Product details

L'Oreal Paris Casting Creme Gloss in 316 Burgundy comes as an 87.5g plus 72ml pack for colouring at home. It suits dark Indian hair wanting a deep wine tone with shine, and like all hair colours it needs a 48-hour patch test before use.

This listing is for Casting Creme Gloss in shade 316 Burgundy, packaged as 87.5g plus 72ml. In practical terms, that usually means a colour cream portion and a developer portion to mix together, but check the listing images to confirm what each quantity refers to and what else is in the box.

316 Burgundy is among the more popular red-toned shades in the range for Indian buyers. On natural black hair, it typically appears as a dark base with a wine-red sheen when light hits it. On greys, the colour may look noticeably brighter, which can create a natural highlighted effect around the face.

Burgundy is a forgiving choice for those trying colour for the first time, because it does not require lightening to look different and it grows out gently against dark roots. It also pairs well with festive wear, which is why many people colour before Diwali, Karva Chauth or wedding events.

Red pigments are prone to fading, especially with hot showers, chlorinated pool water and strong sun. To keep 316 Burgundy vivid for longer, wash with lukewarm or cool water, use a colour-safe shampoo and avoid washing for the first two days after colouring.

Compared with professional burgundy tubes, a Casting kit is simpler: no ratio calculations or separate developer purchase, just mix and apply as per the instructions. Compared with herbal burgundies, it typically gives a more even and predictable tone, especially on mixed grey and black hair.

Timing matters with red-based shades. Leaving the mixture on for less than the recommended time can produce a patchy result, especially on greys, while leaving it on far longer does not give a brighter burgundy and only adds stress to the hair. Set a timer once the full head is covered and rinse promptly. If the result looks too dark at first, it typically softens slightly after a few washes.

Before you buy, check expiry and seller details, and consider buying two packs if your hair is long or very thick. Always perform a 48-hour patch test and a strand test. Keep colour away from eyes, and stop immediately if your scalp reacts. It was listed around ₹729 at the time of writing.
