    Great Colour not for long

    7 months ago
    Not being able to purchase my usual hair colour brand…this shade seemed similar…so decided to give it a try. Really pleased with it quality, easy to use, great gloves with a generous amount of conditioner. Application was easy and really loved its grey coverage…BUT the colour which was rich and vibrant didn’t last…after 2 weeks it faded and became dull, 3 weeks on its now showing all my grey roots!

    No, I do not recommend this product.

    I have used this product for several years, two colours in particular. Leaves my hair a vibrant rich colour, covers 90%of my greys and leaves my hair in a lovely condition.

    Great colour but greasy hair after application

    2 years ago
    I've been using this hair dye for many years now and love the colour on me and the fact it has no ammonia. It covers greys very well. The colour fades a bit over time but don't they all. However, with the latest name rebranding, packaging change and, I assume formula adjustment, something went wrong somewhere. Every time I colour my hair it comes out so greasy, despite shampooing the hair twice and regardless of what conditioner or hair products I use after. This is so disappointing... I miss the original formula!

    No, I do not recommend this product.

    Frozen Brown is actually Mahogany

    3 years ago
    I have used Olia for years, usually '5 Brown' and thought I'd go for a slightly different shade ,'5.15 Frozen Brown'; wow what a mistake! Firstly my head was stinging alot which never usually happens and when I rinsed it out my roots are now a very reddish brown. Yeh so I would avoid this shade and stick with 5 Brown if you're considering having a change.

    No, I do not recommend this product.

    Did not cover grey hair

    3 years ago
    It didn't cover my grey hair even though says 100% grey coverage. It made my hair so stringy in the ends and dry it looks horrible I feel like its damaged my hair and didn't even cover the grey. They should be sued for this kind of crap. Been trying to grow my hair for so long now only to have to cut all the damaaged it caused

    No, I do not recommend this product.

    Did not cover my grey hair

    4 years ago
    Horrible! I have waisted two boxes of colour and the result is that I still need to repeat it as my hair are still grey! Waste of money, time and risk to damage my hair.

    No, I do not recommend this product.
