Apply Excellence Crème whenever visible gray hairs begin to show, typically every 4–8 weeks, or before important events when your hair needs to look fresh and vibrant. Perfect for maintaining consistent color.

Pro Tip: Need to instantly cover your roots between coloring? Try L’Oréal Paris Magic Root Cover Up for quick touch-ups that last until your next shampoo.
HOW TO USE

Step 1: Divide hair into sections.

Step 2: Wearing gloves, mix the creme formula into the developer in the applicator bottle provided. Shake well until thoroughly blended.

Step 3: Apply the mixture to dry, unwashed hair, starting with the roots and use the comb tip applicator to evenly coat hair from root to tip.

Step 4: Leave the product on your hair for the recommended duration, about 30 minutes, following the instructions for your specific shade and needs.

Step 5: Rinse hair and apply the included Caring Shampoo to cleanse and after-color Nourishing Conditioner for softness and shine.
HOW TO CHOOSE YOUR COLOR

  • Choose a shade no more than two levels lighter or darker than your current hair color for a natural look.
  • For stubborn grays, select shades labeled as "natural" for optimal coverage.
  • Use the L’Oréal Paris Virtual Hair Color Try-On Tool to experiment with different shades and find one that works best with your complexion.
INGREDIENTS

Hyaluronic Acid
What it does: Hyaluronic Acid is a potent hydration-attracting molecule, naturally present in the body, with the power to retain significantly more than its weight in water.
Why it matters: Our Hyaluronic Acid-infused hair coloring system works to seal the hair cuticles down with 3X more moisture* for smoother, conditioned hair and long-lasting color (*versus untreated damaged hair).

I loved my natural hair color and never wanted to color it, but with age comes gray hair... No one knew I was getting grays, but I could spot every single one and they bugged me so much. Every time I'd part my hair differently, one would pop up and I would have to pull it out. That went on for years and I kept getting more. At a glance, it still looked like I had none, but pulling them out wasn't working for me anymore. I couldn't get them all! Then, I finally made the decision to color my hair :( I did a lot of research to find the best product that I could use at home and found this. I am so happy with the results! I searched for all my grays when I was finished and couldn't find a single one! The color is just like my natural color and my hair is so soft. I really should have used this sooner! But you have to read the instructions carefully! The tubes are numbered, but they don't match the order on the instructions. I'm glad I took the time to read everything. If L'oreal could change that, it would be perfect!

I was very disappointed in this product. My hair turned out much darker than box. I did not hate it. However, after the first time I washed it-the color faded a lot. It continued to fade each time I shampooed. I do not over wash my hair and I use color safe shampoo. I will not use again.

Covers gray hairs

4 days ago
I was really impressed with how well L’Oréal Paris Excellence Creme Triple Care Permanent Hair Color covered my grays! My hair looked nicely colored, and the gray coverage was excellent. However, the color did lighten my hair a little too much at the roots, leaving them slightly lighter than I would have liked. Overall, I was happy with the gray coverage and the results, but I would prefer a more even color from roots to ends. It’s a good option if gray coverage is your main priority, just be mindful that the roots may turn out lighter than expected.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Easy to use, great results

5 days ago
I'm extremely happy with the results from Excellence 6R Light Auburn Crème Permanent Triple Protection Hair Color! The color came out rich, vibrant, and true to the shade shown on the box. It gave my hair a beautitul warm auburn tone that looks natural while adding plenty of shine and dimension. What I loved most was how gentle the formula felt compared to other permanent hair colors I've used. The three-step protection system left my hair feeling soft, smooth, and healthy instead of dry or brittle. The application process was easy, and the cream formula didn't drip or make a mess.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Easy simple and hassle free permanent hair color

5 days ago
I really like how simple and easy this permanent hair color is to used. The preparation instruction is clear and easy to follow, making the entire process quick and hassle free. I experience no scalp irritation while waiting for the color to develop, and it left no residue on my scalp. Best of all, it provides complete coverage on my gray hair. The color comes out as shown on the box. The dying process is quick and mess free. Highly recommended.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Beautiful hair color set from L’Oreal

5 days ago
Super excited to try this hair color from L’Oreal! I received the medium brown and it’s the beautiful soft brown that really elevates my hair. My dry hair did not get drier from applying it, the conditioner packet helps nourish the hair without breakage. The application time was standard, after washing them my hair look wonderful! It was a great value comparing to going to salon, and I can see myself continue using it when my roots growing out.

Yes, I recommend this product.

I love this hair color kit! The color is absolutely perfect for my natural medium brown hair and covers gray roots so well. I love the easy to apply applicator and the color doesn’t dry my hair out and leaves it soft and not damaged after using. It’s super easy to rinse out in the shower and for under 15 bucks it last a good 6 weeks so I personally think it’s a great value considering to the salons! Highly recommend!

I loved my natural hair color and never wanted to color it, but with age comes gray hair... No one knew I was getting grays, but I could spot every single one and they bugged me so much. Every time I'd part my hair differently, one would pop up and I would have to pull it out. That went on for years and I kept getting more. At a glance, it still looked like I had none, but pulling them out wasn't working for me anymore. I couldn't get them all! Then, I finally made the decision to color my hair :( I did a lot of research to find the best product that I could use at home and found this. I am so happy with the results! I searched for all my grays when I was finished and couldn't find a single one! The color is just like my natural color and my hair is so soft. I really should have used this sooner! But you have to read the instructions carefully! The tubes are numbered, but they don't match the order on the instructions. I'm glad I took the time to read everything. If L'oreal could change that, it would be perfect!

I was very disappointed in this product. My hair turned out much darker than box. I did not hate it. However, after the first time I washed it-the color faded a lot. It continued to fade each time I shampooed. I do not over wash my hair and I use color safe shampoo. I will not use again.

Natural looking color

The product came not only with the traditional applicator it also came with an applicator that was like a comb that you could use to comb through to Target your gray hair. It was easy to use simply mix the color into the developer and give a little shake takes 30 minutes didn't drip came with shampoo and conditioner the product however did have a strong odor but it is hair dye so that is to be expected it covered my resistant grays left my hair soft and shiny the color is a natural brown black I was thinking it was going to be a dark black which is what I was looking for however I like this as well so I'm not disappointed I've been using this hair dye for years and the results are natural looking hair color

absolutely the best at home hair color ever.

The L’Oréal excellence cream permanent, triple protection, hair, color and dark brown 4 is the best hair color period. This is absolutely the best at home hair color ever. I’ve tried many and nothing compares to the excellent cream 100% grey coverage wow it covers every single gray hair perfectly and see seamlessly. The color is so rich, natural and radiant. It looks like I just walked out of high and salon triple protection system is amazing. You can really feel the difference my hair feels so protected and cared for before during and after coloring no damage just beautiful color, soft silk and shiny hair. My hair has never felt so soft and looked so shiny after coloring not dry at all after color conditioner smells amazing and leaves my hair feeling like silk, healthy, strong, and gorgeous so easy to use. The cream is non-drip so it’s so easy and mess free to apply. The instructions are super clear and everything you need is in the box if you want gorgeous long lasting natural looking color with perfect grey coverage that leaves your hair feeling amazing. The L’Oreal excellent cream is the one my holy grill highly highly recommend to everyone.

Hi there freshcreek, we completely understand how frustrating that is! When you specifically choose an ash shade to neutralize warmth, seeing unexpected red or warm tones is definitely a disappointment. We're so glad to hear the application was easy and your hair feels nice and conditioned, but we want to understand what happened as much as you do. It sounds like your natural hair color is not that dark, so this color should have been the perfect choice. If you would like to speak to us directly about your recent purchase, give us a call @ 800-631-7358 M-F 9 am-5:30 pm ET

      Hi Anjelica! Thank you for your interest in Excellence Creme,8RB-Medium Reddish Blonde. When applying this shade, it is important to note that the underlying tone of your hair can influence the final result. Since your hair is currently medium brown, the reddish undertones of the 8RB shade may become more pronounced, potentially resulting in an orange hue, particularly if your hair is porous or has not been dyed for an extended period.

      Hi YCS2026! Thank you for your interest in Excellence Creme. Gray hair is sometimes resistant to color. For best coverage, begin your application on the grayest areas and leave the product on your gray hair longer, up to 40 minutes as suggested in the instructions.. If you have tried the extended timing and still need better gray coverage, we suggest using one shade darker to compensate for the lack of pigment in your hair.

      Hi KRST! We are sorry to hear that #6-Light Brown is too dark for your hair type. We recommend shampooing frequently, with any regular shampoo to fade the color. In 4 - 6 weeks, when you have enough new growth, choose a lighter shade and follow the instructions for a root touch-up application. There will be no need to do a full head application, because the hair will have lightened if you have been shampooing frequently. So just the new growth will need the lighter shade, in order to blend with the hair that has lightened over time.

    What is the equivalent to the 7G medium golden brown? I usually mix half 7G with half 8G to color my naturally Auburn hair.

      Hi Lele, Thank for reaching out! Excellence Creme #7 Dark Blonde is the closet shade to #7G Dark Golden Blonde. It is the same level of color. We thank you for your interest in L'Oréal!

    Does the dye have a printed expiration date on the product? If so, where is it located?

      Hi there!
      In the US, expiration dates are only required on OTC products, if the shelf life is less than 3 years. The L'Oréal Paris hair color has a shelf-life of at least 3 years so there will be no expiration date on the box.
      If a product contains an expiration date, it is predicted that the product’s stability may not last 3 years and the product should be used by the date indicated on the package.

      Thank you for your interest in L'Oréal Paris products!
