L'Oréal Paris ELVIVE Colour Protect Shampoo Review

I've been using this for the past few weeks and have noticed my hair colour has been well maintained, it has been dyed a few months ago, and normally fades within this time. I've found this shampoo has really helped lengthen the time my colour lasts, and keeps it looking fresh.

I love the smell of this shampoo, and don't need to use too much to get a good lather.

Works well in conjunction with the conditioner.

This is a really great shampoo, especially for the price, it is often on special at the supermarket, I like how this shampoo is easily accessible to buy at any local supermarket. Will definitely be repurchasing.

OMG!!! I totally had a mega blonde moment and thought my first review was about both!! Hahha the shampoo well where do i begin?!? It is actually amazing the smell and texture is great!!!! It doesnt feel like you actually have anything in your hair!! Amazing!!!""

Amazing, loved it and still using it and will continue to use. It didnt dry my coloured hair!! Made it silky and shiny. No fading from my colour after a week of use.

Loved the smell straight away but just didnt quite cut it for me as a shampoo. Colour didnt seem to last any longer than normal BUT I do use a vibrant red currently which I will admit fades fast. My hair was more luminous and had more shine so I was pleased in that respect. It definitely improved the overall condition of my hair too (used in conjunction with the conditioner) so I would recommend. Would I use it again? Yes but only if I had a different hair colour.

The Elvive Colour Protect Shampoo has a lovely scent and lathers well. However I didn't feel it did anything to improve the condition of my hair. My hair errs on the side of dryness and it felt weighed down, dull and dry with this shampoo. My hair colour didn't fade using this shampoo it didn't counteract any brassy blonde tones in my bleached hair so alternating with purple shampoo was a definite requirement.

Well after using this for two weeks I think my hair colour has not faded although I did see some hair colour wash away with the shampoo, witch was a bit disappointing. I loved the smell and it made my hair smell lovely for the whole day. after using the conditioner as well it made my hair nice and soft and silky.

Apart from the amazing smell and smooth texture of this product, I would use it again, like any other shampoo, it made my hair feel like straw, a very rough texture I really didn't like it.but it did protect my color which is great.

Im a little sketchy with using shampoos and conditioners as i do take pride in my hair and as ive gotten older, my hair (although i find is still healthy)is a little more temperamental than my younger years. No more gel, mousse or spray on a daily basis as the build up and dry flakes at the end of the day is very non flattering. Even most shampoos i try (unless salon bought) i cannot retain for a long period as my hair becomes oily and yuck, not lovely soft and free! So far it has been 3 weeks since using this and i wash on a very regular basis. due to my job and school as appearances are top priority alongside your skill. so washing, blpwdrying and straightening hair on a near daily basis does usually cause a strain on the hair. I lighten my hair so retaining of colour is paramount as usually if its not toned regularly i will end up with a brassy colour in my hair And the test was put out there as i had run out of toner! Now 2 week into course a girl had asked me if i had recently had my hair done, as it was looking lighter and brighter. no work was done and not having any toner left there was only one explanation... ELVIVE so i will be purchasing another bottle to see how the results continue.. so far so good :)

Great shampoo, you only need a small amount and it lathers up realllyyy thick and nice! Has a nice light scent and leaves you feeling super clean. I have dark brown hair with toned highlights and my hair still looks as good as the day it was done. The bottle itself is nice and easy to use, I find some quite awkward to squeeze or difficult to get the product out, I had no issues with this one. I would definitely buy this product again.

Would definitely use this again, great price and left my hair feeling silky smooth and didn't wash any of my colour out :) love the smell aswell!
