BREAKING NEWS: The hottest hair color trend of the season is Illuminata. See the technique and photos HERE!
In this era of instant gratification, we want Twitter-speed results. This surely, applies to your hair color, right?
It seems that L’Oreal Paris heard your cry and answered in the form of its latest hair-coloring offering: the new Sublime Mousse, which is no ordinary mousse or foam, but a truly sublime one.
(Dictionary definition of sublime for the classic nerd is: : “to elevate or exalt especially in dignity or honor”).
So, in other words, consider your hair coloring experience elevated. Knocked up a notch. The Sublime Mousse Healthy Look Haircolor is a lighter-than-ether airy mousse that is mess free and easy to apply as shampoo. Gray hairs are instantly covered.
How do you use it? You rotate the pump bottle to mix the formula,and dispense the foam into your hand and massage it into the hair like shampoo. There are 12 shades of permanent hair color in this collection, each as unique as you. At a recent event, we saw the model’s shiny, glossy locks and were impressed. This is truly one knockout mousse!
This retails at the beginning of March 2011 for $9.99 at mass retail and drugstores everywhere.

Posted at 00:18h, 23 MayOkay. I really liked the product. People who don’t like it, probably picked the wrong haircolor. Its not the products fault, its your fault. I don’t have gray hair since i am young but i just wanted a change in my color. My hair is a pretty dark reddish brown and really shiny. I wanted to go darker so i got number 30. it made my hair almost black, but i am happy with that. It still keeps your natural highlights (in the sun or bright light), which mine are a reddish color. However, i read the color washes out kind of fast? I am not so sure of that since i only dyed my hair for the first time about a week ago. It still looks as dark as it did. Overall, i like it. If you have dark hair and want to go really light, you probably have to gradually get there without the color looking bad so once again, its not the product’s fault, its your fault

Posted at 14:49h, 23 MayLoreal Sublime Mousse is the worst product on the market. This product does not cover grays and leaves your hair in terrible condition including severe dryness, breakage and worrysome hair loss. Loreal will refund your money and tell you if you have gray hair, not to use the Sublime Mousse product.

Posted at 19:36h, 24 MayI purchased the Golden Medium Blond #83 and I got DARK BROWN AUBURN. I am so disappointed. To top it off my grays are shining through like little tinsel! I am afraid to try and color again, I am going to have to wait a few days because my hair is so dry and dull.
I actually called and complained to L’Oreal, something I have never done. This is also my first time to comment online about a product. I generally trust L’Oreal, unfortunately, this one falls way short! I feel this product was not properly tested for quality. I would not recommend this hair color to anyone based on personal experience. I wish I had looked online before trying this one!

Posted at 04:09h, 29 Mayi bought the iced dk brown color (dark natural brown). it is a permanant version of the loreal gloss in theiced shade.
It covers my greys, is a lovely neutral shade of brown, chocolate, shiny, ..very easy to use, no drip. has been on 5 weeks and no fading!
I have a new stylist and was talking to her about highlights (my idea) her response: why would you want to do that? your hair is a gorgeous shade of chocolate brown..she asked me what i used. couldn’t beleive i did it myself..said if word got out she’d lose her coloring business..
i have wavy hair, has been color treated for many years. Recently thought at suggestion of new stylist, I have been using sulfate free shampoos and only washing every 3 days ..sounds gross but my hair looks great and my color lasts and lasts…hair is healthy too.
