Wickedly good!

Definitely would buy again, it's a fantastic Pastels line that doesn't destroy your hair (IF you follow the instructions and don't go over the timings, like any other permanent colour line). Long-lasting pastel colour, great colour and not-so damaging dye!

The Loveliest Hair Colour Shade I Have Ever Used

L'Oreal Feria Smokey Pastels give you amazing hair colour without having to go to a salon. They come in shades of Smokey Pink, Smokey Blue, and Smokey Lavender. I love the lavender, so that is the shade that I have been using. I have gotten many compliments on the colour, and it is so easy to use right in the comfort of your own home. DO NOT believe the package that says it is not for use on grey hair. I am completely grey, and the colour is quite vibrant without being too "in your face".

I was told to stay FAR away from this dye from all my hairdresser friends, but me being me, I decided to give it a shot. I bought a couple boxes of the Smokey Lavender dye. You MUST start with all of your hair being VERY white or VERY LIGHT yellow for this dye to work. Also, DO NOT apply the dye to freshly bleached hair. It will not dye it. Wait at least one week after bleaching your hair to use this product.
My hair was pretty light to start out with, so I didn't bother bleaching it. I applied both boxes of the dye on my hair, due to it being longer, and left it on the normal amount of time. Once I washed it out and dried my hair, I was shocked at how nice it turned out. I was honestly assuming it was going to be patchy and look like crap. but it didn't! It turned out much darker than the box at first, but after a few washes it faded out to a very pretty light lavender. I kept that hair colour for a few months and LOVED it!

I've used this a couple times now, the first for just the ends of my hair and now for my whole head. it looks amazing! It is definitely not what I would call pastel but it looks really good. My only criticism is that my roots (that have not been dyed in a very long time) did not take the colour except for where my natural highlights are. This is great for not having my roots show so I think I actually prefer it this was. Also not really enough in the bottle for people with long hair, mine is halfway down my back.

For this review, I am reviewing Loreal Feria Pastel hair dye in Dusty Lavender. I was very nervous about this product, as all the reviews I saw were not very positive. I decided to give it a go though. Im very happy I did! My hair was a light yellowy blonde prior to using the dye. It took me two boxes to cover my hair. My hair is just a bit longer than my shoulders. I kept the dye on for an hour and when I washed it out, it was a dark lavender. After around 4 washes though, it faded into the most beautiful pastel lavender. I was SO in love! I bought many more boxes. I also didn't feel like it damaged my hair.
