This is THEE ONLY box hair dye I will use is Lioresal. As a licensed cosmetologist I can tell you many, many, actually MOST box brands are very bad for your hair. I mean no hair color is good for your hair BUT Lioresal gives a product that has healthy vitamins and nutrients in it to restore any damage. It is an amazing brand. The hair dye is beautiful, and they also have an extremly wide variety of other colors and dye products such as highlighters and many others. The hair color truly lasts very long, ot doesn't fade and it is true to color. It doesn't take even an hour to dye just 20 to 30 min. Depending on the outcome you want, personally. The instructions explain everything very well and it's extremly easy to just add together, extremly easy to apply. Doesn't ... MoreThis is THEE ONLY box hair dye I will use is Lioresal.

The after ward wash n conditioner is amazing, leaves your hair with a beautiful shine and even adds volume. I think this is the best brand as far as store bought box brand hair dyes go. Like I said, they're the only one I use, it's a very wonderful and trustworthy company and the results are proof enough!! You'll save TONS of money for the same look if not better and healthier, and even longer lasting. They're all priced at a very affordable price and if you have never tried it or any of their products, I highly recommend that you do, L'Orea Parisl is an all around innovative, trustworthy, high-quality for low prices, just an amazing company and brand. I would recommend any and all of their products to anyone and everyone out there. They are truly an amazing company, you can always count on effective and wonderful results with all of their products, in al most 36 years I've NEVER come across any bad expiierences with any their products, and I've used SEVERAL!!!!

AWFUL NEW FORMULA

Loreal excellence hair dye 4.02I want to say how disappointed I am in the new formula of this product.I have been using this number hair dye for a few years. I buy like 10 boxes at a time as I have to dye my hair every 4 to 5 weeks and use 2 boxes as I colour all over it's just easier for me. So i recently coloured my hair with two boxes. The formula is too thick!!! It's hard to get it out the bottle my hand aches from shaking and squeezing it, it leaves a green/yellow tinge on your hair and face now - I thought someone had put the wrong dye in and I was going to turn blonde instead of the usual brunette. Luckily didn't happen but that was not fun causing havoc with my anxiety that first timeBy having to shake the bottle more hard to get the dye to the comb ... MoreLoreal excellence hair dye 4.02I want to say how disappointed I am in the new formula of this product.I have been using this number hair dye for a few years.

Luckily didn't happen but that was not fun causing havoc with my anxiety that first timeBy having to shake the bottle more hard to get the dye to the comb attachment when it comes to nearing the end of the bottle, some has come out on my bathroom floor lino and stained it.I dyed hair using the new formula packs on 25th July and thought it was a one off. Now only 3.5 weeks later today being 17th august I am dying it again I don't feel like the colour has lasted long at all. As I said I can usually go 4 to 5 weeks and I use the same shampoo etc but this time it has lasted only 3.5 weeks that is disappointing.I am actually so upset about this. I have 8 packs in my cupboard and I am dreading having to use them up whilst this formula is so thick and green/yellow tinged.I am now having to look at another brand. I really am disappointed in this.

All-Over Colour

I was very impressed with this L'Oréal product; the pack contains a number of specialised products that enable you to change your hair colour in a fool-proof way...Inside a pack are 4 specialised products/ items; a colouring tube, a "developer" (which you mix the colouring into, & the product mixes with the liquid already in the developer tub), a post-colour shampoo & a hair mask.The instructions are very easy to read & guides you on the entire process with printed images, making the entire experience pretty much fool-proof.Once the product was in my hair, whilst waiting for 30mins for the colourant to take hold, I didn't experience any drips, or leakage onto the towel I had wrapped around my shoulders.Washed & dried, my hair was fully coloured, no previous ... MoreI was very impressed with this L'Oréal product; the pack contains a number of specialised products that enable you to change your hair colour in a fool-proof way...Inside a pack are 4 specialised products/ items; a colouring tube, a "developer" (which you mix the colouring into, & the product mixes with the liquid already in the developer tub), a post-colour shampoo & a hair mask.The instructions are very easy to read & guides you on the entire process with printed images, making the entire experience pretty much fool-proof.Once the product was in my hair, whilst waiting for 30mins for the colourant to take hold, I didn't experience any drips, or leakage onto the towel I had wrapped around my shoulders.Washed & dried, my hair was fully coloured, no previous hair colour in sight!The only negative experience I had, was that the "Natural Brown" colour I had chosen, was actually TOO dark - so dark in fact, that I do plan on going to the hairdressers for highlights...

Beware! Colour has changed!

I bought my usual hair colour which I have been buying for quite some time now, so I could colour my hair ahead of a small holiday abroad, to cover my grey hair regrowth and feel more confident. Since my hair has started to go grey it’s really affected my confidence.I keep a picture of the box on my phone to make sure I buy always the same, as don’t want any surprises. Noticed in store the picture of the box had changed but the number was still the same (I buy the 6.3) and it also had a small picture on the top of what it looked like before, same as in my picture, and stating “New Pack Same Shade”.Unfortunately this couldn’t be further from the truth.I applied the colour as usual. I noticed upon mixing and application that the consistency had change significantly ... MoreI bought my usual hair colour which I have been buying for quite some time now, so I could colour my hair ahead of a small holiday abroad, to cover my grey hair regrowth and feel more confident.

I noticed upon mixing and application that the consistency had change significantly and was so difficult to get it out the bottle in the first place. As I was putting it on, I noticed the product had a dark greenish hue, which it never did before, and I started to be concerned something had changed, but continued the application, trusting the brand and also you’re kind of stuck with it halfway through.Did it all by the book and when finally washed and towel dried my hair I noticed the disaster. The roots of my hair and the regrowth came out so light, almost bleached, a reddish coppery colour. A total shock given I was expecting my usual light golden brown. I was in a panic. I dried my hair and the result was evident: a much lighter colour then expected, my greys not fully covered, my roots regrowth of a much lighter coppery colour than the rest of my hair, almost looking like someone had crashed an egg on my head. I was in tears. Hate my hair and what this colour has done to them. Checking the box again and only then noticed the name of the shade had changed from my usual “6.3 Natural Light Golden Brown” to “6.3 Natural Light Golden Blond”. OMG! In what world are Light Brown and Light Blond the same shade to you?? This was the morning of the same day I was travelling away for a small holiday, taking a flight a few hours later, so there was nothing I could do to rectify the issue. I was so distraught. My hair looked so awful and had no option but to live with it. It really affected my confidence and had a negative impact on my holiday. I am now going to have to give away / throw the second box I bought and also find a new colour alternative, which let me tell you will be with another brand because I am not trusting L’Oréal with my hair anymore, this totally ruined it. I might even have to go to a hairdresser to sort out this mess.Sadly I won’t be buying L’Oréal hair colours anymore.

Green hair

I have coloured my hair for well over fifteen years, always use same colour number of Excellence natural dark brown . My stock was running low so ordered six packs online from Boots. Was going on holiday so dyed my hair. Formula was in a new style box but stated same formula. So thick it was hard to squeeze it out of the applicator bottle and when applied was a shade of yellowy green. Thought Boots had muddled up the shades as boxes open easily and had fallen into outer delivery box. My hair had such a distinctive green shade I used a different box but every box has the same result. Is this some sort of joke, cost me a huge amount of money, a huge waste of money not to mention my time and effort! Will not be able to use the remaining boxes and will need to change ... MoreI have coloured my hair for well over fifteen years, always use same colour number of Excellence natural dark brown .

Why change a perfect product into such a disgusting awful product ? I have for so many years relied on 'Excellence'.... has it been sabotaged? Feel distraught!

New Formula Not Good

This has always been my brand, and the first time I applied the new formula, it looked green 20 minutes in and I panicked, thinking I got a botched box. Rinsed it out and found my hair was still intact and greys were only slightly tinted. I tried again in 5 weeks with the same shade and another new box with the new formula. This time, I left the colour in for a good 1 hour (I usually give it 1.5 hours with the old formulas FYI) but still wasn’t to confident about this new formula. The greys did not really take to the colour as well as the old formula. This last time I gave it a full 1.5 hours and still the same. Could still see where the greys are which were only slightly tinted. The old formula covered the greys COMPLETELY. I hope L’Oréal goes back to the last ... MoreThis has always been my brand, and the first time I applied the new formula, it looked green 20 minutes in and I panicked, thinking I got a botched box.

Absolutely disappointed and it looks like I may have to change brands till they get this right.

Not excellent

Have used this product for many years. Since the recent package change, the formular is definitely different. I totally agree with all the other reviews that say how awful it is now. I have tried for over 3 weeks to get a response from L'Oréal, but to no avail, so now am going to report to trading standards, as obviously, they don't regard their customers as "worth it". This product definitely needs to be withdrawn from sale, as it no longer lives up to it's claims, and is damaging to hair. Mine, when being shampoo feels thick and coarse, like it's been bleached blonde. This certainly should not be the case with a dark hair colour, and no longer has any shine. I have used several packs of this new formular, all bought at different times from different places, so it ... MoreHave used this product for many years.

Poor Result After Years of Use - Changed Formula?

I have Used L'Oreal Excellence (Natural Dark brown- Shade 4) for more than ten years without any issues.I coloured my hair yesterday using Shade 4 in the "new packaging" and my grey roots are now light khaki. I am absolutely devastated. This was my go to product. Since this happened, I have found other similar reviews online about the dyes with the "updated" packaging.My hair was dry and product free. The dye was mixed and applied as per the instructions. The aftercare shampoo and conditioner were used as instructed.The dye never reached a dark brown shade. The only colour change was to a greeny/khaki colour. As soon as I sw this colour develop I wanted to wash it off but I was concerned that it would make it worse.

Could there be a problem with the developer?The product is also really, really thick now and you have to apply a lot of force to get it out of the bottle.The result is just absolutely awful. Please sort it out, L'Oreal.

Review for 9.1 Loreal excellence - do not recommend!!

I've given it 2 stars purely for the even coverage, non drip formula and not too harsh smell. Other than that I'd stay away. I am a blonde, my previous colour was 9.12 GarnierAfter 5 weeks colour faded and wanted to stay within my 9 depth range but maybe cool it down a bit. Well... the colour came out awful. Dark, with muddy grey shades, dare I say silvery green tone, flat and just nothing like on the box. Don't get me wrong, I never think I'll look like the box shade and always accommodate for the shade to look different. But it's not like I'm moving from shade 6, 7 or even 8. I was 9 shade already, my hair is in a great condition and never ever had such variation on the result. Basically 9.1 Loreal excellence is far too ashy and dark!Should really be numbered ... MoreI've given it 2 stars purely for the even coverage, non drip formula and not too harsh smell.

For some it may be lovely but for me it was awful result. But as an experienced hair colourer, I manage to fix it within 4 days without damaging my hair more. If you like deep ash, then you'll love it, but if not stay away as result will be much different to what you expect.
