Review : Schwarzkopf Palette Deluxe Hair Colour

14 May 2019 12:31

I recently put the Schwartskopf Palette deluxe oil care color to the test, I used the shade "Smooth red violet" on my hair, and I was very nervous to put it over the mess that was my hair, because I hadn't dyed my hair in over 3 months (I was considering going back to my natural roots - but I'm a hair rehab failure.) I had serious root regrowth, as well as just generally uneven colour all over my head.

Knowing that there was a high possibility of a hair disaster - I went ahead and did it anyway. haha! I like to live dangerously.

Spoiler: It turned out even better than I could have hoped.

I was delightfully surprised at how even the coverage and colour turned out, there was no demarcation line, no hot roots, just beautiful and even colour!

I'm going to give you a quick summary of my favorite things about this hair dye, as well as some cons;

Pros:

Affordable (R99 at Clicks)
Easy to use, the formula is not too thick or too runny, it's a breeze to apply
decent range of colours
Colour is true to the colour on the box
Doesn't leave your hair feeling damaged after use

Cons:

Even though it's afforable, it's still almost double the price of Renew hair dye (R54.99 at Clicks)
It's gentle on hair, but not ammonia free
It has a chemical smell - but not worse than your average box of dye
The colour fades quite a bit with every wash (This is a red-hair problem)

I am so pleased with my current hair colour, I feel like I am living my best hair life right now! BUT, I know myself, and I know that next time I go to Clicks to pick up hair dye, I am most likely going to be tempted by the price of the Renew hair dye. I highly recommend the Schwarzkopf Palette Deluxe hair dye, however if you are on a very tight budget Renew is a great alternative!

I also have a Youtube video showing you how I colour my hair, so if you are interested please head over to my Youtube channel, and while you're there hit the subscribe button ♥ It means the world to me.

Hello there ! I have very long hair, I am a natural redhead but it now requires a considerable amount of assistance to keep it red ! However I was born a redhead and I will die a redhead ! I love the colour you have chosen : I bought the copper blonde yesterday before reading the very small fine print which warns against using it on frequently dyed hair. Was this a concern for you? Clearly it was successful and I am hoping that this will cover my grey roots and provide the same sort of gorgeous shine which yours has. Thank you !

@Sarah Clark Hi Sarah ☺

I didn't have any issue with this, and I dye my hair very frequently. I'm just not sure whether the copper blonde perhaps contains a higher percentage of peroxide than this red, if it does then you might get more damage. Good luck xx

@Adel Heine Hello there,
Yes I didn't think of that , it's possible. But I will use it anyway and let you know what I find. Thanks for the reply ! xx

@Adel Heine Hello there ! Thought I might update you on the Schwartzkopf : I used an entire box just to cover my roots. The colour was good, believable and it felt fine. As my hair is waist length it would not be economical for me to use so it's back to Renew, colour 8, Almond : the best ! My son's girlfriend has naturally dark brown shoulder length hair and dyes it all sorts of very adventurous colours, especially purple, her favourite. The last purple dye faded and she decided to use the very same colour you did, two boxes , and had the same excellent results covering the faded purple and her own natural dark brown perfectly.
I thought you might be interested in my own little observation : I rarely get the promised results from shampoos and conditioners and take the advertised boasts with a large pinch of salt. I struggle with breakage and tangles due to the length of my hair and Googled for a product to solve the problem. I saw Tresemme Platinum for strengthening and repairing damage and although R90-00 a bottle is out of my price range it is a 750ml. so will last at least 6 to 8 weeks. It claims to make a difference from the very first wash. It did ! My hair is like silk, it shines, the tangles are lessened, the breakage is also lessening and I love it ! I keep running my hands through my hair and I am truly impressed. After using it 4 times now I find myself longing to use it again and again , and the smell is very nice too. My fiance' had fun playing with my hair too! This one I will buy again ! Keep well , safe and warm and have a great day further ! Friendly regards, Sarah.

@Sarah Clark Hi Sarah! It's so nice to hear from you again, I really appreciate that you came back to update me :) The biggest down side to having long hair, is definitely how expensive the maintenance is. . . I'm a big Tresemme fan myself, and always on the hunt for a good shampoo and conditioner, thank you for sharing your experience with me!
I hope you have a lovely evening, and that you and your family stay safe and healthy as well xx

@Adel Hello there ! I will be using Renew 8 Almond - it's a great colour and covers perfectly. I am a redhead but although this colour is blonde it in fact tones in and creates the correct shade of auburn / copper which is my natural colour. Using the Tresemme Platinum range is really impressing me !
Have a wonderful weekend and be safe ! xx
