Does anyone know a colour match for this shade? I love it, but it doesn't cover my greys sufficiently :( It's hard to find a warm mid brown, they seem to be either too dark, or too ashy. I've checked the other L'oreal brands and they don't have anything in the same shade. The number is 634 if that means anything!

Nice n Easy- Light Caramel Brown. Permanent shades always seem to come out darker so it's best to start a tad lighter. Caramel will give you a mid toned warm brown and should cover the grey.

Loreal preference Virginia is another option if you want a deeper brown.

Thankyou, they both look nice. Do you know if you apply to wet or dry hair with those? I can never seem to get the colour even if you have to start with dry hair Confused

Dry hair. It could be patchy because you need two packets if you have long/thick hair. Thereafter you can use just the one to touch up the roots.

HTH.

I have a similar problem as my hair looks like it should be a really dark brown but is actually full of light brown red type shades. All the posh colours look wrong but I found schwarzkopf in Morrisons for £2 a box and the light brown is amazing.(Despite most of their range being useless IMO)

This is fun to do!

Is it the Palette Intensive Color Crème? It sounds like it could be the one, I'll have to check out Morrisons.
