Garnier Olia Review

i love this hairdye,only get it when i see it on sale though :) , i found that it goes along way too,i like the packaging also. i love the fact that theres no ammonia and doesnt smell strong, actually i thought it smelt rather lovely.it covers my hair nicely and evenly without leaving my hair damaged and dry. only downfall for me is that it washes out quickly,wether thats just me i dont know. but even still, i will still purchase this product.

I bought the bright red in this hair dye as it showed on the box that it would turn out really bright. It wasn't really though so I was a bit disappointed. i mean, the colour looked good after, I was just really hoping for that super bright look. Probably bleaching prior would help but I didn't really want to have to do that.

This dye is a pleasure to use though, with no ammonia in it, it smells good and doesn't make your eyes water. I also felt like my hair would be stronger and healthier from using a product like this.

I probably would use this again, it might not be my first choice but if it was cheap when I needed it, then I would pick it up. I need to buy two boxes so it can work out expensive if I need to purchase two $20 boxes! I definitely prefer $10 boxes haha.

I used the bright red hue in this to redo my roots and was extremely disappointed. Firstly, it smelled terrible compared to other permanent dyes. Also, the gloves were too tight, my hands are not what would be considered large. The aftercare conditioner that came with it was not very good and didn't leave my hair feeling nice at all. But most importantly, the color faded extremely fast compared to other red dyes I've used. Although I love the wide-necked bottle and the red hue was awesome for a day, this product is just not good value for money and did not give me the results I was after.

Wow I got sent one as a sample before they were released here in the fiery red and oh my was it intense, the box was handy too with cut outs to hold the bottle whilst apply which meant less mess on the counter top. The formula actually smelt nice too, not too overpowering. Coverage was very even and easy to apply, not much washout after processing and the result was a high shine fiery red that really stood out, much approved and will use again.

This dye has a brilliant idea with the no ammonia and the oils but I found it completely useless for my hair type. First of all, application was like putting super-glue through my hair which I found made it VERY difficult to use and made my hair feel like hay. The bottle is a very awkward shape which makes it hard to keep in my hand whilst dying. After managing to get it through my hair and washed it, my hair did feel soft. The only other problem with this dye is that to colour did NOT stay in my hair much at all. At first the colour looked lovely and shiny but that was gone by about the 5th time I washed my hair.. I was very disappointed in Garnier as their products are usually lovely.

I purchased this whilst off work on maternity leave. As a hairdresser home colouring is a no no but I was desperate!

I've used a couple of box dyes as I believe it's good to try out & see what your clients are using at home. This one looked good as it's ammonia free & the magazine reviews sounded good! Choosing the fiery red, I headed home to get glam. I followed the instructions, only doing a retouch.

It was hard to apply, although no itchy scalp like some other brands.

Result was poor though, the colour was dull compared to my untouched & faded ends! It didn't cover 100% & I'm naturally very light & take colour easily. My hair felt rough, tangled easily & the colour faded within a few washes.

I also found I had to do treatments more often to get condition back (actually had a review product at the time which was excellent timing!)

When matching up my hair to the samples on the back of the packet it showed that this dye would brighten my hair making it appear a shade lighter than it was. However I found that all it really did was add yellowy tones to my hair! As my hair is a medium brown, that is definitely not what I was after. I wouldn't use this again, however I will say that the conditioner it came with did make my hair feel amazingly soft.

This product is an easy product to use and with no ammonia is much kinder on your hair. The scent is really pleasant and the colour is very true to the colour displayed on the box. With the cost under $20 I feel that this is a reasonable cost for a quality product and gives a result that is equal to a beauty salon at considerably less cost. I found the conditioner supplied is very generous and leaves my hair with a lovely gloss.

brilliant! the limited colour range is a little annoying but when I used this to cover up the frankly mangled colour I had I was in awe! It is really nourishing and really easy to use, being an oil base I found it really easy and quick to clean up my hair line (and I was using black) which had no staining at all. the conditioner lasted me weeks!!!! and the colour came out and stayed for a really long time!

This product Was ok, packaging wise it's up to the garnia standard bright and noticeable but the actual product faded really fast and didn't give a very vibrant red as some other products do, but in saying that it made my hair soft, smooth and silky and the fact that it didn't smell as bad was a good thing which really surprised me. All in all I don't think this is a bad product it's definitely not!! But maybe not for me
