    Brightened my Colour!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As with all of L'Oréal shampoos and conditioners, lovely smell and texture. I used a small amount after before using the Colour Protect Conditioner. Loved the shine and my colour (about 3 months old) did appear more vibrant. Only drawback for me is, having fine hair, I find that using the conditioner along with the moisturising shampoo, weighs my hair down a little so the bounciness only last a day and then I have to rewash, as my hair looks a little flat and lifeless. Tried using only the shampoo, and as the shampoo is pretty luxurious, this worked better for my hair. Will be having a recolour soon, so will then if it helps to sustain the colour.

    Formula Change Disaster

    Now, one of the worst shampoos on the market They are actually putting SLS in the conditioner (which is a detergent) which will strip your hair of moisture and cause it to produce more oil, hence the feeling of greasy hair. They have also removed the coconut oil from it as well nad pumped a load of glycerin into it. It's making my hair hard to style and leaving it greasy by the end of the day. I used it for 20 plus years, but never again. I've tried numerous alternatives, and most of them are better than L'oreal, but still not the same.

    I'm sure the formula change is a cost cutting exercise by some pen pusher with a calculator.

    Superb!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Elvive Colour Protect Shampoo benefits from pure Vitamin Cg and UV filters to help prolong my colour and protect it against UV aggressors.

    Only a small amount of this gorgeously scented shampoo (which is slightly different fragrance to the original) is needed to produce and abundance of rich lather, that rinses away cleanly, without stripping my colour, to leave my hair feeling thoroughly refreshed, nourished and perfectly prepped for my conditioner.

    The revamped packaging is fully recyclable, made with 15% less plastic, and utilises recycled materials, while the cap is even easier to remove, making topping up with their eco-refills a doddle!

    Scent

    S'il vous plaît, ramenez l'ancien parfum, j'adore vos produits, le changement de parfum ne fait rien pour le système olfactif. Comme un bon repas, le sens contribue à 50 % du plaisir et tout comme les choses que nous appliquons à notre corps, il a le même effet qu'il vous donne envie de plus ou de moins. Soit cela vous laisse satisfait, soit non. Je suggérerais de ramener l'ancien parfum car pour vos clients, c'était un gros argument de vente. Je suis vraiment désolé de devoir vous le faire savoir. J'espère que vous écouterez votre clientèle.

    Great for getting your hair looking vibrant again

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My hair can get so dull colour wise in winter and although normal shampoos make it look clean, it just ends up looking not as bright as it could. I was keen to try this to see if it would make my hair bounce back to its full potential. I may have used more than I should have done when I applied it to wet hair as it lathered up really quickly and there was a lot of it. It washed out well without leaving any residue and once dry a few people did comment on how vibrant my hair looked. That was a much needed bonus.

    Disappointing new formula

    I am so upset that I can't get the old version of Elvive color protect I've been using for years (and my mother as well). The new smell is disgusting: sickly sweet and overwhelming, stays on the hair after the wash. This is just too much. The shampoo itself got slightly worse, doesn't make my hair amazing any more. Such a shame I've purchase a big bottle. Will look for alternative, probably scent free - now I have this feeling like "any other shampoo could have same sickening smell, how would I kow buying online".

    Terrible new formula - PLEASE CHANGE

    So so disappointed. I used to love this shampoo and conditioner, it made my hair feel so clean and voluminous and fresh. Now, the nice scent is gone and my hair feels greasy the next day. I can barely leave it two days before it desperately needs a wash again! It leaves it coated and feels heavy. Why change the formula? Everyone loved the previous one, a classic example of why change something if it isn't broken. Honestly, the new formula could not be worse.

    BRING BACK THE OLD FORMULA!

    New formula

    Why have you changed what was a fantastic daily use shampoo and conditioner, so popular it was sold in bulk sizes in every store? Now my hair is greasy immediately after washing, it’s irritated my scalp and it smells artificial. If the prices had gone up to produce I would have paid more! I’ve now thrown out 5 bottles as even my husband won’t use it. Honestly I’m upset, after 7 years using every day I now cannot find anything of similar quality.
