    I use boots own, it's been on offer recently. I love the plum in loreal casting but's its semi permanent, so it washes out fairly quickly. I've also used nice n easy but they don't do the plummy or burgundy colours that I like
    I get paid to smell great :j

    I usually use the good name brands, but the other month I was in Wilkingsons, and they had thier own brand, plus it was buy 2 for a fiver, so I thought I would give it a go, it turned out to be one of the best home dyes I have ever used.:D
  • I used to get my har coloured at the salon for year but for the last 3 or so year I have been colouring at home. It saves me lots of money as I had to go every 8 weeks or so to cover the regrowth.

    Now, I always use Loreal Excellence, comes out quite nicely. I never change colours though as I'm scared it turns out badly.

    I wouldn't do high or low-lights at home though. I think with highlights you can usually tell if it's been done professionally or not, but you can't go to wrong with just a simple colour.
