4.0 out of 5 stars Dramatic, Long-Lasting Color? Dramatic, Yes. Long-Lasting... Not So Much., July 20, 2007

By

This review is from: L'Oreal Paris Feria Multi-Faceted Shimmering Colour, Copper Shimmer 74 (Misc.)

I've been dying my hair various shades of red for just about 10 years. One of the problems with the red shades, it seems, is that they fade after about a few weeks. After growing frustrated with the same-old color I'd been using for years ("light reddish blonde" which faded to "blonde with some orange" in about 2 weeks), I decided to go dramatic with this color by Feria. Feria is known for *dramatic* color, so it seemed right up my alley.

My immediate results were ~spectacular~ and I loved it!. The color was rich, prismatic, and it actually looked like I had highlights. I did notice some spots of unevenness, where areas were considerably darker red than others, which is hard to tell if it is because I was doing the coloring too soon after my previous coloring (about 3 weeks) or if the dye itself was applied unevenly (meaning you need to be hyper-vigilant about ensuring the dye is really applied evenly). My natural color is dark brown (and the color it was being dyed over was a darker auburn), and my color results were pretty much as depicted on the box, if not ever-so-slightly darker. Dramatic and eye catching, just what you'd expect from Feria.

It's now been 2 weeks, however, and the color has faded considerably. It's still red, but not as it was before. I'm not really disappointed, but I would have liked to maintain that "freshly dyed" color for a little longer. The kit, of course, includes conditioner that you use immediately after dying, then supposedly use "once a week until redoing color" to help maintain the color. While the conditioner does seem to help keep the color, the problem is there isn't *near* enough conditioner included to condition your hair for the 4-6 weeks between colorings. Why can't they sell more conditioner separately? I'd use it as my regular conditioner if it helped keep my color...

Overall, I love the color, and I love how dramatic it is in the first weeks, but the hunt is still on for a red that won't fade a ton. At least when this color fades, it doesn't fade into a scary shade of red (or lose all of its red), like some of them do, so that's a plus for me.

When all is said and done, I'll be using this color for awhile.

4.0 out of 5 stars Best "over the counter" haircolor, January 17, 2008

By 

S. McDougall (Hunterdon County, NJ) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   

I'm a natural redhead (or was!) & for me this is the best color I've found. My sister is a hair colorist in Georgia and told me this is the only "over the counter" color that's got any decent color. The tone on tone colors are actually noticeable and you don't have to be a genius to get it right, just mix it.

Note: Once I've done my roots, I add water & conditioner (Dove, cheap & good) to the dye before I pull the color through the rest of my hair. The lower I get, the more I add to the dye (I've got long hair & one bottle is enough). Helps keep from overprocessing the older hair and damaging it too much. Biggest diff. w/over the counter is the amount of ammonia...more damagins.

5.0 out of 5 stars Shows up on black hair!, August 8, 2006

By 

ichaBuNni (CA, USA) - See all my reviews

I have black hair, so you can imagine how hard it is to find a hair coloring kit that shows up on my hair. Feria definitely does a good job. My black hair turned red, though still darker than the one shown on the box. I still like the color! I ALWAYS use feria when I dye my hair at home =)
