Not Good for Gray Hair

by shandralynn (9 reviews)
I am African American and used loving care. I am semi-gray and not yet ready for permanent color. Used the product and after the first washing turned my gray hair green. Bright green. I was mortified. I have most of my gray in the front and it was not pretty. I had to buy the shampoo for gray hair to get it to wash out.10/25/2007

      made me orange

      by kathylk (104 reviews)
      I have gone a bit gray, and wanted just to cover the gray...but my hair got continually lighter and brighter, and eventually the brown was more orange. I'm going to use a salon for awhile, until I want to try it on my own again. March 14, 2008, 2:48 pm

      I have tried most of the clairol hair colors and found they worked fine on my grey hairs-this doesnt-even if I leave it on the maximum time. June 27, 2008, 1:36 pm

      Not that great

      by mewchica (18 reviews)
      Honestly, I didn't see much of a difference after using this product. I tried a reddish tint, and even in the light, I couldn't tell a difference. Perhaps this is because this is a very temporary hair color, but I guess it's good if you can't commit to your hair color and want a weak color. February 24, 2008, 8:45 pm

      but have used it a few times to "darken' and it's ok. Nothing exciting. I don't have grey hair. December 5, 2007, 12:04 am

September 29, 2008, 8:09 am I do have to say i used the auburn over a level 7 dark blonde and i got lovely natural looking red auburn tones. When i was i assume this will turn orange (the nature of fading). I do not have gray so i cant vouch for it's coverage on that end of things but temporary to semiperm haircolor has a history of weak coverage on gray. You need to permeate the hairshaft for coverage. Science says it wont work unfort. clairol tries to say it will...good product will a dishonest claim is all i can say. September 29, 2008, 8:09 am
