Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great product so far! I’ve only had a chance to use this once so far, but I really like it. Application was smooth and even, and lift was lovely.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Not my favorite I compared this product to Schwarzkopf blonde me clay. Redken doesn’t get as light as blonde me. Redken only has more conditioning and you have more lift control on light hair color. It works too slow I wouldn’t buy this product again.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Not my fav cream lightener This product does not go far. It’s a really nice creamy formula, but it also gets really bubbly and expands a lot. I don’t trust it. It does a good job of toning though and it is nice and gentle. So if you have dark brassy type hair that I would use it for that. You also must use the dedicated developer with it!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Game changer Blonde IQ 8 delivers strong lift with built‑in anti‑brass power. Creamy, controlled, and incredibly clean results — perfect for stylists who want lift without the warmth. This lightener is a game changer for neutral blondes.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Gentle but powerful for a cream lightener Really nice cream lightener. I felt like it was gentle and easy to saturate the hair but still gave a really clean lift. Excited to continue using this!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Impressed As someone who has worked with Redken for years, this instantly reminded me of the old Blondedol line, the oil delivery system gave such smooth, even saturation with an incredible, consistent level 9 lift on level 5 hair using only 10 vol in 45 minutes. The lift was seriously impressive, and this has quickly become one of my new favorite lighteners, definitely a must try!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great for many applications. I used this cream lightener on scalp and it did not agitate the scalp as much and left the hair much healthier than a traditional power lightener. It didn’t dry up while processing and was an overall great product.
