L'Oreal Paris Couleur Experte 2-Step Home Hair Color and Highlights Kit, French Éclair

Amazon did a wonderful job of delivering this to me within two days, and during the holiday period no less, so I was thrilled with that! Over the years, I've always tried sticking to L'Oreal's Les Blondissime hair color, and I've loved it, too--but, as I've gotten older, going that blonde just wasn't as pleasing for me as it used to be--I'd tried several other shades in brown-brunette, but I always went back to the Les Blondisseme is self-defense--the plainer browns just dragged my complexion down[I'm very fair complected], and they ended by looking so downright drab, and my going into the red shades was really a no-no, to me!--I was about to just give up, when I spotted this L'Oreal Paris Couleur Experte Express Hair Color in the French Eclair, and for some reason I decided to give it a try, even though I had some serious doubts--but, now, am I ever glad I did try it! It was so easy to use--first, I put on the darker shade--once it was rinsed out, then I had dried my hair, I put on the lighter shade--I have to admit to being somewhat nervous since I've only used two different colors on my hair, one right after the other, this way once before some 38 years ago, when I tried frosting my hair using one of those caps, etc.--what an awful experience that was!--but, this L'Oreal product doesn't require you to use a cap at all, which was wonderful!--however, at first, when I saw how dark the first color had made my hair I was a bit nervous about that!--but, I pressed on, and put on the lighter shade as directions dictated--and, when I rinsed it all out, conditioned, set and dried my hair, I was not just pleased, I was ecstatic!--the top layers of my hair were streaked with the lighter color, with the darker shade peaking out between the top strands, as well as all underneath--and, for some reason, I just fell in love with the combination!--not to mention how great it made my hair look!-- --so, thanks to L'Oreal, I had finally solved the dilemma I'd run into--I could now have it both ways, with my hair now both dark and light--and I can't tell you how well it suits me at my age, as well--the lighter color brightens up my features, while the darker color seems to ground everything, lending far more dignity to my over-all appearance--and, for that, I can't thank L'Oreal enough!--now, I will never need to resort to simply going with over-all grey hair just because I couldn't find a proper shade for my hair that really, really helped me, instead of making things worse--and, at my age [64], I've found that to be vital to help boost my flagging self-esteem/self-image!

I have been using this coloring and highlighting kit since the 2020 pandemic and I love it. It is so easy to use and saves me a lot of money over going to the beauty salon. The light ash brown was the perfect color for my normal hair color and the finger highlights actually look salon done. I have naturally curly hair and even if I get more highlights in some strands than others it is not noticeable because the highlights are subtle. The finger tip was hard to use the first time or two that I used this kit but after I got used to it I feel like a pro now. It is a fast and easy hair color and highlight kit.

This is a great coloring kit. It’s true to the color match , easy directions to follow and my hair turned out great . I mainly used it to put highlights in my hair loved it

The first photo is plain hair before coloring, second photo is with just a base color. My hair has a tendency to pull red anyway so it looked kind of coppery, and then the third picture is what the highlights look like, kind of scattered on the top. My hair looks more red in the photo than it actually is in real life. It’s more of a Mahogany with blonde streaks. I thought it was really easy to use. I put on the base color and then waited two days and then did my highlights. There was plenty of base color. I only used one box for the base and my hair is pretty long, but fairly fine but the highlights there wasn’t a whole lot. I would’ve liked a little more to have highlighted under my hair for when I pull it up. All in very pleased with results, but next time I think I’ll have someone help with highlights as doing the back by myself was hard. The conditioner included really makes your hair smell good and feel super soft♥️

Excellent hair color from leader in quality home hair coloring.

Me encantan cuidan mucho el cabello excelente calidad

This is my favorite shade and the color lasts months. Highly recommend this brand.

Based on the picture I thought this matched my hair color but, it is nearly black. Make no mistake it is still a brown tint but super dark. It is not what I wanted but with my green eyes it’s fine for now but, I don’t think I’ll buy it again. I am not a Typical home user as I go to a Solon to do my hair but with Covid that’s not possible so I was trying to do something. It was easy to do and it did cover the gray very well. However it didn’t state if I should or should wash my hair first before applying, and it didn’t say with the highlights do I just apply it after the overall color. I think they “assume” people already understand all of the basics and that users are not FIRST time users at home. Another example of this assuming we all know everything is: They told me to test it on my hair And the same thing with the highlights but they didn’t provide any baseline for what I was looking for in the test. Totally lost and intimidated because the lack of knowledge sharing, but I just did it anyhow and it was fine...just way too dark.
