REVIEW: Garnier Belle Colour 51 Medium Brown

London Drugs was having a sale on these for $3.99
so i decided to pick up a Garnier Belle Color in #50 Medium Brown


my roots and faded red has been bothering me a lot lately :/
and i didn't feel like fixing the roots or going lighter
and i didn't want to dye my hair black (lol not doing that again >_>;)
so i settled with this colour


i really like this brand/line for their dark browns,
they are unbelievably consistent and dark.
however this one was a meh for me.
unlike the previous brown dyes it didn't cover the odd red/orange tint in my hair
which was kinda what i was hoping to do -  -;
i guess from afar you could say it has a slight ash tone to it.. but if you carefully look
there are red bits / strands that stand out

i probably will not purchase this particular colour again,
just because i don't like the end colour and the uneven coverage.
if you're looking for a dark colour that goes even and gives a more ashy tone,
this is NOT for you.. try the #51

Review: Garnier Belle Color 51 Medium Ash Brown

My roots were growing out and the reddish colour I dyed my hair last time was fading.
so i was contemplating whether to go lighter or darker...
in the end i decided to go darker just because i don't want to look too out there.

I usually choose drugstore brands when i want to go darker,
and then i would choose japanese brands if i want to go lighter and have evenly dyed hair.
i probably will not dye my hair again for another 3-4 months.
okay i really hate the smell of this hair dye in particular,
but their darker tones are really good and last a while.


i didn't leave it as long as i usually would,
which would be 40min - 50min.
cause of the time crunch and i get really bored waiting LOL.
impatience is a flaw.
it covered pretty well, my roots blend in with the dyed part pretty well.
when i finished dying it, i thought it looked a lot darker than i expected,
this morning when i looked at it again, i think it looks fine,
a dark ash brown colour.
overall this is a pretty good hair dye and comes out quite even.
