Subtle highlights

3 years ago
I am a frequent box hair dye user and have used many types of brands of permanent hair dyes, colour creams and foams, and bleaches for over 7 years. I like the vegan friendly ingredients in the Olia line and how it is ammonia free. I knocked off two stars because 1) there was very less product compared to other brand of highlight dyes and 2) the bleaching process for the highlights was very subtle. I would recommend adding a bit more product and changing the formula to something a bit stronger. Overall, I am happy to be able to try the product for free for my honest review and I would recommend this product for people with shoulder length (or shorter) hair or if they’re looking to add subtle highlights/custom light contouring to their locks. #trywithtopbox #freeproduct

Yes, I recommend this product.

It was okay

3 years ago
I received this for free in exchange for my job review, yes it was gentle on my hair and everything you need is in this small box including the mixing bowl. The consistency was very very thick you definitely won’t get any drip with this. I wish it lifted a little more than it did on my hair. Maybe I suggest applying a plastic hat and some heat for better results. #trybeforeyoubuy #topbox

No, I do not recommend this product.

A new favourite!

3 years ago
I received this #freeproduct through #trywithtopbox. I enlisted the help of my daughter to apply the highlights. The mixture is quite thick which makes it a bit hard to apply but it doesn't drip. There is no annoying smell and it didn't make my head itchy. I left the product on for 45 minutes and am very happy with the results. It would be good if there was more actual product to use. Anyone with longer hair would need another box. I have been using boxed dye for the past few years but have never tried boxed highlights. I will definitely be using this again.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Amonia Free

I received this #freeproduct from #topboxcircle to try for my honest review. It is my first time to highlight my hair. I scanned the barcode found in the box to see the application tutorial. The instructions is very straightforward and easy to follow. Like others comment, one box is not enough if you have thick and long hair. There is no strong smell. It has thick and like soft clay texture. The color and highlights are very natural. It makes my hair very smooth and soft after applying the silk and shine conditioner. I will highly recommend it. Thank you #topboxcircle for this opportunity.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Love it!

Garnier Olia Highlights Oil Powered for Brunettes was received as a free product as a part of topbox circle program. I think the product is more suitable for short to medium length hair. It has everything in a box which is super convenient. Easy instructions and easy application made my experience a pleasant journey to create my new style. I'm happy with the results and my hair looks fantastic! #freeproduct #trywithtopbox

Love The Brightness

3 years ago
I got the Garnier Olia Highlights Brunette kit #freeproduct from #trywithtopbox. I am so happy that I got the chance to try this highlighting kit, the results it gave me were beautiful natural highlights over my mixed grey/brunette hair. It is very easy to apply without any of the normal mess. With the clay mixture it really helps thicken and prevent dripping while using it to dye my hair. I love how my hair looks even more beautiful, shiny, and vibrant. My hair feels a lot softer and has a beautiful silk look to it. This is a product I definitely recommend for anyone to try.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Beautiful Results!

Gentle on your hair

3 years ago
I received this #freeproduct to try and provide my honest opinion on from #topbox. I adore that it's vegan and free from ammonia. The box came equipped with everything I needed. For reference my hair is shoulder length and I'm a brunette with very old unattended subtle highlights in my hair so i needed a spruce me up. Unfortunately there just wasn't enough to do all a full head( a second box would be needed) my hair is fine but there's alot of it so my sister did a half head of highlights on me by following an online video. Thick application so we didn't stain anything and I could actually walk around. Overall I'm happy with the results, I feel summer ready and my hair is soft and manageable- no breakage or drying.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Ammonia-Free Natural Highlights for Brunettes

3 years ago
I am so happy I bought this. I was very hesitant to use it as I coloured my hair way too dark and was worried it would lighten up too much or turn orange. But it didn’t! The highlights were very subtle as I chose to only leave it in for 25 minutes. I really liked the easy to follow instructions and the short video available in the website. I actually saw people’s videos on Pinterest using the product and those were helpful too. I think next time I might try the one for blondes to add as another level to my highlights but not sure-wonder if anyone’s tried that. Thank you! Great product. Very happy. Saved $$$ and time by doing this myself.

Yes, I recommend this product.
