L'Oreal Paris Excellence Cool Creme

This hair colour looks upmarket, the packaging is sleek and looks like they aren't skimping. Easy to follow instructions and a nice surprise to find both a shampoo & hair mask after care. The product itself is a good consistency, not too thin but not too thick and lathers easily. Really like the optional hair comb attachment which distributes the products those the bottom. Makes doing your own hair faster! Hair looks and feel shiny & soft after it has dried. The colour is dimensional though don't feel the name matched the colour. Only issue I had was with the gloves, they broke easily and my hands aren't all that big. Would try other colours though as the products are good quality.

Really easy to use did find it quite runny when applying. Smell plesent. Love the colour. Would probably use this again.

I put it through my hair around 3 days ago. Despite having sensitive skin, I did not experience any irI received this box dye as part of a trial team and chose the shade ultra ash brown.ritation or burning from this product, and the application process was very easy! I was left with shiny, soft, and supple hair after washing out the dye with the shampoo and mask in the box. The colour is intense and vibrant. My hair does not feel dry or fried at all which is nice! Overall, I am really impressed by this dye and I will be repurchasing it in the future.

At the tender age of 34 I have quite a significant amount of gray hairs so I was in dire need of covering this up. Lucky for me, I got picked for to try out the L'Oreal Paris Excellence Cool Creme, a hair dye I had not tried in the past.

The thing that I found different about this hair dye was the fact that there were was a anti brass hair mask included in the box which prevents the colour from going orangey over time.

The hair colour was easy to mix up, much like any standard box dye, it had a pleasant smell though and didn’t smell of strong chemicals as most hair dyes do.

I liked the purple shampoo, especially the fact that it came in a tube instead of a sachet. It made it a whole lot easier to open and use in the shower. Again the shampoo smelt good.

I loved that the dye didn’t stain my skin & scalp as I do find this happens often when I colour my hair especially the grays around the front of my head.

I did find though that some of the stubborn grays were left uncoloured which was a little annoying but nothing I can’t live with. I guess I will need to learn to embrace my gray hairs eventually!

I loved the ease of use and the professional look and feel of this product. I wouldn’t hesitate to purchase this for future use.

I am a regular home colourist but L'Oreal Paris Excellence Cool Creme system was quite different from others used. The colour range is darker tones than I would usually use and I went with Ultra Ash Brown, which I thought would be a good winter colour, highlighting fair skin and blue eyes. Firstly the colour creme tube opened using a removal of a ring system rather than the pointy top of the lid. Super easy and effective though. Usually I find the gloves way to large...you slip and slide inside them and sometimes they feel like they will slip right off. L'Oreal Paris Excellence Cool Creme gloves were the other extreme. I struggled to get them on, with the body of the hand being too small, I was unable to get my finger tips to the ends. The colour creme did have a slight odour to make your eyes water. I usually apply a smear of Vaseline around the hair line and all over my ears...I wasn't sure I trusted the shampoo to remove this residue. I thought I'd give the comb applicator a whirl, even though I have short hair, not long as they recommend use for. It was a disaster. With the Creme blobbing and falling down my front. Replacing the nozzle, I went back to my usual system of squeezing out with one hand and spreading/working through with the other. I waited 30 minutes then washed using the purple shampoo. Again another snazzy way of opening the product with you literally breaking the lid system off, leaving a hole for the product to come out. The shampoo worked up well and I was super glad to say it did what it says, as there was no dye residue on my scalp after the process was finished. The final step after shampoo was to use the VERY dark blue/purple moisturising/anti-brass mask. The colour was almost shocking. The instructions say a hazelnut size amount. Sadly I don't know how big a hazelnut is, and used a blob. Left in for about 5 minutes then rinsed out. My hair was again soft and felt moisturised. Even as I feel my hair now, it feels healthy and not stressed by the process. An enjoyable process with clear instructions and novel ways of presenting the product. The anti-brass mask is a game changer! I highly recommend, but the colour palette is small and would not suit everyone.

This hair colour is better than what I would use usually. I got the Deep Ash Brown Colour and it turned out fantastic. I thought I would need 2 dyes due to the length of my hair but nope it was perfect. I applied the colour for a total of 30 minutes, once washed and dried, felt so soft and silky. It’s now been a couple of days since I dyed my hair and the colour is still as vibrant as ever. Would definitely recommend this to everyone. No overwhelming ammonia smell either! This is going to be my new go to hair dye for sure.

I dye my hair at home for touch-ups between salon visits. I used the colour Ash Brown and was pleasantly surprised at how vibrant the colour was and the conditioner left my hair super soft and manageable. Instructions were easy to follow and overall feel this is worth trying.

I trailed this hair dye in 3.11 ultra ash dark brown. The dye covered all my greys (not all hair dyes do) and the colour is really nice although a bit darker than I was expecting (a cool-toned dark brown, almost black, colour) but I still like it. My hair also feels very smooth and silky now.

Really great to have purple shampoo provided as well as an anti-brass mask to keep those ashy tones. My hair is shoulder length and I have enough shampoo for two washes. The packet recommends only using the mask once a week - but that should last a while.

The dye does not smell too chemically, but it is very runny. I used the comb applicator at first, which was great for applying to my roots but it did make the dye drip out too much so changed to the normal applicator.

I was so excited to try this as I haven’t dyed my hair for over a year,my hairs past my shoulders and pretty fine,my hairs also naturally a darkish dirty blonde but had always done my hair dark so even though it had been well over a year I still had a decent sized chunk of the old dark hair dye I’d previously used which was say mid way down so with just that alone I knew I’d be getting some nice brass tones trying to go back to my original,and this dye is supposed to help with the brass colour and keritan,the box was nice to look at and everything was easy to read,on opening the box I of course had to do the old sniff test and it didn’t smell to chemically like other brands,you mix 1 and 2 together shake and take off the cap and apply the little comb through attachment,your then left with the purple shampoo and the toner I believe,the consistency of the dye itself was pretty watery which I’m not normally used to but it was definitely very easy to spread through compared to my usual dyes and it was also a lot quicker to apply,my whole entire head was absolutely saturated so I thought there is no way there’s any missed bits anyway that was all fine it wasn’t until I got to the last 2 steps which the first was use the purple shampoo after you’ve washed out the dye and water runs clear but the last step which was the toner it doesn’t specifically state in the instructions to use this after the purple shampoo all it says is apply a hazelnut sized glob leave for 5 mins and wash out,so for someone like me who has never used purple products I was kind of like hmmmmm,so I just did the most common sense thing and used it after the purple shampoo,but I think it should be more specific e.g after using purple shampoo you then apply a hazelnut sized glob,after I had let my hair dry naturally it went frizzy and course feeling where any other time my hairs just been done it’s so shiny and barely any frizz,my hair looks as though there’s even more brassy tones than before I dyed it which has left me kind of stumped as my natural hair was actually a little lighter than the dye itself,was expecting that with my chunk of darker dye but not my natural hair,I’m hoping once I wash it again and use both the purple products for a second time it might tone it down a bit more,but so far I’m definitely happier with my older dye products for one it’s cheaper and seems to be more effective,my usual is about $16 where this one is anywhere from $23-$27 I think if I had gone with a darker colour it would of gone a little different,but I might even go and buy one more of the same colour in a week or so and see if it was just me or the dye itself or the fact that I might of needed a second bottle
