29 days agoOriginally posted on 10.0 - Very Light Blonde

Q: I've always used Nutrisse Ultra Creme #93 Light Golden Blonde. Am considering trying Olia #90 Light Blonde to touchup roots when needed. Would this blend well with Nutrisse that is on my mids and ends?
a month agoOriginally posted on 9.0 - Light Blonde
- A: Hello, Absolutely you can use Olia 9.0 Light Blonde on your roots instead of Nutrisse 93 Light Golden Blonde. Just keep in mind you will have a little less warmth on the roots, but it will blend nicely. Thanks for your interest in Garnier!a month agoHelpful?
Q: I have lightest golden brown hair and want to keep this light shade . Which Olia shade do you recommend that will also cover the grey well.

Q: How soon can you touch up your color with the ammonia free hair color?
5 months agoOriginally posted on 3.11 - Darkest Platinum Brown
- A: Hello, Thanks for reaching out! Usually, the time between touching up your roots is about four to six weeks. The faster your hair grows, the more often you need your roots touched up, so in this case you can touch up in 3 weeks. We thank you for your interest in Garnier!5 months agoHelpful?
Q: Does your hair dye stain skin?Do I need to use Vaseline on my hairline and ears before using dye
5 months agoOriginally posted on 3.11 - Darkest Platinum Brown
- A: Hi there, Yes, applying a barrier like Vaseline (petroleum jelly) around your hairline, ears, and neck is highly recommended. It creates a protective wall that prevents the dye from seeping into and staining your skin. Thanks for your interest in Garnier!5 months agoHelpful?
Q: The medium brown 5.0 was a little too dark. Which shade do you recommend that would be just a tiny bit lighter?
6 months agoOriginally posted on 5.0 - Medium Brown
- A: Hello, Thanks for reaching out! We suggest using a clarifying shampoo to fade your hair color. Fading is a gradual process and may require multiple sessions to achieve the desired shade. Once the color has faded we suggest trying Olia 6.0 Light Brown in a touch up application. We thank you for your interest in Garnier!6 months agoHelpful?
Q: 1. How long do i have to wait until i can wash my hair? 2. how long do i have to wait until i can redye my ends with the same color?
6 months agoOriginally posted on 6.0 - Light Brown
- A: Hi random90210, Thanks for reaching out! Wait a minimum of 24 hours after your color process for best results. When applying hair color its best to wait until the last 5-10 minutes of processing time to touch up the ends. This prevents over processing. Thanks for your interest in Garnier!6 months agoHelpful?

7 months agoOriginally posted on 8.0 - Medium Blonde
