L'Oreal Paris Le Color Gloss One Step In-Shower Toning Hair Gloss, Neutralizes Brass, Conditions & Boosts Shine, Silver, 4 Ounce

I rarely write reviews and usually only to warn other buyers to stay away. Not this time. THIS IS THE BEST CONDITIONER FOR SILVER HAIR I HAVE EVER USED. I have tried 35 other ones. They do nothing for my coarse hair and often leave my hands purple. With this product, my hair is incredibly soft and silky! And it's cheap! I have a huge amount of hair (down to my waist) and I get 2.5 treatments from a $9 tube. This product is shockingly great. Also it comes in several gray/silver tones from white to salt and pepper. The photo was with Silver. My hair was not blown out. It was allowed to air dry. Look how straight it is! Normally it is frizz. Buy this!

Oh, wow, this product is great! We spend summers in the high mountains and hard water and dry air do a number on my grey hair—dingy, dry and coarse-feeling after the first was and it only gets worse as time goes on. I used a good moisturizing mask and then applied this product, left it for 15 minutes before rinsing out. I wasn’t optimistic,msince I’ve tried a lot of things over the years. I couldn’t believe my eyes when I dried my hair and saw how silvery and shiny it looked, and it’s soft and manageable, too. The softness is probably down to the hair mask, but the improved color and shine is not, because I’ve used that same mask before without those results. I will buy this product again for sure.

This is NOT meant to be a standalone hair color, and does NOT cover grays. It is, however, beautiful as a color booster, and makes your hair silky & shiny. I ordered the Plum shade wanting to boost the red tones in my hair, and it did a beautiful job on my lengths, but just sort of tinted my gray roots to a lilac-silver color. If you have gray roots, I'd recommend touching them up prior to using this.

Takes all the brassy color out and whiten Brighton‘s hair. I’m a person to color. I didn’t think this would work on my hair type. Works wonderful it’s got a nice smell to it. I’ll definitely be purchasing this again. Here’s a photo that’s attached so you could see how bright my hair is my gray is all natural too if you have natural gray hair

Color: I bought the cool brunette. This took the brassy tones out of my hair, and that is what I wanted, so all good on color. Update: I have brown dyed hair, and after continuing to use this, I really like how it tones and improves the color of my hair.Staining: I read other reviewers complaining that this stained their hands. Um, its a hair color, of course it stains. This does seem to have more staining power than other colors Ive used, but it also likely means the color has better hold or penetration, right? It didn't stain my bathtub or sink. I used gloves and made sure to wash it off anywhere that it touched. All good.Procedure: I used this as directed with one alteration.. I conditioned afterward. The conditioner I used was my regular product, which I like a lot and is unscented. I wanted to try to rinse/condition away some of the overwhelming smell, which didn't seem to work. The smell was so strong I ended up washing my hair again the next day. The whole thing was very time consuming and a lot of work. Next time I might try applying it to damp hair before washing, and see how that goes.Update on procedure: I have used this as a prewash treatment on damp hair a few times now, and it works.Gloss: My hair ended up looking somewhat matte the first day that I used it, but it seemed to pick up a touch of sheen and looked a bit healthier after I washed it out. Update: It does add a touch of gloss when I use on damp hair before washing.Smell: the fragrance was so strong that I washed it out the next day. The fragrance was still annoying afterward, but was more tolerable. I wish the smell was less intense.Conclusions: I will continue to use and experiment with this product. I have quite a bit more left in the tube. The jury is still out on this. I like the color and gloss, but the smell is tough to take and the process per instructions was more lengthy than I expected.Irritation Update: On my third use of this, I developed some irritation on my scalp, like pimples on my head. One was near my hairline and lasted over a month, but is finally gone. Yikes. I had used this to my scalp, which was damp at the time. I hesitate to use it again. If or when I do use it again, I will keep it away from my scalp. Not everyone reacts to products in the same way and have a lot of skin sensitivities. Just wanted to share the info in case it helps. I will keep looking for the right product for me.

I have tried everything to keep my gray from turning yellow- even professionals have not been able to lift the yellow with bleach or toners, semi-permanent or permanent. I use purple masks and have every anti-yellow product under the sun This is the magic bullet! For pennies vs. hundreds of dollars, my hair stays silver/white without dryness for a few weeks. I get two treatments out of each tube and it’s the best product I’ve found for consistent color minus the yellow. The other plus is that you can leave it on over the recommended 10-15 minutes and never worry about having purple hair that you have to wash out to get the desired shade. The box shows the results and it works every time, leaving my hair shiny and soft.

I didn't like the red in my hair and wanted to try something that was not permanent. I chose Rich Brunette - and the solution looked very dark when I opened the tube - left it on for the recommended 15 (I did 20) minutes and was happy with the result. The 4th photo is my hair prior to using the toning gloss and the last is after. I am happy it toned down the red. It says the tube is good for 3 uses but I think I might get more. I don't know if it lasts after the next shampoo but still like that it is not permanent.
