L'Oréal Technique Excellence Crème Permanent Hair Color - Long-Lasting Hair Dye, Rich Formula With No-Drip Application, Superb Gray Coverage

Have used for years to cover my grey hair

Great

I have ordered 5.1 med ash brown many times with no problems. This last order, when I opened the tube, the color came out purple, that was unusual, my color always comes out a whitish color. I threw it away and opened another one I had and it was the right color.Now I’m less one. Pay attention.

Thankful Amazon has this color still available. I've been having trouble finding it elsewhere in stock or affordable! I use this on a regular basis. So grateful I can get it in a timely manner and specifically the color I use!

Por meses compré este tinte que es muy bueno, su precio era de 6.50 a veces 4.59 y hace 7 semanas subieron su precio al doble creo un poco mas, es mejor comprarlo en tu tienda local o en otro lugar es mas barato

I'm a guy, but I try to look for value in what I buy. I buy big expensive toys so I have to save in other places. This is one of the places I save some money. I do not color hair for a living so if you do as I indicate I do and your hair falls out or turns blue, you likely have introduced another factor. If you have longer hair or use other products on your hair, you need to follow directions - not what I am doing.I really like separate dye and developer. The boxes have way too much for a guy or gal with short hair.And likely not enough for many women. It is WAY cheaper to buy larger tubes and developer separately. The only reason I'd suggest the box is for finding the color you need. A big tube of wrong color will make one very sad, but most places will take it back. I'm not sure about Amazon's return policy.My intent is to hide gray and I have a dishwater blond hair color. I tend to shift between the light ash brown or a darker ash blond color - going lighter in summer. I keep my hair really short so I don't worry about damaging my hair. I do all my hair every time and honestly, this product makes my hair softer somehow. I don't know the science behind it all but it does.I'm lucky to have lighter hair. The color shift isn't so noticeable as you wash the dye out. I try to dye my hair right before I cut it - I feel like just cut hair naturally shows more color than the tips would. In either case, many people don't know I color my hair. I don't hide the fact, but the woman that cuts my hair has made comments about the day I go gray. Although she may just be working the tip jar.For a guy, I highly suggest the creme products also. It's so much easier to contain the color where you want it. I don't mix exactly either - I just use a disposable paper 6oz cup (that I buy for rinsing my mouth), and shoot for half developer & creme. I usually do this on a weekend so I can take more time getting ready. I mix quickly, toss on hair with the mixing brush & I get my finger into it around the edges to ensure I don't miss anything. I clean everything right then (cleaning on the spot is best to prevent staining - be sure to scrub nails if you use your hands any) and for 25 to 30 minutes, I relax and drink a cup of coffee. Then I jump in shower & clean thoroughly. I used to use a towel around my shoulders while it set, but after I gained confidence it won't run, I just run around shirtless til shower time. Because my hair is short, It likely only gets colored twice before it is cut off so it doesn't get damage from over processing.One other tip - if you get dye on your face or something, try the developer to remove it.

In the last couple of years, no matter what hair color I buy in a box at the store, it didn't cover all the gray. I would have gray hair around my temples. In the last year, I noticed that no color would really cover the gray hairs in my roots. After 3 shampoos, the gray hair was back and my color was faded as if it had been over a month since coloring. I was very down. I started looking for something better and found this product. It covered all my gray hairs and after a week, it's still the beautiful brown color I love. I will be purchasing this from now on. I would definitely recommend it if you have resistant gray hairs and/or your color isn't lasting. This made me feel pretty instead of feeling like an old lady with faded hair with gray shining through.

Unfortunately, I started turning grey in highschool.I was in my early 30s and it was time to re-dye my hair again as the Grey's were starting to be very noticable but just didn't get around to it.. One day a guy walked pass me in a grocery store and said "Excuse me grandma" GRANDMA????????????????? I DON'T EVEN HAVE KIDS YOU IDIOT!!!!Ticked me off lol. Well let's just say i try to keep up with my hair coloring nowadays lol. I'm 55 now and I am about 85% natural grey but I am not ready to embrace it yet.Plus my hubby is 46 and he doesn't care for my grey hair at all although we've been together for 16 years.This brand works best for me and I've tried almost everything.I get Full coverage that last for weeks and I just love it.I've tried several colors like red, magenta, Onyx and natural black.I will stick to what works and it's this brand..
