Garnier Olia Review

I must admit, I did my hair with Deep Violet and the colour doesn't seem to stop washing out in the shower, I have washed my hair over 15 times now and still the colour runs out purple and it doesn't stop, even after rinsing it still has colour coming off, although the colour is still good on my hair, must say it hasn't faded too much but I do worry about the colour rinsing out so much, I did use two boxes though, I usually only ever need to use one box but with Garnier Olia I used two, but overall, I still like the colour its just those silly re growths that needs maintaining ha ha ha

I am a sucker to a good colour hair dye and so far I have found this one is a pretty deal. My natural hair colour is browny blonde but I have been dying my hair red for the past 4 years I admit it is hard to find a good red hair dye that lasts, is bright to my liking (as I am fussy) and doesn't make my hair look/feel like straw, this hair is amazing, it is not my fave but it is definitely up there in the top 5.

The consistency is runny which can be a positive thing when it comes to hair dye and the amount you actually get. I usually takes 2 boxes to completely do my hair which is good because some brands it takes 3.

The smell is amazing, it doesn't smell like there are to many harmful chemicals in it and it leaves your smelling lovely, the condition that comes with the dye I wouldn't recommend as it doesn't fee/smell as good as some of the others and doesn't leave your feeling as soft as some do but all in all I love this product.

The packaging for the product is modern and has a good description of the contents of each box and a good colour indicator on the back of the box as well. <3

Ive been dying my hair for many years and this by far has been my favourite. The colour lasts for a very long time and didn't dry my hair out at all. Unfortunately I have VERY sensitive skin and started to have mild allergic reactions using this product.

I choose deep black as I naturally have dark hair but had a few foils put through it that I wanted to get rid of... I was happy with everything, no harsh chemical smell, large tube of conditioner that I got 4 uses out of and the packaging. Sadly the colour faded after a week. Wont be buying again.

I used this for the first time about a week ago now, The actual name of the colour i got slips my mind though. I'm not so sure if I'll buy this again though. It was good not having that harsh smell, the bottle size was generous and it was good having a conditioner I could use multiple times (Think i got 3 uses out of mine). However the colour of my hair dye has faded really quickly, which is slightly disappointed. My hair doesn't feel any softer or different than other brands, if anything - I've noticed my hair being more greasy than normal? It was kind of a product with positives and negatives for me, but on this - the single negative of how short the colour lasted out weighed all the positives. Think it was the first and last time I'll use olia - unless it's on a really good special.

I tried this about a week and a half ago mainly because it was on special at Countdown and I never like to spend too much on my box dyes. I was not impressed at all, I'm already looking at my roots and seeing evidence of greys and the colour is not at all how it was portrayed on the box. Don't get me wrong it was super easy to use, the packaging is very appealing and its not at all expensive (even when not on sale) I was just not that fussed over the final result. I applied as directed and was promised grey coverage. As a 26 year old who already has greys you can imagine this is very important but at just over a week and a half after dying I should not be having to think about redoing my roots. I'm not one to complain usually but I am seriously considering getting in touch with Garnier as their products are usually spot on. Long story short, don't bother.. I'll be sticking to my Napro Palette from now on ($8 bucks on special and lasts at least 5 weeks!!)

At first I was nervous about trying a new dye but the no ammonia court my attention. The bottle was a generous size and mixing the product was tidy and quick to do. There was no nasty smell and coverage was easy to apply. Having grey highlights I always look for something that is going to cover them up and last, this product did that and has continued to hold it's colour for 3 weeks and still strong. The dye was a lot easier to rinse out and the final colour was bright bold and my hair looked shiny. I would happily use this product again

I have been using Intense Red for over 6 months now and will continue to use. I find it much less damaging on my thin hair than most dyes I've used (and I've been colouring my hair for nearly 20 years!) No overpowering ammonia smell and a good consistency when applying. It is very easy to apply- doesnt run and I find there's quite a lot in the bottle. The colour does fade a little faster than an ammonia based dye but for how gentle it is on my hair I feel it's still a better option. The conditioner that comes with the colour is also very nice.

When I first used the product I was so happy because it was so much nicer to apply than my regular hair dye as well as not including Ammonia like most permanent hair dyes do. However a couple weeks after I dyed my hair the brown faded and my regrowth became visible again as well as the new regrowth which left me looking rather tragic. It did leave my hair feeling healthier for a couple weeks though which was nice :)

Dark blonde 7.0

I found this the best lightening hair dye yet! 2/3 of my hair was very light very blonde and the regrowth was brown. And I wanted a colour that would make it all one colour. I used 2 boxes as my hair is quite thick and long.

It's Easy to mix, add the colour cream and developer into the application bottle give it a good shake for a good minute. There was no horrendous ammonia smell mixing it. Easy to apply I love the fact that the application bottle has a really long tip so it's super easy to get to the roots and see what your doing. It is a thick creamy texture so there were no drips And made it easy to handle. What I really liked about this dye was no ammonia smell or the breathtaking smell of bleach. It was rather pleasant Almost a sort of fruity smell to it. I left the dye in for 45 minutes it was easy to wash out in the shower and the care conditioner comes in a nice big tube so it's easy to dispense on your hand. Afterwards I noticed it was easy to dry and style as normal. The colour did however come out a more of an ash blonde than a dark blonde especially in the lighter parts but I do like it. My hair looks pretty even all over now. It feels smooth soft and tangle free not how my hair usually feels after being lightened, usually stripped and fragile and tangles easily
