Covered my grays perfectly, smelled heavenly. I had a lot left over too in the bottle it went on super easy. Packaging was your normal box dye setup.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have brown hair and wanted to go dark but not too dark, so a soft black was what are you?It chose to use to color my hair, and I cannot be happier! It was so easy to apply, and 2 boxes was plenty to cover my thick hair from root to tip. Looks professional for a low price point straight from the shelves of any grocery store. I love it!
Rich Brown, stunning shine.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's been a while since I've dyed my hair, so this was a nice surprise to have in getting a new look! L'oreal hair care has been a trusted name, and this stunning color was of no surprise - absolutely gorgeous. It created bold, rich brown tones and left my hair incredibly soft. It's been about a month since dying and color hasn't faded in the least. 5/5 stars!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My hair has always been black, but I hate that it becomes dull super fast. I’ve used L’Oréal for the last 12 months and I’ve seen it more shiny and smooth, my hair is not breaking as much as I don’t loose much hair after dying. So I totally will keep using it

I’ve used the 6am color for years. This brand offers the best gray coverage overall but the color has always been perfect. I just returned to the color after about 2 years off. The new 6am color turned out more copper. I found 2 of my original boxes this month and it’s the color I’m used to from years ago. Not sure if the box change came with a formula change. Either way, the color takes to gray very well and my natural red hair blends in perfectly with the colored grays.
Great coverage for grays, but irritated my scalp s

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Application is easy you mix everything together in a bottle container and apply, The scent is very chemically strong i wish they would get rid of it, it kind of irritated my scalp a little it, It comes in a box with instructions and a conditioner, i applied the conditioner that comes inside the box, coverage its great it covered my grays... You see the results but it irritated my scalp a little bit.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I gave this hair color to my niece. She loves to color her hair regularly. I will post a pic when I can. She stated it was gentle on her already colored hair and did not cause any damage. L’Oreal is always a good trusted product for hair and make up!

I colored my hair for 35 years and they have definitely changed the product. It no longer colors hair blond only luminescent red! It so disappointing. I am not sure what they have done but it is NOT a good product any longer!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great home kit for a beginner. It comes with everything you need to color your hair. Directions are easy to read and follow. Does a great job of color coverage. Does not smell to terrible. Definitely great for a home user when you can’t get to the salon
Very good

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great color shine. It leaves your hair with a great texture and the application was super easy. Not a very strong scent to it packaging as expected.
Great coverage for my grey hair!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] L’Oréal is always the brand I go for when I think about hair products. I liked how Superior Preference hair color covers the grey hair and gives it a shine. After a few washes, my hair got a little red, but I liked the results of the color overall. The only con was that the smell is strong when you apply it to your hair.
The hair dye provides a nice natural look

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I find the hair dye provides a nice natural look that stays vibrant for several weeks and is easy to apply with detailed instructions. The product leaves hair silky smooth and fresh. The color is absolutely amazing too.
Color matches great! Smell of dye is horrible!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The application of the L’Oreal Fade defying hair color was the same as others, pretty straightforward. I have pretty long hair past the middle of my back and 1 box covered it all well. I gave 4 stars because the smell stuck out as worse than others to me. If you are sensitive to smells this will be a problem. It was burning my eyes. Just my honest opinion as incentive for receiving the product. I have had it dyed for over a couple months now with little showing of grow out. The color matches pretty well. I am impressed.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve tried a lot of at-home hair color kits, but L’Oréal Paris Superior Preference totally exceeded my expectations! 🙌🏼 The formula was super easy to mix and apply—no mess, no drips. It has a nice, salon-quality feel and the scent wasn’t overpowering like some other dyes I’ve used before. I especially loved the conditioner that came with it—my hair felt SO soft and looked insanely shiny afterward ✨ The color came out rich, even, and exactly what I hoped for. It gave me that dimensional, luminous finish that doesn’t look flat or dull. Best part? It’s been weeks and the color is still vibrant and hasn’t faded out like others usually do. 🫶🏼 Perfect for anyone who wants salon results without the price tag 💇♀️💸 Definitely repurchasing!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Absolutely beautiful color in a super-easy-to-use hair color kit. It smells all right, and its creamy texture won't run and stain your skin. Your hair will be shiny and soft after application. It's long lasting and fades naturally. Recommended.

This is the second time I have used this in the past 6 months. I have used this hair color in Dark Blonde many times. I have a pink tint to my hair! I also noticed this when i used it 6 months ago. My natural hair color is very light blonde with very little gray. This has not happened before 6 mths to 1 year ago. I use this hair dye regular about every 6 months. I will NEVER use it again! I AM NOT PLEASED! I DO NOT want pink hair!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is easy to apply, while the scent is not my cup of tea it’s not awful either. It will give you decent coverage but being that it’s so pigmented be careful because it’ll be hard to work with for a stylist. The packaging is normal.
