Since the middle of the 20th century, the well-known French brand Garnier has been producing products of excellent quality, which never ceases to receive rave reviews from millions of women around the world. Innovative technologies are actively used to create popular Garnier cosmetics. Among the products manufactured by the company, Garnier Olia resistant non-ammonia hair dye is in great demand.
Features
Cream-paint Olia moisturizes the hair, makes their color rich and maximally improves the appearance. Due to the special formula, the coloring matter nourishes the hair structure from the inside, so that the chosen color does not wash off for a long time and is perfect for any type of hair. After coloring, the curls acquire a luxurious glow and shine.
The main advantage of the product is the absence of ammonia. The paint contains natural ingredients in the form of vegetable oils that help moisturize, intensively nourish and protect hair from harmful environmental factors.
In conventional paints, ammonia penetrates into the protective scales of the strands, so that the coloring matter easily enters the hair structure. However, along with the quick effect, such coloring negatively affects the hair, as a result of which they lose their strength and natural beauty, becoming dull and brittle. Often, after using such aggressive agents, the hair simply falls out. Most hair dye companies add some vegetable oil as an auxiliary ingredient, but this is not enough to fully protect against the chemical effect of ammonia.
Specialists of the company Garnier created the paint Olia, which does not contain ammonia, its role is assumed by the oil. It can be noted that this is the first tool created in this way. Not surprisingly, most reviews of this dyeing agent are mostly positive. Hair after applying Olia paint does not dry out and does not fall out.
The tool gently affects the curls and gently cares for them. Olive, sunflower or camellia oil is used as the main ingredient. Such natural components penetrate deep into the strands and deliver coloring particles there. As a result, the hair becomes a beautiful shade, gloss, silkiness, becoming obedient and well-groomed.
It is important to note that colored strands do not lose their color for 8–9 weeks, which indicates the high durability of this product.

To avoid the appearance of an undesirable reaction, it is necessary to test for allergies before using the product.

Usage tips
When dyeing is necessary adhere to a set of rules.
- The first thing to do is to test for an allergic reaction. To do this, put the mixture on the wrist and wait about 10-15 minutes. If, after a given period of time, the skin does not begin to redden or itch, then you can proceed to the staining procedure.
- The paint and the developer are mixed in any container, preferably glass or ceramic.
- Shoulders and neck should be covered with a towel to avoid contact with the coloring agent on the skin.
- Curls are divided into several parts, each of which is fixed by a barrette.
- Each strand must be carefully colored, starting from the occipital region and ending with the hair at the forehead.
- The paint should be evenly distributed on the head of hair, so that all the curls were carefully dyed.
- The tool must remain on the hair for the time indicated in the instructions to obtain the desired shade.
- Before washing off the paint, it is advisable to slightly massage the head.
- Finally, a caring balm is applied, after which the hair is washed again with warm water.
There are also several useful recommendations that will help to significantly simplify the staining procedure and make it more comfortable.
- Before dyeing, do not wash your hair, so that the coloring pigments better penetrate the hair structure.
- When choosing a new shade for the hair, it is important to determine what result should be obtained at the end of dyeing. If the selected tone is radically different from the natural hair color, you must first choose an intermediate version, after which you can proceed to dyeing in the desired shade. For example, a girl with a blond color prefers to make her hair brown, then first of all she will need to dye her hair into a brown-haired man, and then proceed to dyeing into a darker shade from the Garnier Olia assortment. Thus staining will occur in stages.
- When doubts are being tormented in which color it is better to dye the hair, preference should be given to the light tone of the palette.
- The mixture is not recommended to leave on the strands more than the allotted time according to the instructions.
- To make it easier to flush out any ink that comes in accidentally from the ears and neck, it is necessary to lubricate the skin with any greasy cream.
