The Best At-Home Hair Color Kits

Salon-free and vetted by pro-colorists.



When it comes to dying your hair you should always trust the pros. We tapped color gurus Moiz Alladina (who counts Tilda Swinton and Gigi Hadid as clients), Rita Hazan (the wiz behind Beyoncé's signature golden blonde), and Simone Pearl Mangano (an NYC colorist known for giving the platinum touch) to give us insider tips on how to do a DIY job right, along with their favorite at-home kits, here.

Garnier Nutrisse Nourishing Color Crème
For blonde dye, Hazan prefers Garnier Nutrisse. "Always pick an ash or neural tone," she says. "Your hair naturally will pull warmth so this will reduce it a lot, unless you want a warm tone. Then choose something with gold in it."

Use "vegetable dye if you want something to richen (darken) your color." Hazan uses Natural Instincts from Clairol for semi-permanent jobs. Since the color eventually washes out, "you don't get roots" that need touch-ups.

Vidal Sassoon Pro Series
"Vidal Sassoon takes a little longer but the color is much more vibrant," Alladina says. Because of its lengthier process, "apply it to your roots and wait 20 minutes [before] you apply the color to the middle and ends." Added bonus: "The conditioner that comes with it leaves hair super shiny."
