    A vivid warm red - suits olive and warm skin tones

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My hair is naturally a level 1-2 but has been lightened to a level 4. This formula mixes easily but comes out rather runny - so be careful to cover clothes and carpets. I’ve had really bright hot roots in the past from dying my hair with an intense hair colour with lift, so I didn’t leave it on my roots for too long. This worked fine. There is ammonia in the formulation so it does dry your hair out - not for already damaged hair and it smells really strong. That said the shade came out a warm red that was flattering for my skin tone. I’m trying not to wash it too much but plan to top it up with temporary hair colour in between doing my roots to keep it looking vibrant.

    Please PLEASE bring back the old formula

    I have been red for 12 years and I have been using the Loreal Paris Preference brand since day one but in the previous colour formula of Pure Scarlet and London (very intense red). I don't know WHY thet changed the formula again but this version is FAR too light. It's a good 3 shades lighter than the previous formula which means it fades so much faster and makes it look so washed out. It's such a shame because this was my ride or die (I mean ride or dye...?)

    Now I will have to find another brand because this is just unusable on my hair. Please, PLEASE bring it back - I am begging you.

    Faded so quickly

    Changed hair colour to Bright Red from copper, the gel is quite runny and can make a bit of a mess if you're not careful. This smell isn't too overpowering which is good. However, the dye isn't particularly strong as it has faded so much already after 2 washes particularly on my ends which has never happened with other brands before. So I currently have very vibrant red roots and front section and almost watermelon/grapefruit coloured ends and back despite using the conditioner and red enhancing shampoo. I even tried reapplying the colour but it refuses to take leaving me to believe that this colour isn't suitable for already coloured hair. Wouldn't recommend and will be going back to Garnier Ultra Colour or Swarzkopf Live.

    Not good for mid-dark brown hair

    Despite the pictures on the box for each starting hair colour, my medium brown hair just went a darker brown after using the “bright red” dye. There is a definite red cast to my hair in strong sunlight but nothing like the results shown. My hair also felt very very parched and frizzy after the using this, substantially more so than with other permanent at home box dyes, even compared to other L’Oréal ranges. Would never purchase any colour from this range again myself nor recommend it to anyone with dry hair or any shade from medium brown or deeper.

    Good colour but damaged hair.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used it few times. Smell is ok. Easy to apply. Great colour as a result. But it is damages hair so much. When i read more careful about it i realise that this product wirking in few steps. First step it is making your hare eithout tone with peroxid and after it is coloured your hair in red tone. Colour is fantastic.very bright. But after just few washes is washing out and not so bright and glowing any more. I will not buy it again because it will kill my hair.

    Great dye for a budget bold colour!

    I have used this dye twice now and I love it. I have naturally medium brown hair and this brightens my hair to a vibrant red with no bleach which is amazing. It does fade so redying hair every 8 weeks or so is necessary, but my hair faded to quite a pretty reddish copper so I’m not mad. It leaves hair feeling soft, doesn’t smell too strongly and the gel is really good for being able to see where you have and haven’t applied due to on your hair. I love it!

    Lovely red tone achieve on my dark hair

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to apply hair dye (like all Loreal hair dyes) but this was applied to my already dark hair so didn't achieve the colour on the box, as you would expect putting this colour over dark hair BUT did get a lovely dark brown / deep red highlight / tone (as such) colour from it. Obviously the roots are brighter (more red tone) but overall loved the look ! As always after using any loreal colour, after rinsing and conditioning my hair felt and smelt great

    Amazing vibrant colour!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Absolutely fantastic hair dye! I used this to dye the ends on my daughters brown hair & I can’t believe how vibrant the red turned out from being dyed straight onto her natural hair colour without having to bleach it first like you have to do with many other brands of bright hair colour dyes, so this dye is definitely much kinder to your hair. Quick & easy to use with outstanding results, I highly recommend & will definitely be buying more!

    Stunning, vibrant colour!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When i first received this product..i was a bit apprehensive that this colour might be a bit too intense for me..but was excited to see the outcome! The colour is easy to mix and apply without fuss and minimal mess and the scent is not overpowering. The reinforcing conditioning treatment smells amazing and leaves hair feeling gorgeous soft and managable! The finished colour was vibrant, rich and multi tonal...i love it!!

    Great for natural hair

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Lovely Vibrant Hair colour. As you can see from photos that it takes really well to natural hair colour but not so well on the bottom half where my hair was previously coloured that I have been growing out. So I would highly recommend this product if your going to use it on natural hair and not for pre coloured hair. It leaves hair feeling and looking healthy unlike other products tried in the past.

    Lovely colour, damaging to hair

    The colour is exactly what I wanted it bright and vibrant which I wanted but I’d doesn’t last and fades really quickly after the first few washes my hair was watermelon colour. Also it completely ruined the health of my hair. It felt dry and broken. I’ve been bleaching my hair for years but have never had it damage my hair like this red. So for that reason I will avoid it.

    Very stunning red!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had high hopes when I saw the beautiful red colour on the box and I'm so happy I wasn't disappointed! The colour was easy to apply and there was plenty of dye for my passed shoulder length hair. The colour is absolutely stunning and my hair feels and looks soft, shiny and healthy. I love seeing it in the sunlight because it looks very vivid and radiant

    Lovely red colour

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This works well on my dark brown hair, turning it a lovely deep red. Covers up any grey hairs easily. The hair dye itself is easy to use - the colour itself comes in a small bottle as opposed to a tube, which is appreciated. As well, the conditioner is a tube, rather than a sachet. Just makes life easier. The conditioner smells good too.

    Lovely shimmer!!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This hair dye is lovely. The colour is long lasting, which is surprising when it's such a bright colour.
    It was easy to apply and goes quite far. My hair length is just below my shoulders and it applies all over quite easily.

    The shimmering effect is a lovely touch. My hair looks healthy and shiny. Lovely hair dye

    Doesn’t last as long

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I normally use another brand of bright colours and their red is a lot brighter than this turns out with me. Unfortunately this one originally comes out quite a dark auburn rather than bright red. Ive also found that the colour washed out a lot quicker than my usual brand. I dont think i will be swapping over soonm

    Fab

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this colour. It was super bright, it was conditioning and didnt leave my hair feeling like straw or damage the ends. Unfortunately it faded quickly but all reds do on my hair so this was expected. I dont have any greys so can't comment on that coverage but the coverage on my naturally ginger hair was great.

    Great colour

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow what an amazing colour ! Really easy to use and apply !( Little truck tho put some Vaseline around your hairline and ears to help get rid of any colour) ! My hair feels really soft after using the reinforcing conditioner! The colour is really vibrant and my hair has an amazing shine to it ! Love it

    Bold bright colour

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Lovely colour - bold and bright with an almost metallic like shimmer. It covered my greys really well and left my hair feeling in good condition and looking shiny. The instructions were easy to follow, it smelled nice and my hair was left looking lovely. Would recommend.

    Wow!!!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this to colour my sister’s hair which is very light brown and the colour was so brilliant and the shine OMG, I have never seen a hair so shiny after colouring. The texture of the colour is kind of like gel. You have to try it yourself to believe it, so good.

    Shiny!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If I have to use a box dye, L'Oreal is my go-to brand. The level of coverage and shine on this is amazing! The colour comes out on my hair tone exactly as shown on the box. The only point to consider is that you may need 2 boxes for particularly long, thick hair.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If you want something that stands out in a crowd, choose this brightly dense colour, wow!

    Feel like a new woman

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Fabulous colour, my new fave. I wanted to take a chance and try something different, so glad I do. I feel like a new woman, it’s given me a spring in my step and looks absolutely gorgeous. The colour is very glossy and vibrant, I’m getting compliments all day

    Love it

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was firstly attracted to the bold colour. And what a colour it is. I was not disappointed. Very easy to use and follow the instructions. Goes on easily and I made no mess in the bathroom. Smelt lovely, nothing chemical about it. And great vibrant results

    WORST HAIR DYE I HAVE EVER USED!!!!!

    I dyed hair four days ago, have washed it and used the conditioner that comes with it.
    My pillow is covered in red dye, after a shower my hair towel is red, and just a few minutes after I cleansed my face and neck and the cotton wool turned red!

    Not as good as previous red

    Tried this as an alternative to the previous red (P67 Pure Scarlet/London). Not as easy to apply, the colour wasn't as nice and it faded within two weeks. Please bring back the previous formulation - it was an awesome colour and would last well!

    Not my preference, but not bad.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I feel like my natural hair colour was too dark to get the best results from this hair dye, but it still gave my hair a boost of colour - it just wasn't quite as bright as I'd hoped for. It was super easy to apply, and the smell is pleasant too.

    Stunning colour

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was a good colour, easy to use and not and no over powering smell. The conditioning treatment left hair soft and bouncy. Good results, but need to see how colour is after a few washes, but so far a pleasing result.
