Garnier Olia Hair Color Review

I found this new hair color at Walmart for around $9 and decided to give it a shot.  It boasted of no stinky smell, no amnonia, and the promise to leave my hair healthier than it was before I colored.  So I snatched up 6.43 in Light Natural Auburn to get rid of my freaky growing out highlights and the twenty odd white hairs gracing each side of my head!

I definitely love this product.  It was thicker than normal dyes which was a little odd to get used to at first.  It appears as though you have a lot more dye to work with, but it averages out to what is in every other brand because it is so much thicker.  I didn't notice any smell- at all, seriously.  Then again I'm still having sniffle issues from the flu and I have four pets so my sense of smell may be shot.  My hair was left feeling soft and looking shiny, there were nice curls and waves in it the day after when I first washed it which has NEVER been the case before.  Normally, my hair is flat and plastered to my head with tons of static and crunchy, coarse ends... not the case this time at all.  I'm definitely going to stick with Olia!

P.S. I'm not a big fan of the Rimmel BB Cream after one use.  It wore off fast and didn't blur imperfections as well as the lovely Stila 10 in 1 all day beauty balm that retails for $38.  Obviously in this case you get what you pay for.  I will keep searching though!
