As autumn unfolds and the New Year draws near, the urge for a fresh hair transformation beckoned. Personally, I’ve taken matters into my own hands. I’ll admit, I’m not a salon enthusiast. Social anxiety makes the experience a tad uncomfortable, and the time spent commuting and waiting at the salon is a luxury I can’t afford with a full-time job and a myriad of other commitments. So, I’ve become quite the at-home hair dyeing Jedi, turning it into a delightful self-pampering ritual.

Achieve strong and healthy-looking hair that provides 100% grey coverage while being ammonia-free with Schwarzkopf Oleo Intense. The oil in the formula boosts the penetration of the colour pigments, providing a rich and long-lasting colour. Kit contains everything needed for precise application. Find your perfect shade using the shade guide on the back of pack. This shade is suitable for medium blonde to medium brown shades in my case I went for a deep chocolate colour.

So far the result was a rich colour and a very soft hair, long lasting that doesn’t fade after a couple of washes.
