L'Oréal Paris ELVIVE Colour Protect Shampoo Review

I always use a salon shampoo and conditioner and was keen to try a supermarket brand to compare. I found it to be good, a little went a long way and it left my hair not feeling dry which is good. I have short hair so i wash my hair everyday, otherwise i can't seem to style it! I found the smell pleasant too. I think a nice smell is important! I don't have anything negative to say about this shamoo and i would defiantely use it again. I would recommend to others.

Also a great shampoo with a beautiful smell. It makes my hair feel soft and actually feels like its working. For a supermarket brand cheap but good.

After testing this shampoo I was blessed with the result on my hair; it left is shiny, bouncy and healthy looking. The formula smells pleasant and foams well, a little of this product goes a long way. While it states it seals in colour I found there was colour fade which is to be expected with high maintenance red, I would not expect it to lock it in for 28 washes unless you were working with natural tones.

I love how after using the shampoo with the conditioner you have a beautiful soft feel with shine and my highlights appeared brighter. It is hard to judge the 2products independently as I used them together, but I really loved the feel after the shampoo faze.

The beautiful bright, eye catching bottle caught my eye in the supermarket before I received my trial sample. The bottles aren't too big to hold, and fit in the hand easily. The smell is lovely and not over powering, the texture of the shampoo is smooth and silky. I have shoulder length hair and so I used about a 2 teaspoons worth of product. My hair is also quite thick and this amount was just enough, it lathered up beautifully and it didn't feel like my hair was completely stripped of everything, so my hair still felt nice and not 'rough'. I really liked this product and actually had to go and buy it again after my daughter came to visit and took my bottles with her! I'll definitely keep using it!

What a great product, it smells amazing and leaves your hair feeling really soft, silky and shiny. The packaging is great easy to hold and also brightly coloured so is easy to find at the shops. I have mid length hair and only needed about a 20cent piece sized dollop to wash my hair. It foamed well. The size of the bottle was good and think it is definitely value for money. I also found that my hair still felt nice if I didn't have time to use the conditioner as well

I really enjoyed using this shampoo. The smell lasted and kept my hair nice and manageable as well as maintaining the overall colour well. I haven't been a big fan of L'Oreal hair products before but this has changed my mind.

This product was a pleasure to use. I found that my hair felt soft and not dry after using it. I am used to using a salon only product to protect my colour. I used this product and I am unsure from the time I started using it if it did protect my colour. My colour wasn't new (had been coloured three weeks previously) so was at the point where it was fading anyway. I liked how nourished my hair felt after I had used it together with the conditioner. If I wasn't buying my normal salon shampoo to protect my colour I would likely buy this one from the supermarket.

I have used numerous Colour Protection Shampoos due to having vibrant red colour throughout my hair. This product had a lovely smell that remained in my hair for the day. Packaging was appealing and eye catching which would be good on supermarket shelf. Only a small amount of shampoo was required (less than usual for my thick hair) and it lather up well. I felt my hair lacked a bit of life and became relatively flat. For the amount of time used there was no significant difference in colour fade noted against other products.

First of all i really enjoyed the scent of this shampoo. I did notice that it made my hair shiny when i was trialing it. I would have loved to have tested this for longer but because I have quite long thick hair. This bottle lasted me 2 weeks ( washing my hair once every 2-3 days) I also noticed that even after 3 days it wasn't too greasy at the roots which for me is usually a problem after 2 days. I used this shampoo the day after i had my hair dyed. Usually it would take a few washes to make it soft again. But after using this shampoo once I noticed that my hair was soft.
