Boots Permanent Hair Colour

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I am unfortunate enough to have to colour my hair regularly to cover up my very grey roots. In the past I have spent money in the hairdressers to have this done, but more often than not to save money I reluctantly colour it at home myself. The brand I previously used most often was Movida hair colour but I found that they tend to be one of the more expensive brands. So over the last few months I've sampled quite a few of the top brands, my choice determined by which was on offer in my supermarket at the time. I've found that they are all pretty much the same. ...  Read the complete review

I got a coupon for a free box of Boots own brand hair dye from the Advantage point at Boots. I regularly dye my hair, but tend to use Garnier Nutrisse and L’Oreal casting, rather than own brands. As this was free though, I decided to give it a go. ~About the product~ This is a home hair dye kit, which gives permanent colour and covers greys. There are 10 different shades available in the Boots Colour range, from blonde through to black. I bought Rich dark brown. ~Packaging~ The kit comes packaged in the usual small cardboard box that most kits come in. I thought the design was quite nice, and although the product is cheaper ...  Read the complete review

I have used quite a few different colour dyes in the boots own permanant dye range. They are very good value for money at only £3 each and they quite often have them on offer of 2 for £5 which is even better if you have very long hair like mine and need 2 bottles to dye your hair once. The dye is simple to use, you get a bottle and a tube like with most permenent dyes, you need to squeeze the tube into the bottle then shake to mix. It is very easy to apply to your hair as it is squeezed through a nozel and is quite thick in concistency. My hair is naturaly a mousy brown which looks horrid and i havent had my hair a natural colour for 15 ...  Read the complete review

Much as I love the whole salon experience - flicking through magazines for ideas, having someone massage my scalp as they shampoo and condition my hair, having expert colourists make my dull brown hair look full of life and shine, whilst being offered a coffee and being asked about my hols....(ok, so I don't love that bit, I wish they would just shut up and let me read Vogue for an hour or so, uninterrupted!)......- much as I love it, I just can't justify the cost. There is always something else that needs doing or paying for, and it is years since I had more than a cheap cut. I am fairly lucky that despite my advancing years (I am 38), the grey hair that ...  Read the complete review

Having recently found out I am expecting again I can't carry on bleaching my hair so needed a quick solution to get me back to my natural dark colour because my roots were getting bad. I decided to try Boots Permanent Rich Dark Chocolate colour, I bought two boxes today from boots, priced at £3.29 each they were on 3 for 2 (my 3rd item I didn't get dye with but leave in conditioner thankfully - more about that later!) I have really thick hair and I am glad that I purchased two of these although to be honest I probably could've done with a third box too. The bottle of dye which you use to apply the colour is a lot smaller than brand named dye which I was quite ...  Read the complete review
