    5 Stars 10 Minute Makeover Review with images 27/07/2010
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Great Coverage, Quick and easy to apply, Competitively priced

    Disadvantages Disadvantages None

    Ever since I was 16 I’ve had to use hair dye to cover up unsightly grey hair. Personally I blame my father, everyone on his side of the family seems to have gone grey at an early age and I guess I just happened to inherit the gene if there is one. As you can imagine, over the years I have experimented with quite a number of branded hair dyes from the cheapest of the cheap to the most expensive on the market and it has become an indispensable product in my life. The one thing hair dyes tend to have in common is the set / leave in time which for my stubborn grey’s was around the 45 minute mark ... more

    4 Stars Colour your hair in just ten minutes... 14/08/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Good results, quick ten minute application.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Strong smell of ammonia, comb applicator not easy to use.

    I regularly colour my hair and have done so for a number of years now, although I am finding it becoming a more frequent task the older I become, because of the appearance of grey hair. I do tend to stick with one or two products which I know I like, but am not afraid of trying out other brands and products particularly if they are on offer. L'Oreal is actually a brand I have used on many occasions and is one I trust, so when I saw this L'Oreal Excell 10' on offer at a promotional price of £5 in Asda recently, I didn't hesitate about buying it. I actually thought I had used Excell 10' before ... more

    2 Stars Not as Excell-ent as I had hoped 13/05/2010
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages cashmere balm is nice, smell isn't too chemical, quick to use

    Disadvantages Disadvantages colour not as expected, comb applicator not good

    On a recent visit to the hairdressers, the stylist tried to convince me to go back to a lighter colour. My hair is naturally a dark blonde/light brown colour, which I dye darker, but it hadn’t been dyed for a couple of months and most of the dye seemed to have washed out. Having had to shell out a fortune recently on various things I couldn’t really justify paying to have my hair professionally coloured so headed to boots to find some blonde dye to set off my newly cut hair. Of course, when I got there I ended up chickening out, and bought a colour called ‘Spiced Chocolate’ a dark brown colour ... more

    4 Stars An excellent choice for easy application 31/10/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages easy application, quick development time, nice shades

    Disadvantages Disadvantages faded rather quickly

    I have been dyeing my hair for over 10 years now, and always like to try out different colours. Red is a favourite shade that I often use as it suits my colouring and is flattering against my skintone. My most recent home hair colour purchase was this L'Oreal Excell 10, which was on special offer in Boots at the price of £8.00 for two. This was a reasonable deal and the price sold me on it, along with the promise of quick colour development and easy application. I selected the shade Cherry Red which is marked as 5 1/2 6. Product description: "The Excell 10 formula works faster than a classic ... more

    5 Stars Fast developing, gorgeous conditioned colour 26/04/2010
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Develops in 10 minutes, isn't messy, doesn't smell strong

    Disadvantages Disadvantages None as of yet, maybe more colours in the range would be good!

    So I've been dying my hair since about October now, and prior to that I hadn't dyed my hair myself before. So I did start with L'Oreal's casting creme gloss range, as I wasn't brave enough to commit to anything, and I am glad I didn't. I got braver with colour! So I finally decided I have a colour I adore, and I want it permanently. And as I rate the casting creme gloss by L'Oreal, I wanted to stick with L'Oreal. I felt I trusted their brand a bit more, and I know it works in the colours I use. So, firstly, this permanent colourant is not a cheap'un, it's roughly £7.99 per box. But at the ... more

    3 Stars Fast hair colouring from L'Oreal 03/08/2010
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages Quick and easy permanent hair colourant

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Doesn't cover all grey

    I've used L'Oreal Excell10 twice now and there are some really obvious benefits: it really does take only ten minutes and I found the resulting colour exactly matched my desired result. However, both times it did not cover all my grey hair, or rather it seemed to at first but then the grey quickly showed back through again in less than two weeks so I had to dye my hair again. I was a bit frustrated as this is one of the claims on the side of the pack that it does cover all grey hair. Perhaps they should add the proviso: just not permanently! I have less than 10% grey hair. This is a shame as ... more

    5 Stars L'Oreal Excell 10 = complete coverage 15/11/2010
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages easy to use, cost effective

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Colour is sometimes darker than expected

    In my opinion this is the easiest and most effective hair colourant. It does what it says on the tin, 100% grey coverage in 10 minutes. The only thing I would say about it though is be careful with the colour you choose because the finished product can end up being darker than you think and also take care not to exceed the 10 minutes and this is easy to do if you are used to the regular 25 minute shades. It is also cost effective and can be found in most supermarkets or chemists which means its easy to locate. Just one tip, when you find the right colour, write it down because its easily ... more
