add color.)
Yes, I recommend this product.

Best 1 step fuscia out there!
2 years ago
This kit is consistent and the color accurate to the shades shown on the box. It's so easy to use and doesn't require additional bleaching. It is literally the best 1 step fuscia that I have ever used and absolutely LOVE IT!!!! I'm so sad I can't find it at any of my local stores anymore though. Not one. Not even at a Walmart.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Thank you for sharing your experience with the Nutrisse shade RP1 - Cherry Flamingo. We understand how disappointing this must be to not get the results you were anticipating. Cherry Flamingo should be a dark red hair shade formulated with unique pink-red reflects. RP1 is best for anyone with natural dark brown and light brown hair. We're sorry to hear it faded so quickly for you, but glad to hear you are liking the faded version!

Q: hello i brought this red hair dying kit. i have naturally black hair what color will it be if i used the dye without doing something else to my hair. do i need to dye it dark brown first then use the red kit? thank you
a year ago1 Answer
- A: Hello kandy72727. Great question! The R3 - Light Intense Auburn does not have enough lift or pigment to show up on natural black hair. Since dyed hair is even harder to lighten than natural hair, dying your hair another color first will make it even harder to see a lighter red result. Instead opt for a color with more red pigment that's made for use on natural black hair, like the Nutrisse Ultra Color R2, Medium Intense Auburn (Goji Berry). https://www.garnierusa.com/about-our-brands/hair-color/nutrisse-ultra-color/ultra-color-r2-medium-intense-auburna year agoHelpful?

3 years agoOriginally posted on RP1 - Cherry Flamingo
1 Answer
- A: Hi 1Firecracker. Thank you for reaching out to Garnier regarding the Nutrisse, shade Cherry Flamingo. Sometimes bright red colors can bleed a bit after freshly colored hair. It also depends on the porosity of your hair. If your hair is on the dryer side it tends to the hold the color and doesn't always rinse out completely. We suggest after shampooing and conditioning rinse your hair was cool water instead of warm water.3 years agoHelpful?
