L'Oreal Paris Excellence Creme

Permanent Color, Full Coverage

Excellence Creme is L'Oreal's permanent hair color. It contains ammonia and hydrogen peroxide — that combination opens the hair shaft and deposits pigment that doesn't wash out. The result: permanent color change that grows out at the root, not a fade. Excellence is the right choice if you're covering grey hair, going darker than your natural shade, or making a significant color change (dark brown to medium brown, natural to black, etc.). Going by the Excellence formula's 40-year track record globally, it covers 100% grey in a single application — which is the main reason most Pakistani women over 35 default to it over semi-permanent options.

The conditioning agents in Excellence Creme (Ceramide and Pro-Keratin in the more recent formulations) don't fully offset the chemical process damage. Your hair will feel drier in the 10–14 days after coloring. I'd use a protein-rich conditioner immediately after and avoid heat tools for at least a week. And don't apply to hair you've recently bleached without a strand test — the combination of previous chemical processing with fresh ammonia color can lead to breakage, especially on Pakistan's hard water-stripped hair. Results vary on virgin versus previously-colored hair. On uncolored black hair, the darker Excellence shades (Natural Black, Dark Brown) deposit cleanly. Lighter shades need more processing time on black Pakistani hair than the box instructions suggest — add 5–10 minutes.

L'Oreal Paris Casting Creme Gloss

Ammonia-Free Gloss and Tone

Casting Creme Gloss is ammonia-free — it doesn't open the hair shaft the way Excellence does. That means it can't lighten your natural color; it can only add tone, gloss, and deepen an existing shade. The formula deposits temporary pigment on the outside of the hair shaft rather than inside, which is why it fades gradually over 28 washes rather than growing out sharply at the root. Worth prioritising over Excellence if your goal is tonal enhancement (adding depth to natural black, going from dark brown to chocolate brown), if you have colour-treated or processed hair that won't handle more ammonia, or if you're testing a shade before committing to a permanent change.

Casting Creme Gloss gives hair a noticeably glossy finish that Excellence doesn't match — the name is accurate. In my experience with the product in humid conditions, the gloss effect holds for 3–4 weeks before the first wash, then diminishes gradually. It's not a treatment product, it's a colour product, but the visual effect on dull, hard-water-affected Lahore or Islamabad hair can look like a glossing treatment. That's the main reason younger Pakistani women with healthy uncolored hair pick Casting over Excellence: they want the shine and subtle tonal shift without the permanent commitment or the drying effect of ammonia. And at the same price of Rs. 2,861, you don't pay a premium for going ammonia-free.

Which One to Buy

Grey coverage or significant color change: buy Excellence Creme. Tonal enhancement, gloss, or colour-treated hair that needs a gentler option: buy Casting Creme Gloss. If you're new to at-home hair color and your hair is natural and uncolored, Casting Creme Gloss is the lower-risk entry point — ammonia-free means less chance of unpleasant surprises, and the fade is forgiving if the shade isn't what you expected. But don't use Casting if covering grey is the primary goal; it won't provide the same coverage depth as Excellence on white or silver strands. Both products include developer, gloves, and a post-color conditioning treatment in the box — you don't need to buy anything extra to apply at home.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the price of L'Oreal hair color in Pakistan?

A: L'Oreal Paris Excellence Creme and Casting Creme Gloss are both Rs. 2,861 on Highfy.pk. Full nationwide delivery available. The shade range available on Highfy is wider than what's typically stocked at local retailers — both products come in multiple shades from natural black to various brown tones.

Q: What is the difference between L'Oreal Excellence and Casting?

A: Excellence Creme is permanent with ammonia — opens the hair shaft, deposits lasting pigment, provides full grey coverage. Results grow out at the root. Casting Creme Gloss is ammonia-free and semi-permanent — fades over 28 washes, adds gloss and tone, won't cover grey as thoroughly. Same price at Rs. 2,861. The choice depends on whether you need permanent coverage or tonal enhancement.

Q: Can I use L'Oreal hair color at home in Pakistan?

A: Yes — both products are designed for at-home application. Developer, gloves, and a conditioning treatment are included in the box. Strand test first if your hair has been previously bleached or heavily treated. For Excellence Creme on natural black Pakistani hair, dark shades take well from the first application; lighter shades may need extra processing time. Casting Creme Gloss is the more beginner-friendly option if you haven't coloured at home before.
