L'Oreal Paris Casting Creme Gloss Review

I get my hair chemically straightened as it is super curly and unmanageable like lordes so permanently colouring my hair is out of the question. This though wow!, I've used iced chocolate, and dark brown probably around 4-5 times total. If you hair is quite thick and or long I would recommend buying two boxes or you won't be able to work it entirely though your hair. It is like a deep condition. My hair feels so soft, it smells so yum and I love the conditioner that comes with it. Super easy to apply and of course does not hurt my scalp at all. When I first started using this it did fade quite quick I would say after a month but then the more and more I used it of course now takes forever to fade out. I would say a solid 3 months of full colour. Which is amazing for temporary but you do have to build up to this.

L'Oreal Casting Creme Gloss is the only hair colour I have and will ever use. It's easy step by step guide is truly fail proof and I love how this washes out rather then grows out. I always use the brown tone and after colouring my hair it always looks shiny, glossy and full of life. It covers grey hair easily and no-one ever knows that I use a colour as I tend to use a colour match close to my own hair colour. I allow half an hour to do the colouring and usually do this in the shower to minimize the drips going all over the floor.

When I used this product and put the gloves on, I found them to be very small for my hands and tight wearing which wasn't pleasant.

After mixing the solution together I found it to be runny from the applicator bottle and was messier than other products that I have used.

The colour however did look good.

This product was great. I really like the colour, although all the dye I have in my hair from many years of dyeing has built up so my hair is quite dark now, and you can't tell the true colour of the dye properly unfortunately. I find when I dye my hair my roots take ages to develop :(

This product is very easy to use and does not smell too bad, like some dyes I have used in the past where you can't even breathe properly lol. Also I love the fact that when your rinsing the dye out it doesn't take ages to get the water to run clear, that's always a bonus ;)

So all in all a great little product and I would definitely recommend to others!!

My hair is thick and dark so this didn't work out as I thought? I used it after lightening my hair and the red sorta turned out like an ugly orange but I tried it again and it seemed to work better! I like it but I wouldn't try again. Any suggestions please tell me! But the instructions are easy to follow and everything is nicely packaged and labelled.

I purchased this product with the mind of covering up a regrowth line, so that I looked nice in my Christmas-in-Thailand photos. I had a regrowth line after colouring my hair for the first time last year; I hate the look of regrowth, and in hindsight I wish I had only gone with a semi-permanent at the time. So I specifically wanted a semi-permanent this time, because I only wanted a temporary fix and to not do any further damage to my hair.

First impressions, the product is easy to use and straightforward. You put the colour into the developer, and spread through your hair. Easy, and a nice short developing time (20 min). I have long, straight, relatively fine hair; and I found one bottle was more than enough to cover everything. The smell is much more pleasant than other colours I have smelt.

Rinsing the colour out doesn't take long, and the creme conditioner that comes with it is a delight; nice fragrance, nice texture, and leaves your hair silky smooth. Enough to get through 3-4 washes as well.

The colour turned out darker than I expected, but given that it does begin to fade (and I was in the sun everyday), after a week the colour was exactly as I wanted it to be.

And a huge added bonus, now a month on (when it has mostly faded out, my hair is back to its mid-brown), and my previous regrowth line is much less noticable!! And the condition of my hair is still lovely and healthy and soft. I'm a semi permanent convert now, if you want 'the look', but not the damage or long effect of permanent, then give this product a try.

The first thing i noticed when using this dye was the smell, it wasn't nearly as strong or overwhelming as other dyes that I've used in the past! The second thing i really liked about it is that unlike other brands, one box was enough for my long thick hair! The product was super easy to apply and rinsed out so quickly! I am very happy with the colour pay off (I believe my colour was dark chocolate) and it doesn't seem to be fading at all after washes! I love the smell of the conditioner it comes with too!

I have use these products since I was a teenager. I always come back to use these when I can't afford to colour my hair at the salon. I consider these to be a holy grail product in terms of at home hair colouring. I use the shade Mahogany. A beautiful reddish-brown colour that looks very natural. The box contains two bottles, gloves, instructions and royal jelly condition. Application is really easy, mix the two bottles together and you are ready to colour. I found the best way to colour my hair at home is to put the product in a mixing bowl and use a brush to apply. These colours always give you amazing coverage and shine to your hair.

They are really conditioning on your hair having no ammonia and being semi-permanent they aren't drying on your hair either. l'oreal have really thought of everything with these colour that come in a range of shade and they definitly last 6 weeks.
