Love the colour!
A L'OREAL Customer
I'm a natural red head and I just fancied a little pick me up for my hair. I read a few of the reviews before and was put off a little but I'm really pleased i gave it a go. It was really easy to use and I just needed the 1 bottle to cover evenly. It left my hair looking healthy, shiny and colour is wonderful. My only negative is the smell of the honey conditioner but once washed out all was good. I will definitely be using this again!
Way too dark
A L'OREAL Customer
They need to retake the photos for this dye. It's much darker than they advertise. And it stayed dark for weeks. My roots are now really obvious because of the massive contrast.
Not in stock
A L'OREAL Customer
This is so perfect for my hair, covers up all my greys whilst leaving my natural colour unchanged. But...it is now out of stock almost everywhere. There are browns, pale blondes, bright reds, but nothing that matches this. I've used this for about 12 years now, so please try and get it in more stores. The reviews show how popular it is!
Review for medium brown
Usually buy dark brown after years of using darker brown.Then decided to go a bit lighter as my natural hair is probably closer to medium brown and as am in mid fifties with greys only at front hairline thought this colour may be more flattering.Only dye the roots which had about an inch growth yet they still came out dark brown same as the rest of my hair.And also this hair dye does not wash out !I have long hair and the ends are still as dark as when I dyed them! I don't mind this as the smell is so much better than permanent dyes but if you're hoping it will wash out it may not be the case.This colour also has a red tinge in light which I hate so will go back to dark brown which also lasts better on the greys.
I used the medium...

I used the medium brown and it's way too dark. My hair looks almost black which makes me look Ill.
Much darker than the box image
A L'OREAL Customer
I've been looking for a colour match for my natural auburn hair colour to cover the greys and struggle to find a suitable red semi permanent dye. I'm naturally darker than the box shade indicated but based on the reviews of casting crème Amber 645 decided to try it. I agree with many others that it is actually far far darker than than the box suggests and initially I worried that it had turned my hair brown, as it was hard to see any red/ginger tones to begin with. They did come through after around 12 hours and proper drying and styling (not sure if that's because of my auburn base tone) and it's a good enough match for my natural dark auburn colour so I'm happy. But if you're looking for the copper colour shown on the box you'll be disappointed with this option and I'd go for something else. As for grey coverage I'd say it's fair, did a decent job but not blown away.
Beware dyes VERY dark!
A L'OREAL Customer
Having used and been very happy with L'oreal casting creme gloss over the past few years, I am extremely disappointed with how dark very dark this medium brown shade turned out to be. It is nearly black! It looks nothing like it does on the box. I have naturally medium brown hair with about 15% grey, primarily along partings. I dyed my hair this afternoon, in preparation for a New Year's even party tonight, and now look like Morticia from the Adamm's family! I am now rather embarrassed that friends will see me in this state this evening as I do not have time to try to dye it another shade. I shall not be buying or recommending casting creme gloss to anyone again.
Lovely honey blonde
A L'OREAL Customer
I have used this colour for quite a while and absolutely love it however I've noticed it's unavailable in certain stores now please don't discontinue as there is no other dye that matches this colour
Good Coverage but Follow the Instructions!
A L'OREAL Customer
Pampered myself with a long soak and a box of this after being poorly for over a week. My very light brown transformed into something closer to the shade '5102 Cool Mocha' I later realised you're supposed to dye on unwashed damp hair... Whoops! Still a beautiful colour which will tone down afer a few washes, after all, it's only temporary.
Does not work
A L'OREAL Customer
I tried it on my hair and my friend's hair, both blond, and after following all the instructions, our hair are still the same color as before.
