    Don't like it. Made a mess trying to dye my hair, worse than usual. It faded really quickly. There are a lot better hair colours out there.

    While it did change the color of my hair, I didn't get the result I wanted. I think there are better hair dyes out there.

    Pros: The lack of smell (no ammonia). No stains on my skin, counter, or towel. Nice gloves

    Cons: the applicator bottle was a little uncomfortable to hold. The product was clear, so it was hard to tell where I had put the product. I worried that I missed areas; I worried that I wouldn't have enough product to do my whole head (I have a lot of long hair). I had a hard time opening the bottle of conditioner.

    was not impressed by the results Garnier Olia Permanent Haircolor. The developer container made me unsure if I had gotten all the product out. I had a hard time keeping my grip on the applicator bottle, with its bubble like shape kept slipping out of hands. It had no odor. The only thing it did was make my hair shinier. The Light Golden Blonde did not even lighten my already dirty blonde hair. I received this product for free but this opinion is my own.

    I wasn't a huge fan of this after I tried it.

    The bottle is super awkward to hold when you are applying it. I also didn't like that you had to add every thing to one bottle, because it was hard to get every drop out.

    The application came out uneven and didn't dye my whole head, even though I applied two packages, my hair was still splotchy.

    I'd rather purchase another brand, which is also significantly cheaper.

    I did not like this product, because it did not work for me. I dyed my hair black and then I decided to use this product on my hair. When my roots showed up I have decided to try it. After 30 minutes of waiting I rinsed out my hair and all the hair dye washed off. My roots did not absorb any hair dye and stayed my natural color.

    I tired the new Olia Dark burgundy. I love the colour! It gave my hair a purple tint in the sunlight. The colour itself was beautiful, goes on easy and makes your hair so soft! I love the concept here for healthier hair colour.

    But I found since i coloured my hair two weeks ago the colour is still bleeding on my towels and i can see it in the water of my shower. Some of my old blonde pieces are peeking through the colour which sucks!
    I use a lot of colour treated shampoos conditioners and sprays that this shouldn't happen.

    Overall I love the colour and maybe if i go back to brown i will use this brand again but not for red hair that's for sure.

    First Garnier product I've tried and disliked! I was excited to try it because it sounded "healthier" than most other hair dyes, but it barely touched my grays, which is the only reason I color my hair in the first place. Will not use this one again.

    I received a coupon in the mail for this product so I decided to try it. The packaging looks good and the contents were all organized. The bottle that the hair dye was supposed to be mixed in was a little too big for the box and could have been made smaller. The hair dye itself, once mixed, was easy to apply and did not have a terrible smell that most hair dyes have. The problem I personally had with this dye is that it did not last as long as I hoped it would. It faded within a couple of weeks and for a permanent color, it's not so permanent. The pricing of the item is average. Would I buy this product again? Probably not!

    I used Olia Darkest Violet - 3.16, because I was trying to cover some hilites I had done earlier. I like the box and the gloves it came with and the color that I ended up with (I have dark brown hair usually, and my hilites were pretty light, dark blonde) - but it didn't quite cover my hilites that well, and also it is fading quite quickly.

    I might try a different color one more time to see how it will end up.

    I have used other Garnier color boxes and it seemed to fade less.

    Honestly, I don't think people are being honest in their reviews! I purchased this product based on some of "these reviews" that said, "Oh Yeah, it's great!" Or, "I just LOVED this formula!" But the real seller (I thought) were the reviews that talked about the "wonderful", or "vibrant"COLOR... their "totally amazing" experiences they all had with this product. Whatever! That's right! I'll be the first to tell you.... IT IS NOT ALL THAT! The real bitch of it is I have really, really long hair. Needless to say I had to purchase two boxes of this Garnier Olia. It smells ok, it feels ok, but exceptional color & shine? Um...NO! Even after following the instructions (and I mean to the letter! Even massaging this crap in BEFORE rinsing) the color results were DEFINATELY NOT EXCEPTIONAL! They were minimal at best on most of my hair, but on the roots?? OMG! I do have some grey, but that being said, my roots came out several shades lighter than the rest of my hair!! Did I mention I have really, really long hair? And INTENSE SCALP ITCHING... Holy Cow! And yes, I did the allergy test! I now have to wear a HAT to the store to purchase ANOTHER product to hopefully get the roots to match the rest of my hair (which did not color evenly. The underneath layers are my regular color. Looking as if the "oil infusion of color" only happens on grey hair?) But what I CAN report is that after ONE wash all that shine went BYE BYE and the softness? Went BYE BYE with the shine!! Bottom line: DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY! (I wasted twenty plus bucks)! A far gentler product, one I've also used and actually trust is from this line Garnier (I'm suprised too) is their HerbaShine formula with no ammonia. Its a far cry BETTER! Actually deposits the color and it stays (I'm suprised too), and no itchy scalp. I hope this actually HELPS someone so they don't go out and spend needlessly on an inferior product.
