L'Oreal Prodigy 7.3 Phoenix Natural Dark Golden Blonde Hair Dye

Wish if found this years ago. I badly damaged my hair over processing. It was left like chewing gum n breaking off. So i couldnt apply any colour with peroxide in as id damage it more.When my roots needing doing i used this.I smelt the developer and couldnt smell any high level of peroxide. shampooed and conditioner only on the mid lengths and ends.this is where people go wrong ,they conditionthe roots b4 a colour. If u do use conditioner on ur roots b4 a colour especially grey hair it will slide of the next day.It did not cover my grey in places so i need to pre pig roots before applying it again.Ive also brought olaplex no1 which you add to your colour and shake/mix well with the colour b4 aplying.No dryness no chewing gum hair and none fell out.I brought oak which leaves on grey roots a slight tinge of pinky orange which i love.Ive signed up for subscription monthly as i dye my roots monthly.Lovely gentle colour .cant rate high enough.Update: After 24 hours alot of the excess colour rinses of. This is the magical part.It blends my greys, im 90 per cent - Into the loveliest ash oak. I didnt have to do my roots for 6 weeks - normally with box colours its every 3 weeks! It just looks fantastic -my greys have a lovely sandy tone -as if they are lightly tinted ,which doesnt slide of if you set the colour for 24 hours! Ie do not shampoo after rinsing ,just lather the cream conditioner into all of your hair and dont rinse out imediately-let it hang around on your hair till its dry then rinse it off with Only Cool water :)

Easy instructions, leaves hair in lovely condition.very pleased.

Needed two applications to work. I have used the Prodigy range for a couple of years and it is excellent. I usually use 8.0 Dune and my hair had gone very blonde in the sun. So I wanted a change. Perhaps because I was going from a pale blonde to this darker colour, it wasn't effective. After the first application, my hair looked grey pink - it was awful. I used two boxes and left 48 hours between applications and now it looks great. Very pleased with the result. The Prodigy range is so good as you don't get a 'block' colour - it works with the natural tones in your hair and gives a great colour.

Absolutely the most appallingly awful hair dye I've ever had the misfortune to use. I would strongly recommend that you do not use this.The colour was supposed to be 'almond', a light brown, but it was nearly black. Not only that, the shade was just horrible.Equally as bad as the colour was the fact that it weighed my hair down so badly it could not be styled and regardless of my enormous efforts to get the colour to fade and to get the heaviness out, it would not budge and my hair would not regain its bounce.I spent 3 weeks washing my hair multiple times every day with washing up liquid and clarifying shampoos, even leaving them on then rubbing and rubbing, then rinsing and doing the same over and over. My hands were dry and cracked from all the washing and rubbing with nasty substances but the colour and the heaviness would not budge!! In the end I had to pay for highlights to lighten the colour and get rid of the heaviness.

I’m now an odd old mix of greys & blondes naturally - ranging from slate & steel grey to ash blonde. I’ve used the 7.4 Vermillion & it’s a wonderfully bright & dark natural looking copper. I absolutely adore it. I will (having read other reviews) be popping this as a regular monthly order. My hair is soft & has a great shine. I’ll update about how the colour & condition lasts & how regularly I’ll be timing my order again thingy for. I’ve got a fairly short kind of choppy pixie cut so we’ll see how it goes. But first impressions of the product are promising!

I originally was a little put off by the negative reviews but as I had bought the colour decided to give it a go. Left it on for the 30 recommended minutes and by the time I got in the shower it was a little more time. I have quite a lot of under grey hair and was delighted with the results. My husband even made comment which is rare. He is happy with the result also. I am a hairdresser and would recommend this colour. It is vibrant and has so many shades it makes your colour pop.

I have been colouring my hair on my own for s couple of years now and I've tried several products and I can say that When I found the Prodigy linea I found my soul mate. I've been using the Vermillion Natural colour and the first thing that I noticed is that this product doesn't stain your skin! It has god a good smell and the colour is brilliant, durable and natural! I also continue to receive compliments for my hair color.It comes with everything you need in the box and with some really easy to follow instructions. I won't change brand.

Macadamia. It's stunning. Hair feels shiny and so soft. I always do a 48hr test behind the ear. It was fine so I went ahead. You get a lot of product so I only used 1 bottle and my hair is shoulder length. It has a lovely light floral fragrance, barely noticeable. I am so happy it covered my 25% stubborn grey area (unlike OLIA) it looks really rich and shiny and feels bouncy and soft.My 1st time using PRODIGY. Will be using again in time for daughters wedding!
