I am reviewing: 1021 Very Light Pearl Blonde. The way it works on blondes is by using lemon extract to lighten the hair rather than ammonia/peroxide. I have bleached hair (foils), with my normal hair colour showing through as highlights and partly at the roots. My natural colour is an ashy dark blonde/brown and I was surprised to see that this actually lightened my hair at my roots quite nicely. It's a very subtle lightening and not orange. For the rest of my hair which was almost white blonde from the foils, ended up just looking brighter overall. I was worried I'd end up ruining my expensive foils but the end result is actually quite nice.
The packaging was easy to use, the gloves I found were horrible and very small, even though I don't have massive hands. I personally don't really like the conditioner it comes with, the smell is very strong and two days later I still smell like freshly coloured hair !
I would use it again because it's given me a nice colour, and would be a good way to brighten blondes in between hairdresser visits.
Thank you beauty review for giving me the opportunity to trial this hair colour. Its been quite a few years since I have dyed my hair so I was very excited.
Because I like my hair reasonably natural I chose Dark Blonde which is as close to my natural colour out of all the colours. The packaging of this product is attractive and easy to handle. The instructions were easy to follow, the pack includes everything you need gloves (very important!), developer, colour, and conditioner. It was easy to mix together, and applying it was very easy,there is plenty of product and covered all my medium/long hair. The smell is pleasant as it does not contain ammonia. I left it in for about 25 minutes to develop, then washed it out. The pack came with some delicious smelling conditioner, which was used after rinsing my hair and made it feel beautifully soft. Once my hair was dried off, my hair is beautifully soft and glossy. My hair has a lovely intensity and sheen to it that it was previously lacking. . I would definitely recommend using this product again.The colour has lasted for 3 weeks so far and I wash it every day :)
Tips: Always do a test patch for sensitivity especially if you have never coloured your hair before.
