Schwarzkopf Freshlight Hairdye Review: Vanilla Beige

Hi guys,

Happy Sunday!

Today's post is slightly different as I decided to try this DYI hair-dye from Schwarzkopf! Now, typically, I am always scared to dye my hair myself as it might turn out disastrous. However, after reading a few rave reviews about this Scwarzkopf Freshlight at home hair-dye, I decided to try it.

First of all, the packaging is very very cute! It has an anime-like character which is is adorable. The concept of this hair dye is actually interesting. Unlike the traditional hair-dye which you need to go through the hair one by one, this hair-dye dispenses foam which you then apply to your hair as if you are washing your hair. Thus, it will leave you an even application without the hassle (let the foam do the work for you). It is supposed to be very simple and convenient process which I am sure nobody is complaining.

Now, if you are interested in my thoughts, please keep reading <3

Schwarzkopf Freshlight Hair Dye Box

There are two bottles given, the first one is the color developer and the second one is the toner. You are supposed to mix the two together and shake it 5 times. The smell of the hair dye is not that strong, which is good :)

After you mix the two solutions, replace the cap with the pump

Here is the dispensed foam, you just need to apply it thoroughly to your entire hair. There is also an instruction paper inside, so all you have to do is just to follow that. 

Now, I recommend that you comb your hair and ensure that there is no tangle before you do this. I forgot to do it and it was really hard for me to apply this foam to my tangled hair without breaking it :( (my fault) Another thing is that, if you hair is any longer than mine, you might need to use 2 boxes.

 Other than that, application was really easy, it took me about 15 minutes to apply it to my entire hair and I just leave it for another 30 minutes before rinsing

Before: can you see my horrible roots? It has been around 5 months since I do my hair color :( Rescue i need

Another before pictures

After: Tadaa. My roots have definitely been fixed. The color is very even and I am impressed :)
It also has a reddish brown hues which I thought was very pretty

Another after look (1 week after the dye-ing process)

The verdict:

Price : 5/5

Application: 4/5

Scent: 3/5

Color: 4/5

Moisturising property: 3/5

Overall: 4/5

Overall, I really like this Schwarzkopf freshlight hair dye. I think it is very convenient, safe you time from sitting in salons for 3-4 hours. The color is beautiful and the application is even. The downside is that if you like to do more complicated color (with highlights or ombre, this hair dye won't do the job). 

Hope you enjoy this review.
