John Freda Precision Foam Colour


After reading other bloggers reviews and listening to the hype over the new John Freda hairdyes I decided to convince my mum she needed to try one out for herself. A few fancy words later and my mum was sold and rushed out to pick one up, these are currently on offer for £5.99, originally £9.99 and as she reguarly dyes her hair at home I asked her to let me know what she thought.

PRO'S:
  • Comes in a nice range of colours
  • Easy to mix up
  • Covered all of her 'stubborn grey hair'
  • Left her hair feeling shiny
  • Even colour
  • No dripping or mess
  • Easy application
  • Comes with a decent sized tube of conditioner, clear instructions and thick gloves
CON'S
  • Price - It's originally £10 for a box which is slightly more expensive than most box dyes
  • The colour turned out more brown with a red tinge in the light rather than the red indicated on the box
Overall she was very happy with the result, foam hairdye is a great idea as it eliminates the majority of issues associated with messy home dyes. Application was incredibly easy and even if you just slap it on and rub it in, the foam expands ensuring every bit of hair is covered and the conditioner provided acts as a weekly revitalising treatment to nourish your locks.
I've already seem an advertisement on t.v for another well known brand advertising their own version of a foam hairdye so I have no doubt there will be cheaper alternatives and a wider range of colours becoming available from other brands in the near future.

  3. I soooo want to try this but I'm so reluctant to surrender my hair to box-dye again. It never seems to take well on my hair because it's SO thick! It seems to only way I can get a decent, all over colour is to go to the hairdressers. Sigh...

  5. @Marisa - I hope you get on with it as well as we did :) it's pretty fun to use aswell! x

    @Jess - It is really good, worth a try especially as it's on offer at the moment x

    @Vicky - Oh that's a shame, I have a horrible phobia of hairdressers after a terrible experiance a few years ago so I rely on home dyes and giving myself a little trim every now and then lol x

    @Gaby - It's a pretty cool product :) x

    @Chloe - Yup! I didn't expect much but it works really well. x
