L'Oréal Paris ELVIVE Colour Protect Shampoo Review

I have been using the same shampoo for years. Occasionally trying another one for a chance but always being disappointed. Not this time though. I love the smell of this shampoo and the easy way it lathers up on my hair. Easily rinsed off, my hair feels clean, silky and shiny. I love it!!! It is hard to say if my hair colour has been protected as I began trialling this mid-colour but I haven't noticed the colour deteriorating either. New colour due next week so am confident this product is the one I have been looking for :) In response to the question ' would you use it again? well I have already bought this product as it was on offer in the supermarket and even picked up a bottle for my daughter who also dyes her hair :)

This shampoo has a beautiful fragrance and my hair felt soft and clean after using it. It was gentle enough to use every second day without stripping my hair colour.

Was really keen to see how this would make my hair feel and look and I was not disappointed. Love the smell of the product and it lathered up well. I shampoo my hair twice and saw no reason to change for this product. The product rinsed out of my hair easily. I did use the matching conditioner so my results are a combination of the two products. My hair is soft, shiny and very easy to manage. That is quite a different result to the current shampoo and conditioner I had been using. I would need to use the product a lot longer to confirm the colour protection factor, however the only difference I note with my hair colour at this time is the regrowth.

I have been using this product for the past 3 weeks every 2-3 days along with the conditioner

the packaging is nice to look out but I found it slipped out of my hands while in the shower the labels have too much writing on them making them less interesting to the eye.

the smell is nice, it's tangy but not a fruity smell.

the texture is what you would expect in a nice pearl colour.

I found after using this with the conditioner my hair ends were super frizzy.. which was disappointing.

I also read on the back packing for the 28 day trial of washes it is using the extraordinary oil as well which I did not use.

My coloured hair has faded over the use of using this, it is not as vibrant as it normally is and feel very straw like not nourished at all.

I am having great results with this shampoo. It leaves me with shiny, glossy hair that I just cannot stop stroking. It smells nice but I find the smell doesn't last long after your hair is dry. I love the lovely thick formula that lavas up really well and you don't need to use much for a good wash. The packaging is sleek and I love the colour. It looks great in the shower and doesn't take up much room. I I think it is salon quality shampoo but cheaper.

I had dyed my hair from light brown to dark brown a few weeks before I received this product so it arrived just in time! I am quite surprised with the shampoo as it actually does make the colour last a lot longer! I am used to re-dying my hair every 6 weeks or so but I have dyed my hair around 8 weeks ago and it doesn't look like it needs re-doing at all - a definite money saver! It smells delicious and gives the clean feeling of fresh hair. I would definitely recommend this to a friend as it is AMAZING and works wonders! Thanks BR X

I was skeptical with this, they never do what they say, they always smell terrible. Not this one!! It smells nice in your hand and leaves you hair smelling good (my husband has been telling me my hair smells nice since I've been using this) and my supermarket coloured hair has seemed to be more vibrant. Also it gives you the "I feel clean!" feeling that some shampoos lack. I will be buying this once its run out

I have been using this shampoo and conditioner for the last few weeks (washing every second day).

I love the colour and the design of these bottles always a bonus to have both bottles with a flat cap to flip them upside down when supply is low.

The shampoo was nice and thick which gave a really good lather and a nice scent to go with it. Not fruity as such more of a nice professional salon smell to it which lasted til my next wash.

The conditioner was creamy in texture and just as nice to smell, i only ever use a tiny bit at the ends of my hair so that it isnt too heavy on my hair.

The result: Lovely silky hair with a (almost) salon quality shine. I have highlighted hair and didn't notice any brassiness or dullness in my colour. Thank you beauty review, for the price i might just repurchase in the future.

My hair was fizzy, dry and damaged after many attempts of hair dying and straightening. I had dyed my hair before putting this product to test. My first impression was - it smells devine and I love the consistency of the shampoo. I have been using this product for the past two weeks and noticed it does enhanced my hair color and at the same time it nourishes my dry scalp too.

I haven't noticed any color fading off at the moment, will definitely keep using it. Pairing this shampoo with the conditioner does helps to enhanced the appearance of my hair color - I'm now loving my healthy and radiance looking hair. I can't help it but to stock up a few more bottles from the supermarket. its definitively a product worth trailing.

After dying my hair to Ombre shades I was more than happy to give this shampoo and conditioner a go! I really feel like my hair has improved since using these every second day. The shampoo- Smells amazing which lasted right through to the next wash (sometimes longer than 2nd day). Foamed up nicely and didn't leave my hair feeling dry like a lot of shampoos do. I have noticed my hair a little more frizzy on the top of my head but it hasn't bothered me as my hair is frizzy anyway, so doesn't effect my review. I love the bottle how you can turn it upside down to get the most out of the product, and I love the professional vibrent red packaging, it really stands out! As far as shampoos go, I would repurchase for the price! When used with the conditioner I was looking closely at the colouring of my hair, I haven't noticed much difference with colour fade, but maybe over time once I have finished the bottles I will be able to see how the colour looks.
