Q: Can I mix the 8.0 medium blonde with the 7.0 dark blonde in a bowl? I am concerned 8.0 too light and 7.0 too dark.
A: Wow, Garnier Consumer Care you really don't want customers do you. Very unprofessional response, making the consumer sound like they didn't have a valid question. Do us all a favor and go back to training
submitted byAllyO - 1 year agoA: After your response to me on my question to you, I had to research one of your competitors who answered that exact same question I inquired of their 2 very similar dark and medium blonde colors. Their answer was: Yes, you can most certainly mix the two colors together to get a color that is best suited to your color desire. And that many of their customers did just that. And so.....I used their color instead and I was very happy with the results. If your OLIA ever changes its stance on their answer please let me know. I am aware that your hair formula is very nourishing, silky and gentle for the hair. Thank you. :
submitted bypamelafs - 4 years agoA: Hi there Pamelafs! We are not fans of mixing colors. Its hard to predict the results and even harder to replicate the results each time you color. It makes no sense to even consider mixing until you have used the 2 colors you're considering, otherwise, how do you know if one is too light and one is too dark.
submitted byGarnier Consumer Care - 5 years agoBrand expertA: I mixed 2 olia colors together for years with good results! Yes it's more time consuming but it allows you to create the precise color that you want
submitted byjoanie - 3 months agoA: Your response! Really? "It makes no sense to even consider..." you say. Quite an opinionated and judgmental sentence to answer with as a professional representing Garnier. How about saying instead: "Best to try out one or both of colors you're considering so you know whether one is too light, or one is too dark since we do not recommend mixing of colors as it is hard to predict the results and even harder to replicate the results each time you color."

Q: My hair is dark brown w/grown-out old coloring that is light brown & I want to use one of the pink/rose quartz dyes. Garnier reps say that it's meant for undyed hair & that "special considerations" must be made for dyed hair. What product can I use?
A: Hi there! The Garnier Olia Bolds 7.20 Dark Rose Quartz is formulated to work on natural medium brown or lighter hair. Since your hair is dark brown there would be no noticeable change in your hair color. You would have to bleach your hair to a blonde shade and then apply the color. The product states not recommended on highlighted or bleached hair due to the intense color result that will be achieved. If you don't mind a more intense color than shown on the box, then bleach your hair first and apply the Garnier Olia 7.20 shade. Only bleach your hair if you feel your hair is in good condition before additional processing. Thank you!

Q: Is Olia permanent hair color hydrogen peroxide free? It says amonia free, but that does not necesarily mean peroxide free. Please advise as I can not use a hair color that contis hdroxogen peroxide
A: Hi Twin! I don't see hydrogen peroxide in the ingredients. I would also recommend doing a patch test before using this hair color to be sure you're not sensitive to other ingredients, hope this helps :)
submitted byTarget Beauty Consulting - 3 years agoBrand expertA: Hi Twin, Thanks for reaching out! Olia Hair Color is Ammonia-Free, however it is formulated with Peroxide. Our hair color is an oil powered permanent hair color. We thank you for your interest in Garnier!

Q: Which color is darker the darkest brown 3.0 or the darkest platinum brown 3.11?
A: Hi there Marie! Both colors are darkest browns so one is not darker or lighter than the other. The Olia shade 3.0, "Darkest Brown," is the natural version of the darkest of the brown shades and provides 100% gray coverage. It is best for anyone with natural hair between light brown and black. The Olia shade 3.11, "Darkest Platinum Brown," is the darkest of the brown shades with the addition of strong, ashy reflects for an intensely cool shade with a platinum, metallic-like shine. It also provides 100% gray coverage and is best for anyone with natural hair between light brown and black.
submitted byGarnier Consumer Care - 3 years agoBrand expertA: Hi Marie! Shade 3.11 Darkest Platinum Brown is going to be the darkest shade, hope this helps :)

Q: Is medium brown darker or lighter than medium neutral brown?
A: Hi there CAM! Actually, the medium brown 5.0 and medium neutral brown 5.03 are both medium brown colors so one is not any darker than the other. The medium brown 5.0 is the natural version of a medium brown and the medium neutral brown 5.03 has a slightly “cool” undertone and is a best choice for hair that tends to end up with unwanted reddish tones when dyed.
submitted byGarnier Consumer Care - 4 years agoBrand expertA: Hi Cam! Medium neutral brown is darker than medium brown. Hope this helps :)

Q: Hi I have very light hair, a level 10 or 11 my natural hair color is really dark black. It naturally is a level 1 or 2. I was wondering if the shade 1.0 would help me get back to that? Also how long would it last?
A: Hi Ally! You would need to fill the hair with red pigment first, then you would have better luck using a black dye. If you use a red toned brown first, then applied a level 1 or 2, you would have a better result. If you use a box dye, follow all directions on the box or in the information packet.

submitted byTarget Beauty Consulting - 4 years agoBrand expertA: Hi there Ally! You can get back to all one dark color, however, going darker over highlighted/ bleached hair is tricky. To avoid odd discolored results on the bleached hair you need to custom mix 2 colors together to get a natural looking result. To get a formula you can mix and use at home, call our 800# to speak to one of our haircolor specialists. Our number is 800-442-7643 our hours are from 9 AM to 5:00 PM ET M – F

Q: I have dark brown almost black hair naturally. I recently colored my hair with John Frieda foam color dark red. Didn’t show much. Looking to get a wine plum color, but not too too drastic. If I use the dark garnet red, what can I expect?
A: Hi Kirmc! We recommend taking a look at the side of the box (can be viewed in product images next to the main product image), to get an idea of what kind a result you will get using this color over different shades of hair. We also recommend following the instructions included in the box. If you’re looking for more assistance, our Virtual Beauty Consultants can help make shade recommendations and answer other hair coloring questions.

submitted byTarget Beauty Consulting - 4 years agoBrand expertA: Hi there! The Olia shade 4.62, "Dark Garnet Red" was specially designed with long lasting, deep red color with a hint of burgundy reflects. It is best for anyone with natural hair between light brown and black. (definitely check out the color cue on the side panel of any color you're interested in) Choosing a rich red is a great choice for dark hair like yours, the red tones are more likely to be noticeable against the natural dark hair.

Q: can i use this on black dyed hair
A: Hey there! Once the hair has been dyed black, the only colors that can be successfully used on that hair are black dyes. Dyed hair is much harder to lighten than natural hair. No hair dye is strong enough to lighten artificial pigment. To go lighter first you would have to have a salon professional strip out the dark dye first with a bleach lightener made for removing dark hair dye.

Q: how soon can you recolor
A: Hi there Suekow! While you normally would color the hair again when you have new roots ready for color....if you need to go darker to cover up a color that's too light or too bright or to correct spots you missed last time you can do that as soon as 48 hours after the last coloring. IF you need to go lighter, coloring again will not help. Dyed hair is much harder to lighten than natural hair. No hair dye is strong enough to lighten artificial pigment.
submitted byGarnier Consumer Care - 5 years agoBrand expertA: Excellent question! It's generally suggested to wait at least four weeks between coloring hair. Hope this helps :)
