L'Oréal Paris Préférence Wild Ombré Shade 2 Brown to Blonde Review

Was very nervous to try this out as I have long hair and I had never attempted to do an ombré layered look with a kit. My hair had finally grown out of any colour I had 4 years ago and I was glad to see the instructions and materials were very simple including a new type of brush. Application is relatively easy but a second set of eyes is needed to ensure the ombré is level. Unlike the instructions common sense said that one should start at the tips, leave in for a bit and then work the product up higher to give a more gradual effect as per image on the box. Even with my long hair there seemed to be enough product. I was surprised that even the longest time left in my hair of 40 minute still resulted in a coppery light brown rather than a blond. I think I’d have to do a second attempt at the end of my ends to make it blond further. On the bright side it does make for a very natural ombré. The smell of the product (like most colour stripping) is foul but manageable. For the price range I think it’s a great convenient way to spruce up your look.

I was petrified to use this product. My hair is quite long and I was concerned the result would be very amateurish and would result in me paying for a professional colour.

It turned out to be a very simple process to apply the colour. I brushed it through thoroughly and found the brush easy to use. The smell of the product was eye watering to begin with. I waited the longest period to allow the colour to work but it did not achieve the blonde as promised. I have more of an orange copper colour which is disappointing however it blended well and still looks ok.

I applied the Loreal prefrence wild ombre yesterday. I've had an Ombre before and the tips of my hair still had colour in it, the rest of my hair however is natural. Because I have quite long hair I applied the colour from between my jaw right through to the ends. Followed Manufacturer instructions and timing. Left it on for about 35 minutes.

I was surprised with the outcome, because my natural hair colour is Dark brown I didnt think the colour would lift... but it did :) the ombre kit comes with a special application brush which gave it an ombre effect just like in the salons. I was expecting my hair to lift with abit of orange but it didnt, it lifted to a nice caramel colour which I LOVE. This product was easy to use, easy enough for me to juggle my baby girl aswell as applying the product and timing it. I will definitely be using this product again. It will be so handy having it in stores!

I always felt fear to DIY my hair because I know bleach can damage our hair. I have short hair and my natural color is dark brown. I followed all the instructions in the box. The application is really easy with the brush. I knew the final result wouldn't be exactly the same of the box because I had painted hair, but my hair turned a light brown that I love. After wash the product; my hair was a little dry, but I think that's normal. Now I apply conditioner and treatment to maintain my hair healthy. I definitely will use it again.

Since it's a bleach it's going to damage your hair no matter what So I used this to get the ombré effect and that's exactly what it did so I'm happy It came out a bit more orange and brassy then the box but that could just be me

My first impression of this product was great. The box looked appealing. Inside it had all you needed, good instructions and a brush to apply to your hair.

Before using this I did some research on best way to do an ombré. This helped me decide where to start so I wouldnt end up with the blonde beginning to high or to low depending on hair length and preference this will differ for everyone. I decided to go with starting at the bottom off my hair.

There was a good amount of product for my hair which sits couple of inches below my shoulders. I sections my hair and wrapped a towel around my shoulders before I begane applying the product to protect my clothes. Applying the colour was ralitively easy and think most people will be able to so it and pull of a great look.

My end result was great. I found my hair turned a really nice shade of blonde and colour change between brown and blonde is gradual.

I would use this product again and would recommend it to friends. If your wanting to give yourself an ombré look without paying salon prices I recommend trying this product.

I found this product easy to use and less messy than some others. The colour result was good although I could probably have left it on for another 5 mins or so. Overall I think I would probably use this kit again :)

I finally got a chance to trial the L'Oréal Paris Preference Wild Ombré Shade 2 Brown to Blonde. I have medium/dark brown hair so thought this would be a good opportunity to have a go at the Ombré style. The package contains a clear instruction leaflet on how to apply the colour to different hair types and styles, which I found helpful. The applicator brush does make it easy to apply however; I will definitely be leaving it to the professionals next time. Even though I followed the instructions I was not happy with how my hair turned out. The colour has turned into a lighter brown, which is okay but it seems very uneven. Maybe this is due to my lack of experience with Ombré but I have coloured my own hair on numerous occasions without any issues. The price of the kit ($17.99 and on special for $14) and the convenience of buying it at supermarkets is good and I'm happy that I gave it a go but will definitely be going to the hairdressers to fix this Ombré experience.

I was super excited to try out this product. I already had slightly ombre brown to blonde hair but wanted it to be more prominent. I had high hopes and an image in my mind of what I wanted.

The kit is easy to use, comes with everything you need including a cute little comb to help with the application. It's pretty straightforward just section your hair and apply the product with the brush and leave it in for up to 45 minutes. I started off using the brush for application but needed up just using my hands as that is what I am use to and I find it easier.

I noticed my hair changing in colour almost straight away so I was super excited, I wanted it quite light so I decided to leave it in for the full 45 minutes.

Shampooed my hair and applied the conditioner it came with and dried/ styled my hair as I usually do.

Intially I was quite disappointed in the results. I mean it wasn't bad, it just wasn't what I was hoping for. I have had a few compliments however which makes me feel a bit better.

The colour was a bit too ginger for my liking, I think to get the results I am looking for I will have to go to a salon. If I do try this product again I may try the lighter kit, but I think I will just give my hair a break for a while and go to the hair dressers.

I'm glad I tried the kit and if you are looking for a change and don't have high expectations then give it ago :)

It has been a very long time since I attempted to lighten my hair with a box dye after a few disasters, but not having dyed my hair for so long has made me brave. I have very long (almost to my bum), dark, curly hair. Whilst I do get dry ends (a common side-effect of curly hair) my hair is in otherwise good condition.

This product was very easy to apply, the brush that came with it did a good job and I've actually kept it in case I want to touch up or go over it with another colour. I only left the product in my hair for 30min as I wanted a subtle colour change and I really like it. The product has taken my hair from dark brown to to a medium golden brown.

After you rinse the product out of your hair there is a conditioning shampoo to go through your hair, as my hair was feeling slightly dry I followed up with conditioner then one out of the shower applied some hair oil to the ends.

Once my hair had dried I was really happy with the result, plan on leaving my hair at this colour and maybe going a bit lighter in summer.
