L'Oreal Paris Excellence Crème Permanent Hair Dye - 8G Medium Golden Blonde, Triple Care with Hyaluronic Acid, 100% Gray Coverage

L'Oreal Paris Excellence Crème 8G Medium Golden Blonde is a permanent hair-color kit that delivers 100% gray coverage while helping protect and hydrate hair thanks to a Triple Care routine infused with hyaluronic acid.

This complete at-home color system combines a protective coloring crème, a caring shampoo and a deep conditioner formulated with hyaluronic acid to help maintain moisture and color longevity. The kit’s non-drip crème is designed to color evenly, cover stubborn grays and leave hair feeling softer after the service. Packaging and shade presentation may vary; full application steps are printed inside the box.

How does this kit protect hair while coloring?

The Excellence Crème system uses a Protective Coloring Cream that works with hyaluronic-acid–infused post-care to reduce dryness from the coloring process. Rather than just depositing dye, the routine includes cleansers and a deep conditioner to help seal cuticles and boost moisture retention after processing. This approach aims to reduce the common dulling and brittleness that can follow a permanent color service.

• Protective Coloring Cream minimizes cuticle damage during coloring.
• Caring Shampoo gently removes residue while infusing moisture.
• Deep Conditioner seals cuticles with enhanced hydration.
• Hyaluronic acid targets moisture at the fiber level for smoother feel.

Will it cover 100% of gray hair and which shades are available?

Yes — the formula is specifically developed to provide full gray coverage, including resistant or stubborn grays. The line includes 27 shades that span natural to warm and cool tones, allowing you to match or update your current color. Shade 8G is a medium golden blonde that adds warm, sunlit dimension.

• Formulated to cover all grays, even stubborn strands.
• 27-shade range to suit different base colors and preferences.
• 8G Medium Golden Blonde provides warm, natural-looking highlights.
• Non-drip crème eases application for roots and full-head color.

How do I use the kit safely at home?

Follow the step-by-step instructions printed inside the box, which include mixing, application timing and rinsing guidance tailored by shade. Always perform the enclosed patch test before full application to check for sensitivity. Use the caring shampoo and deep conditioner after rinsing the color to help lock in pigment and moisture.

• Perform the patch test 48 hours before coloring.
• Mix the protective coloring cream and developer as instructed.
• Apply evenly, process for the recommended time for your shade.
• Rinse, then use the hyaluronic-acid shampoo and deep conditioner included.

How long will the color last and what maintenance helps extend results?

As a permanent dye, Excellence Crème deposits long-lasting pigment that grows out rather than fades uniformly. To maintain vibrancy, use color-safe products, avoid excessive heat styling and limit harsh sun exposure. The included caring shampoo and deep conditioner help preserve color by maintaining hair moisture and minimizing cuticle lift.

• Permanent results that grow out over time; root touch-ups may be needed.
• Use color-protecting shampoos and conditioners between services.
• Limit frequent bleaching or overlapping chemical services.
• Protect hair from sun and chlorinated water to reduce fading.

Who is this for: L'Oreal Paris Excellence Crème 8G Medium Golden Blonde is intended for people seeking full gray coverage with a warm golden blonde result who prefer an at-home permanent color that includes integrated care. It suits all hair types and textures and is especially useful for anyone prioritizing hydration and a smoother finish after coloring. If you have known sensitivities, follow the included patch test and consult a professional if you’re unsure about overlapping with previous chemical services.
