Highlights
Quality
The color is vibrant and rich, and it really does live up to its promise of fade-defying radiance for up to 9 weeks.
Great product with the ease of use and cleanup!
If you are dyeing your hair for the first time, or struggle with this, i would recommend the l'oreal excellence creme line instead.
Always apply a restorative moisturizing mask to your hair after color treatment and your hair should be jus5 fine.

I have the money to spend on what works best so that's not the issue.

The color turned out exactly as shown on the box—rich, vibrant, and full of shine.

Competitiveness
This line has never let me down for the past 6 years and i have no intention of trying other brands as it's my holy grail.
Her stylist tried to explain why their (much more expensive) products were so much better.
I would try a new, more expensive salon and would end up with fairly similar results.

One thing ive learned over years of dying my own hair with box dye is that it often comes out extremely saturated or dark on me at first and then fades after a wash or two to be the color on the box
