I was super excited to trial this product as I had often seen it in the supermarket but as it was a bit more expensive then my original go-to hair dye that I knew covered my greys I'd been a bit apprehensive about trying a new product. This dye certainly was better than I expected and I would definitely buy this again.
The instruction sheet was clear with good pictures and wording. The info sheet gave good tips for if hair had been coloured +/- 3months and if covering grey hair was your goal. The gloves were certainly not as big as most home dye products - if you have small to average sized hands they would be great, if you have larger hands (like me :)), these gloves would definitely be too small.
The dye itself was easy to mix and apply. The smell was actually quite nice :) It had a very faint chemical smell - no where near as strong as other supermarket dyes! If you have thick hair or long hair past your shoulders you would definitely need more than one bottle - I have thick wavy hair midway between my chin and shoulders and there was only just enough product to cover my hair.
The dye turned very dark very quickly - I chose a medium-dark brown colour and by 15mins I was starting to get alarmed my hair would turn out black so I only left the dye on for 20 mins (they recommend 25mins if trying to cover greys). Great even and natural colour. Initially it did come out darker then the colour on the box but within a few washes it faded nicely to the colour on the box and has not faded more than that yet. It did give good coverage of greys, however a few have started showing through after approx. 1 1/2weeks after dying hair. My hair had a great shine to it and didn't seem quite so "damaged" as it often does after dying it so would definitely consider using this product again. Heaps of condition was given in the bottle - enough for me to use it twice which was great!
Well worth the cost and so far has done a great job - will be interesting to see how long it last for!
I actually really loved this product. Although ipicked the wrong colour which did not show in full effect on my natural hair the resuts were still great. It did not drip, was easy to apply and there was a good amount of product in the bottle. After washing and drying i straightened my hair and it was the healthiest it has looked for a longtime. I had a natural glossy shine and it felt so soft. It looked just like the packaging. I also really liked the conditioner that came with the product. Smelt divine. would recommend, just make sure you pick the right color.:)
Tips: If you have naturally dark hair, pick a dark shade for a shiny healthy look :)
