You really can’t mess these up since the color is very minimal and ultimately washes out, and it’s a product that pretty much anyone could use. “Anyone who would like to add shine, enhance their existing color, or cool down yellow or brassy tones can benefit from using a color-depositing conditioner,” says colorist Giselle Luza, founder of Giselle Luza Studio. The point is, they work to combat brassiness in your blonde highlights, enhance your brunette base, or revive your all-over red. Plus, a color-depositing conditioner is also great for experimentation if you want to try a tone without committing to permanent dye. And yes, you use them exactly as you would any other conditioner, simply letting the formula sit on the hair for a few minutes longer to reap the benefits. Swap one out for your usual conditioner a few times per week, or use it whenever your hue needs a little help. Having been a blonde for many years, I've recently taken the plunge to go copper. My hair was stressed from all the bleach. My hairdresser recommended this, and the copper shamppon in the range. I have a large hair care wardrobe, all the top brands. But, I've been seriously impressed by this. It really helps boost colour, and leaves it so soft, with mirror like shine. Worth the extra pennies that's for sure! In my case, my hair looks shinier and just a little more vibrant: the blonde baby hairs, meanwhile, are blending in better with the rest of my hair (I applied the ‘brunette’ colour to my hairline before getting into the shower, left it for a few minutes, then rinsed it off and used the red over it), but they’re still a bit lighter than it, so I’m a little dubious about the ‘blends first signs of grey’ claim on the bottle, and suspect you might have to leave it for longer than five minutes if you have greys that need covering.

So, the first thing I noticed here is that this is a much better conditioner than the old Colour Effects, which was actually pretty useless as a conditioner: I loved it for its colour-depositing properties, but would always have to use a separate conditioner afterwards, whereas this product does it all in one. In this respect, I’d say it’s much more like the old John Frieda Colour Glaze (which was also discontinued in red, much to my disappointment) than Colour Effects, and this is a very good thing indeed. After using it, my hair felt in much better condition than it usually does, and it was easier to detangle, too. I have been using this product for a couple of years now, it revives the red, cooper tones of my natural color. It leaves hair quite soft too. A Colour-Depositing Conditioner for Red Hair (and other colours, too!) For the past couple of years, I’ve been regularly singing the praises of Superdrug’s Colour Effects wash-in conditioning colour. As for ‘Ruby Red,’ meanwhile, it’s actually lighter than both the name and bottle suggest, and pretty similar to good ol’‘Warm Copper Gold,’ may it rest in peace:Aqua/Water/Eau, Propylene Glycol, Cetearyl Alcohol, Behentrimonium Chloride, Steareth-20, Phenoxyethanol, Parfum/Fragrance, Glycerin, Isopropyl Alcohol, Mica, Polyquaternium-37, Potassium Phosphate, Benzyl Benzoate, Propylene Glycol Dicaprylate/Dicaprate, Argania Spinosa Kernel Oil, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter, Hexyl Cinnamal, Titanium Dioxide, Linalool, PPG-1 Trideceth-6, 2-Amino-6-Chloro-4-Nitrophenol, Sodium Hydroxide, Limonene, HC Blue No. 2, Acrylates/Stearyl Methacrylate Copolymer, 4-Hydroxypropylamino-3-Nitrophenol, Sorbitan Oleate, HC Blue No. 12, HC Yellow No. 13, Citric Acid, EDTA.

Yes, we know, this isn’t technically a color-depositing conditioner so much as it is a clear gloss. But if you don’t color your hair but do want some added vibrancy to your natural hue, this formula is amazing. It works on all hair colors (and types and textures) and adds a mirror-like shine that lasts up to eight washes.

It should go without saying, but you want to make sure the formula will still be able to do the conditioning part of things, and not just deposit color. Butters and oils (found in the Overtone Coloring Conditioner and the Maria Nila Colour Refresh) will help hydrate the hair, keeping it soft and shiny, and making the color look even better.
