Q: Is it good for relaxing hair?

submitted by Brownie - 2 years ago
  • A: Hello! John Frieda's Precision Foam Colour is a foam hair color that locks in salon-quality color and freshness, and not a relaxer product. Please call us with other questions at 800-521-3189.

    submitted byJohnFriedaExpert - 2 years ago
  • A: Hey, Coloring your hair right after this type of treatment can easily over process, over lighten, or make your hair more susceptible to damage. We recommend waiting two weeks between your chemical treatment and coloring your hair. For real-time answers to all your beauty questions, use the “Chat with a Virtual Beauty Consultant” button on any beauty product page.

Q: Hi I have dark long brown hair with gray hairs and I would like to know if this product is going to be burning or have that strong smell like other ones? I am looking at the espresso color.

submitted by Butterflybelle23 - 5 years ago
  • A: Hello Butterflybelle23! This hair color does have a strong scent. As far as reactions go, we recommend conducting a patch test to be sure, before applying all over. Hope this is helpful!

  • A: No burning & the smell is lighter than most. But beware, these products pull red VERY easily. Even the ones advertised as B or G.

Q: Hello is this product safe for natural chemical free african american hair? I do not want a product that will straighten my hair. Want to keep my curl pattern. Thanks

submitted by Kay - 1 year ago
  • A: Great question Kay! Some may see an impact, some may not. Hair treatments relying on a chemical reaction (permanent color, relaxing, perming) could impact curl pattern depending on the person, hair type, and product use.

    I love this hair color!! It is simple to use. The foam keeps it from being messy plus there’s enough conditioner to use on my shoulder length hair 1-2 times a week for at least a month after I color it. I have used different brands and different shades of brunette hair color for years and have found the perfect one for me. I will never use a different hair color again.

    Jacey_123 - 1 month ago, Verified purchaser
    I ordered the 4 deep dark brown color, wanting to be a darker color than my 5-ish brown tone that was getting brassy from sun exposure. I also have really tough grays that my stylist has to take extra steps to cover. My grays were showing early and I was hoping to skip the stylist this time and gave this a whirl. I did extra time on my roots and extra time for the grays and probably extra time still as I went through with a brush for my roots. This did NOT cover the grays. This seems to have a lot of tones to it, showing highlights of red where I was brassy. It’s surprisingly close to the dark tones in my deep walnut dresser. While it is pretty enough of a color, I was trying for a deep darker true brown, and that’s not really what I got. Given this is 1 hr post-color and the color will likely lighten over time, it’s probably too light for my expectations. However, I can say that this is definitely not a cooler tone and is pleasant against my fair-neutral skin, even if a bit too red for me; I wish it had covered my brassy tones better. I also saw a lot of shed when I colored, especially for having showered this morning and already removed much of my standard shed. If you don’t have gray yet and you are thinking about going dark brown but are hesitant, this may be the brown for you, but it’s not for me.

    DO NOT BUY!!!!! Causes hair loss!! I’m sick with regret and hope I can save someone from going through what I’m experiencing. I used this product twice and didn’t connect until the second time that it was causing massive shedding like I’ve never seen before, with no end in sight. Please read this and stay away! I wish I had looked at reviews at other places where many have shared their experiences before I used it. RUN AWAY!!! The allergic reaction and hair loss is not worth the risk!

    This hair dye is amazing. I’d say maybe a slight learning curve, but very easy to figure out. The color payoff is better than any box dye I’ve used and it’s not as messy as cream color. The dye does not stain skin as much as other dyes either. I will be repurchasing again and again. If you need to know how many boxes to purchase based off of hair length/coarseness, my hair is about 30" long, medium thick 2b/2c and 2 boxes were more than enough! This is also great considering that most cream colors I would need 3 boxes.

    There is NO WAY the good reviews for this product are real. I’ve been coloring my hair at home every 6 weeks for nearly a decade. I bought this brand of dye bc mine was out of stock and it’s hands down the worst hair dye I’ve ever used. It’s messy, the gloves are huge and slip all over the place, the foam falls everywhere, it’s impossible to get close to the roots around your face without getting dye all over your skin, it didn’t cover grays well despite leaving it on for the recommended time, my list goes on and on. I have nothing good to say about this product and I will never use it again.

    The color itself looked great when it was done after covering faded red hair. You can see the red show through a little bit (which is expected because it never leaves your hair!) but it does still look dark brown and it looks good too. The only complaint i have is that it didn't foam up in my hair. I always buy two boxes just in case one isn't enough, and I used both because my hair was not foamy like the instructions implied. Not sure if I'd use this for anything other than dark brown, but my hair was incredibly soft and shiny afterwards. (Btw, I am not covering any grays, so I'm not sure how that would work.
