About Olia
Unlike traditional hair dye, Olia uses a 60% oil blend with no ammonia natural flower oils to achieve brilliant, radiant color results. The oil powered technology propels colorants deep into the hair, giving you vivid, long-lasting color. Olia visibly improves and restores hair as the oils help to reverse roughness and dullness for more brilliant, long-lasting color. Olia-treated hair is hydrated, silky and up to 3X shinier than unwashed, uncolored hair.
The non-drip, velvety cream texture of Olia helps provide optimal comfort during application. Because Olia is ammonia-free, there is no harsh smell and it won't irritate your scalp. The hair dye kit includes everything you need: a developer applicator, a colorant tube, after-color conditioner, a set of gloves, and the instruction sheet. Follow the instruction sheet for the step-by-step process or watch our how-to videos below:

Questions
Q: Does your hair dye stain skin?Do I need to use Vaseline on my hairline and ears before using dye
3 days ago- 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!11 hours 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?
23 days 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!21 days 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?
29 days 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!27 days agoHelpful?
