L'Oreal Paris Excellence Review

I usually colour my hair at the salon, but I needed a quick refresher for a last minute event. It was really easy to use and has lasted well I haven't had to much colour fade for a red shade which is pretty impressive as it was used over lighten hair. However I found the colour selection guides a bit hard and not accurate I was after a copper and has ended up redder than copper. Low stains to on the skin (bit of a mess as I was focusing on coverage)

I have recently gone from natural black her to red copper and you can imagine my hair is totally frizzled from the colour strippers and bless h I have used to be able to go lighter. I have used many box dyes in my time but this one is currently my go to. It has made my hair shiny and healthy again, I have long hair below my mid back and one bottle was enough - I LOVE that they provide a shampoo to wash your hair during the rinse, that is not something a lot of box dyes provide and it sealed the deal for me for this box dye. The colour looks great and doesn’t rinse/fade out as fast as other brads I’ve used. I’m really happy with this

This product is your standard dye-your-own-hair-kit. has a lovely scented condition to give it that shiny soft feel after colouring. Covers greys well, but does fade after a while making the grey stand out. Colours are pretty accurate on chart, but can appear dull without a shine product to follow.

I used this once when it was on special, its alright, but I prefer my other brands to dye my hair, it is true to colour though

I think I used this for a number of years back when I still dyed my own hair. I would have to say of all the at home hair colours I have used, this is the best.

When I was going from being a bottle blonde back to my natural colour which is quite dark, this just covered it really well and didn't fade as much as other colours including some of the salon colours.

Have had many bad experiences with colouring my hair at home, so I'm always a bit hesitant when it comes to purchasing these dyes. My reason for buying this particular brand was i had never had any luck with other affordable brands so i thought spending a bit extra might give a better result.

Right off the bat i was impressed with the minimal smell and loved the protecting serum that you massage into your ends before applying the colour. The colour itself was easy and mess free to apply, i really liked the comb applicator, it ensured a tidy and even application.

I left it for the recommended time and followed the instructions re rinsing and conditioning. It was easy to rinse out and after using the conditioner my hair was soft, shiny and smelt pleasant.

I didn't get the colour i set out to achieve but I'm not blaming the product, i would say it was a combination of my hair being too dark to start with or maybe i could have left it on a little longer.

I was impressed with this product from start to finish just for the quality and ease of use and the condition it left my hair in afterwards. Would i use it again? - Absolutely!

This hair dye did not really agree with my hair. I feel that it never really changed my hair color like other hair dyes do. I like how good the gloves are (they don't rip or get in the way) and I like how it came with a protection cream to apply prior to the application. However the places that I applied the protection cream didn't color that well. It's a good idea though in theory. This hair dye did not damage my hair at all which was a bonus and the conditioner is really hydrating and nourishing. I do believe that this will do a good job for someone who is wanting to cover up their grey hairs or even just to do a touch up of the roots . Overall I really wanted to like this but It didn't really do much for my hair.

I’ve taken to colouring my own hair to save money and so I can spend more on other beauty products. It really is hit and miss when you use blonde hair colour. My natural hair is a mix of light brown and grey. I have tried this one and the one geared towards grey hair and neither have left me with what I would call “blonde “ hair. I literally coloured my hair last night and followed the instructions to the letter. I also used a toner afterwards to remove any brassy tones. My hair looks reddish and not in a nice strawberry blonde way which sometimes happens when I colour at home. My greyish temples are exactly as they were before, grey. I never expect salon results from a home dye kit but my hair just looks flat and dirty. This is the second time I’ve tried this dye hoping that I just wasn’t doing it properly the first time but no I’m not a fan and definitely won’t be repurchasing. It does however leave my hair feeling very soft and manageable. It may work well for some people but unfortunately I’m not one of them.
