FAQ

What makes Garnier Nutrisse 2.6 Ultra Dark Cherry Red special?

This shade gives rich, long-lasting colour with up to 100% grey coverage*. Its deep cherry tones add warmth and shine while keeping a natural look. The after-colour conditioner, enriched with five nourishing oils, leaves hair soft, silky, and protected against dryness for up to eight weeks**. *Instrumental Test **Consumer Test

How do I use Garnier Nutrisse at home?

Always do a patch test 48 hours before colouring. Mix the colour crème with the developer, apply from roots to ends, and leave for 25–35 minutes. Rinse until the water runs clear, then apply the nourishing conditioner. Follow the instructions inside the box for best results and to protect your scalp and hair.

Can it work on dark hair?

Yes. The 2.6 Ultra Dark Cherry Red shade is formulated to show visible colour even on naturally dark hair. If you want a brighter or lighter red tone, you may need to lighten your hair first. Always check the back of the box for the expected results based on your starting shade.

What are the main nourishing ingredients?

The formula is infused with avocado, olive, cranberry, and shea oils that deeply nourish hair during and after colouring. These oils help strengthen each strand, add shine, and leave hair feeling soft and hydrated. With Nutrisse, nourished hair means better colour results.

How long does the colour last?

The vibrant red tones stay visible for up to eight weeks* with proper care. Using a colour-safe shampoo and conditioner helps maintain shine and reduce fading. Try to limit heat styling and sun exposure to keep your shade bright for longer. *Instrumental Test

Fabulous colour and shine

3 months ago
Vibrant deep red colour, lasts for 2 months when using a colour shampoo and conditioner. Used this same product for over 10 years trying new ones along the way, but will always go back. The shine is amazing in the sunshine.

Yes, I recommend this product.

I have found my Perfect Shades ! 🥑

2 years ago
There’s limited products out there to dye naturally Black hair, I’ve tested a few and honestly this comes out on top. Colour: hints, more of a black blue. Red does reflect more in the light. Coverage: great for greys still. Prep and usage: easy to apply, nice smell, great consistency and no drips. Aftercare: hair feels nourished, great shine. Fade Resistant: every month #BetterColour

Yes, I recommend this product.

Did not disappoint!

2 years ago
I bought this dye as I wanted a change from my natural brown hair, it was so easy to apply and one bottle did my whole head of thick, mid-length hair which is never the case with other brands?! Obviously as you wash your hair, the colour does fade but it's been about 10 weeks since I used this and there is still some colour there, I have just repurchased to top the colour up and hide my roots!

Yes, I recommend this product.
