It was a lazy evening after the election and I decided to buy a DIY color set and just this Sunday I used it. Let me show you the product first.
Php239.75 | SM Department Stores or Watsons
I chose Golden Blonde – their lightest color.
The packaging is complete with details such as precaution and allergy test.
I also like the photo illustration of the possible color result on your hair.
Inside you will find the following…
- Lolane Z-cool Color Cream C29 50 grams
- Lolane Cream Developer 9%
- Lolane Natural Hair Treatment for nourishing & hair care
- A pair of gloves
- A brush
- A plastic coloring cape
- A mixing tray
The instructions/directions are printed inside the box.
Let’s go to my coloring shall we?
My hair is originally like this…
Quick Hair Color History
- Color & Highlights (Chestnut Brown / Golden Yellow) – December 2011
- Richenna DIY Hair Color (Light Blonde) – December 2012
- Digital Perm – February 2013
I need to tell you my hair treatment story so you’ll have an idea about the final output because most probably we’ll definitely have a different result.
Let’s start!
I mixed the color cream and the color developer cream in the mixing tray included. I wore the cape and my sister wore the gloves.
After mixing the product, it will look like the photo above.
My sister did the application as I cannot see my back. She sectioned my hair into three.
And this is how my hair looks like after putting the mixture all over my hair.
After 45 minutes I rinsed it with water and re-applied the remaining mixture at the tips as I want the color to be concentrated there.
After 20 more minutes I rinsed it with shampoo and applied the leave-on included in the kit.
*The instruction says 30 minutes only*
Since my hair is ‘perm-ed’ I cannot use the blow dryer without diffuser, so I air dried it.

The Thumbs Up
- Affordable Prize
- Easy to follow instructions
- Complete Paraphernalia
- Smells nice compare to other coloring kit which you can smell how harsh the developer is
- Less Hair Fall
- The bubbles and water were color less when you rinse it – AMAZING!!
- Does not stain on skin, clothes, and scalp
- Vibrant result especially outdoor
The Thumbs Down
- Limited Color Selection
- For me the kit contains less product, I mean for longer and thicker hair, you’ll run out of mixture
Overall, I really like this kit compare to the foaming coloring kit in the market now. You’ll be able to apply the product precisely because of the brush and you don’t have to worry about the ‘color-after’ stains.
The result varies from hair to hair, since my hair had experienced several coloring and treatment from the past, the color/chemical easily adheres to my hair (and looks unhealthy). It’d actually mixed up with my fading hair color giving it a deep brown result. Though I did not achieve the color that I want I am happy with the compliments I received.
Will post indoor FOTD soon because I think my skin got lighter with my current hair color.
There you go gals (guys) I hope you will find this post more useful than my Richenna Post. LOL
AND PLEASE, condition and moisturize your hair regularly using products suitable for your hair situation. You don’t want to lose your crowning glory.

I’ve been looking for this one.. hindi ko makita.. meron akong nakita ung japanese color ang mhal eh 700+ then konti lang yung color na available .
Wow! The color payoff is really good ah! I’ve only tried bubble hair dyes since I’m afraid I won’t be able to apply evenly if it’s not bubbling. But I think I’ll have to check this out and let my sis help me with application. I recently used Etude’s Bubble Hair Color and the color wasn’t exactly how I imagined it to be, so I might recolor next week.
I’ve heard a lot about the Etude Bubble Hair Color but it is always out of stock maybe we are not meant to be. :))
Is it drying? I want to try this brand but Im afraid it might dry my hair
not really drying. My hair appeared shiny afterwards. I will monitor. :))
Akala ko gummy worms yung nasa photo, yung actual product na pala yun! Anyway, all summer I wanted to color my hair with the same color as this one, kaso, since the admin of my school (Catholic college school kasi) is strict with hair colors, I opted to just do a black cellophane.
I was in a Catholic school too in college and I was sporting a chestnut hair. hahaha
Wow awesome colour! Also love the colour of the two products themselves, very vibrant. It doesn’t contain bleach, though, does it?
no bleach indicated in the list of ingredients. 😀 it seems to herbal. 🙂
Wow! Love this already! Very affordable and the kit is complete already compared to other brands. By June, Lolane will be the brand that I will buy for my hair for my bi-annual hair coloring schedule =) Thanks, this is very helpul!
Tag me once you had your hair colored 🙂
wow your hair really did transform. but because i have a love hate relationship with my hair, i dont color it on my own 😛
Colorists can do it better 🙂
Wow, what a big difference! Cheaper pa than the Korean ones I buy. I’d like to try it too. 🙂
Keep me posted 🙂
What brand do you use? 🙂
Hello Eunice, Thank you! I always wanted to try Etude but it is always out of stock so I went to watsons instead 😀
