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.

I loved this hair dye. I have dark brown hair and most hair dyes leave my hair feeling dry and frizzy, along with dying my skin. With this, my hair looks and feels great after dying it and it...

Horrible!!! Didn't cover any grays at all. Faded out very fast and can't say it was any less damaging than any other color of used. Will not buy again. Overpriced and simply doesn't work!
