description

Garnier Olia is unlike any other traditional, permanent hair color. Powered by a 60% oil blend formula with natural flower oils, Olia propels colorants deep into the hair, giving you vivid color results and 100% gray coverage. The oils help to reverse roughness and dullness without hair feeling weighed down. The non-drip formula has no ammonia, so it smells great as you apply. The end result? More brilliant, long-lasting color and hair that is hydrated, silky, looks full and up to 3x shinier than uncolored, unwashed hair. What’s in the hair dye kit? A developer applicator, a colorant tube, after color conditioner, as well as a set of gloves and the instruction sheet.

It's really, really hard to find a nice light blonde that doesn't have any ash tones. I was looking for a level 10 blonde to cover my 50% grey hair, which was about a level 9 blonde to start with...

Excellent product…….no ammonia. Hard to find except online. Very gentle on hair. Good grey coverage. Doesn’t fade as much as others I have used ( and I have tried them all)

I previously used Revlon Colorsilk, but their buttercream formulas became hard to find and the new formulas dried out my hair. Since Colorsilk did not contain ammonia, I thought I would try Olia....
