For years I have always wanted Ariel hair & no matter what hair dye I used the red wasn't as bright as what I wanted - Bare in mind that my natural hair colour is dark brunette. I finally bit the bullet back in April 2023 & bleached my hair, whilst my hair was okay with the first bleach the thought of doing it again was to much plus I didn't feel comfortable to bleachy own hair (I'm lucky I have a very good friend who did hairdressing at school but I didn't want to constantly bug her!). I Googled different brands, this was the one that many people had said it did exactly what it stated on the box so I ended up buying it & honestly have never looked back since! This perfect as you don't need to do a separate bleach dye THEN use hairdye in top - Saves you alot of time in my opinion, my hair always comes out fire truck red & I have never had a problem. 2 years later, I still buy this & normally in bulk as I only dye the roots now (every 4 months) then the rest of the hair with crazy colour fire red.

As someone with naturally thick, coarse, black hair, I can confidently say that this stuff works WONDERS mixed with 40vol developer!My hair is left exactly the dark red I wanted!I have layered hair with my longest length being slightly below my hips, and my shortest mid-back. It took me 3 tubes, however, I ran out at the end :( so I assume it would've taken me 3.5 tubes for my hair specifically.I would definitely not advice to use 40 vol if you have thin hair, in my case, my hair is very coarse so any less vol would simply not be as effective.After being told by multiple salons that bleach was the only way to dark red hair, and trying multiple red box dyes, I decided to give this a go. Note: I used colour remover first and the box dye was very old (8 months+)The application was very easy and took me about an hour. After saturating every strand and leaving it on for another hour, the colour is unreal. It's been through multiple washes now and the colour is still very much vibrant.Compared with hair dyes I've used in the past, my hair was definitely not as damaged, even as I used 40 vol developer, with no excess hairfall.Will definitely be continuing to use L'Oréal Hicolor to touch up my roots!Hope this helps x

I've had rich red hair for 15 years. Always used majirouge red. It's been discontinued and I had a right panic. Find some research and went with this. Which was huge for me after the same hair dye for so long. I used 20vol developer. 30 mins on the hair. Really pleased. I'll put a semi perm red on top for depth like always. Really happy to have found a replacement for my old faithful!I have medium brown hair that lifted great (about a hair dresser colour 7)

I love love love this colour, it’s so unique that people always ask where I got it, I love how it suit my skin color as a black person, I mixed both red and magenta to have like a cherry colour. It doesn’t fade quickly at all, the only downside is side that when water gets on your hair, it can stain your clothes, asides that it’s a great buy

This is how I used to have my hair colour. Then I found a home use kit that was a reasonable price and used that happily for quite a few years then the cost of living etc went up and the cost of the hair colour kits went up. This was when I had to do something so I went back to using the old peroxide and hair colour again. Especially the offer on this item was a something to think of. And with me having very short hair most of the DIY hair dye kits go in the bin. You can't keep it because it expands in the plastic bottle and can blow as the bottle gets thinner the more it expands and it can go with an audible pop and make a mess. At least this way my friend can use as little or more as is needed. When I was trying to find the colour I wanted at a price that wasn't just silly I spotted this one. I thought it was very cheap then after getting them I found the difference in the amount you get and then the penny dropped, these are smaller tubes. But even with that this is the only colour that was as close as the one I wear. I won't change now I've found it again I'm staying with this seller and product.

Absolutely, my favourite

It’s the shade I wanted extreme red, perfect for me my skin tone, product is good but last max 2 weeks for me as I have white hair on the front head line.

Cheveux parfait

tinta top, la rifaccio ogni 5/6 mesi (sono mora scura)

Heb bruine haren , de kleur heeft heel goed gewerkt

This has consistently been my “go-to” for a nice bright red. I naturally have a dark auburn color. I can go from that to fire engine red in less than an hour. It doesn’t fry your hair. Years ago, I also had luck using this dye with previously box dyed hair. I recommend it to everyone as I receive a lot of compliments on my hair. It lasts a LONG time if you maintain a routine of washing your hair in cool water only. I usually only have to touch up the overall color (using red manic panic) every 2 months. It’s really easy to do root touch ups with this too. I have always used it for all over color rather than highlights.

Ich hatte vorher ein dunkelbraun. Am Ansatz war ich im Bereich 5.0 und in den Längen bei 6.1 ( kaltbraun) bis in den Spitzen bei 7.4 (dunkelblond kupfer).Vor ca. 4 Jahren hatte ich mal mit Henna die Haare rot gefärbt und die Farbe war abgesackt beim Färben. Damit hatte ich damals keinen schönen Rotton mehr und entschied mich wieder auf meine Naturhaarfarbe zu wechseln. Da kein Friseur mir helfen wollte, wagte ich damals eine Intensivtönung und mischte mir von Dialight 6.0 mit 3% Oxidation und entgegen der Aussage der Friseure brannten meine Haare nicht weg, sondern konnten sich 4 Jahre gut erholen. Die Prozedur wiederholte ich alle paar Monate mit der Intensivtönung.Wenn man aber rote Haare liebt, zieht es einen dahin immer wieder zurück. Blondieren wollte ich nicht und 6% Oxidation erschien mir zu heftig. Daher entschied ich mich für 4% Oxidation. Ich bin keine Friseurin, habe aber schon viel mit Farbe experimentiert.Ich empfehle als Ausstattung:- 1 schwarzen Friseurumhang- Einweghandschuhe- schwarze Handtücher- Vaseline- Einweg Duschhaube- Pinsel und Anrührschüssel- 1 Waage- ConditionerZuerst habe ich mir die Haare gewaschen, mit dem Föhn getrocknet und erst dann angefangen mir die Ansätze, Ohren, Hals und Nacken mit Vaseline einzufetten. Ihr solltet mit schwarzen Handtüchern das Bad auslegen. Ich habe ein schwarzes Handtuch auf meine Schultern gelegt und dann einen schwarzen Friseurumhang umgehängt und natürlich alte Kleidung angehabt. Färben ist meimer Erfahrung nach am besten auf trockenem Haar.Hierzu habe ich 2 Tuben à 35g (70g - Highlight red) und ca. 90 g von der 4% Oxidation verwendet. Da sowieso ein Aufheller in der Farbe drin ist, braucht man meiner Meinung nach keine 6% Oxidation, die nur mehr dem Haar schadet.Zuerst habe ich die Ansätze bearbeitet, danach die Längen und ganz zum Schluss die Spitzen.Nach einer kurzen Zeit, der Farbe auf dem Kopf brannte die Farbe kurz, es beruhigte sich dann aber wieder. Insgesamt habe ich nach dem vollständigen Auftragen der Farbe 35 Min. gewartet, bis ich diese ausgespült habe, was ich mit Gummihandschuhen immer gerne im Spülbecken der Küche mache, damit ich nicht Porzellan schrubben muss. Das Wasser habe ich lauwarm bis kalt gewählt. Danach habe ich Conditioner in meine Haare gegeben und ausgespült und Haaröl reingegeben in meine Haare. Die Ansätze sind einen Tick intensiver geworden, was aber eh nach einer Weile verfliegt. Insgesamt kam bei 4% Oxidation auf meinen dunkelbraunen Haaren ein sehr schöner, warmer Rotton heraus, mit dem ich mega zufrieden bin...Ich kann die Farbe jedem empfehlen, der von dunkelbraunauf rot wechseln möchte.
