Garnier Olia Review

So I decided to change my hair from blonde to brunette, something I have done a few times before. Loving the 'frosted chestnut' colour I grabbed some Olia. I left the colour in the stated amount of time but I could tell almost instantly upon drying my hair that the colour hadn't taken very well. I left my hair a few days, washed it once in that time and decided to use the same colour again thinking maybe it was something in my hair as it was fairly blonde. So again the colour started to fade out and after a week looked very dull. Gutted as I loved the colour on the box!! Anyway have since used a similar shade in a different brand and have had no problems at all. Would not use again.

My hair is really bad at holding color and also it is damaged easily. When I use this product it hold really well I only have to die it again when my regrets becomes too much. It leaves my hair looking and feeling amazing

I have been dying my hair for years from blonde to dark and vice versa. I found that this dye was great and it didn't fade to quickly which i have had with previous dyes. the conditioner made my hair lovely and soft i would definatly use this brand again.

I used this brand for the dark blonde colour and it is not permanent. It comes to a faded colour after about 3 washes. I even try to leave it in for as long as I can however it seems to make no difference, I still end up seeing my light blonde hair underneath it. I would definitely recommend a different permanent dye if you want it to last.

I had seen this on special at the supermarket for $11.25, with the red colour i'd been wanting for my newly cut hair. Excitedly I pulled this out as soon as I got home. The instructions and box are stock standard for hair dye. Putting the no1and2 into the applicator bottle was quick and easy, it mixed well with in a few hard shakes. I liked the different black gloves. Beginning to apply the product I noticed zero drips as the constancy was thick enough to not spill but thin enough to to evenly put through my hair with minimum smell. I disliked the bottle as once i had hair dye on my gloves I couldn't grip the bottle properly due to the shape. It was easy to wash out, and i loved the thick conditioner, it made my hair silky. Once my hair dried naturally i was dissapointed as it was very patchy (I've been dying my hair for 15 years and never had this issue before). Also my hair needed a seperate hair treatment as it dried my hair out. so over all a 3/5

I really liked this product, mainly because it is ammonia free. I like to keep an eye on what I put on my skin and hair and I have found it difficult to find a permanent, ammonia free hair dye. The smell isn't too bad either, which is another problem I have had with other hair dyes. I did find that the colour continued to rinse off in the show long after I had initially died it which was disappointing. However, I would use it again purely because of the gentle formula.

So I am a girl who probably dyes her hair a little too often, but I love this product. I am always drawn to this product because of the fact that it has no ammonia in it. It smells a million times better, feels a million times better and does a pretty great job at making my hair look nice. I recently used the Iced Chocolate - and my hair has so many dimensions, not just a dull boring colour. I would definitely recommend this product to people out there looking for an at-home hair dye that is reasonably priced, and does the job well :)

I found this product super easy to use by myself. Usually I have to get help but they bottle made it easy. The coverage was great. I have dense hair and there was more then enough. Had some left over which never happens. Smelled great too! I found that the colour lasted for about 4-5 weeks before fading out (for me thats average). Really good price for a good product that I would use again before other products.

I bought this in deep purple, and the formula is a little runny, but mostly fine. It smells amazing and feels so great on the hair, although the default conditioner doesn't smell as good. The only thing I'm concerned about is how fast my hair faded. I think it was less than 2 weeks when it started fading considerably, and this was me not even shampooing regularly (just 2/3 times a week). I was very disappointed especially because I paid full price for it. I'm giving it the benefit of the doubt. Maybe I had a bad batch or something. I would buy again if it was on sale, mostly because it smells so nice and leaves my hair feeling so smooth afterward!

I really like this product as it is so easy to use, I normally dread dying my hair but when I think of this its ok !
