L'oreal Sublime Mousse

I have always chopped and changed my hair colour, much to it's dismay. Usually from a blondey-brown to dark brown- and back again. I have never really experimented with red, but did once go ultra blonde in an attempt to emmulate Britney Spears in her heyday- Big, BIG mistake resulting in my hair camouflaging with my yellowish skin, resulting in a rather bald appearance (or as my Father kindly put it "you look like your hair is a big heap of cotton wool with custard poured over it").
So in more recent years, I tend to go slightly lighter in summer, and dark in winter. Around Christmas time 2010 I dyed my hair brown again, but this quickly faded exposing the underneath blonde highlights. Out of laziness I have just left my hair be for a few months, but after hearing about the new L'oreal Sublime Mousse colourants I thought I'd freshen up my brown tresses before the inevitable blond highlights make their return in a few months. I bought the permanent colour in Delicious Light Brown.


This product is easier to apply than traditional hair colourants and is "moussey" but the mousse soon frazzles out and leaves a head of liquid.

But most disappointing was the eventual finished colour- it was NOT light brown at all, in fact more of a dark, reddy brown. Though, luckily, I do still like it. My hair is also quite shiny.
The end result (it is actually darker than this)
In conclusion- nothing special or different from the norm.

To follow up with the new colour, I am also getting my hair cut tomorrow evening at a specialist curly hair salon in Portobello Road. Will let you know how I get on....

Have a nice day!
