I was TERRIFIED to try this product. I have never colored my hair at home and have only had my hair professionally highlighted once. After reading that you have to keep the brush vertical I knew this was not a one person job. No way I would be able to do the back of my hair. My husband offered to help and I reluctantly accepted. Overall it was easy to use (as long as you have help). I left it in for about 30 minutes because I didn't want it to be to drastic of a change. I almost cried when I first saw it because one side was more highlighted then the other. However when I adjusted my part it looked better. I may have to do some touch ups closer to the roots if this new part doesn't cooperate. My 13 year old daughter liked it so It couldn't have been that bad. I decided to see how it looked if I curled my hair. It looked so much better (this is the pic I have shared). But it is so time consuming and not ideal for everyday. I need to see how it looks in a pony tail since this is how I wear it 75% of the time because I am a Zumba instructor. While this turned out better than I expected, I think I will leave my hair color alone. My natural brown is pretty and gets highlights during the summer.

I was given the opportunity to try the Loreal Glam Lights by SheSpeaks. I have colored my hair before at home, but not by myself. Someone else has done it for me. Also, it's been over 10 years since I've had my hair colored. I went ahead and did it myself this time. I actually liked the gloves that were provided. They didn't stick to my skin or bunch up in areas. The product itself didn't smell too bad during use. I wasn't really sure how much product to apply to the brush. There really wan't any info on this. I followed the directions as stated and applied light pressure at the roots and more pressure throughout and at the ends. I even reapplied color to my longer strands of hair that I felt didn't get enough. I parted my hair as usual (which I wish I hadn't) and applied the product to my roots starting at that part. I did lift my hair up so that I could apply product underneath (the instructions said to do so since I have a lot of hair). The only problem with this application is that if I were my hair up, which I do daily at work (I work with children), the right side of my head has no highlights, it's just my natural brown. I think if I had parted my hair in the middle the highlights would have been better distributed. As for the color it is totally brassy at my roots. I don't like it at all. I only left the product in for 25, maybe 30, minutes. The rest of my hair has golden highlights which I do like. I wore my hair in a braid and the braid itself looks great, but the top of my head makes me sad. I guess I still applied too much to the roots although it had the less amount of product and the least amount of pressure. I wouldn't recommend the product. Simple. No one has said they like my hair. My sons are the first with compliments and all I've gotten so far is stares and a crack of a smile when they see me notice. I was really hoping my hair would have turned out better. The picture of the girl on the box is amazing, but not realistic in my opinion.

I received glam lights as a sample to try for free. Tonight I tested it out. I'm sad to say I was not thrilled with the results. However, it was not necessarily the product. I followed the directions to a T and I still wound up with splotches. I am not the best at styling my hair so I can't decide if it was all on me or the brush they give you to brush it in with. It said to brush lightly near the roots and press down harder near the tips. I barely pressed down at the roots yet a lot of dye still came off. That is where the majority of my splotches are. I probably would not use this product again but mainly because I don't trust myself to do a better job. I don't want to chance it.

Shespeaks gave me an awesome opportunity to try and review a product by L'oreal Paris. I tried the L'oreal Paris Preference- Glam Lights for Medium to Dark Brown Hair. The mix was decently easy to mix but it still seemed 'chunky' after mixing. I had a bit of an 'oops' when opening the packet, but thankfully was right over the mixing bowl. My hair was WAY TOO LONG and WAY TOO THICK to try this. I needed probaby about 3 packets. I was able to brush the mixture through the top 1/3 of my hair. When it came to rinse, I felt it washed out fairly well. Upon drying I noticed it didn't get my roots so I look like I need a touch up, and I tried very hard to get close to my roots, also neighboring hair turned 'leopard like' getting splotches on them. This is definitely not as clean or neat as highlights via cap or foils for sure! The color wasn't much different from some of my own tones, it was a soft muted, light brown. I didn't see definitive highlights. I don't know that I would go this route for highlights in the future and I have already thought about finding an all over color that is closest to my color to 'reset' this experiment. I wanted to have a bit of a spring look, I am so depressed looking at 2 feet of snow and more on the way, but this wasn't my ray of sunshine. I would and will probably seek out the L'oreal Paris hair color line, there was no overly obnoxious smell and my hair felt good post coloring/bleaching. I wish I could recommend this and maybe it would work for thin, short hair people.

Ihave been wanting to get highlights in my hair for many years now, but never wanted to pay the salon prices. And I wasn't brave enough to try a home box color because I have an ombre style currently and was afraid I would mess it up, or I would ruin my hair. I was excited to try this product because it seemed it would be a perfect match with my ombre. I made sure my hair was not freshly clean, free of other product, brushed. When I did the test patch on the underside of my hair, I initially thought it was turning out nicely and proceeded to use it throughout my hair. As a person with thick wavy hair, the brush did pull, it did encounter many snags and snarls, it did get clogged with hair quickly. I also noticed that if a concentrated glob did not get dispersed, I was left with a blonde dot. That's what made me panic. I checked the test area again, and I was left with a blonde streak. Immediately I began washing it out, desperately trying to prevent golden blond dots and streaks in my hair. Once my hair was dry I realized that my hair wasn't badly affected. In fact, where I thought I had blonde streaks and dots, instead were lighter shades of brown, caramel, and red. While it truly was not what I wanted, it did not appear to ruin my original color. From this test I've learned that i am not comfortable using home dying kits, or at least the highlights. I also would highly recommend for this to work well with anyone's hair, instead of using the provided brush, I would use an actual salon style highlighting brush. That way the product gets more evenly distributed and it looks more salon quality.

Shespeaks gave me the opportunity to try L'oreal Paris Superior Perference - Glam Lights for medium to dark brown hair for free. I think its a fairly simple yet messy application. First when I mixed the ingredients, not all would mix properly. The bleach powder was difficult to get all the way mixed in. Oh when opening the packet, do not cut the whole line off, it will spill everywhere.After getting it mixed, then came the application. The brush was really weird to use. Your supposed to keep it vertical. Going behind the head was a little difficult for me: ask for help if you can. The brush I think is also best suited for shorter hair when doing it alone.The cr�me going on seemed to clump a little .I didn't leave it on for the full time either. My hair started to look blonde in spots, so I quickly rinsed. It didn't turn blonde. Thank goodness. Then I applied the shampoo and it smelled great.my hair felt great. So the results were a brassiness much lighter brown color. and a little blotchy.It almost looked like I did an all over color, except on my roots. Didn't expect that. So I will definitely have to pass on using the highlighting system again.My hair highlights naturally in the sun anyway. I guess if someone were there to help apply, then I would recommend it. Otherwise probably not.

I was so excited when I received my L-Oreal Paris Superior Preference Glam Lights medium brown to dark brown shade, just in time before spring, thanks to She speaks for giving me this opportunity to try this product and review it! Coloring hair at home definitely saves salon costs but requires knowledge of some basic coloring skills too. I have pretty long hair so next time I will divide my hair into 3 sections. It took a little practice to get used to the application process. The scary part for me was the little brush but I was static with that, after all that was all I had to use. The instructions on the box mentioned not to wash my hair before coloring, hence I was debating whether or not to wash my hair because my hair is wavy so instead of washing I just combed it out before I put on the highlights and I was wrong even though I combed it out it wasn't easy for me to apply the color. So if anyone has wavy or curly hair I suggest to straighten your hair one or two days before and use this product on your wash day. I think that would do a lot of difference on the way the comb will go through your hair. I started out a little heavy near my roots and had a difficult time reaching the back of my hair while still keeping the applicator brush vertical. This is the only reason for not giving it 5 stars! Otherwise, I love the color, glam, volume and shine it gave to my hair enhancing my overall appearance!!

Very easy to use and loving the results. The instructions were simple to understand, just remember not to use too much at the roots. I have super long hair and still had some left over so don't feel like you need to use it all. I loved how simple the comb was to brush in the hightlights but make sure your hair is not dry or damaged before using this product.

I was really surprised at how easy it was to use the brush and application. I ended up with nice highlights that were noticeable but also subtle. I enjoyed this product and would buy it in the future.

I really love how my hair turned out! The color is shiny an vibrantI The comb was easy to use and distributed color evenly to my hair . The instructions were straightforward and easy to follow!. I love the subtle highlights it left and I did not think I could achieve this look at home on my own! I will definitely be using it again! Thank you L-Oreal and SheSpeaks for giving me the opportunity to review this product! :)

Normally I go to a salon to have my hair professionally done but decided to try and highlight it myself. I was very happy with the results. This product added a nice color to my hair and surprisingly didnt dry out hair. I'm so happy with my new highlights. Would recommend to friends and family, its very easy to do.

The product is as described. Directions are easy to follow. The color did come out as described on the box. I would recommend this product to women who do color their hair at home. The color came out out very nice. You can definitely see the highlights.

Best at home highlights I've ever used! Not crazy about the comb since my hair is very long so used a cap. Wow! Gorgeous color results of caramel on my light to med brown hair!

I have not colored or highlighted my hair in a long time, but I was very excited (and a little nervous) to try out the Superior Preference Glam Lights GL50 by Loreal. The applicator made applying the highlights so easy and I did not have to worry about chunky application. The product went on smoothly and did not drip. The strong smell and the somewhat difficult to read instructions (colors seemed to blend together on paper, making it harder to see step by step directions) were the only drawbacks to the product. The highlights are very subtle, but add a lot of shine and dimension to my otherwise bland (and darker than I like to admit) hair color. I love that the highlights look natural, not streaked or patchy. I would definitely recommend Glam Lights to anyone looking to add some color and shine to their hair.

I received the new L'Oreal Glam Lights for medium to dark hair in the mail from SheSpeaks. I was really excited to test this product on my dark hair, but was also anxious not knowing how it would turn out or if it would be damaging. Due to this uncertainty, I decided to apply conservatively and left it on for the minimum time, 25 minutes. I thought the comb that was provided was pretty easy to use and directions were very clear. I am happy with the way the Glam Lights turned out, as they were subtle and natural looking, which is what I wanted.
