Hi I love the fact that you know what you're talking about. Your communication is excellent. You're very good at explaining things in layman's terms and mostly I appreciate that you're don't treat us like dummies.
Just one tiny suggestion. Can you tell us the name of each product you're holding up? I couldn't see them very well so I don't know what some of them are.
Hey love thank you so much only just seen your video. I've been using really dark hair dyes but I haven't used them for over a year I paid somebody £200 to put streaks in my hair but now I can't afford that so I'm doing it myself can you tell me the the best dye to get colour to use and where I can buy that from thank you
I have always been told the mineral salts in box dyes are the issue not actually the non customised colour. I was always told if someone came to me with box dye the mineral salts in box dye can react with things like bleach and this is when u get the hair melting, smoking etc
Thank you for this. It’s so frustrating to hear hair stylists constantly calling out the public for using at-home dyes and *never* acknowledging that some people simply cannot afford salon prices. We all want beautiful hair! It’s really tone deaf to not mention that price is a barrier, and this is one reason I love watching your videos!
Do you have a Sally's? A tube of color and developer costs me around 15.00, if that. Then just the plastic tray and brush that is used over and over again. I get at least 2 uses out of one tube (I usually grab another color to mix with if I can as it covers my gray better) and one little developer so I'm actually saving money. I used to be intimidated to go in there and I really thought it would be expensive but it isn't. I totally understand the price thing, I'm on an extremely tight budget aka (poor). I bought a toner and it is around 6.00. If you can buy a large bottle of developer (around 20.00) you can save money as well however I can't always afford that. Just incase some people didn't know. 😊
I totally agree
Some of us need to color every 3 to 4 weeks and $100 plus every 3 weeks is just too much!
Yeeessss
Amen. It comes off SO OFTEN as so snotty, looking down on you…I had one hair dresser admit that I had done a good job
I don’t know why it makes me emotional but I really appreciate the fact that you are educating us without making us feel like shit because we can’t afford to go to a stylist
Lol I will never go to a stylist to get my hair blonde I've been twice before and it came out not what I wanted. But when I do it with box dyes it comes out the bomb diggity ❤
Hair stylist never want to do a full head bleach on me as they are afraid of damages or it not coming out blondish yellow enough so basically it protects them.
If i do it myself only im reliable for any damages or fails
@@Bebedollie this is such a great comment. there are a lot of crap hair stylists out there
Amen!!
They do that in order not to loose money... just as this woman does by trashing some products to then offer hers...
Thank you for educating people without being condescending. Love your videos 👏
Thank you!
Exactly. Because getting your hair done by a professional is a privilege that not everybody can access.
Amen!!!
@violoncello v exactly! As you can see in my pic, I'm blonde. I had a Redken trained colorist tell me the best I could hope for was a shade of red. She was my cosmetology instructor lmao!! So a few years after graduating from that college, I used my Basic knowledge and took a chance. I've been blonde now for over 10 years. I naturally have very dark, almost black hair.
As a single mom with two small children, thank you. Can't afford $140 every 6/8 weeks all the time and this helps.
L'Oréal excellence grey cover is the best I think. I receive alot of compliments using the blonde. If you have grey hair that used to be light brown . You don't need to go to hairdresser. Plus not damaging like bleech.
2 small children... Oh girl.
I'm Single with no kids, and I STILL can't afford to get my color done at a salon. I use the cheapest one..Revlon Color Silk..and have had great results. People tell me it looks natural. And I also use 2 different colors..Ultra Light Blonde and Champagne Blonde. I alternate the colors, but keeping most of the brightness around the face. There may be some differences in color formulas, but I really think the application makes a big difference too.
I would say that's affordable (even so I would still not go, there's so many things you can actually do with those money) but I'm in London and a hair bleach and a toner after is around 500, pounds not dollars😳. I went to ask to see if I can afford it and I just went out, nope, nope nope 😂😂😂😂😂
@@dreamscape405 yeah, I'm single, no kids ever. Luckily I only had to color my hair once every 4 months. My hair grows slowly which is good
I really appreciate that you don’t shame those of us who attempt to do our own hair. I feel like I’ve met quite a few stylists who will judge you to your face once they realize you’ve tried to do it yourself. Really appreciate your videos!
That’s what many of them have to do somehow make you pay their unjustified prices, many of them Are clueless and can’t get you what want but still want to charge a fortune what is not even all medical doctors are making per hour
You are the most honest, no exploitation hair stylist on UA-cam and this is why I LOVE your channel. Thank you SO MUCH for all of the valuable tips you offer!
Right? I subscribed so fast!
Thank you for understanding. Not everyone can afford a professional colorist all the time. I remember when I was young I was trying to put blond streaks in my natural black/brown hair with level 7 blond box hair dye because that was the color streaks I wanted. I don’t need to tell anyone what didn’t happen. 🙃🤣
Thank you for this! I like your approach educating about box colour. My last hairdresser were always shouting about how box colour was the devil and shouldn’t be applied. Thank you for educating everyone to let them know what is and isn’t possible
I used Olia Dark Blonde during quarantine to fix a half yellow, half white disaster that a supposed expert colorist left me with when my stylist was between salons. I went to my salon, MY stylist (and other stylists) actually complimented my color! She even commented on how healthy my hair was! I really like it! (I went from naturally dark blonde with lots of gray and a hot multicolored mess of highlights to dark blonde all over, and my color turned out exactly the color that it showed on Garnier’s website’s little color guide/checker. It covered everything without looking flat or dull. Hope this is helpful!)
REALLY helpful. I’m in a similar situation due to illness - long grey roots and the lengths of my hair bleached yellow-white haphazardly (thanks pro)! NEED to cover grey and even everything out with a more natural finish. I’ll give Olia a bash. Can I ask, did you go with 8 or 9 in your situation?
@@spellywelly I went with 9. However, I don’t know if I got a bad batch from Amazon or if Garnier changed the formula, but the last two times I used the Olia it faded quickly and dramatically, and didn’t have the same gray coverage - so disappointing! I switched to Revlon ColorSilk which is also ammonia free (Dark Ash Blonde), and it did really well. It’s not as moisturizing, but the color and coverage was good. If the Olia doesn’t work for you that might be a good alternative. Hope this helps!
@@MJT66 yep very helpful indeed! Thanks for responding. Dying over bleach was worrying me but it sounds like box dyes have come on a bit since I last used one, in about 2003 😅
I’ll try Olia first because condition pretty dubious, but it’s helpful to have a backup!
This is the first time I have seen you on UA-cam and I am forever grateful that you are understanding that life treats us all differently and some are unable to go to the salon. Thank you for your grace in helping everyone.
I enjoy your peaceful calm attitude towards this explanation
Just want to take a moment to thank you for all of the information that you provide! My daughter was destroying her hair and didn’t want to listen to me. I came across your videos and shared them with her. Her hair has been healthier and more beautiful than ever. Thanks for keeping it honest and straight up, without shaming.
I love your videos! You are so sweet and kind to share your knowledge. I appreciate you being understanding that some really cannot afford a hairdresser but that doesn’t mean they don’t deserve hair that makes them feel beautiful.
I know this is an older video, however I had to comment how beautiful you are inside and out. By educating without judgement you are helping so many of us that simply cannot afford a $300 salon trip. Please continue being beautiful. ❤️
Finally a stylist makes this video! Thank you!💙
haha I should have made this a long time ago.
@@Ellebangs better late than never!

I think I’ve watched your videos for over 6 years now. I so admire what you do. Not everyone can afford to go to the hairdresser and they want their hair done. Also covid has changed everything
Indeed, thank you for watching lovely!
Thank you so much for this video! I can’t leave the house for hours to get my hair done with a 4 year old and an infant, so thank you so much!
Thank you for always being so kind and caring in sharing your knowledge for all that search for the info you provide. Especially the Diy blonde upkeep! God bless!
Love Olia! Platinum Brown is an amazing shade! Every time I've used it I've gotten so many compliments. It's like a dark brown but the shine on it is like silver. I also really like black chocolate which is part Olias midnight collection which is like a very dark brown that has a warm chocolaty richness to it.
This is my first video of yours, thank you for not assuming "everyone knows" you, as so many other creators do. Brilliant information, exactly what I was looking for- subbed 👍
I'm so glad I found this video. I had to go back to box hair colour since my hair salon closed due to Covid, and is still only cutting hair, not colouring. I have been cutting my own hair for over a year with the help of one of your hair trimming videos. The box colours that I bought always went too dark, then ended up too light. I had a very nasty experience with Garnier hair colour, so avoid that like the plague. On your recommendation 2 weeks ago I tried esalon. What a difference! I asked for a dark blonde shade and it came out dark blonde straight away. So far it isn't lightening, so I will continue with them. I have asked for a gold tone to be added to my next order colour. I am very happy with my hair colour now, so a big thank you Silvia. It's all thanks to you. :)
I love this ! As a cosmetologist, I’m always looking for alternatives for people. I don’t live in an exactly wealthy town, and some people can only afford a haircut. If you ask what’s a cheaper alternative, I want to point you in the right direction . Thank you !💜
This is so thoughtful of you, all stylists always just says “never use box dye” it’s like okay I’ve been getting color professional and I do it at home sometimes but I have brunette so it’s easier I guess. I’m going to try these ones now!
I think its a case of "people are gonna do it regardless (esp in pandemic).. so at least let em do it right" and i appreciate that greatly! 😊
I get my hair done at both salon and at home. Thankyou so much for your amazing vids. I love how down your earth you are and that u help everyone no matter what. God bless sweetie
This video is very useful.Even my(best friend)hairdresser didn't give me info like that.I appreciate it.When you said why you do this
It was so amazing that I almost cried.
I only use Demi-permanents, in Salon and in between, namely L'Oréal Casting Creme Gloss. Honestly can't fault it!! Covers, blends greys, really nice brunette shades, adds tones to the hair, even as it fades out your greys take on more the undertone of the colour so stay blended! Hair always conditioned really well afterwards and for weeks!!
What is “Demi/permanent? I’m assuming a semi permanent hair color that washes out over the weeks??? (I have gone back to my natural brunette but gray is coming in around my face. It also gets brassy pretty quick (within about 6 weeks of salon color. I have warm tones so it gets orangey) I would prefer to just color my hair at home now. I stopped the highlights because my hair gets damaged super easy and I don’t like high maintenance......
@@clemmycat I wish she would of answered your question...Im right there with you😫
@@chastity5214 Hi, I've been using the Loreal Casting since the pandemic started - it's great! Demi permanent in this case means it should wash out completely after 20-30 washes. I figure I would have to let my hair grow out for about 4 months to see it completely gone.
@@witchescauldron Thanks so much for replying and for the information
I've never found a hair color that completely washes out:\
Thank you so much. I've been using esalon for a few years now (at your recommendation) and I'm so happy with the results. God bless you and your precious baby and family. I love all your videos Sylvia. Always such great advice. I highly respect and recommend you to others.
Honestly Revlon Color silk no ammonia has been so good for my hair the last few years.I use to use the other higher end brands just because I wouldn't dream of using a 3 dollar box of color,but when someone on UA-cam recommend it that I'd always loved her hair,I tried it.It doesn't smell bad and it leaves my hair in much better condition...only thing is you have to get a really good conditioner for after because that little ketchup size packet they put in there is a joke! Lol...Just my opinion of course!😉🌻
I also enjoy Revlon Color Silk too. Always comes out natural looking.
I've been using the Revlon Color Silk for years. Love the gray coverage and color results.
My favorite dye since..forever.
WOW. I just stumbled across your yourtube vid's. You are awesome and have such an amazing attitude that addresses the needs that many people have. Thank you for clarifying your approach BTW, I know you've been on youtube for a long time but this has motivated me to go through your other great vids as they add so much value!
I just found you. I’m grateful for you. I knew nothing. I am a Redhead, and never had to dye my hair. Women were trying to have my hair colour.
I was so fortunate for a beautiful hair color, but now it’s fading getting gray. You have been very helpful thank you.
Wow. One of the best most informative videos on hair I have seen in a while. I have wasted so much money and just gotten wanted colors via boxed dye by really just pure luck, and a lot of hair damage. How naive of me 🤦🏻♀️..thank you! Definitely subscribing. 👍🏻👏🏼
Thank you for making educational videos like this one, without judging people. Personally, I don't go to hairdressers anymore simply because every time I went to one, they ruined my hair. It's really sad but since I started to cut, style and dye my hair by my own, it looks healthy, glossy and the way it should be. Hairdressers didn't want to listen me, that my hair bleaches hard, that it's really unpredictable while dying (as it may turn orange or green) - and they always cut it so badly (too short, too many layers leaving my hair thin, etc.). The last time I went to a hair stylist was about 5 years ago, right before my wedding - I wanted ashy ombre look, and I ended up with very warm, orangy brown/blond ombre. My skin, eyes and hair are definitely with cool undertones - so you may guess how did I look... I spent 5 hours on the chair, spent a lot of money and had to listen to the lady complaining about my hair and taking several coffee breaks (all of it happening in a L'oreal hair saloon!).... No, sorry, it's not for me. I won't let any other stylist touch my hair ever again.... However...If I could choose, you would be my only option. Unfortunately, that won't happen as I live too far.
@TropicArt Studio - That's awful... I generally find that female hairdressers have an underlying or subconscious thing that causes a bad hair cut/color with their female clients. I've only had one female stylist who didn't destroy my hair.
Because of this history, I prefer to have my hair done by men. My experience is that the male stylists will listen, and actually do what you want OR suggest something that has amazing results. They're more appreciative of the women they are working on, without underlying issues, there's no subconscious jealousy or competition there.
Perhaps you might consider that option. 😉
I’ve never tried to do my hair at home but am in a tight spot after losing several jobs due to COVID; THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR KNOWLEDGE! ♥️
This is the first time I have leave a comment on UA-cam, but I just wanted to say thank you for sharing your knowledge!!! I used the Kristin Ess Gloss- Brunette and I have no words to explain the wonderful results I got! Thank you because not only I saved $$$, avoid dying my hair permanent black because I didn't have the money to go back to the salon, and learned a lot in the process. Wish you all the success in the world.
I love that you're not like all the other professionals! Not everyone can afford $100+ hair services and sometimes 15-20 bucks is the best they can do for themselves. Everyone deserves to feel pretty and by educating them without being condescending speaks for itself tremendously! Thank you! 🤍
My appt was over 200 last time. I'm done.
Yes lol...everyone says “nooo go to the hairdresser” but like I’m not tryna spend $300 when I could buy a box for $10-20
@@puppyheart7778 my mom tells me she hates the companies intentions with the box dye because they profit off of people who don’t know what they are doing. But she never told me why the box dye itself is bad other than it’s hard asf to get out. But if you’re aren’t getting your hair highlighted all the time then it’s fine.
I got told from three different salons that I would have to have a very expensive color correction to get the red and yellow out of my hair to go back to the blonde I originally was before I decided to go back to dirty blonde. In the process my hair ended up turning copper color. One lady told me I should never be blonde which was funny because I was born a natural blonde. So after being told that by three salons I decided to come home and just bleach it myself so I did and it turned out okay the roots were all covered except I now have some yellow in my hair and I'm trying to figure a way to get it out of my hair without damaging it. I went and got a haircut after I bleached it just to see if it would be healthier after I've bleached it so it is in a healthy condition when I do this again. And on my journey of looking for what kind of toner and developer to use I found this Olia ammonia free platinum hair color but cannot find many reviews on it I was hoping to find a review on it on here to see if it really works because if not I think I have to result to a toner and a developer to get the yellow out of my hair. Because I do not have that kind of money to pay for a color correction in a salon because I have kids and bills and a husband and dogs to take care of so a color correction at a salon is not in the cards for me. Lol
From a hair stylist of 30 yrs. Every well said.
This is the first video I have seen. Thank you for explaining so well about box colours ,toners.
I’ve used the Kristen Ess gloss several times and I love it! I currently use the Bittersweet color and it’s great for darkening my hair a bit once my salon gloss starts to fade. I always get compliments on the color
On
Thank you for all your advice.I've done too many mistakes regards to hair colouring.
Keep up with your good work.xx
I learned the hard way not to pick a colour based what’s on the front of the box... thanks for this video!
I have had wonderful results from box color. You don't rush into it and plan ahead on what you want in your results. My dad was so excited when I let him dye my hair. My mom took a few days to notice.
I love your hair-it’s got similar tones to what I have had. Thinking of going back to it for the summer. The fact many of us can’t always afford a stylist, this is so useful. Gained a Sub now!!!
My wife and I loved your hair color so much! 🤗 I assist with the transition, it turned out beautifully ✨
I have been doing my hair since I was 13 years old using the little boxes for many years my hair is just as beautiful and healthy., I get lots of compliments
Sooo appreciate finding you today! New to wanting to color my hair at home.
Great video! I would love to hear more info on less permanent options for hair and how to get the best results :) Loving your hair right now!
I love youtube. So many talented people sharing their knowledge. Thank you ❤💙💜 beautiful lady for your generosity.
wow im late but thank you so much for educating people and saying you dont care if they do it at home. some people are still so condescending about doing it at home when there are places like sally's or other beauty supply stores where u can get better than box dye, and even some box dye depending on the hair can be very effective and turn out well. there are plenty of people who are intelligent enough and capable enough to do their hair at home or help a friend do their hair and have the result turn out great. growing up i learned the hard way by experimenting and slowly learning the sort of science behind how certain products work through trial and error. i've completely fried my hair to a crisp, dyed it poop green on accident, you name it, and i've also done some colors where people ask where i got it done at or ask me to do theirs. if you are willing to learn the safe and effective ways to do it at home because you either cant afford a stylist or just like doing it yourself you can still get a great result. for me it's both but i also just really enjoy doing it myself, it's like a hobby but also a self transformation ritual lol "new hair new me" kind of vibe 😂💜
I just tried the Kristen Esse gloss and love it. It did not change m to hair color but it made it look healthier. Thank you very informative
I’ve literally just come across your YT and I could cry. Covid has changed so much for this mum of two 3 and under. I can barely afford £50 for a wash/cut/blow dry every 6mths, this channel is my literal fairy godmother. So grateful. Xx
I suggest you try a bob hairstyle. I let mine grow until it is 5 inches under my chin and then I do a "beard" haircut from UA-cam. I tried Creaclip and The Perfect Bob tools but prefer the beard cut method. In 10 years you'd save 5,000 pounds! Imagine over 30 years...
Great video and great advice! Ive always used box dye. I've paid good money on professionals as well. I think the most important thing to remember is to be realistic about whats achievable with an at home dye. I always stay pretty clise to my natural shade. Also you get what you pay for.
I love your hair color, Sylvia!! It's beautiful!! Thank you for sharing your videos with us!! We appreciate it!! Very good information!! 💖
I have used boxes and i have spent hundreds at salons. Boxes work fine unless you want good highlights or mixed colors etc. I dont assume my hair will look like the box but hopefully close to what I am aiming for.
Thanks for giving education on box dyes
Please do a video on how to achieve your current color!!! LOVE ITTTTT
YASSSSSS!!!!!! #goalhair
I mentioned at the end of this video that Im currently working on my hair transformation video. I'm hoping to have that up for you next week!
@ellebangs Notifications turned on. 👍
YES YES YES
I have seen said video! I speak only the truth. Several years ago I wanted to touch up my highlights (hairdresser2) and I came across Elle foiling her hair with I think 4 foils just on top and instead of my typical back foiling away from the face, she said “if you need a touch up bad and usually have a really light color, this will get you by” she foiled alternating a beige blonde and lightener to get her white pieces and did it parallel to the part. I remember thinking “this isn’t gonna work“. Lo and behold this bitch had done rocked the dopest blonde highlights I had ever seen... and she still has them to this day and they’re amazing.
Of course I tried it and accidentally got a bleed mark next to my part but that was my bad. Don’t drink and foil my friends! LMAO
Hi, I just tried garnier olia hair color does a great job. Less hair fall after coloring ,the conditioner that comes with the box made my hair soft and does not have a strong ammonia smell.Thanks for your review.
Finally a stylist who’s helping us DIY’s. It sucks when stylists claim to get color you have to come in and pay $120+
thank you for mentioning people who might not be able to afford going to a salon bc i think that’s so important!!
I love your videos, Sylvia!! Thank you for sharing them with us!! 💖
I used Feria box dye in the shade 100 (extra light neutral blonde) on my Mom's hair for over 20yrs. It lightened her level 3 dark brown hair to a beautiful pale neutral blonde. She also never got a lit if breakage or damage to her hair. At 93yrs old and still blonde...her hair is thicker and healthier than mine!!
Not all box colours are bad products. I will recommend Feria as giving very nice results!!
Does it come out as an ash blonde?
Did she have gray as she got older? I think they say on the box that it doesn't cover gray which I never understood because its supposed to be a permanent color. I guess its supposed to be a more transparent color. Plus that shade 100 I wouldn't think would cover gray meaning would not deposit enough color on top of gray. I think it has a 30V developer as well which lifts more for non gray darker hair. Id love to know if she is still using the same color! That would be great,
@@lisadae1254 all the box colors I've used covered the gray.
Beautiful ❤️🌈🙏
THANK YOU because some of us don't have the money to spend at a salon, it's quite expensive and sometimes you're not even satisfied with the results. I've had my scalp burned & damaged from a salon and they were rude about it ! definitely deterred me from going back, I prefer to do my own hair now.
I love your hair color!! I have dark hair with some grey and i have been wanting to go blonde again! I love how yours is a little more blonde in the front and its not brassy at all! I had someone tell me that i cant wear any red because of my complexion but i believe i can wear a burgundy red or purple red also the dark hair with blue is pretty. I have always loved blonde hair though and. yours is perfect!! 💖
This video is so helpful and gives me so much hope to be able to do my own hair at home and get a result I’m happy with without breaking the bank. I would love if I lived in your area though and could go to you initially to get a good solid base going of what I want that I only need to maintain after. Thank-you for being so kind, open and non-judgemental in your video :)
Thank you !!! Sorry I'm blowing up your comments. I had to do a box color for my roots 3 weeks ago for the first time because my hair stylist wouldn't share what she was using on my hair even though I have followed her for years with like 5 salon moves ! I did a 7 dark blonde clairol then i got a hold of her boss i guess she always uses a 8N redken. It was nothing personal i lovr her i was trying to extend appointments bc my grey got so much it was just getting to much spenong like $200 every 4 weeks. Anyways thanks for taking the time to explain. I've been trying to figure out what to do so my sisterinlaw can help me and I feel abandoned by my stylist. I truly loved her and just was shocked at how she seemed to just be seeing me as $$ after all these years together. Xoxo
You are so humble and sweet, and also incredibly helpful.
Thank you so much for clarifying the toners- that always confused me so much. I have genetic photo bleaching of brunette hair that color the roots my natural color at home. I will definitely try the Kristen Ess.
i used to always be blonde an it was nice but hair gels gave me split ends .i still have thick hair but they are finer now.. i really feel like dermarolling you're scalp gives you beautiful healthy thick hydrated hair too for hair goals ... ..
Exceptional video and such good information!! Thank you so much. Your hair is so gorgeous!!
I have to say I started using box hair dyes and honestly it's the best it has looked. I have spent $100's of dollars at salons and I'm never happy with it and always leave disappointed!! The last time I went to the salon it turned out nothing like I wanted and about 2-3 shades darker!! It took ages for me to fade it out was so disappointed
So very kind of you to share your wisdom on hair with those of us who might not know where to begin & especially with doing it yourself . .. Not everyone can afford the salon. Hopefully it will save many from experiencing the nightmares that I’ve had suffer with box color that my husband still to this day calls it a ten $ box of problems 🤣 btw...Your right.. Many would not be willing to share this information as you have.. Therefore you must care more!! :-) Well, thanks once again... have safe/wonderful day Xx
Absolutely loved this video and your personality. This was extremely helpful! Thank you! Subscribed!
You really do beautiful make up, too!
You really are stunning...and a very thoughtful person.
Thank you for this video. I washed it back when you posted but I needed it while I was away from home.
I’ve been to a salon before to go from dyed black hair to my natural color; it was expensive, my hair fell out, and in the end the color looked awful. Recently I did it myself with box color and went from dyed dark hair to my natural color which is dark blonde and it looks great! And my hair is still very healthy.
I have had professional highlights before, but in the last few years, it's DIY for me. My hair is actually naturally a light brown. As you can see in my pic, I have been able to keep my blonde color up, with Garnier Nutrisse LB01 ultra light cool blonde. I do use a toner and blue shampoo to maintain. It really doesn't look brassy either. I have been using it for about 5 years now. So glad I found your channel!
Sally’s hair colors & bleach are affordable & longer lasting then store bought boxes of color. I use Wella color Charm , it was recommended to me by my friend, who’s a hair stylist & she showed me how to do the roots , foils & what colors & bleach & toner to get. Which was nice of her ,because I can’t afford her prices
👋 hey

love your philosophy , so refreshing. i use box dye all the time because i just dont have the money every month to go to a hairdresser. thanks for this video.xx
Thank you for your advice and help. I can’t afford to go to the salon for a few more months, so now I feel like I can get rid of those gray roots on my reddish- brown hair and get rid of the brassiness too. Thank you 💜💜
Great video thank god someone who explains it so folk get it! Fortunately I'm pretty savvy when it comes to colouring my hair at home. Apart from bleaching and up until I started going to my current hairdresser, I'd do it myself and I've been a lot of different colours. I'm now at a level 9 and he does my roots with a 7, I'm naturally a level 3-4 but there's a lot of grey now. I bought the new loreal excellence cool colour in 7.11 and it came out gorgeous on my roots! I've got bleach London pearlescent shampoo and conditioner, and I'm delighted with the results! I fancy trying their rose and peach shampoos for a change. They're good quality and it's a nice way to have a bit of fun without wrecking your hair with colour that you can't get out without further damage because the colour washes out after a couple of shampoos xxx
That's me! 🙋♀️ This is my first time watching your videos! I subscribed of course. 💜 We can't all afford the salon. (I've had my hair salon colored once, and omg it was amazing!) Thank you for sharing this info with us!!! It's like you "remember where you came from" and you're not forgetting about us little people, lol. 👏Thank you!! 🙌
Olia has been my go to for the most hydrating color. Hair feels sooooo good after applying and rinsing. And the color is what it says, 100% gray coverage.
I needed you a month ago! 😭😭 I definitely had a boxed blonde tragedy on my brunette hair.
I have medium brown with lots of gray so I buy a dark blonde to cover the gray. It looks natural and fabulous. Never had any strange color issues.
The reason you've not had strange color issues, like turning orange, is because the blonde you're coloring with is coating the grays, which are a cooler tone. So the blonde is mixing with those cooler grays, now creating undertones, which aren't brassy. You're getting a more natural blonde highlight that way.
Merry Christmas Elle and to all of your family! Merry Christmas to all of your subscribers and the community! Have a great weekend and a joyful New Year to everyone! 🤗
i’m kinda high rn but i just got kinda emotional thinking about how you make beauty more accessible for women on a budget. thank you for the solidarity

You are so amazing!! GOD bless you 🙏🏽
I been watching your videos and I’m getting prepare to do my own hair 👀... I have all your step written down 😉
Many blessing 🙏🏽❤️🥰
Thank you for this video. This is just what I needed
I just saw your videos and why not before. I wish my hair dresser would watch your videos too. I love your work here
i recently just used the olia box dye in black and it came out absolutely amazing over my faded purple hair
My problem with e-salon was my hair just kept getting darker. I am strawberry blonde, and ended up auburn. Thanks, I've been enjoying your videos.
My stylist has the exact same values like u, she knows most people can't afford doing their hair in a salon every 6 weeks and she desn't judge, she gave me my formula and recommended few brands from to buy and gave me some pointers to how color my hair better and it's the best I could wish for
This is my first time to watch your video. I just can’t afford to go to the salon anymore. Just a fact. So I have to color my own hair. Thank you so much for the great information!
I really love how you explain everything thanks.
I love Olia! I color my hair once a month and this does not damage or dry out my hair and the color looks beautiful!
Thank you for this! Box dye, when used correctly, is fine. Ie: cover Grey's and keep within your natural hair shade, give or take.
Thank you for that. Always love hearing what you have to say!
Well this deserves triple thumps up and a loyal follow. 💯
I just love ❤️ u hunny!! Uve helped me so much with doing my hair myself at home! U even inspired me to start my own UA-cam channel 🤗 and my hair ones do so well so THANK U! for that hunny 😘 💗💗💗
Thanks for always sharing so much with us! I actually bought the redken shades eq 09p and 09n recently to do my hair and all of your tips have been so helpful!
Where did you get Redken from
@@renaissancewoman100 you can order it offline, I also have friends who are cosmetologist that have been willingto help out with the pandemic too......I just searched for redken shades eq and their processing developer to use with it. I'm not sure but Sally's or Walmart or something may have it too.... 🤔
