Napro Palette Intensive Caring Colour.

I haven't changed my hair or done anything to it in a long time & when I saw they were selling at $5 a box at Pak'n'save how could I pass up that offer.

I have been dying my hair for years and always loved the conditioner in these boxes. To be honest that is the only reason why I buy this brand of dye. Because it leaves my hair feeling fluffy and light.

The hair dye also does the job. I went from having a few stray greys and dark chocolate brown to jet black and it did the job great. It lasts a few months at a time and cannot complain.

Will always dye my hair with Palette. Next best thing after the salon.

I coloured my hair on Saturday the 11th in shade 4.88 Intense red.

Smells good, not floral but slightly herbal. Formula is really good , very creamy and thick and spreads really well. When colouring my own hair I use the nozzle of the bottle close to my scalp and squeeze in a zig zag pattern all over the regrowth (I only colour my regrowth) and pat and push into the hair with my fingers. And use the nozzle to part my hair in vertical sections. I continue till all the roots are saturated.

I actually left this one for about two hours, due to not having enough hot water. It still rinsed well and came off my skin well. I like to wet hair , emulsify and rub the colour into my forehead and temples, this helps remove some colour on the skin.

The colour care conditioner that comes with, is nice super thick and creamy, smells herbal as well, left my hair super shiny and soft.

I had a vibrant red result and that's what I am after. However and even tho it says GREY COVERAGE!!!!! I can see it coated them, but I can see in a wash they'll be back to white in no time. That's a pet hate of mine!! So my theory of leaving it in longer that the 30 minutes does not cover grey any better. However Brilliance by Schwarzkopf does perfect grey coverage with their Reds. Same company....

The Palette range is a cheaper , so I shouldn't have expected it to stand up to Brilliance.

I've tried this in both black and a red. The biggest positive I can pull from it is the smell isn't overly chemical, the scent is mild and sweet.

It mixes well, develops quickly and as long as you wipe any spots of it off your skin in good time doesn't stain. The nozzle on the applicator bottle is easy to use.

Conditioner that comes with it smells really nice and the scent lingers in hair for a good few days.

Unfortunately when I went to wash it out I was alarmed to see a huge amount of my hair going down the drain. This hair shedding continued for a good week afterwards. Thinking I may have done something wrong I tried it again the next time I coloured my hair but the same thing happened. No other dyes have had this effect.

Granted it's an affordable option but I won't be purchasing this again. I also found that the colour faded really quickly.

I was feeling very proud of myself I hadn't touched a blonde hair dye in months and had been relying on lightening sprays and lightening shampoos and conditioners to do the job so I could save my hair from over dying and it was working a treat but I wanted a change. I wanted to go ash blonde from just blonde. I brought this in the colour ash blonde 10.1. I brought 2 boxes as I have long hair.

There are only 2 parts to mixing this, the colour cream in a metal tube to the developer in the bottle too easy. It also comes with disposable gloves instructions and the 7 oils treatment conditioner.

I add the 2 dye solutions together and apply to my hair, the application nozzle has a long tip making it easy to get right to the roots. This has a chemical scent but also has another type of scent too, much like the mens deodorant Lynx.

After 30 minutes I wash it out and condition my hair with the conditioner, it smells lovely the only problem I have is there is never enough conditioner. Once dried I can't notice any real difference to my hair, it's not ashy toned but instead may have made the blonde even blonder, this is the first time I have experienced this with ash blonde dye. Probably won't repurchase this dye again.

I really like this dye, I use it in Black, it covers any little sneaky greys I have and does a nice even coverage, the smell is not bad either, not chemical and overpowering. It is usually on special at The warehouse and Countdown, I picked up my last box for $6. It is very easy to apply and when used in conjuction with a colour lock shampoo and conditioner it lasts a long time.

This was really an impulse buy at Farmers when I saw it on sale for $9 (and then the next day I saw at Warehouse for only $7 -_-). I wasn't expecting this to show up very well since my hair is somewhere between extremely dark brown and almost black. But alas I had bought it so I thought may as well give it a go. I only dyed about 10cm on the ends of my hair in an attempt to achieve that ombre look. The color mixes easily by shaking the bottle and squeezes out really smoothly as well. The smell wasn't too bad but I could definitely smell the ammonia when It wafts around my face. After about half an hour I rinsed this and probably after 5min of rinsing the water was running clear. Now for the big reveal! On lighter hair it's supposed to be a reddish purple color, on my hair it turned out black with a hint of violet. Ha, FAIL! I was a little disappointed at first even though I knew it probably wouldn't really show up. But the next day when I walked out in the sun I could see the color a little better and it's actually really nice. It's a very subtle red/violet that shows when your hair is against the light. My hair doesn't feel any more brittle or dry, and the argan oil conditioner that came in the box seemed to really soften my hair. Overall I think this turned out pretty well considering I hadn't bleached it at all.

I originally bought this dye because the supermarket I was in did not have the particular brand I wanted, and I really needed to cover my regrowth! I went with this because it was on sale - and half the price of my regular colour. I bought the shade Light Ash Blonde 10-1. Having used this hair colour a couple of times now, I do not regret buying it. As a cool-toned blonde I suit ashy shades, but it can be very hard to find a decent one. Many hair colours are too golden so do not suit me. This Napro ashy blonde looks very natural on me and blends in well with my light brown regrowth in between touch ups. The colour lasts okay over 4 weeks, with fading obviously occurring, but it does not end up looking too brassy like some other dyes. The dye itself is easy to mix and to apply. It has a more obvious chemical smell than some more expensive dyes, but not enough to bother me. Rinsing is easy and the conditioner contains argan oil.
