L'Oreal Paris Casting Creme Gloss Review

Loved this product!! My hair was super soft and shiny after using it. Was very easy to use and no fuss to clean up. I am looking forward to using the copper in the winter!

I absolutly loved this product, i have my usual hair dye that i have stuck to for years, too afraid to change it but i am so please i tried this. It was easy to use, didnt have to bad of a smell like some do. It left my hair so nice and soft i just loved it, the conditioner with it was equaly good Would def be swapping to this product

I applied this to my hair yesterday following the instructions given very closely. Once i had rinsed, conditioned and towel dried my hair I noticed that my hair was much more shiny and soft, although i didn't notice a huge shift in the colour of my hair I'm actually quite pleased with the overall end result. I would recommend using a leave in conditioner or hair masque once you have towel dried your hair after rinsing it as it definitely helped keep the ends of my hair soft.

I have dry-damaged hair and it seams as tho it has smoothed my ends a little bit ? I trialed the colour 100 licorice which is a black

Application is very easy and straight forward, instructions are simple to follow. The smell of this is not strong and offputting as others iv tried.

Overall i would rate this a 8-10 and i think you should give it a go and see how you like it :)

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 :)

I have been colouring my own hair at home using box dyes for years now. I decided to review the shade 600- light brown as this is the shade I tend to go for with other brands. I have dark brown regrowth but it is never an issue with dying my hair at home. First of all the prep is super easy and the products mix up nicely. It's simple to follow the instructions and easy to apply to your hair. Like I said, i've been dying my hair for years but I feel like a beginner wouldn't have any issues either. I have medium length hair and I had just enough product to cover all my hair, so if you have long hair (past your boobs) or thick hair, you may want to buy two boxes. The dye washed out nicely in the shower and it comes with a small conditioner that leaves your hair feeling nice and soft. I was happy with the result overall, the colour was nice, application was easy and my hair doesn't feel anymore damaged than it already was. I only dyed my hair a few days ago so I can't comment on it's longevity but I would expect it will begin to fade in a couple weeks. I will repurchase if I see it on special.

I loved this product, and would recommend other people to try it if you want to look after the condition of your hair. This hair colour does not strip the moisture out of your and leaves hair looking shiny and healthy. I tried the Amber shade and it added a nice subtle red to my hair.

Choice: 1010 VERY LIGHT ICED BLONDE

I think making a colour choice over the internet might have been a little ambitious - I think this was slightly too light for me, however I'm pretty sure with some toning and fading it will look killer!

Firstly, the price for this DIY colour is damn good.

28 washes: I wash my hair about three times a week so this will last me a VERY good amount of time! Plus blonde doesn't really fade... I'll defo need to touch up my roots before that time is up tho!

I personally love that this product has no amonia in it. Not only was there no burning head, there were no tears haha.

The instructions with this colour are excellently simple and easy to follow. It does do what it says in the fact that its a nice thick texture and therefore no dripping messiness.

I always love using the little conditioner packets that come in these and this one was no exception. My hair felt SO good - not that it had just unnaturally been abused into a preferable shade of blonde! Even after blow drying it felt great. No straw like feel here.

My regrowth was pretty bad and I attempted to only colour that part of my hair - I am not a hairdresser so it was tricky to do on my own. Its a little rough but I'm not picky so I'm ok with it! Looking at the L'Oreal website, I might now invest in one of the products from the Elvive Colour Protect range. I already have the Total Repair 5 Instant Miracle which I didn't use after washing (just the conditioner) might will give that a go in a few days when its time to wash again.

Overall: I think this is a really good product! Next time I think I'll go to a pharmacy or Farmers to look at the colour selection before making my choice :-)

I was lucky enough to get placed on a trial team to review this product, and was so excited. I haven’t dyed my hair is so long its hard to remember when I last did it, but I chose the colour 100 Licorice, because I have some ginger parts of my hair from D.I.Y ombre attempts, and I wanted my hair to go back to black.

I quite like the design of the box, it’s simple but effective and give you all the details you need to know. I myself did not find using the box as a stand for the applicator bottle useful, but I’m sure for people other people would find it useful. I actually found the labelling on the applicator, developer and conditioner useless seeing as the product was labelled in 4 other languages, with English being the 5th on the list. This might sound like a small thing, but because I asked my mum to help me out with the back of my hair, I saw how people who were not that experienced with hair dye may get confused. I think it would be clever for L’Oreal to prioritise the English language label. The developer crème is a thin liquid which is white and slightly transparent (because it’s quite thin) and this mixed together easily with the cream colorant, and actually smelt quite pleasant compared to other hair dyes I have used, and application was a breeze. I was surprise that there was actually enough dye for a decent coverage over all my hair, and the applicator tip made it very easy to control how much product was getting released. The conditioner is white and quite thick, and I really like the smell of it. It smells kind of fresh, but I can’t put my finger on the actual scent.

Anyway, the results. After dying and conditioning my hair, well it looked pretty damn good. The ombre bits of my hair were completely concealed, which is amazing because I have wanted to cover those parts of my hair for ages. Additionally because I used this all over my hair, my hair got a boost, and had this healthy shine to it. After 10 or so washes, that healthy shine disappeared, and after about 15 washes I can see the hint of a ginger in the sunlight, but inside my hair still looks completely black so that’s good. So this is a good product, but would I use it again? Probably not as I would go permanent next time to cover those ginger spots once and for all. Additionally since I have dark hair, its hard to use any other colours that are available. However, I do think this would be an amazing product for those who want to freshen up their colour. Additionally, I like how the dye only needed to be left on hair for 20 minutes, and that it had no ammonia.

Great colours to choose from and the instructions are very simple to follow. All the bits in the box are numbered and you just follow the diagrams to apply the colour. I like that there was not a very strong smell when I applied the colour. I did find it a bit tricky to apply by myself as my hair is very long and I have not done this in a long time. I think the next time will be easier. I Rinsed my hair thoroughly and it only took about a minute for the water to run clear. I used the conditioner provided and dried my hair. I could see already my greys were gone. First night sleeping, no marks on my pillow case, that's always good. The next day my hair is the colour the box shows and very glossy.

I think the real test came after the first wash. The Loreal Casting Creme Gloss is only to last up to 28 washes. I was a little disappointed when after the first wash I could see my grey hair again, and that night I ruined my pillow case too :(
