L'Oreal ParisProfessional Techniques Frost and Design, Caramel, 1-Count

I liked this so much that I bought another one two weeks later. I successfully changed my cool toned brown hair into a vibrant, summer streaked blonde. Instructions were very easy and I prepped my hair for about a week prior to using it. I am NOT a hairdresser so I tried to take every precaution - a few hair masks and lots of conditioning. I mixed the product, placed the bag nice and tight on my head, and proceeded to take very thin amounts of hair around my face. I let it sit for a full 60 minutes (light yellow-do not be fooled by the dried bleach because it looks lighter than it is until you rinse), and then followed the instructions on how to rinse and condition. The result is honey colored, sun-kissed highlights. I love it! As I stated, I did get another box and repeated the process so that I could lighten more. It is now 4 weeks post and my hair is a little dryer, as expected , but I bought some extra conditioner (Aveda) and so far, I am thrilled. I will definitely use this again. Oh, and I saved about $250. Win win.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Cheaper than the store and I couldn’t find it in a store

The color of this product is beautiful. I have dark brown hair and this gives me perfect blonde highlights. The longer you leave it on the lighter the hair gets. I always leave it on for the max time. Super easy to use, my husband does my hair for me. Make sure u pull the strands all the way through the cap so your hair doesn't look blotchy. The quality of this product is better than any I've ever used. I use to buy this in store but now you can only get it online from Amazon! The texture isn't gritty and its easier to mix than you may think. Will always buy this brand and product. Make sure to follow the directions on the box and you will habe no problem. Just remember to allow yourself up to 2 hours. This is from start to finish. It does take time to get the hair pulled through the cap. I use every other hoke. Covers gray too which is a major plus for me!

It went from super dark-brown to as shown in the picture. I've shouldn't have made so many highlights. This was my first time using it. After 30 minutes my hair was super hot so I stopped the process and didn't let it go for a few minutes more like I was supposed to. It takes lots of time, especially if you have long hair. But it worked. How much that would have cost me in a salon???

Nice

First time to try DIY highlighting at home. Decent results because I wasn’t too picky. I was ready to run to my neighborhood salon if it ended up worse than this. This is acceptable result though there is no way I could have done this by myself. Had to rope the hubby to pull the hair for me because I wouldn’t be able to see which holes to poke and pull from esp towards the back of scalp. Took 2hrs for everything. Had to just poke all the holes in the cap before putting it on because it was a challenge to poke thru 2 pcs of plastic while trying not to hurt my scalp. This was every other round holes on the cap guide. Other cons: since I have thick but fine hair, it looks like I split/broke/pulled a lot of hair. So much hair fall when I showered. Also hair did not feel conditioned or smooth (in fact it felt very dry and brittle) even after that toner rinse. Unlike when you use conditioner in other color dye kits, it did not feel hydrated, soft, conditioned at all. Will probably buy another silicon highlighting cap next time.

Perfect
