Naturcolor Permanent Hair Color, Sesame Blonde 9N 4 fl oz — Ammonia-Free Gel, Botanical Shine

Naturcolor Sesame Blonde 9N is an ammonia-free permanent hair color in a 4 fl oz gel that delivers multi-dimensional, natural-looking blonde with botanical nourishment.

Made in small batches in California since 1992, this gentle permanent color pairs fine Italian pigments with a botanical-rich base to cover gray, enhance shine, and maintain hair texture. The gel formula minimizes dripping, strong odors, and mess while allowing precise application for roots, all-over color, or blending with other Naturcolor shades. One box contains enough product for multiple root touch-ups depending on hair length and density.

How does Naturcolor protect hair while coloring?

Rather than relying on heavy, stripping chemistry, Naturcolor uses a reduced-chemical system combined with nourishing botanical ingredients to help preserve hair integrity. The formula works to deposit pigment while keeping each strand’s natural variation intact, producing a dimensional finish instead of a flat, monotone result.

• Ammonia-free formulation to reduce scalp irritation and harsh odor
• Botanical blend that supports shine and manages frizz
• Fine Italian pigments that layer for natural depth
• Gel consistency prevents dripping and eases application

What results can I expect with Sesame Blonde 9N?

Final shade depends on your starting color and the percentage of gray; darker hair will take on a deeper sesame blonde, while lighter hair may appear brighter. Gray hair shades differently from darker strands, which helps create the multi-tone, natural look the brand emphasizes. Expect rich color with visible dimension rather than a single flat tone.

• Designed to blend with your natural tones for authenticity
• Works on both head and facial hair without excessive irritation
• Suitable for both all-over color and precise root touch-ups
• Results vary by base color and gray coverage—strand testing recommended

How easy is the application and how long does it take?

The gel texture is formulated for simple at-home use: it spreads easily, stays where you apply it, and rinses clean with minimal staining. A full application usually takes less than an hour from mixing to rinse, and one 4 fl oz box often covers several touch-up sessions depending on hair length.

• Non-drip gel reduces mess and speeds application
• Low odor for a more pleasant coloring experience
• Average total time: under 60 minutes for most applications
• One box sufficient for multiple root touch-ups on short to medium hair

Can I mix Naturcolor shades or use it on facial hair?

Naturcolor offers 31 shades designed to be blended, so you can create a customized tone by mixing boxes before application. The gentler formula is also well-suited for facial hair coloring and for men who prefer discreet, at-home coverage without aggressive chemicals.

• 31 colors available for mixing and fine-tuning
• Safe for facial hair when instructions are followed
• Small-batch production for consistent color quality
• Works for both women and men seeking natural coverage

Who this is for: Naturcolor Sesame Blonde 9N is a good choice if you want a permanent blonde that looks natural and multi-dimensional, prefer an ammonia-free formula, or need an easy, low-odor at-home option. It’s suitable for anyone covering gray, refreshing roots, or combining shades to create a custom blond—particularly people with medium to light brown bases seeking a warm sesame blonde. If you have very light or pre-bleached hair, expect brighter results; if you have dark hair, the tone will appear richer and deeper. Always perform a strand test to preview the shade on your hair and scalp sensitivity.
