NO CHEMICAL STINK

fantastic smelling product that was easy to apply. nice liquid-y formula that spread easily but didn't drip or run. As a chronic self dyer I have tried virtually very dye product on the market and this is my absolute fave. Left my hair feeling super soft but without that big puffed up feeling that can come in the first few days after a new colour. Manageable, smoother and with really nice shine that I found lasted well beyond the first few weeks. Colour result was not as intense as more chemically options and did fade a little quicker (felt like I needed a refresh after 4 weeks instead of the usual 6) but came out exactly as represented on the box. Great product

Tips: beige blonde colour gives great natural result, especially if trying to tone back a brassy/orangey disaster!

Smelled pleasant

This was the first dye i have used that didn't have an overpowering chemical smell.

However the red colour i used wasn't very bright and didn't seem to last as long as other at home dyes.

The price is also twice or more the amount of other dyes which is less than desirable

Lots of wash out aswell with this colour but as expected with home dyes and a red colour so im not too picky about that as many others do it too.

The package was easy to use and the bottle etc made it easy to apply and not make mess if doing it on your own

Tips: Would reccommend getting two packets if your hair is past shoulder length as i feel this product was lacking, and i may almost have not had enough product to colour all my hair.

Black Hair too Stubborn

I love the brand itself, I guess its my mistake by choosing the wrong shade. my natural color is black for my hair and I bought light brown and I followed the instruction and waited for 40 mins ( since my hair is really stubborn ) when I washed it out it is stil black ( I should have bleached ) but my hair is shiny and soft thou, I gues that is quiet a bonus :) but other than the color it did nothing on me.

RED HAIR DISASTER!

I decided it was time for a change and went out to get the box of the OLIA red dye... WHAT A MISTAKE!!!! As I sat waiting for it to develop I was hopeful that I was going to have fiery red hair the next day - BOY WAS I WRONG! What I ended up with was blotchy dark red and brown patchy mess! I burst into tears, knowing that it would have to stay that way as it was too risky to dye over it straight away. It stayed that way for over a week until a hairdresser relative of mine took pity and helped me get rid of it!

Love this product

I have tried lots of different brands of dye, but out of all I find this one to be amazing, not only are the colours beautiful but it leaves my hair feeling soft and looking good. I am a fan of red hair and I find the red's they have amazing! The colour also lasts a while Ive noticed with my hair, colour's tend to fade fast but I have had this in my hair for over a month and its still looking new

Deep violet

Love this colour in my hair. I had to dye my hair because it currently looked a little lifeless and needed a little colour. Since my hair is already dark I went with violet to give it a highlighted look and something different other then dark brown.

I just recently dip dyed my tips and because I haven't maintain the look very well, I'm going to re-dye my hair ends again with Garnier Olia - Deep Violet to give my hair a fresher look again.

Garnier Olia, a breck though in hair colour

I have coloured my hair for years, roughly every month. When I saw thisj product offered an ammonia free solution I just had to try it. This product offers it all. Easy to apply, the product had a subtle fragrance not the horrrible ammonia smell I am used to. It offered good coverage with a natural looking colour and is priced to make it affordable for all. With outlets such as the Warehouse this product is affordable and readily available. Im sold!

Tips: Just read the instructions - easy as!

Revitalised my hair.

Now used this twice. Chocolate brown each time, although I do want to try one of the more exciting colours. Great price when purchased on special at the Warehouse. Not too fond of the mixing process, it seems a bit of a waste having 3 containers to mix rather than just putting the colour straight into the developer, but could be useful if you dont want/need to use a whole box at once. Definietly left my hair feeling smooth & covered greys.

I feel you get more

usually home hair coloring packs come with standard sizing for the solution but with Garnier Olia when applying the solution it covers more of my hair and i only have to buy one box, Ive got shoulder length hair (maybe a little longer) and is normal thickness and Ive always got left over solution, it gives great coverage and extra shine which i love which means i don't go through the whole conditioner in the first use.. the price is average but because it does such a good job it doesn't seem to bother me.. added bonuses for making the solution bottle attractive and sleek looking.

Tips: If you have left over solution don't throw it away put it in a dark place with glad wrap over the top to stop air getting into the bottle (make sure you don't keep it longer than 3 weeks) and touch up your hair it saves you buying another one next time you want to touch up that regrowth.. just shake the bottle to remix the solution.. please note that it may not be exactly the same colour as it has been sitting but its very close to it and you wont really notice

Pretty decent hair colour

I used this product last week. Went to an icy chocolate colour. It done eactly what it said it would. It didnt have a a chemically smell like others seem to hae. My favourite part about the whole product is that it DOESNT stick to you skin. It just sits on top and its easy to wipe off, without the staining that other products seem to leave if you go over your hairline too far. I would use again without a doubt
