It’s super easy: take our online Quiz and we’ll create a unique-to-you formula. Think made-to-order hair color, for any hair type, custom-crafted by your personal colourist, hand-packed with personalized instructions, just for you. If you’d like to gift custom colour, an e-gift card is the best way to allow your giftee to get the full custom experience. And voila—glamorous at-home makeover, delivered to your door.

Colourist Tip: Our colourists can match your natural hair colour or help you achieve your dream hair colour with a custom blend. Send us a photo in your account, and we’ll make extra sure that you love your custom shade.

Light Set

Brighten up those grey winter days with our Light Set. Your giftee can now create on-trend, sunkissed highlights from the comfort of their home using our kit, complete with the tools and instructions needed for a stress-free application.

The Light Set was inspired by the French technique balayage which means “to sweep,” adding effortless depth and dimension for a soft, natural result. One application can easily lighten hair up to three shades and is available in multiple options to accommodate most starting hair colours.

Colourist Tip: Keep a damp towel nearby while working with Light Set. This helps if any extra lightener gets on the gloves or tools. Simply wipe it away when needed and keep working so the lightener is only where it’s meant to be.

Tint Rinse

Looking for the ultimate hair-colour maintenance stocking stuffer? Our always-in-demand Tint Rinse is a professional shampoo-in treatment that temporarily deposits pigments to revive, enhance, and balance any colour.

Find the perfect shade for anyone on your list with over 12 shades to choose from. If you’re already a client and are logged into your account, you’ll automatically see your recommended shade match. We take the guesswork out of colour and care, just for you. 

Colourist Tip: To make your hair really absorb the colour and get the most intense result, apply Tint Rinse directly to your dry hair instead of in the shower.

COMING SOON | Colour Pro Boosters

No matter what kind of stress is bringing your hair down, it’s no match for our Colour Pro Boosters. These perfect stocking stuffers are professional-grade, concentrated treatments that protect hair colour while adding an extra dose of targeted TLC. They’re available in four treatment options to custom-fit any hair care routine. Gift one or all for a complete set.

Colourist Tip: Buying for someone with red or ash blonde hair? These are considered high-fade hair colors. Stock up on the Colour Pro Booster in Colour Protect to help extend the vibrancy of their colour.

Moisture Shampoo + Conditioner Duo

Baby, it’s cold outside – and that means dry winter hair is upon us. But you can check healthy, hydrated hair care off the shopping list because we’ve got it covered with Moisture Shampoo + Conditioner Duo. These two protect and replenish dehydrated hair with super-hydrating yet lightweight SLS and SLES-free formulas. Not only do they nourish and soften strands, but they’re also colour-safe and gentle enough to use every day. Perfect for the one on your list who washes their hair frequently. 

Colourist Tip: Together, this dynamic duo packs a nourishing punch, but sometimes, hair has varying needs at different times. Our Moisture Shampoo + Conditioner Duo can be mixed and matched with other eSalon shampoos and conditioners for a more custom hair care routine.

Cream CoWash

Need a gift for your friend who is always in a rush to complete their beauty routine? This 2-in-1 cream cleanses and conditions in a one-and-done step with Sea Buckthorn for soft, resilient strands. Plus, the less you wash your hair, the longer your custom colour will last. 

Colourist Tip: Almost wash day but want to keep your colour bright? Add a little shampoo to your Cream CoWash for a bit of extra cleansing power. 

Weekly Retreat

Winter-ravaged strands require a little extra TLC. Enter: Weekly Retreat. A moisturizing hair mask that deeply replenishes and adds shine while helping to shield your colour with luxurious ingredients like Jojoba Oil and Quinoa. This is the ultimate gift for the self-care queen in your life. 

Colourist Tip: Did you know that your body does all of its healing while you sleep? Might as well add your hair to that list by applying your mask while you sleep. Worried about your pillowcase? Cover it with a towel if you like, but wearing a hair scarf should do the trick. Result: Lush, soft, frizz-free strands.
