[purchase/affiliate] I’ve wanted to try the Glaze Super Colour Conditioning Gloss since it came out but have a back log of hair products to test and try and have only just got around to using it. It’s short term – and short time – dye (so do all the usual checks and pre-tests) that you wear for ten minutes before rinsing away from dry hair.
Instructions for use have to be looked up because there aren’t any on the bottle which seems very strange to me. However, even after looking up the instructions for use, I still wasn’t sure how much to use – the whole bottle? half? less than that? It just wasn’t ever clear or an easily findable piece of knowledge. Eventually, I settled on about half the bottle – you’ll need to take the cap off entirely (I imagine this cap will be the first thing the brand changes when they get around to it) because the product is thick and no way is it willingly coming out of the relatively tiny nozzle without putting up a good fight. You leave it for ten minutes and then rinse away.
I can’t deny that it put an amazing shine on my hair – thank you Babassu oil for that – and that it felt incredibly soft, swishy and flexible. It gave a colour boost rather than a colour change, bringing out all the brown tones in my hair and leaving it looking refreshed and vibrant. However, I think that Glaze Super Colour Conditioning Gloss is the sort of treatment you’d do pre-special event without expectation that it will last you much longer than a couple of days. I’ve subsequently washed my hair and am not replicating that brilliant shine level which is billed to last up to ten washes. I think it really depends upon how the measurements for the claim are calculated but there isn’t much detail on that. I would genuinely recommend it for a special occasion or just if you feel like being swishy in the short term – it may last better on some hair types than others and it put a spring in my step because the initial shine is incredible. I loved the effect and would have liked it to last me forever, never mind up to ten washes :-). Glaze Super Colour Conditioning Gloss is on offer at Superdrug HERE for £8.65 instead of £12.99. There’s a clear glaze HERE (which I’ll try next) if you don’t want to mess with your existing colour but fancy a brief flirt with ultra shiny hair.

Oh your hair does have an amazing shine Jane! Think I’ll try the clear glaze, thanks for sharing
welcome!
I’ve had a bottle of the clear glaze gathering dust for a while – this has inspired me to use it today!
please let me know the result!
Not much difference for me I’m afraid. I’ve got blonde highlighted hair and used the clear glaze and the result was a bit ‘meh’ honestly.
Interesting … sorry it didn’t work well for you – it’s really hard to get a shine on blonde hair so that’s disappointing x
Randomly stumbled across this whilst reading the reviews. I’m the same as the OP, and have had great success in mixing pearl bone and beach blonde to give a gorgeous sandy neutral blonde which gave the shine promised.. nothing fancy just half and half of each, mix and for blondes if we *gasp* bleach, use your normal conditioner first, then this. Us blondes need a little extra help!
Hi! I have black hair. But, I also have blonde highlights that have grown out. It looks like i have Baliage. What should I use to make my hair all one color? Thanks!
I daren’t give colouring advice as it’s really not my area – although that baliage look sounds lovely!
Look at the Glaze website, they have just brought one out specifically designed to do this. Not available in the shops, just directly from Glaze, but it should be what you are looking for.
Brilliant, thank you 🙂
Hi there…the instructions are on the back of the bottle…you just peel off the top layer and they are hidden underneath xx
Thank you!
If it’s shine/gloss your after then look elsewhere, it does nothing for Blonde hair – but it does leave hair silky soft. Then again so does so many other products on the market, and can be bought much cheaper.
Blonde hair is really hard to get a shine on though – I haven’t used it for a while now … I feel convinced it gave me dandruff.
