Full details

For individuals seeking a gentle way to refresh their hair color with a natural-looking, ultra-shiny satin blonde shade, L'Oréal Paris Casting Crème Gloss 801 provides an ammonia-free solution. This product is designed to deliver a luminous, healthy-looking finish with up to 3 times more shine. However, as a demi-permanent color, it will gradually fade and offers blending rather than full coverage for significant gray hair.

FAQs

How long does L'Oréal Paris Casting Crème Gloss 801 last?

This demi-permanent color typically lasts up to 28 shampoos. The fading rate can depend on your hair type, porosity, and how frequently you wash your hair.

Does this product cover gray hair?

Casting Crème Gloss is designed to blend away gray hairs rather than provide full, opaque coverage. It will make grays less noticeable by softening their appearance and blending them with your natural color, but it's not ideal for full gray coverage.

Can I use this if my hair has been previously colored?

Yes, you can use Casting Crème Gloss on previously colored hair. However, if your hair was recently bleached, permed, or chemically straightened, it's recommended to wait at least 15 days before applying this color. Always perform a strand test first to see how the color will take.

What if I have a sensitive scalp?

As an ammonia-free formula, it's generally gentler. However, it's crucial to perform the allergy patch test 48 hours before each application to check for any potential reaction, especially if you have a sensitive scalp or a history of allergies.

How often can I reapply the color?

You can reapply Casting Crème Gloss every 4-6 weeks, or as needed, once the previous color has significantly faded. It's a gentle enough formula for regular refreshes without causing excessive damage.

Troubleshooting

Color is not as vibrant or expected

Ensure you performed a strand test to determine the correct development time. Original hair color significantly impacts the final result; very dark hair may not achieve a light blonde without pre-lightening (which this product does not do). Ensure even saturation during application.

Uneven color result

This often occurs due to uneven product distribution. Make sure to section your hair thoroughly and apply the product consistently from root to tip, ensuring every strand is saturated. Start application on the areas that need the most color saturation.

Scalp irritation or itching

Always perform the 48-hour allergy patch test as instructed before full application. If irritation occurs during or after application, rinse immediately and discontinue use. Consult a doctor if symptoms persist.

Hair feels dry or damaged after coloring

Although Casting Crème Gloss is ammonia-free and nourishing, ensure you use the provided conditioner thoroughly after rinsing. If dryness persists, incorporate regular deep conditioning treatments into your hair care routine. Avoid over-processing by adhering strictly to the recommended development time.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Ammonia-free for a gentler coloring experience
  • Delivers significant shine and a natural-looking blonde finish
  • Nourishes hair during the coloring process
  • Easy to use for at-home application
  • No visible root line as color gradually fades

Cons

  • Not a permanent hair color, fades over time
  • Limited coverage for stubborn or prominent gray hairs
  • May require more frequent reapplication compared to permanent dyes
  • Final shade can vary depending on original hair color and porosity

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Before you begin, gather all necessary items: the hair color kit, an old towel to protect your clothing, a timer, and perhaps a comb for even distribution. Ensure your hair is dry and unwashed, as natural oils can help protect your scalp. Always perform an allergy patch test 48 hours in advance by applying a small amount of product behind your ear or on your inner elbow, and a strand test on a hidden section of hair to check the color outcome and timing.

Compatibility

This product is generally compatible with most adult hair types, including natural, color-treated (non-bleached), and permed hair (wait at least 2 weeks after perm/straightening). It is designed for adult use. It's especially well-suited for those looking for a temporary color refresh, enhancing their natural shade, or blending early grays.

Care Instructions

To prolong the vibrancy and shine of your new Satin Blonde color:

  • Gentle Washing: Use color-safe shampoos and conditioners. Avoid harsh sulfates which can strip color.
  • Cool Water Rinses: Rinse your hair with cooler water, as hot water can open the hair cuticle and accelerate color fading.
  • Limit Heat Styling: Excessive heat from styling tools can fade color. Use heat protectants when styling and opt for lower heat settings.
  • Deep Conditioning: Incorporate a weekly deep conditioning treatment to keep hair nourished and maintain shine.
  • Sun Protection: If spending prolonged time in the sun, consider using hair products with UV filters or wearing a hat to prevent color fade caused by UV exposure.
