L'Oreal Paris Le Color One Step Hair Toning Gloss, Cool Blonde, 4 Ounce

This worked for me. My hair color was faded after 2 months of not coloring due to chemo and cold capping. I dye my hair a light brown (eSalon). I have thin hair, made thinner and more brittle by 3 rounds of chemo. I couldn't stand my washed out color (now a yellowed light brown) and gray roots any more and searched for a gentle product that wouldn't cause even more hair loss than I've already experienced. I applied this product to mostly dry, unwashed hair - I only spritzed my brushed hair with water to humidify it first. Left product on for 25 minutes. Rinsed out, then conditioned my hair gently. Result: Color is a lovely medium brown, with a very natural look. It did cover my grays a bit, at least lightened them with a nice tone. Normal hair loss, did not cause excessive hair loss, hair felt very soft and conditioned afterward. I'm very pleased and feel and look so much better. This is exactly what I was hoping for.

My hair is about 50% gray and 50% dark blond. I tried this product to perk up the color and also deep condition my thinning hair. I've read reviews that people don't like the smell, but I thought it was fine. It was as easy to use as a leave in conditioner. I got the silver color since I wanted to enhance my natural color. I let it air dry and my 3B curly hair was shiny, bouncy and looked fuller. It wasn't frizzy at all. I don't notice any difference in the color. I will add this product to my once a week routine. It is purple, so it seems like glorified purple shampoo.

I cannot say that this made a drastic difference in my hair. I don't use a lot of product that would leave yellowness in my hair. It is easy to use, I do use gloves to put it in but I take them off when it's time to rinse it out. After using it I always feel a little bit brighter and sparklier. It is deeply purple and I don't use it all the time just to make sure it doesn't dry my hair out more than it already is dry at age 71.

I get blonde highlights in my dark blonde and graying hair every 8 weeks. My colorist tones my hair, but of course it doesn't last and my blonde starts looking brassy around week 3 or 4. This products tones it back to beige blonde and makes my hair soft and silky. I use weekly to keep my hair looking great until my next appt. I've used all of the luxury brand purple shampoos, conditioners and hair masks. This product has given me the best results for the least amount of expense and effort.

Used at least 5 times and disappointed in results. I purchased the option to just add shine, no color enhancement. My hair is fine and I have not used any coloring products for over 2 years. The product does perform as a nice conditioner but I did not see any additional shine or glaze on my fine hair. My hair was very flyaway after use. Would love to try the option with color enhancement but don't want o waste the money. Looking for another product with hopes of better results.

BEST product for taking "orange-ish" tones from blonde highlights. BEST product I have ever tried & it last through 3 or 4 shampoos. Will NEVER use anything else & I've tried dozens of products, but this one DOES 100% OF WHAT IT PROMISES.

I am on my third (edit: now it's my seventh) tube of platinum pearl and I can't express how much I love this stuff. When I bleach my roots I end up with level 9 yellow hair, which I then use Shades EQ to turn into more of an icy/gray blonde. But once that toner starts fading, the yellow creeps back in and that's when I start using this product. I leave it on for at least an hour under a shower cap, which does leave just a hint of lavender in my hair but I like that and intentionally leave it on for way longer than directed because I want that hint of color. It does darken up my blonde due to leaving it on for so long but that's the look I'm going for. The smell is pleasant and my hair is SOOOO soft after I rinse, despite all the abuse I put it through with bleaching and toners. Also, I scoured the reviews before purchasing and noticed a lot of the people who included pictures and complained about the product "doing nothing" used the wrong color. They either started off with hair that was too dark for the product to have an effect, or used the incorrect color to neutralize. So for the first issue of using this product on dark hair - this is a color-depositing product, it does not lift at all so if your hair starts off DARKER than the color that is coming out of the tube, your results will be almost imperceptible, or you will get no results at all. If you use blush BLONDE on brown hair, guess what - it's not going to do anything, because it is impossible to see a lighter color on dark hair. The color may be there, but you won't see it. Look at the color of the model's hair on the box - if your hair is significantly darker than that, chances are you will not see significant results. I will say, some of the before/afters in the product photos are misleading in my opinion, which I'm not a fan of because it gives people unrealistic expectations. Like the plum color most certainly will not turn truly black hair a bright purple like the photos claim, especially if it's virgin hair unless maaaaybe you're in very bright direct sunlight, but that's another discussion. If you are attempting to neutralize undertones, you have to choose the correct color based on what tone you are attempting to neutralize. Look at a color wheel. Purple neutralizes yellow, blue neutralizes orange. If you have orange brassy roots and use purple, it won't work. If you have yellow brass and use blue, same deal. And you cannot fix a bad bleach job with a product like this - if you do not lift your hair enough and end up with really orange roots or streaks, you need to bleach again, a color-depositing conditioner is not going to fix a bad bleach job. Your hair must be light enough for the conditioner to be able to neutralize. I do wish the products were labeled with what color the product actually is because that might help but do some research and choose the color that is appropriate for your hair, or do another round of bleach if your hair can tolerate it. But this product is not going to magically fix hair that was not lifted properly. This product also must be applied COMPLETELY evenly, otherwise you will get streaks. It takes me a good 20 minutes to work this through my semi-thick boob-length hair because if you don't fully saturate every strand, guess what - those strands will not be affected and you will end up with streaky hair. I haphazardly slapped this in my hair the first time I used it and I did end up with streaks. I've since learned my lesson and I section my hair into 6 parts and apply to each section until it is fully saturated from root to tip. And if certain parts of your hair are more damaged (aka pourous) the color will stick to those parts more as well. I start with the hair growing from the nape of my neck since it's less damaged, then move up my scalp and do the hair growing from the crown of my head last, which gets more abuse from the flat iron and therefore is more porous. Ends tend to be more damaged/porous compared to roots, so if that is a concern for you, apply to hair closer to the scalp first and slowly work your way down.

Put this on in the shower after shampooing. Left it on for about 15-20 minutes. Rinsed out and multiple people thought I went to the salon. My hair was so soft and brightened up (way less yellow hues). I didn’t have to use any after shower hair products either i.e oil, leave in, etc

This is the best product ever for maintaining blonde hair. I typically use it once a week to keep my hair a nice cool tone. I just use it in the shower and let it sit a little bit. So easy to use. Makes my hair soft and looks like I just got it toned. I’ve tried other similar toners but this one works amazing for my bleached hair and is one of the more inexpensive options.

I’m really happy to see my “red” brunette neutralised to a more cool tone. Even when I choose cool colours & blue green shampoo my hair always comes up red after the first wash. It was easy to use & didn’t drip. I have mid length thick hair & I think I’ll get 2-3 uses out of the tube, which is great. I also think it’s helpful to hide my grey roots in between colours.

Really adds a lot of colour. Great for a refresh of colour in between dye jobs. My hair becomes soft and managable also.

I had doubts this would be as good as it sounded but it is! I gradually darken my hair by using it as a conditioner and it leaves my hair in good condition, not drying at all. Great way of subtley darkening hair naturally.

Cumple con l promesa de matizar un poco. No va a cambiar por completo el color pero ayuda. Deja el cabello suave y es de fácil aplicación
