    My new favourite

    5 years ago
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was the first time I have tried L’Oreal Paris Excellence Cool Creme permanent hair dye in Ultra Ash Brown colour. The result is better than I expected. My hair is shiny, healthy and has a totally natural colour. I love it. I dye my hair every month because my greys drive me crazy. Excellence Cool Crème covers up to 100% of greys. Fantastic! My scalp is young again. Even the Gentle pH purple post-colour shampoo cares for my scalp. And the anti-brassiness purple mask ensures beautiful colour and supple hair & long lasting neutralisation. L’Oreal Paris Excellence Cool Crème is my favourite hair dye, shampoo and conditioner in one box.

    Stunning glossy hair

    5 years ago
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I heard about purple shampoo and purple conditioner bringing out rich tones in grey and blonde hair but never in dark.L’Oréal have created a hair dye that includes the purple shampoo and hair conditioner/ mask. The formula is lovely. The contents have everything you need. The tones really brightened the hair colour and it’s covered my grey hairs perfectly. This has been a wonderful product to try and I will continue to use this next time I need hair dye. Glossy hair and in great condition! It surpassed anything I expected.
    ProsHigh quality, Durable

    Yes, I recommend this product.

    A new experience with a happy outcome

    5 years ago
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Previously to trying this hair dye set I’d heard about purple shampoo/conditioner being used on blonde shades to help reduce brassiness but never such a thing with dark colour.Using the actual purple shampoo & purple conditioner it was quite messy on top of the usual mess caused during the actual applying/dying process. I was really happy with the quality of all the products inside the box.Instructions were easy to follow and I’m extremely happy with the outcome. Instead of just a blanket dark brown colour there are hi/low lights that are picked up through the light. It is a great hair dye product and very happy with the outcome Excellence Cool Creme permanent hair dye 4 11 Ultra Ash Brown there are sets out there that are similarly as good but not as tricky to use.
    ProsHigh quality, Durable

    Yes, I recommend this product.

    Red!! Not ashy at all

    5 years ago
    Tried this on med brown hair with greys It’s made my hair red! Multi toned some dark nearly black and dark reddy ginger at the roots. I was really optimistic at trying This because who doesn’t want to look like Eva Longoria right? I even tried a second application after a couple of weeks to see if it would help But wast of money and now I have to try to correct my hair with the hardest colour to get rid of.. red the exact opposite of that this product claims to do

    No, I do not recommend this product.

    Great coverage

    5 years ago
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Excellent hair colour pack ! So easy to use for just roots or an all over coverage with the comb head it’s really simple to separate your hair and apply the colour ! The post shampoo is a great feature as normally it’s just rinse until water is clear but this makes it feel squeaky clean and fresh after the colouring ! The mask smells great and leaves your hair feeling full n soft just remember not use on grey hair a few weeks down the line ! Thoroughly recommend

    Nourishing, Rich colour

    4 years ago
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The L'Oréal Excellence Cool Creme collection are a beautiful collection of natural colours that are perfect for enhancing your natural colour or completely changing it. They leave your hair feeling nourished and soft and the colour lasts for ages. They are easy to apply and not at all messy or drippy and the instructions are easy to follow so you can never go wrong. Overall a great product for changing up your look or enhancing your own colour.

    Gorgeous colour

    5 years ago
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This hair dye provides the most beautiful deep, cool toned brown that is simply stunning! Many dark brown hair dyes I have used in the past have a touch of warmth to them which I am not keen on but the ingenious Anti-brassiness Purple Technology certainly does provide the luscious cool tone shade I love so much. The colouring cream has the addition of pro-keratin which actually cares and protects the hair during the colouring process, something I very much appreciate. Both the post colour purple shampoo and the Anti-Brassiness purple mask smell absolutely gorgeous and definitely ramp up the already excellent conditioning provided by the dye. The overall result for my hair was a beautifully natural colour that was glossy, felt soft, healthy, nourished and full of movement - this range is definitely for those of us who love the cool toned life!

    Yes, I recommend this product.

    Good hair dye

    5 years ago
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have enjoy using this product. First of all I like when hair colour pack have a big mixing bottle with removable nose) I can use it again and again. Texture of this hair dye is very good.smell is not strong. This amount enough for middle length hair. It covers all grey hair and stays for longer than 10 washes. Conditioner in this pack is with big amount and it possible to use it few times.smells good.happy with this product.
    ProsHigh quality
