description

Garnier Olia is unlike any other traditional, permanent hair color. Powered by a 60% oil blend formula with natural flower oils, Olia propels colorants deep into the hair, giving you vivid color results and 100% gray coverage. The oils help to reverse roughness and dullness without hair feeling weighed down. The non-drip formula has no ammonia, so it smells great as you apply. The end result? More brilliant, long-lasting color and hair that is hydrated, silky, looks full and up to 3x shinier than uncolored, unwashed hair. What’s in the hair dye kit? A developer applicator, a colorant tube, after color conditioner, as well as a set of gloves and the instruction sheet.

My hair is salon-highlighted and I just wanted to cover the gray roots. I ended up with very dry ends after the root application. If I could do it over again, I would have just rinsed it off...

Like most of the negative reviews I agree with, I too had "extremely" dry hair from this product! Did they not test this product on persons with mid-length hair before placing it on market? I was...

Not a fan. I'm glad that I tried it, because I would always be curious to see if I were one of the few that liked it; I am not. I was very excited about this. I thought that maybe it would be a...
