Marion Hair Color Shampoo in Sachet Lasting 4-8 Washes - 51 - Light Pearl Blonde

I wanted to wait a while before reviewing to make sure there’s longevity of the colour and if it’s truly suitable on Afro textures or if it was better suited to straight/European hair as shown on the packaging. Anyone with experience or knowledge on genuine type 3C to 4C Afro hair textures will know it doesn’t need a 15 step cgm routine with layers upon layers of products and scrunching, plopping, flipping and diffusing just for the ‘curls’ to fall and the hair to revert back to being straight within 24 hours. Afro hair will maintain its natural curl as long as the hairs in good health and isn’t over processed or manipulated and my curls/coils haven’t changed with this compared to using a box dye that loosened up my curl pattern and needed protein treatments to restore it or adore that left my hair crunchy and dry. This Marion shampoo colour feels just like a conditioning agent on my hair, when applied to my damp hair it curls up as if I’d put a conditioner in, I was surprised yet very delighted at this effect considering that the packaging makes no reference to Afro hair as the packaging shows a woman with straight hair. This is officially my new holy grail, it’s a quarter of the price I was paying for my last semi permanent colour that made my hair so dry and stiff, it lasts ten times longer, doesn’t transfer onto fabrics, better value for money and the quality is absolutely superb and the best I’ve used and I’ve been dying my hair since 2009! These colours come out even and don’t have green undertones or stain it like henna dyes and it’s not chemically processing my hair with every application so saves me from damaging my curls/coils! I wish I’d found this product years ago but I’m delighted to have found it now! It’s very difficult to find good quality products that are both affordable and effective on Afro hair as they just aren’t moisturising or thick enough in consistency to coat the curls/coils and Afro targeted products and brands are changing ingredients to suit loose non-Afro hair textures whilst the prices skyrocket going up to ten times more than the cost of one Marion packet, so it’s VERY challenging to find that holy grail when you have a certain hair type but this Marion dye is extremely effective at depositing an even beautiful colour. It has a decent amount of slip to it to easily work through the strands and coat them adequately. Since Afro hair has fewer cuticle layers along strands that protect and seal the cortex of the hair, it can be very prone to damage from even minor hair treatments, the fewer cuticles are great for absorbing water/moisture/colours into the cortex but this leaves the strands open so moisture and colour soaks in wonderfully but exits the hair strands just as easily as it’s absorbed which makes it hard to maintain coloured hair but this product gets the job done and LASTS, it’s not like some dyes that’s very intense either bright or dark at first and you have to let it fade or shampoo lots to look tone it down, Marion dye looks settled from the first application and maintains the look, even with sulphate shampoo and heat styling my hair! It’s hardly faded and I only left the product in for 25-30 minutes compared to the recommended 45 minutes. I’ve recommended this to all my friends and family that colour their hair and I don’t ever plan on switching to another colour brand now I’ve found that holy grail that’s super affordable and the quality is unmatched and for such a low price with one packet being enough to coat my bra strap length curly hair that’s a super bargain!

Lovely colour works really well and seems to last better than box hair dyes makes hair all soft just orderd more

Pretty good product, it works well for me as I don't have that much grey hair to cover. It is very easy to use, which I like most about it. It does not tangle my hair, which is another bonus. The colour does not last long, so I have to use it often. I only gave it 4 stars because the colour stains my pillow case a bit. Overall, good product, it is worth trying it!

I used this product and left it on for the maximum recommended time which was promised to have greatest effect...there is absolutely no change in the tone of my hair colour at all (I am naturally a medium blonde so the ideal for this product in theory). If anything, the result is duller than with my regular routine with normal shampoo/conditioner - I had thought with all the claims of aloe and keratin, there would at least be a shine after 45 minutes with supposedly beneficial nutrients but no. Although this is an inexpensive product therefore my expectations were not high, this was a total waste of time and money. Directions are in Polish so here is a translation if anyone bothers to buy this product: BRIGHT PEARL BLOND For hair from light to medium blunt. Gray hair gives a beautiful pearly hue. The MARION Color Shampoo is an exceptionally gentle product, designed to give a beautiful, radiant and radiant color to the hair. It allows you to quickly change the shades of hair or to refresh it. Unique formula without ammonia and hydrogen peroxide, contains moisturizing extract of aloe and keratin, which strengthens the hair, restoring a healthy appearance. Thanks to the use of gel consistency, the product evenly covers the entire hair. The color stays on the hair from 4 to 8 myc, depending on the coloring time given in the way of use. How to use it: Put on the gloves, cut the corner of the sachet, then apply the preparation on the washed and moist hair. Massage your hair until foam is formed. Allow 20 minutes for hair to last about 4-5 washes or extend the stain to 45 minutes to obtain more intense color and longer hair length to about 8 washes. Rinse the hair and water will be cyst. In the case of gray and light hair, it is recommended to shorten the coloring time to 15-20 minutes. If hair is very bright or strongly damaged, before using a color shampoo, we suggest you check the intensity of color on a single strand of hair by following the recommended application time

Velvet Brown is a beautiful shade. I bought this only to cover grey hair, which it does completely, after 45 mins. I applied this with a hairdressing pack off Amazon for £5, that gives you a bowl and 3 brushes. It's in a sort of gel, so is easy to apply with the dying brushes, and doesn't run. I used a wet wipe, where I got the splashes on my forehead (as you do), and it came off easily.. so have 1 or 2 wet wipes to hand, to remedy accident. It's perfect. Much better than the hairdressers. I could never have dreamt of such a beautiful shade... that covers grey hair.

Quite a messy formula, would recommend wearing gloves even though not a supplied, as it does dye your hands. Mine never quite reached the foam that it describes, it felt more like a dye on my hair. That said, it has come out with a lovely rich tint of colour which is what I was after. If you just leave it for 25 minutes, it acts like a toner. Good price

Bra produkt

Fantastico. Pratico da usare. Colore bellissimo e dura almeno il doppio di quanto riportato se si lascia in posa per 35 minuti

Het is lekker voor je haar mooie glans maar dekt niet alle grijze haren.

Nice colored shampoo, on my hair a little bit darker that on the picture. Depends on your natural color. The hair becaming shiny and nice looking, lightly covering the gray hair (the same color but a little bit more light). Getting washed away with time. Good experience, I like it very much. Can't dye the hair with traditional hair color, so for it's ideal solution

Easy to use
