Hair Colour

Soft and silky hair!

Advantages: Brought out my natural highlights
Disadvantages: None!

Since I was about 16 I have been dying my hair, from blonde to red to brown. I am also always trying different dyes every few months as so many come onto the market I like to make sure I am using one of the better ones. However after buying and using the loreal casting crème gloss, I will no longer be using all different dyes as this particular type of loreals hair dyes are magnificent! The boxes are extremely helpful as you will find a picture on ...
...are going to be using and on the top is again a picture of the type of colour your hair will be. On the side it shows three pictures from blond, brown and dark brown underneath is what each one will look like if your going to dye your hair this colour. I think this is really helpful as you can see whether you should choose something lighter or darker depending on what colour you want to go for. Once home you'll find the two parts which need to be ...

Review of L'Oreal Casting Creme Gloss

it does work well WHEN YOU TAKE YOUR TIME!! please read.

Advantages: multi tones give a natural look, far better than a one all over colour which can look dull
Disadvantages: a bit time consuming

i have tried a couple of the couleur experte dyes.including the macaroon. and when you take your time,the result can be very natural and nice. i will be re dying my hair on monday (todays saturday). this will give my hair enough time for the natural oils to come through and protect my hair, and most importantly my scalp. i think the trick is definately to test it on a strand first,to check how long you need to leave it on for,and what colour you ...
...we all know that the colour on the box can drastically varie from person to person.so why take the risk of just piling it onto your whole head before knowing the end result???? take your time and do the test strands!!!!!!!! when you do the highlights, dont go over the top, you just want to select a few strands around the front top part of the head. and very fine. go online to watch tips on how to highlight hair at home.i found them very helpful.less ...

Review of L'Oreal Couleur Experte

Works fine for me!!

Advantages: Great if you are just starting to go grey
Disadvantages: Doesn't last 6 weeks

Ok firstly I have to say that I am in my late 30's and I started using JFM about a 18 months ago when my grey hairs started to become that little bit too 'obvious'. Most of the grey is on the sides of my head and I think one of the main reasons it has worked for me is because I started using the product early enough to avoid it looking obvious I had used it! Also I keep my hairstyle quite short (not cropped tho) so I guess that helps. My hair is ...
...works best for me. Here are some tips and tricks that I have found useful, (once you have done the allergy test to check it is ok for your skin). Hope they might help you too! 1) Before applying JFM use some vaseline (petroleum jelly) around your hair-line and your ears. The vaseline is an excellent barrier cream that helps to avoid the dreaded stained forehead etc! The vaseline can be easily wiped off after rinsing with some tissue or a towel. ...

Review of Just For Men Shampoo-in-Haircolour

The Natural Look

Advantages: A good natural effect
Disadvantages: None

...against. I haven't tried a Clairol Nice and Easy for years and as I looked along the available colours I saw one called golden brown. I have light brown hair with more that its fair share of grey, in fact to be truthful underneath near the roots my hair is white. I feel that you have to be very careful with your choice of hair colour as you reach a certain age, its no good flinging yourself headlong into the fashionable vibrant colour range. The ...
...what so ever. The Clairol Nice and Easy does have the strength to cover grey hair and it does leave the hair looking natural. The semi-permanent colour will last approximately 24 washes and costs around £4. The whole process is quick and easy, make sure that you use an old towel as the colourant stains the towel. I didn't find that the colour stained my skin and I had no irritation at all. Depending on your hair you may not have to leave the colorant ...

Review of Clairol Nice 'n Easy

I'm blond again

Advantages: Easy, safe enough :))
Disadvantages: none

I have naturally dark blonde hair, but decided to colour with 5.5 Loreal excellence colour. After about 2 years I decided to go natural again.Then I used once Garnier pre lightener - that was awful :(( So I coloured my orange hair brown. again... But around month ago I wanted to go natural color and bought Loreal pre lightener as I colour with Loreal... I was quite scared about aftermath of lightening my hair as I had very bad experience. But... ...
...important - no, well almost no, damage to hair. no more damage than from colouring it self. And it took colour off brilliantly... Coloured ends was dark blonde but my natural hair (grown roots) was very nice platinum blonde. So I even wasn't embarrassed to go out without recolouring emidiatly my hair. And I recommended pre lightener to my friend who bleaches her hair to get platinum blonde from natural blonde and she loves Loreal - easy and no damage, ...
