Garnier Nutrisse Review

I used this product before the olia one came out and it was pretty average, not amazing but i am yet to find a supermarket dye that is amazing. Its affordable does the job however it doesnt last overly long, again like most supermarket dyes i have used it will eventually wash out. Simple to use, very straight forward cant really go wrong.

I've used the darker shades of this, and I found that it was pretty true to colour on the box. It worked well, and the colour lasted for a good few months. I just didn't like the heavy ammonia smell - but I guess that can't really be avoided. The instructions are easy to follow, the product is easy to use and it just works well. I also love the conditioner it comes with - leaves the hair feeling nourished and smooth. I do have a sensitive scalp, so it did sting a bit, and I accidentally got some on the face around the hair line which didn't feel great either. The only negative is that when it stains your nails, because the glove breaks easily, it doesn't come off easily! That, and the smell are the only negatives for me. Overall, I would say a good product, especially the darker colours, as those are the only ones I've used.

This was the most recent hair dye I purchased and I only got it because it was under $10 at countdown. I now regret not paying more and getting Olia as you do get what you pay for. The instructions were easy to follow and the bottle is just like an other normal hair dye. The smell of the dye was so potent and made my eyes water and nose burn. I felt the dye didn't go through my hair nicely and made it super knotty. It washed out nicely and didn't leave a mess, the conditioner was nice and had a good smell, the conditioner took out any tangles and I enjoyed using it. My biggest disappointment was how the colour turned out. I have never had a dye that has left my an uneven colour. After a dye has faded my ends are usually more faded than my roots and this is always fixed when putting a new colour in. To start with my hair was a medium-natural dark brown, I bought the chocolate brown and it made my roots a medium very golden brown and the ends a very dark chocolate colour. Neither colour was shown on the packet. It eventually faded and the colour in my ends of my hair was a perfect chocolate brown but still did not match my roots. I wouldn't say that it left my hair shiny, silky with no dryness for 8 weeks, it did leave my hair soft and shiny for the first few washes but then went back to normal. The price maybe great but I won't be purchasing this again.

Loved this product because it covered my grey hair. It is a shame it didn't last long. It's usually on special and easily available. Easy to apply, instructions are clear. Smells not too strong.

Went from black to fiery red, before trying this brand, I had tried other red brands but this is the only one that gave me the shade of red I was looking for. The conditioner is great too....I have very thick hair and it smooths and softens it beautifully, won't be changing the color or brand from now on.

So I have dyed my hair a lot... like a lot. I have been many colours and think it's fun to change it up. A change is as good as a holiday right?

Garnier is one of my go to hair dyes. I think they are easy to use. The colour holds well and the conditioner is amazing. Super gloss!!

I would recommend you mix it in a mixing bowl with a dye brush (investing in one of these is really worth your while although in desperate times I have been known to use a toothbrush. Yup you heard me right) this is particularly good for doing regrowth. By applying to the regrowth first then working through your hair you get a more even tone and not as much hair dye build up!

Also it helps that this is very cheap (check it out when it is on special it is super cheap then!!) and I find it is good value. I have only used it for darker colours though so I can not say what the lighter/ blondes are like.

If I'm feeling a change or just brighten up my colour and can't afford to visit the salon then I'll visit the supermarket and this brand is regularly on sale.

Having used it in multiple shades, blondes, browns light and dark it's a trusted product I'll return to time and again.

The packaging could do with a revamp to modernise the look, but the photo gives you a good idea of the colour result and the packaging does tend to stand out with the yellow and green.

The instructions are very easy to follow if you are a first timer and the gloves are a good size even for larger hands (my hubby dyes my hair)

The smell is ok, won't make your eyes water but at the same time is still a little unpleasant.

Once all the dye is applied I normally run my large tooth comb through however this particular brand I do struggle to do so.

Once time is up and ready to wash out it takes a while bUT eventually you get there and the treatment conditioner is lovely and gives your hair a lovely smell and amazing sHine.

I find the colour does fade a little quicker than some other DIY brands however for the price it's a great buy.

I purchased Garnier Nutrisse in vibrant red. I got it on sale so was impressed with the price however at the time I have hair down to my butt so had to get three boxes to cover it all. I couldn't stand the smell it gave me a headache and made my scalp burn which I can only assume to be ammonia. It was easy to apply and I got maximum coverage. I left it in for the 25-30 minutes it suggests then rinsed it out. I found that the colour didn't stick very well at all and only made my hair dark brown/red rather than vibrant red. I didn't like the gloves they have in the package either. I have long fingers and the gloves were far too short so I have to buy gloves that fit to protect myself from the dye. All in all I wouldn't buy it again because it doesn't come out with the colour stated even though it wasn't dark hair to begin with.

I tend to colour my own hair rather than pay to have it done. I use Garnier Nutrisse because I trust the brand and have had good results with it. It is affordable and it does care for my hair, as it says. I recommend their colouring range.

I don't normally dye my hair, normally once every two years or so but when I do I always use Garnier Nutrisse. Application is easy, espiecially when you get someone else like your mum to do it. The end result however is really satisfactory. Colour has always been to my liking as it looks natural and hair doesn't look damaged or anything like that.
