L'Oréal Paris ELVIVE Colour Protect Shampoo Review

This product is an excellent choice for those who want salon quality product on a supermarket budget. The shampoo is easy to apply, quite thick, lathers well and smells lovely without being overwhelmingly perfumed. It left my hair feeling clean without that stripped bare feeling. My colour is still looking bright, shiny after 2 weeks of using this product. I will definitely continue to use this shampoo.

I ripped this open as soon as it arrived as I had just had my hair coloured and it was desperately needing a good shampoo. I read the instructions and immediately started to lather up. I really like the faint scent, it's white in colour and not to thin in texture. It goes on easily and 9you don't need a lot to get a lather. After one rinse I could feel the difference - my hair felt clean. I shampooed again with only a tiniest bit of shampoo and got a great lather again. The result was easy to handle hair with a definite feel of cleanliness and a healthy look.

I was super happy with the timing of this trial as I had my colour booked in the same day that this was due to arrive in the post! This meant I could do this with my hair freshly coloured and see if this product really could preserve it.

The packaging is really nice, I think it makes it look like a slightly more expensive product which is always a plus.

It smells divine, and lathers up nice and thick, so feels very luxurious. Washes out easily, and no residue left behind.

I can still smell the product when I have blow-dried my hair, which is really nice. It feels full and smooth and is definitely more shiny. I have noticed that my hair is still looking as fresh as it did after going to the hair dressers, and I wash my hair EVERY morning, so I think that is a great sign. I feel like my colour is being preserved better than normal, and I will buy this again at the supermarket as it is no more expensive than my normal product – except I will get the bigger bottle.

I loved the feel of my hair after using this shampoo. It bubbled up nicely, and washed out well, but must of helped maintain my colour as after two weeks I am still getting comments about the colour of my hair. Works well with the conditioner.

This review is hard to do in regards to separating the shampoo and the conditioner as they both work in conjunction with each other, so in consideration of this I found both the shampoo and the conditioner fantastic, I have many greys and had my hair coloured just prior to receiving these and so far (about 4 weeks later) it still seems to be holding the colour which to me is awesum as normally they would be starting to pop through now. I also found that my hair looked a lot healthier which was also a positive. All in all definitely a product I would use again.

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.

I love the smell of nice and floral but obviously this productvdoesn't just have a good smell. After a using this shampoo a few times I could feel that my hair color more shiny and soft. I have medium lenght, thin hair which just color before try this shampoo. I whish that I could have some more time to try before to see the result in long term. Over all I love this product!!

This shampoo (& conditioner) is my brand new favourite :) I was stoked to make the trail team on this as I had often eyed up the brand in the supermarket, the shiny labels on the red bottles really stand out and I probably would have brought after my current shampoo ran out. I had just coloured my hair again a couple of days before the shampoo arrived so it was fantastic timing, usually when I shampoo the first time after coloring I see a little red in the shampoo but I didn't notice it at all with this product. Oh... and the smell! The shampoo and the conditioner both smell divine, even good enough to get a comment from himself, much nicer than the chemical flowery scent I'm familiar with from other colour protect brands. My hair felt clean without that stripped tangly feel that I sometimes get and once followed by the conditioner was beautifully shiny & manageable. Definitely 5 kisses from me, the shampoo I was using is in the bin already :)

I received the Shampoo & Conditioner to trial, and both were fantastic. I made sure to freshly dye my hair, before trialing the set. I found that the set did do exactly what it says it would do. It protected my new colour, and made it last longer, did not fade so much every wash/condition. Of course some of my colour did wash down the drain, due to being brand new, but less than what I would have expected! The actual shampoo and conditioner are very easy to apply, and smell really good! However be careful not to get any soap bubbles in your eye when you rinsing off as it can sting a little :). The bright red packaging is attractive, and screams 'colour protect', the set is affordable and definitely a set I will be purchasing again. Overall, I definitely recommend the set, in my opinion it is the whole package!
