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.

BOTTOM LINE: If you want to spend a few dollars more than the other products because of this one's claim to use an oil blend that won't damage your hair, use it at your own risk. You may end up...

I use the 9.0, so far the best hair colourant I've come across with. My hair looks so natural and nourished! Totally recommended.
