Garnier Olia Permanent Hair Color — 1.0 Black, Ammonia-Free Oil-Powered Formula for 100% Gray Coverage & Extra Shine (2 Count)

Garnier Olia 1.0 Black is an ammonia-free, oil-powered permanent hair dye that delivers rich black color, 100% gray coverage, and up to three times more shine than uncolored hair.

Olia uses a high-oil formula enriched with sunflower and camellia seed oils to infuse pigments deep into the hair shaft while minimizing the harshness associated with traditional ammonia dyes. The kit includes a developer applicator, colorant tube, after-color conditioner, gloves, and instructions, making it easy to color at home without sacrificing vibrant, long-lasting results.

How does Olia give bold color without ammonia?

The formula replaces ammonia with a blend of oils that open the hair cuticle gently and carry color molecules inward. This lowers strong odor and helps maintain hair’s natural moisture, resulting in vivid, even coverage.

• 60% oil blend (sunflower and camellia seed oils) propels pigments into hair
• ODS™ technology supports deep color penetration without harsh ammonia
• Non-drip creamy texture for controlled, even application

Will this shade cover gray hair completely?

Yes—Garnier Olia is formulated to provide 100% gray coverage for full head applications and touch-ups. The concentrated pigments and oil delivery system ensure consistent coverage from roots to ends.

• Designed to cover resistant gray strands fully
• Color stays vibrant for weeks with regular care
• Follow timing and instructions for best, uniform results

What results can I expect for hair texture and shine?

Beyond color, Olia improves visual hair condition: hair feels silkier and appears noticeably shinier. The hydrating oils leave hair smooth and glossy without weighing fine strands down.

• Up to 3x shinier than uncolored, unwashed hair
• Hydrating after-color conditioner helps seal in softness
• Leaves a subtle floral fragrance rather than harsh chemical smell

How simple is the at-home application?

The kit is built for straightforward mixing and application so you can color at home confidently. Directions guide you through mixing, applying to dry unwashed hair, timing, and rinsing for reliable, salon-like results.

• Shake developer and colorant together in applicator bottle
• Apply evenly; process for about 30 minutes then rinse until clear
• Use the included after-color conditioner to finish and boost shine

Who is this for: Garnier Olia 1.0 Black is ideal for people seeking permanent, salon-quality black color at home with an emphasis on gentler ingredients. It’s suitable for anyone who wants full gray coverage, improved hair shine and silkiness, and prefers cruelty-free, vegan formulas without ammonia, silicones, parabens, or phthalates. One to two boxes typically cover short to medium hair; two to three boxes work better for long hair. Pair with color-protecting shampoos and conditioners to extend vibrancy.
