    I did notice on their Facebook page that one person complained that the "dark blonde" colour made her hair almost black, which is a bit of a worry, but it may be a bit of a one off? Hope so!

    Just looked around for reviews online and I agree that it's not easy to find positive ones. Most reviews complain about the colour not matching the colour shown/described on the box and being much much darker than expected. Some reviewers also complained that their hair was left very dull and in poor condition after using this product.

    I really hope this isn't another Foam Party style disaster but can't help thinking it's a bit risky! It's worth bearing in mind that the L'Oreal "Colour Experts" will only look into complaints if you can provide before & after photos.

    ***Please proceed with caution!***

    Mine was blonde & it ended up very, very dark brown to almost black. I've contacted them & sent the before & after photo but they just said to use a deep cleansing shampoo, first on dry hair then wet ......

    Although the colour is actually quite nice if I'd wanted that colour hair.

    Is that supposed to help fade the colour quicker?! I'm confused about how that would help. And was your hair left dull or in worse condition after use?

    I hope they offered you some kind of financial compensation (although I know that's little consolation with a hair disaster.) The girl who recently posted on FB, about the same thing happening to her hair, apparently received some vouchers.

    Sounds like a nightmare. Hope you manage to get your hair back how you actually want it soon!

    I've just used my voucher in Superdrug, made some other purchases (non toiletries, if any of the No Buying Toiletries gang are reading) and was given a £3 off Superdrug own brand products voucher.

    I actually only spent £3.48. The £3 voucher is valid from Monday 28th March until Sunday 10th April. The Superdrug own brand products must total £3 or more, but there would appear to be no minimum spend.

    Result!

    I have just used my voucher in Superdrug and got the hair
    mousse worth £6.99 free, so a good find.
    Also when you read the receipt and go online to fill in a
    customer satisfaction survey they send you a code for 10%
    off known makes products and 25% off Superdrug products
    you put the code on your receipt and it is valid for 30 days
    in store
    I would think that will apply at all Superdrugs, but I had not
    noticed it until the till girl pointed it out today
    So every little helps as they say

    Just noticed the discount is for a £10 spend or more

    Yes, but I don't want a faded old hair do. It don't look too bad at all but I wanna be blonde again. I've just been to get my lightest blonde colour from Superdrug, maybe this will be light brown. Someone got vouchers? :eek: I think I'll email them again - thanks :D

    You get the £3 voucher if you spend £10, but that's only a £3.01 extra spend and they have some good deals on. I didn't even notice the £3 voucher offer initially, I was just happy to see the Sublime colour with a good choice available.
