Misleading instructions

11 months ago
Coloured hair as per the enclosed instructions and it stated wash hair as usual after dying. I have since read elsewhere this is not what you do as the dye changes to a shampoo and you should only rinse. First time using Olia and found instructions confusing, I feel colour will probably not last because instructions said shampoo as usual immediately after. Olia please amend /clarify nstructions.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Not great colour

a year ago
Darker than I expected when I first dyed my hair which was a light brown. It looked almost black. Went abroad, hair now a nice chocolate brown. No idea if that is the colour fade or sun exposure. Either way, drastic change within a week!

Don’t waste your money!

a year ago
Purchased and applied for the 1st time ever using this product today. It’s so runny, and stains your scalp. To wash off the water was continuously the colour used! The actual colour was a nice shade, but as I’m white at the roots I also have to use a brown for my base colour. I will buy another brand to do that.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Awful

Usually use 5.0 but now a bit dark, 6.0 doesn’t cover the greys very well and leaves your hair so dry and in awful condition so going back to 5.0

No, I do not recommend this product.

Turned hair dark brown/black!

a year ago
The garnier olia in 6.0 turned my hair a dark brown almost black colour. It was nothing at all like the picture - for reference my hair was dark blonde before. I’ve used garnier olia 6.3 and it went a nice light brown but this is so much darker. Avoid!

No, I do not recommend this product.
