What is the difference between L’Oreal Preference and L’Oreal Excellence haircolor?
Preference and Excellence are both permanent hair colors. Excellence is a crème color that provides 100% gray coverage. Preference is a liquid gel color that provides fade-defying, luminous color for up to 8 weeks. For multi-dimensional, salon-inspired results, we recommend using Preference. To cover resistant grays, we recommend using Excellence.

Which L’Oreal Excellence shade should I choose?
There is a shade guide included on the side of each pack to show the color results depending on your starting hair color. Color result may vary depending on your starting hair color and condition.

    Great choice for many people wanting an affordable

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Excellence hair color kits are one of the most popular at-home permanent hair dyes, frequently praised for their gray coverage, ease of use, and color results. I find them to offer close-to-salon results without spending a lot of money. My hair is blonde to begin with and grey at the roots. This color kit darkened my roots perfectly.

    Really liked the outcome!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really liked the outcome. The color is nice and shiny. I didn’t like the smell, it was a bit stronger than my regular hair color. The color is vibrant and healthy looking! I may overlook the smell if the color stays as healthy looking.

    Easy to apply with a thicker, non-drippy formula a

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried the L’Oréal Medium Brown permanent hair color, and overall I had mixed results. For context, I am nearly 100% gray, so coverage is very important to me. Application was easy and straightforward. One thing I really liked was the consistency of the color. The liquid was noticeably thicker than other brands I’ve used, which made it much easier to apply and control. It didn’t drip or run nearly as much, which I appreciated. I also liked that the kit included a shampoo for after coloring, and the conditioner was generous enough to last for several uses in the days that followed. That was a nice touch and felt more premium than some other box dyes. Because my grays are very stubborn, I did leave the color on longer than the instructions recommended. While the color did a decent job covering most of my gray, I noticed that many of the finer gray hairs around my hairline did not take the color well. I’ve included before and after photos to show this clearly. Ultimately, while this formula had some nice features, it didn’t deliver the level of gray coverage I need. I’ve been using another brand for years that performs better on my hair, and unfortunately this one just doesn’t stack up for me.

    Minimal grey coverage

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Unfortunately, this burned my scalp and did not give me full grey coverage like it says. Now I remember why I don’t do box colour. This is honestly disappointing.

    Perfect Hair Color at Home Every Time

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Excellence Creme Permanent Triple Care Color in Light Brown is my favorite at home hair color. It is easy to apply and I get the same results every time. The shampoo and conditioner included leaves my hair soft and hydrated. It covers my gray and matches my natural color perfectly.

    Great coverage

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am super impressed on how well this covered my grays. The shampoo and conditioner that comes with this is honestly amazing and smells great. It was super easy to apply, I prefer a brush it on rather than using the bottle but it still applies the same. The shampoo did really well getting the color out which made rinsing super easy.

    Easy to use

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Used this on my roots because the red I dye it usually makes my roots hot trying to cover up the grey. This blended so well and was so easy to use. Left my hair shiny and beautiful.

    100 percent gray covered

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The pictures show my hair lighter in the before photo. However, the dye did a great job covering my gray hair. It also made my hair feel softer. I had used a leave in conditioner in my hair and thats why it looked dry. But it really wasn't. I anticipate not having to dye my hair for 6 to 8 weeks. I left it in for 25 minutes and then washed it out with the shampoo and conditioner that came in the box.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This hair color was one of the easiest I’ve ever used. Great directions easy to rinse out without leaving any residue behind and left a great color and shine on my hair once it was dried. Very happy with it.!

    Hair feels great after!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried the Excellence Creme Permanent Triple Protection Hair Color in 7 Dark Blonde, and overall I’m really happy with the results. While it didn’t turn my hair fully dark blonde, it did an impressive job neutralizing and fighting the leftover red tones I had from previous color. That alone made a noticeable difference and left my color looking more balanced and natural. What really stood out to me was how healthy my hair felt after coloring. There was no dryness or damage at all—if anything, my hair feels soft, smooth, and conditioned. The formula was easy to apply, didn’t have an overwhelming smell, and felt gentle throughout the process. If you’re dealing with stubborn warm or red tones and want a hair color that doesn’t compromise hair health, this is a great option. I’d definitely use it again.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my favorite color. The Medium Ash Blonde shade gives beautiful, natural results every time, and I love the shine it delivers. My hair always looks glossy and healthy. The formula is easy to use and feels gentle, and I’ll definitely use it again. Highly recommend.

    Sorry Loreal, I need my grays colored!!

    I've been using 8RB for many years and have loved it. Then I started having gray hair appear. I'm on my 3rd box with the same result....this product does not touch my gray hair. At all. How can they guarantee 100% gray coverage when that is obviously a lie? I'm looking for a new brand now.

    Made a big difference

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] L'Oreal permanent hair color made a big difference in covering my gray. Easy instructions to follow in applying the color. While mixing the ingredients, there was no strong smell and didn't stain my skin. After conditioning, my hair was soft and manageable.

    Pretty good

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Was boxed like every other color I've seen. Application was just like every other ones I've seen. Development was like box said 30 minutes. I like that it didn't stain my face. It rinsed out pretty easy. I love the fact that box came with shampoo and conditioner. Conditioner made my hair super soft. It covered most of my greys but I have a bunch of baby greys that it didn't. Very short and it could have been user error too. Good experience overall.
