FAQs

Is Garnier Olia Permanent Hair Colour truly ammonia-free?

Yes, Garnier Olia is formulated without ammonia, relying on an oil-powered delivery system for colour penetration, which contributes to a more pleasant scent experience during application.

How does the oil-based formula benefit my hair?

The formula contains 60% oils with natural flower oils that help to deliver colour deep into the hair fiber. This technology is designed to improve the visible quality of your hair, leaving it softer, shinier, and feeling healthier after colouring.

Will this product cover 100% of my grey hair?

Yes, Garnier Olia Permanent Hair Colour is specifically designed to provide 100% grey coverage, ensuring a uniform and natural-looking result.

Why is the 48-hour skin allergy test so important?

Hair colourants can cause severe allergic reactions in some individuals. The 48-hour skin allergy test is a critical safety measure required before *each* use to help identify potential reactions and prevent serious harm. Always perform it as directed.

How long will the colour last?

Garnier Olia is a permanent hair colour. This means the colour will not wash out but will grow out with your hair. Longevity can also depend on hair care routine and exposure to elements like sun or chlorine.

Can I use this product if I have a sensitive scalp?

Garnier Olia is formulated for optimal scalp comfort. However, individual sensitivities vary. It is absolutely essential to perform the 48-hour skin allergy test every time you intend to use the product, regardless of previous experiences.

What should I do if the colour result isn't what I expected?

Colour results can be influenced by your current hair colour, porosity, and previous treatments. Always refer to the shade guide on the packaging. If the result is significantly different or undesirable, it is best to consult with a professional hairstylist for corrective measures.

Troubleshooting

Allergic reaction (itching, redness, swelling)

Immediately rinse hair and scalp thoroughly with water. Seek medical attention if symptoms persist or worsen. Always perform the 48-hour skin allergy test before each use to prevent such reactions.

Colour did not take or grey coverage is incomplete

Ensure you followed the mixing ratios and processing time exactly as specified in the instruction leaflet. Hair condition (e.g., very porous hair) or prior treatments can affect results. Ensure full saturation of hair strands during application.

Colour appears too dark or too light

Colour results can vary based on your natural hair colour, previous treatments, and hair porosity. Always check the 'before' and 'after' shade guide on the box. For significant correction, consult a professional hairstylist.

Scalp discomfort or irritation during application

While Olia is designed for optimal scalp comfort, individual sensitivity varies. Ensure the 48-hour allergy test was performed. If discomfort is severe, rinse immediately. Do not continue if irritation persists.

Product smells strong or unpleasant despite being ammonia-free

While ammonia-free, the product still contains other chemical ingredients that may have a scent. Ensure good ventilation during application. The scent is generally milder than traditional ammonia-based dyes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Perform Allergy Test: This is the most critical step. You must perform a skin allergy test 48 hours before each use of this product. Apply a small amount of the product mix to a patch of skin (e.g., behind the ear or inner elbow) and observe for any reaction.
  2. Read Instructions: Thoroughly read and understand the entire instruction leaflet provided in the box before beginning the colouring process.
  3. Prepare Workspace: Lay down old towels or newspaper to protect surfaces. Wear old clothing.
  4. Gather Tools: Ensure you have a non-metallic bowl (if mixing manually), applicator bottle, gloves, and a timer ready.
  5. Mix Product: Follow the leaflet's instructions precisely to mix the colour cream and developer. Shake well if using an applicator bottle.

  • It is compatible with most hair types seeking a permanent light brown colour.
  • Not recommended for use on hair that has been coloured with henna or a progressive colourant.

Care

  • Post-Colour Rinse: After the processing time, rinse your hair thoroughly with lukewarm water until the water runs clear.
  • Conditioning: Use the conditioner provided in the pack to nourish your hair and seal the cuticles, enhancing shine and softness.
  • Gentle Washing: For subsequent washes, use colour-safe shampoos and conditioners to help maintain the vibrancy and longevity of your colour.
  • Limit Heat Styling: Excessive heat styling can fade colour. Use heat protectants when styling.
  • Sun Protection: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can also fade colour. Consider using leave-in products with UV filters.
