FAQs
What is the 10% Glycolic Gloss Complex?
The 10% Glycolic Gloss Complex is a new addition to the Casting Crème Gloss formula. It is designed to significantly enhance hair's shine, making it up to 3x glossier, and improve its texture, leaving it up to 4x silkier, contributing to visibly healthier hair.
How long will the Chestnut Honey 634 color last?
This semi-permanent hair dye is designed to last for up to 32 shampoos. The duration can vary slightly depending on hair type, frequency of washing, and care routine.
Is Casting Crème Gloss a permanent hair dye?
No, it is a semi-permanent hair dye. This means the color gradually washes out over time, typically lasting up to 32 shampoos, offering a low-commitment option compared to permanent dyes.
Do I need to do a patch test every time I color my hair?
Yes, it is crucial to perform a patch test 48 hours before each and every use, even if you have used hair colorants before. This helps to identify any potential allergic reactions.
Is this hair dye ammonia-free?
Yes, L'Oréal Paris Casting Crème Gloss is an ammonia-free conditioning color. This ensures a gentler coloring experience without the strong chemical odor often associated with traditional hair dyes.
Can I use this product to cover grey hair?
Casting Crème Gloss is excellent for blending away first greys and enhancing your natural hair color with radiant tones. While it can offer some grey coverage, it is not designed for full or resistant grey coverage like permanent dyes.
What comes in the box?
Each L'Oréal Paris Casting Crème Gloss pack typically contains the colorant crème, developer crème, a conditioning balm, a pair of gloves, and an instruction leaflet.
Troubleshooting
I experienced a reaction after using the product.
A patch test is crucial. If you experience any allergic reaction (itching, redness, swelling), do not use the product. Consult a medical professional if symptoms persist or worsen.
The color is uneven or patchy.
Ensure thorough and even saturation of the hair during application. Make sure to mix the colorant and developer completely. Applying on clean, detangled hair helps achieve uniform results.
The color seems too light or not vibrant enough.
Ensure the mixture was left on for the recommended development time. Hair porosity and initial hair color can affect the final shade; darker original hair may yield a more subtle result. Ensure adequate product quantity for hair length and thickness.
The color faded faster than expected (before 32 shampoos).
Using non-color-safe shampoos, washing hair too frequently, or prolonged exposure to strong sunlight/chlorine can accelerate fading. Use color-safe products and consider cooler water when washing.
My hair feels dry or damaged after coloring.
While Casting Crème Gloss is conditioning and ammonia-free, ensure you used the provided conditioning balm as directed. If dryness persists, incorporate deep conditioning treatments into your routine. Over-processing (leaving the mixture on too long) can also cause dryness, so always follow the timing instructions.

Cons

Temporary Results: Color washes out after approximately 32 shampoos, requiring re-application for continuous color.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup and Preparation
Perform a Patch Test: This is a crucial safety step. Apply a small amount of the unmixed colorant and developer behind your ear or on your inner elbow 48 hours before full application. Check for any allergic reactions like redness, itching, or swelling. Do not proceed if you experience any reaction.
Read Instructions Thoroughly: Before you begin, carefully read the entire instruction leaflet provided inside the product box.
Gather Supplies: Ensure you have an old towel, a timer, and the included gloves ready. Protect your clothing and surrounding surfaces from potential stains.
Prepare Hair: For best results, ensure your hair is clean and dry, or lightly damp as per instructions. Avoid washing hair immediately before coloring as natural oils can provide some protection.
Application Steps
Mix Colour and Developer: Put on the gloves provided. Unscrew the cap of the developer bottle and add the entire contents of the colorant tube into it. Replace the cap firmly.
Shake Well: Shake the bottle vigorously until the mixture is completely uniform and creamy.
Apply Mixture: Immediately cut off the tip of the applicator nozzle. Apply the mixture evenly to dry or lightly damp hair, starting at the roots and working your way through to the ends. Ensure complete saturation for even color.
Leave On: Refer to the instruction leaflet for the specific development time. Typically, this is around 20-25 minutes. Use a timer.
Rinse Thoroughly: Once the development time is complete, rinse your hair thoroughly with warm water until the water runs clear.
Apply Conditioner: Apply the provided conditioning balm. Leave it on for a few minutes (as directed) to nourish your hair and help seal the color.
Final Rinse: Rinse thoroughly again.
Compatibility
This product is designed for adult use.
It is suitable for natural, color-treated, or highlighted hair.
It is not recommended for heavily bleached or chemically straightened hair without professional advice.
Care and Maintenance
Gentle Washing: Use color-safe shampoos and conditioners to help prolong the vibrancy of your Chestnut Honey shade.
Avoid Excessive Heat: Limit the use of hot styling tools, as high heat can cause color to fade faster.
Protect from Sun: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause hair color to lighten. Consider wearing a hat or using UV protection hair products.
Re-application: As the color is semi-permanent and lasts up to 32 shampoos, plan to re-apply when you notice significant fading or wish to refresh your shade.
