Advantages: cheap, easy to use Disadvantages: can be messy!
'm also not sure why I decided to use Loreal Casting to do so, but I did, and I'm really glad of it.
This was the first brand of dye that I used, and I was really pleased with the results. I have since tried other brands - Garnier Nutrisse and I think one by Wella - but I've always came back to this brand, as I find it's the easiest to use and gives the best and longest lasting results.
~~About the dye~~
This hair dye is a tone on tone gel colourant and contains no ammonia.
It promises to give Natural looking colour and ultra-shiny highlights.
This will cover first greys
The box states that this will last up to 6 weeks with no visible roots, but I have found it to last something nearer to 10 weeks.

Obviously, as I am reviewing L'Oreal Casting Creme Gloss, this was my final choice. But why?
Firstly, brand recognition. I use a lot of L'Oreal hair care and make up products, and I would have to admit that it is one of my preferred brands. The pictures on the packaging were very believable, unlike other boxes which, to be honest, looked very cheap and didn't do much justice to their product.

The idea of a cream caught my attention, as it lead me to belive that the application would be more even. The colour chart on the outside showed a not too dramatic ...
