Hair Color Olia Ammonia-Free Permanent Hair Dye, H02 Highlights for Blondes, 2 Count (Packaging May Vary)

Garnier Olia is a great at-home hair dye. It’s ammonia-free, smells much better than regular dyes, and feels very gentle on the hair. The color comes out rich and shiny, and it leaves the hair soft instead of dry. It may fade a little faster than salon color, but overall it’s an easy, affordable, and beautiful option. I would use it again.

I used L'Oreal Touch-On Highlights for many, many years. Then they discontinued it, and I thought my life was ending. I even bought old dusty boxes from E-Bay for $50. I tried a Revlon kit which was miserable. I tried a different L'Oreal kit, which was also miserable and required buying a toning shampoo and letting my hair grow out. Then I tried this. Oh.My.Goodness this is BETTER than the L'Oreal Touch-On Highlights! Here's the deal though: I saved the little applicator from my original L'Oreal Touch-On kit, it fits on your finger and has little teeth on it like a comb, to evenly apply the color. The newer L'Oreal kits (all over color plus highlights) has the same applicator, and I think it is important to have. I tried this kit without any applicator, and it was still great, but I think the addition of the applicator from the L'Oreal kit makes this magic. There is no chemical smell, no harsh perfume smell (well, the conditioner is a bit much, but it makes your hair really conditioned). There the material in the kit is all recyclable--I really appreciate that. I am SOLD on all things Garnier now. This stuff is MAGIC! (p.s. I have light brown hair normally, and I like it blonde)

Me gusta este producto ni es un tinte muy fuerte

I got this specific highlight kit due to having a new baby and I didn’t want him around ammonia. I liked the color this gave off, and it didn’t really require toner (I just used some purple shampoo), but we had to use both boxes to even have barely enough to do my hair. I was hoping to keep one for later, but that didn’t happen. It also comes with a “mixing bowl” that’s a small paper tray thing that isn’t great for mixing. All in all, i liked the color, but it was patchy and didn’t have enough product. So if you get it plan to use two boxes at least if not more.

It’s not like the old highlighting kit that’s for sure when you mix it up. It’s thick like pudding and hard to apply.
