I have been getting highlights in my black hair for the past year. I mostly wanted a natural balayage sort of look but I kept coming out of the hairdressers like I was 70% blonde.
To even out the contrast I decided to using the casting gloss. The light brown 600 was the lightest I could find in my store. I was a little worried from the reviews that a) my highlights would become very dark/black again and b) my black roots would be disaterously bleached. I chatted with the online agent, Sarah and she gave me confidence that the gloss would be perfect to achieve the even colour I wanted. She did suggest I find a shade lighter to start but I wasn’t able to swap.
I used the 600 light brown and it worked really well! I did an all over application and didn’t leave it in for the full time (maybe 10-15 after full application- I also think it took me at least 20 to apply so am not really sure how that all works). I can see a few days later that it is getting lighter so perhaps I could’ve left it on longer, but I’m really happy that my blonde streaks are coming through as a light brown now! I can’t stop looking at it, it has so much more natural depth and tones. I am very happy
I’ve attached a few photos, my hair before (sorry only had that dog pic), my hair estimation from the online colour thing (clearly inaccurate) and my hair now, 3 days post dye

FAQ
How does tone on tone formula work ?
A tone-on-tone formula contains two products: a colouring cream and a developer. The same way as traditional hair colour, the two components need to be mixed.
A tone-on-tone hair colour primarily provide to consumers reflects without changing the tone level of their hair. The reflects fade over time without a "root effect". Moreover, it can provide optimal coverage of grey hair up to 70% (depending of the shades), whereas classic oxidative colouring can provide up to 100% coverage.
Tone on tone is not recommended for people who have more than 50 to 70% of grey hair or for people who want a lighter colour than they currently have.
What is the difference compared to a traditional hair colour ?
Compared to a traditional hair colour, meaning a permanent hair colour, the tone-on-tone hair colour does not change the tone level of hair, meaning it is not for hair transformation. The processing time is shorter (20min) and Casting Crème Gloss has been formulated with a low concentration of alkaline agents. This low concentration of MEA reduce the opening of the cuticles to :
-Allow soft penetration of dyes inside the hair resulting in a lower hair sensitizing colouration process compared to permanent hair colour.
- Reduce the lift and ensure a minimum rootline effect.

How does the New Casting Crème Gloss differ from Casting Natural Gloss?
CCG shades reno comes with a "cleaner" and more environmental friendly formulation to answer to L4TF challenges of the group.
CCG reno differs from CNG in terms of positioning, since CCG reno has a scientific positioning powered by Glycolic Gloss Complex, while CNG has more a "natural origin ingredients" communication. Number of shades and colour result also differs, as CCG reno is available with the most complete portfolio of 40 shades with fundamental, warm, cool, but also polychromatic shades.
Meanwhile, in anticipation of CNG discontinuation, we've run a series of head trials to see which CCG reno shades can replace CNG shades - 3 shades of CCG reno can totally replace CNG:
- CNG 323 can be replaced by CCG Reno 323
- CNG 623 can be replaced by CCG Reno 618
- CNG 723 can be replaced by CCG Reno 780
