Not a complete fan of this! It is not a good value for the cost! Waste a lot of product and the machine and color itself are expensive and it doesn’t thoroughly get your roots. Very tine consuming’

I would pass
20 days ago
After a bit of trial and error, I was able to use the Colorsonic Hair Color Device. I have thin, fine hair but I found that occasionally the device would snag on my hair. I cannot imagine using it on hair with any sort of texture or body. It smelled like sulfur with the ammonia smell of hair dye. It did cover my grays but as you can see, it didn’t cover all of it and I dyed it twice. It was easy to clean. For the price of the machine and the cost of the dye, I wouldn’t recommend this. It was okay, but I felt it was best for a last minute root touchup and honestly for just that it’s not worth it. I didn’t feel like it was a good all over dye job, which is what I was looking for. It did cut down on time when dying hair, but it wasn’t worth it. I also found it extremely messy compared to regular box dye.

Great for people who can’t reach the back of their
21 days ago
This device is great for getting an even application. It was a little daunting at first but once I got started it was pretty simple. The color turned out great and my hair smells great and feels really healthy! I don’t think there was a lot of damage. It was pretty easy to hold and reach the back of my head and I liked that there was a setting to clean it. I just don’t really feel like I could see myself spending $100+ on this. I’ve never really felt like it was difficult to get hair dye on my hair and I always just go from dark brown hair to darker brown hair so I’ve never had to worry about my application being super even or perfect. I think maybe when people are doing a more dramatic color change this would help to make sure the color turns out evenly all over the head. Overall the device worked well and did what it was supposed to do and was easy to use.

Mess Free
22 days ago
Opening this package I was beyond excited! You do have to plan it first so plan ahead. It comes with clear instructions on how to use it and clean up is super easy. I love that there wasn’t hair dye all over the place, it was pretty much mess free for me. You also have control of the application button and how much product is coming out. There was enough product to cover from my roots to mid hair about 3 times until it was empty. I will say the only thing is I have a lot of grays and I may need a darker shade. The only area that didn’t really pick up color was the sides by my temple. Overall love this product and will continue to use it! Can’t wait to try other shades!

Bulky

This is a great tool for hair dying but it has some drawbacks. One: you do not have many color choices. Two: doing it by yourself is not as easy to get all the hair dye even. Although, it is not as messy. It's also very bulky to handle when doing sections. Other than that not a bad tool

WOW! Obsessed! Salon Quality Gray Coverage
a year ago
As a dark brunette who has been needing to cover her grays since 16 years old, I could not wait to try this! Going to the salon every 3 weeks can be tiresome and needless to say, expensive! So I jumped on the at home hair color train years and years ago. I buy pro color and developer on Amazon, measure everything, mix it up and then spend close to 2 hours from start to finish applying, processing and rinsing.. Doing this every 3 weeks has also been tiresome and most times, I don't have the time!! So when Colorsonic was introduced I knew I had to try it. From the moment I started application to the time I fully rinsed, it was only 35 minutes!!!
The device was super simple to prime and get started. Then, all you do is literally brush your roots... Transparently was a tiny bit skeptical about the saturation of color and if it truly saturated my roots like I do when I paint my roots... But I was proven wrong, my roots were saturated!! It looked like I painted my roots myself. After application, the device showed I still had a 3/4 full cartridge!
I could go on and on about this device, the process and how simple and efficient it has made my at home hair color. I am truly blown away and so thankful to have found something that makes my busy life that much more simple! Gone are the days that you will see any grays in my hair line and that makes me, a super self conscious about my grays at the age of 36, so happy!!!
This is a must buy, must try device and coloring system. Cannot recommend enough!!

Cartridge is not multi-use?
a year ago
Is there ANYONE out there that has re-used a cartridge? I have used 3 cartridges now for root touch-up. When I insert the (used) cartridge, the device tells me that the cartridge is more than half full. But when I start it, only the white developer comes out, no color. Same thing happened 3 times with 3 different cartridges, However, if I use a NEW, UNUSED cartridge, it works like it should. Not sure if the level indicator lights don‘t work as described, or the color dries up once seal is opened. Anyone else having this issue?
Also I have spent a long time on the phone with customer service. I got variable answers that did not help.

Easy to assemble and use, nice results
a month ago
My daughter Alyssah used the L'Oreal Colorsonic Hair Color Technology on her hair. She used it for all over color. Her roots were getting dark while her ends stayed light. The instructions were clear and simple to understand. The device is easy to assemble and use. She used it the night before a party. It evened out her hair color. She was pleased with the results. However, she'd prefer to go lighter when using this in the future. It was two in the morning when she tested it. It's surprisingly quiet when in operation.

Was pleasantly surprised. It’s so easy to use once you read the directions. The only thing is that I noticed sometimes if my hair had minute tangles, it would pull but other than that the color distribution and the ease to apply the color is amazing. Thank you Influenster for the opportunity to try this!

High-tech hair color that almost makes salon visit
a month ago
I tried the L’Oréal ColorSonic system with the 6 Light Natural Brown cartridge, and overall it’s a pretty impressive piece of beauty tech. The device mixes and dispenses the color automatically while the bristles help part and coat the hair evenly. The process feels surprisingly simple—almost like brushing your hair—so it takes a lot of the guesswork out of at-home coloring.
The shade turned out natural-looking with solid gray coverage, and the formula felt gentle compared to traditional box dyes. I also liked that each cartridge can provide multiple uses for touch-ups.
That said, it’s not completely foolproof. If you have very thick hair, you still need to work slowly to make sure every section gets covered evenly. The device is also a bit bulky to maneuver around the back of the head until you get used to it.
Overall, this is a clever innovation that makes DIY hair color easier and less messy—just not quite perfect yet. 4 stars.

Innovative

This truly a one of a kind, interesting product. Not only does its make dying your hair yourself easier, the product itself comes with everything you need. It's got the cleansing cartridge (USB charging cable) lengths adjuster for the head of the product but it even came with disposable gloves. I saw no irritation to my skin, and the smell was not overwhelming at all. The storage for this is great. Just put the product back in the ox it came with, slide the box top over and there ya go, simply store that way. Everything is in its place and no worry of things getting lost. I used the color dark blonde natural 7. Only complaint, is if I had it to do over I would have went a lighter color but otherwise. Amazing and innovative product

Great tool to gradually change my hair color.

I tried the L’Oréal Paris ColorSonic device because i wanted to start lightening the red tone in my hair. I used a blonde shade to slowly soften the red color .
The device made the process really easy and much less messy than traditional hair dye. The brush helps distribute the color evenly through the hair .
My hair looks softer in color now and the red tone is less intense, which is exactly what i wanted . Overall, it’s a very convenient way to color your hair at home .

Colorsonic delivers beautiful color but takes some
a month ago
I received this Loreal hair coloring device from Influenster in exchange for my review and it was a totally new thing for me as I typically use box dye or go to a salon. The product itself seemed easy enough to use, but once you open it and get into it, it's slightly more complicated than I thought it would be. The priming and starting of the product was difficult. I wasted the entire first cartridge as I thought I followed the directions correctly but instead of color coming out, it was mostly developer. Then it sort of just started acting finicky so I stopped and took the cartridge out and replaced with a new one and it was much better, so I'd make sure you have more than enough before beginning. As I started applying, the ease of distributing it thoroughly was a plus. You just comb it through the hair, but it takes a knack to start and stop the product coming out of the machine between strokes. I did make a bit of a mess at first but got better as I went through my hair. I like the different attachments for roots and ends, as I have longer and thicker hair. The color came out a beautiful and rich dark brown with no spotting or patches, and my hair felt and soft, not overly damaged as some coloring products can be. The instructions could have been more thorough on the starting and priming of the tool and I did find it obnoxious to have to keep pressing the button to distribute and letting go to stop just at the right time. The tool itself isn't overly noisy, but not quiet either. For the price point, it is relatively expensive but if you practice with it I think it could be a great alternative to going to the salon.

I was nervous about using this to dye my hair thinking it would be hard to use or uneven but it’s super easy to use. It literally does almost all the work for you with distributing the dye evenly in my hair. It’s not loud and it puts the dye in my hair evenly at a good speed. I have already bought more dye cartridges for future touch-ups.

Coloring hair just got easier!!
2 months ago
Device was easy to use, and I followed the instructions from the QR code and it was really helpful. The application was spot on and covered all of my grey’s. I didn’t feel any lumps of hair color on my scalp that usually leaves a weird color residue. The package includes the device, charging cable, gloves, and an extension for the color dispenser which I didn’t end up needing to use maybe somebody with way thicker hair than me would need it.
I was surprised as to how easy this was to cover my grey hair strands that keeps showing up on the root of my hairline. I only use the product near my scalp to cover the white hair strands and the device helped get all of them.
This is going to save me a lot of time and money cause I don’t have to go to the salon. I’m excited to not make a mess while coloring my hair at home.
The color from the cartridge is deep and my hair is very shiny since coloring it. The shine and color have lasted 2+ weeks and going strong still.

Unnecessary
2 months ago
Assembling the product was easy filling the instructions that come with it. You are supposed to then power it to allow the hair color to mix and flow. When I did this it kept flowing and a ton of dye was wasted. Applying it was easy. It is very quiet and does not feel hot to the touch. You simply press the button and guide it down and release. The lengths adapter is also helpful for the length of the hair. The actual hair dye is very runny and can be quite messy if you’re not careful. Cleaning the device was also easy to do with the cleaning cartridge. The actual result was a little underwhelming, it left several areas uncolored even though that area was very saturated in color. I love the idea of this product but I feel it is unnecessary. I would rather stick with the old school fail proof bottles. In my opinion it is not worth it.

A great at home option for gray coverage
2 months ago
I’ve been really impressed with the L’Oréal Color Sonic. It’s easy to use, mess free and makes root touch ups quick and convenient. The device mixes and applies the color evenly and the results look natural and well blended.
It is best for maintenance and gray coverage rather than major color changes and there is a small learning curve the first time. Overall, it’s a great at home option for keeping your color fresh between salon visits.

This new device is convenient for coloring the bac
2 months ago
I used L'Oreal Paris hair coloring device on my long hair, which is below my shoulder blades. I always color my hair at home, buying dye in the store and using a brush and comb. This new device is convenient for coloring the back, front, and behind the easily. However, it's inconvenient for coloring the lengths of my hair, as I squeeze out a lot of dye at once and distribute it with a lot of dye at once a wide-tooth comb. This device only squeezes out a small amount of dye, and it takes a long time to color the lengths. So, I started coloring my hair with the device and colored the front and back, and then I colored the lengths without the device. Overall, I liked coloring my hair with the L'Oreal Paris device, if I had shot hair. I wouldn't need anything else. The device is very easy to wash, so you can use it over and over again. The device changes via USB cable, so there are no wires to interfere with the hair coloring process. It can be used indoors or outdoors.

It just needs some…shaping. TO THE SALON!
2 months ago
Let’s start with what I like about this product.
I LOVE that it appears to be a serious attempt at making at home hair care and dyeing more sustainable and less wasteful. The only single use plastic used in the packaging is the thin plastic cover, the gloves, a few caps on the brush tips, the small pouch the dye is contained in, and the tape used to hold everything in place.
The rest of the package is biodegradable cardboard. Even the instructions are printed on a non-coated paper.
DIY kits can be incredibly useful and I’m glad that this is not one of those items.
I also love that it is effectively self cleaning and since the dye itself is all contained in one little pouch that you just push into the device, it keeps mess down so no random dye spots on your sink and cupboards that take months to maybe fade.
Now on to the things I don’t love.
There is a definite learning curve here. This is not for the mania-induced 2am hair dye kit. Leave that to Manic Panic and Splat. The instruction booklet + 13x8 instruction page is a bit overwhelming to look at and definitely makes you think twice about actually doing the thing. So, if you’re anything like me, this machine just might sit in a corner for 2-3 months before you remember you wanted to dye your hair in the summer, luckily by then, summer will be just around the corner again.
My other dislike is that this was definitely not made with the Type 4 hair girls in mind. This is absolutely for hair no curlier than perhaps 3A. The length adapter somewhat helps but I felt the comb ripping through my hair and that’s the opposite of what I need.
Overall a super cool concept but it seems no one with OUR hair had a seat at the table.

Great in theory but cartridges can be defective

Device wouldn’t dispense the actual die. Tried for several minutes and all that came out was the developer, color never mixed or dispensed. Returned the defective to target for another one and will report back on whether this one actually works. Make sure you save your receipt

Very light weight and easy to use. Maintenance is so simple and easy. Noise is minimal and works very well. Gets the job done quickly especially if you have very short hair.

Needs additional step
2 months ago
It’s not bad for what it is. It helps to apply hair color, especially if you section your hair, as you don’t have to paint it on. But you still need to brush it through after to ensure even distribution. What’s nice is if you don’t use the whole cartridge, you can save it for next time!

Did not work.

I wanted to love this, but I could not get it to work at all. There seemed to be easy instructions, and videos online, but the unit did not function to the first step so I was unable to use it.

Surprisingly, great grey coverage at home!

Great quick grey fix!! I found this product easy to use and great grey coverage! My new fave. I gave it a couple of weeks and my hair looks great. Reliable product as one cartridge good for 3 root touch ups. I was able to reach all the areas needed. Clean up was simple and easy too!

Waste of $$$ and your time
2 months ago
FINALLY able to get the wand to work and assemble the cartridge in its space . Was very uncomfortable to hold. Little awkward trying to balance and go through my hair. When I thought I had a grip on it and seemed to be getting somewhere the cartridge was empty halfway through my hair. I changed it and still unable to finish. I cut the cartridges to get out the remaining hair color so I could finish. There was half of the coloring still in them though the machine implied empty. Wasteful?! Save yourself time and money... continue using the bottles or a Salon.
I do not recommend this product!

This works better than anything Imagined. I will u
2 months ago
I am THRILLED with my new Colorsonic system!! I used Natural Brown #5, and it was a perfect match to my natural color. It took us a whole 20 minutes to color my hair. Instead of the hour or more that it would have taken the standard way (by painting it on). 30 minutes to process (not wrapped in plastic either, mind you!). We rinsed it out with cool water, then I put the entire tube of conditioner on and left for 3 minutes. After a final rinse (warm water this time, to get all the conditioner out) and my final result is GORGEOUS! You can see from my first (before) pic and my last (after) pic that it covered all but the smallest amount of my truly hard to color grays. Look at the difference in my "rogue stripe" - it's nearly GONE!
I am so happy! Oh, one more thing. There was NO chemical smell at all. No ammonia. No bleach. And my hair smells phenomenal today, just like the conditioner. I will definitely be buying more cartriges, as this WILL be my go-to from now on when my hair needs dye.

Coloring with less prep
2 months ago
Ok Loreal!!! This fancy machine works wonders dying the hair. I love how all you have to do is load the coloring cartridge and do your hair. The only downfall i have is not knowing if the dye is actually coming through mixing on your head. The dye is 2pipes and one of mine seems to still be full while the other one was empty. Other than that I would love to try it again.. Its the size of a flat iron so its package right nice. It dont make noise. Its pretty cool.

Cartridge 6Rr Light Brown Intense Red
How many cartridges are needed for med length (above shoulder) hair?
1 answer-
Hi Netty1266, Thanks for reaching out! If you follow the recommended saturation linked below, you should only need 1 color cartridge to color your full head. If you have extremely long & thick hair, it’s not a bad idea to purchase 2 color cartridges for your first application. We hope you enjoy using Colorsonic!
