Loreal Casting Creme Gloss # Iced Truffle

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!

Silky Shine

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 :)

Love it

I have very few negatives to say about this product, from start to finish it is simple. I tried the 316 Plum colour and it is the exact colour I have been trying to achieve in my hair for a long time. It had a pleasant fragrance to it, and wasn't over powering. I love that it's ammonia free as I have sensitive skin and usually experience a great deal of itching during and after colouring my hair but have had none of that. The colour is even and actually what it said it would be. The creme gloss conditioner is devine and pleasantly scented. However I wouldn't use it wash after wash as it is a very deep conditioner and I have naturally oily hair. The only downfall was the gloves were on the slightly too small size, and I don't have overly large hands so that was a little annoying. But all in all it's a great product. Coming from a hairdressing background I was pleasantly surprised how well this product works! Usually after dying my hair with box dye's it feels quite brittle and dry, however this time around my hair was left softer than before. No knots and tangles. I will definitely be using this product from here on out.

Tips: When using ANY red based dyes, always ensure you wash your hair in cold water and ensure that you do not go to bed with wet hair.

Perhaps if you have slightly larger than normal or even normal sized hands you may want to use other gloves as the ones that come with it are while good quality quite small and tight.

L'Oreal casting Creme Gloss

I have used the same brand and same hair colour product for many years, so was a little apprehensive at trying a new brand and colour. I waited as long as possible to try this out so I could be sure of having a few grey hairs to 'hide'. I read the whole instruction sheet through first to be certain I followed all the steps. The sheet was clear, not too wordy and easy to understand. I was pleasantly surprised to discover the smell to be not as intense as my previous brand, and in fact didn't drip as much either. The Creme was easy to apply with just the nossle and helped by massaging in with the provided gloves (which were a very snug fit!). I was very pleased with the end colour result which was very natural and completely covered my 'greys'. The shine was great and the colour evenly spread.

Tips: I have very long hair so use a disposable shower cap after the colour iis applied to save it spreading to clothes or towels.

L'oreal Casting Creme Gloss

I really liked this colour. It was easy to apply and it smelt nice - alot of colours have a horrible strong smell but this one was pleasent :) I got the dark brown, it had good covereage and was nice and glossy. The only thing that I found was that the gloves were a lot tighter than other brands which was strange. I'm probably a medium glove size so I think that a large would stuggle to get their hands in. Apart from that, I would definitely recommend to others. And will be using it again

Tips: Have a soare pair of larger gloves :)

Salon Quality!

When I recieved the L'Oreal Casting Creme Gloss hair dye I wasn't expecting too much. I was expecting it to be like all the other packet dyes I've tried and it not to shout out anything special. Boy was I wrong! This hair dye, although I ordered one of the same colour as my current hair, made my colour shine and my hair was so soft afterwards. Even after days of using it my hair still felt wonderful and on par with some salon quality dyes I've had. Will definitely re-purchase.

l'oreal casting creme gloss

This was a good hair dye. Loved the colour I got but due to not dying my hair in about a year I had a bit ofregrowth so i have 2 different colours in my hair. So i probably needed 2 packs of it. Will just need to dye it again depending on how much the L'Oreal casting creme costs I would by that one. Also the gloves that come with it are great so much better than I've used with other brands

Not so fussed really

I'm a prolific hair dyer from the day my mother let me dye my hair and I have always used a permanent colour - mainly because I have a lot of hair and wash out colour seems like such a waste of time. I have to say after using this product - I am still of the same opinion. The truth is I am lazy and I like nothing better than to sit in the salon while someone fusses over my hair. Having said that everything L'Oreal says is true and it does live up to its promises but while I loved the colour it didn't last very long and probably because I do wash my hair everyday. In this case I think it is a great product but just not my bag.

Black cherry

My colour of choice was black cherry. (As I usually go for a red shade when dying my hair) the package arrived and the first thing I noticed was the funky shape, bright pictures and massive amounts of info on the box. Very appealing. After opening it up it had the standard colour, dye, conditioner as with most hair dyes. The conditioner was bigger then what I'm used to but I love dye conditioner so no complaints there. Mixing was easy as with other hair dyes. Also about the same for me with application. It covered my medium length hair well and to be honest it actually smelt better then other hair dyes. Usually I'm choking but this was ok. When washing it off it took me about 5-10 minutes to make sure it was all out. The conditioner felt really nice. For some reason when I dye my hair I feel it go kinda hard when I wash it out but this one didn't do that. The result was slightly darker then I'm used to but I did choose "dark cherry" it was soft and shiny and looked great in the sun. Overall great product, especially love the no ammonia. Price tag is more expensive compared to the brands I usually use but It is worth it if looking for a non-permanent hair colour. Very happy with the result. Would recommend it.

Tips: To keep the colour lasting longer use a dry shampoo in between washes.

perfectttttt

I am trialing this in the colour "100 licorice" my hair type is dry to ever so slightly damaged :) Heres what i thought...

Mixing was easy, just a two-step process with a bit of bottle shaking involved; then it was time to put nozzle to root. Despite being perched on the corner of my white linen table the drip-free formula stayed true to its word and with the product not containing ammonia, not only was it less damaging to my scalp and lengths, it also meant there were no funky smells going on. Colorant slicked on, looking like Stephen Segal, 20 minutes passed and it was time to rinse it out and use what is probably one of the best conditioners I’ve ever tried – the Shine Enhancing Conditioner. This step loads up the locks with gloss and serious shine and boy did it do just that. After blowdrying things were sleek, soft and subtly enhanced colour-wise - I like.

I actually really like this product- simple to used easy instructions no harsh chemicals and a beautiful colour at the end

This scores a 9-10 for me
