Schwarzkopf Brilliance Review

Good value for money, also more than enough in the bottle for a full head application for hair around shoulder length. It is very vibrant and bright in colour. The smell isn’t to intense and it didn’t seem to cause any hair damage at the time, after dying it actually felt healthier.

I recently went through one of my three yearly phases of wanting to dye my hair purple/red and my sister in law told me that at pak n save they had Schwarzkopf for cheaper than normal in a shade that she thought would look great on me. So I took the plunge and I certainly do not regret it, it didn't look completely how it said it would on the box but it was off by only a little bit. The colour is vibrant and it didn't make my hair crunchy which some other box dyes do. I will definitely purchase again, even at full price.

i have very short hair so a box easily does my whole head quickly. i find them easily at the supermarket and i like the range of colors they have, i always opt for red but recently ive been going dark brown.

i like that these are easy to use and easy to clean off my skin or the bathroom walls if i make a mess. it smells quite pleasant as well which i also like, and i really like the conditioner.

this fades well, i wash my hair every second day and it lasts longer. it's a really good dye for a good price and id buy it again.

Everytime I wanted a change in hair colour I would always buy Schwarzkopf Brilliance in Chocolate Rush. I loved the colour of it, it would always turn out quite dark at the start which i loved but it would fade alot after a few weeks, I found my hair stayed nice and healthy after using it though. 2 boxes is best for long hair and its nice and simple to use. I would pick it up for about $10 on special.

I have bright red hair right now. Initially for the first time dying red I used a different brand but now I have been using the Brilliance colours in 'Hypnotic Red' and 'Red passion' also 'Dark Ruby' the Hypnotic of the reds is lighter and more orange-red when it washes out the other two I have used mixed together with the hypnotic shade as I was a bit worried about it going too dark and or for the regrowth poking through. I do plan to use them on their own eventually as I dye my hair often now. The results are good. Nice vibrant red. I asked at a shop that sells professional dyes and products if it was possible to get a bright red colour from the supermarket dyes without pre bleaching and they said no yet this one worked on my hair which was dyed a medium brown before putting the red on. The dyes come with a rain drop type oil stuff that is supposed to give your hair shine I think and since it is small I have actually forgot to use it before. I do not think this changed the colour result but perhaps it will look more shiny if you use it. On my head I could feel some heat from the colour but nothing serious or painful. The conditioner for this smells amazing I never use the whole thing as I have fine hair so it is not needed. I do find that the dye seems to go down the plug hole for quite a while when rinsing it out then for the shampoos in the next few weeks you will find the colour washing out then too it is best to use a old towel I have red and orange areas on the towel now but I did expect that from red as the colour particles are bigger in size. Interestingly Red is one of those shades that can fade fast but hair dressers will say it is also one of the hardest to get out of the hair. This colour has lasted well compared to the other brand in terms of staying vibrant and I prefer the shade of red more of the brilliance range than the one I used from another brand. There is everything in the box that comes with a standard home dye in the box. For the hynotic red shade my hair was a good match to the lady on the box and the red passion added to it gave the more crimson red I was looking for the next time round. I did find that my ends / from about my ears down the colour wash faded out to a reddy browish colour the first and or second time (I have now used the red dyes about 5) where as the the rest of my hair stayed more fresh looking in terms of colour. This will probabbly be because those areas are the most dry or damaged. I also found a shampoo for colour treated hair works wonders some shampoos are harsher than other meaning they washed/faded the red faster. I would use this brand again for sure.

been using this product for more then 6 years, I'm using the L60 colour. always people say where you get this colour from. i also have grey hairs too since young age. this product covers perfectly, and not willing to change it.

Very affordable pricing at local supermarket. Contents all present and correct.Easy to follow instructions. Easy application. No stained skin. No allergic reaction. Disappointed with the colour result. I dyed my hair 1 week ago and thought I would give it the week before passing any judgement. The box reads "perfect grey coverage - permanent" However this was not the case for me. I only have a few grey hairs "here and there" but unfortunately this colour did not fully take on some of them. I have always been happy to use other Schwarzkopf products in the past, so I would be willing to try this one again, but in another colour perhaps? I'm open to the possibility of a better result next time...
