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.

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!

Have had to change to another L'Oréal product.

I have used shade 5 as long as I can remember therefore I was disappointed with the results I achieved recently after colouring my hair. The colour did not take as well and had a kharki colour appearance at the roots, my children even commented that it was different. I had never had this before and my hairdresser suggested it might be a natural change in my hair and maybe not the product. I tried again same disappointing result. I wondered if it might be the hyaluronic acid which had been recently added as it was supposed to be the same shade, though I'm no scientist I know my own hair.I reluctantly decided to look for another product without hyaluronic acid to see if I could get my hair back to 'normal' and chose another L'Oreal Excellence Crème but in Universal ... MoreI have used shade 5 as long as I can remember therefore I was disappointed with the results I achieved recently after colouring my hair.

The colour was a very deep brown, not what I would consider light brown. It is not as ashy coloured as the shade 5 I previously used above and has a warm very deep chocolate brown appearance in the light which I actually prefer. The root coverage is on par with the previous hair colour.I have saved my review until my second use of the Universal Nudes and the results are great again and the coverage was consistent and didn't fade to kharki. It naturally grew out and needed to be covered up again as before with the old formula.I have no idea if it was the new formula but in my personal experience there were definite differences since I started using that product.I hope this honest review will be helpful to people like me who believe they had problems, there seem to be a few who have, and we can get back to feeling confident again which is what it's all about.

I give up!

So I posted 18 days ago about how the colour #3 I had used for 20 years is now suddenly darker. I tried #4 and still turns out too dark compared to what the box shows. L'Oréal reply was to use the tool on their website. I've done that. Your browns are still coming out darker than what you say they will. I've looked up reviews and other sites have user comments saying the same thing. I called L'Oréal Australia and they said it's the first they heard of it. Anyway I got #5 to see it that will work. My hair is darker than that, but if #3 and # 4 suddenly look black then maybe this one will look dark brown. Results.... my greys look a little darker than in the box, but lighter than my hair colour. However, never had this happen before, the colour faded and disappeared ... MoreSo I posted 18 days ago about how the colour #3 I had used for 20 years is now suddenly darker.

I know it's cheaper than going to a hair dresser but this is supposed to be permanent dye. For $30 a box and only lasted a week, I'd be better off colouring my hair with texters! This is it for me. L'Oréal is supposed to be a big name that you can trust. But just like Qantas, the name no longer is synonymous with quality. 10 years ago I abandoned L'Oréal skincare as it dropped ots standard. Now I'm dropping the haircare. Time to look for something better.

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.

Basically 9.1 Loreal excellence is far too ashy and dark!Should really be numbered 8.11 and not 9.1.First photo shows my pre 9.1 hair, then the second one shows the result of 9.1.... 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.

[Rewarded Review] 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...

[Rewarded Review] Easy to use and great coverage of greys

This product came at perfect time. I have been avoiding colouring my hair to get rid of the greys but with this product to trial there was no more excuses. Firstly the instructions were easy to follow and all items easily labelled. I do have large hands and found the gloves to be very small and tight to put on. Everything once used I put in the box which helped me keep the area clean. There was enough solution to cover my just below the shoulder hair length. The ammonia smell was very strong. Overall i was extremely pleased with the ease to complete this easily at home on my own. Will definitely purchase again. The result was a nice colour that covered my greys easily. After using the shampoo and the mask product my hair feels soft and healthy after the colour.

[Rewarded Review] Good colour results!

This was the first time I have used a hair colour for many years. I used L'Oreal Paris Excellence Creme 5.0 to cover some of my couple grey hairs which were coming through. I built up the confidence to do the allergy test - which makes sense, but if you want to colour your hair on impulse, isn't somethng you would wait for. I tries using the part tool, the comb tool, but decided, I just liked using the gloves. I made sure I used a towel around my shoulders. I waited for the recommended time. Washed it out. I used the nourishing mask. My hair came out nicely with a slight red tinge - which I was ok with. My hair was not dry. The next wash, I used my normal shampoo and the nourishing mask again, my hair came out a bit dry and I had to use a serum.I would buy L'Oreal ... MoreThis was the first time I have used a hair colour for many years.

It was close enough to my natural hair colour.
