Is Overtone Hair Dye Really Worth The Money?

Posted by Valentine Belue on Wednesday, May 15, 2024

Anyone who has used Overtone's color-depositing treatment will tell you that you need to wear gloves, and with good reason. As Allure notes, the product stains bathtubs and sinks very easily, and can be quite a hassle to remove with bleach. The treatment is also thick and viscous, so it requires a very long rinsing time which increases the risk of staining your skin and bathroom surfaces.

In addition, The Zoe Report points out that Overtone is a semi-permanent color, meaning it washes out quickly and can easily transfer to clothes, towels, or pillowcases when your hair is wet. Using the brand's daily conditioner in the same color that you dyed your hair will help the color last longer. However, you will constantly have to deal with splotches of color on your clothing if you're not careful.

Overtone is not cheap, either. One full-sized bottle of treatment sells for about $27, while the package deal of the treatment and conditioner costs $47 (via Overtone). If you have thick, long hair, one bottle of the treatment might be enough for just one dye session. Plus, the product has a strong minty scent which while most users find pleasant (via The Zoe Report), it might be off-putting for others. Whether you choose to dye your hair bubblegum pink or deep green, knowing the pros and cons of your hair treatment will help you make the best decision for you and your color-craving strands.
