I have thick strong hair but this product does not cover my grey roots why? I follow the instructions but the greys will not cover

It did not cover your roots because it is not a good product for covering roots. This is basically what I said in my review of the product. It is not good for stubborn gray. You need to find something else. A tip - if you have tough grays to cover, you can leave the die on them for up to 45 minutes. The longer you leave the die on, the better. Just try not to exceed 45 minutes.

I also have thick strong hair and grey roots, when I apply the foam I make parts in my hair to make sure the color can penetrate the roots. Hopefully this will help you too. Good luck.

Yes, you can but you may not want to. If you apply to a small area, be sure to use a comb or brush to blend in to the surrounding area or else it would look like a patch of dark surrounded by lighter color hair. I assume that you are trying to cover the roots that are much lighter. If you want to go that route, Clairol produce a hair dye called (if I remember correctly) Root Rescue for ladies which comes with a brush applicator. My wife uses it and it seems to work ok. Still, getting the right shade to blend is tricky and requires a bit of trial and error. Good luck.

You need to use 10% developer, and you are going to be very happy with the result. Trust me, I have a lot of stubborn gray hair, and I am using 10 . It covered all the gray in my roots.

Tim,I just sent you an answer that I thought you might need, but I may have misunderstood the quesstion. If you want to cover some gray hair and want to match your hair color, then go the the store that handles Roux product and look at their samples to see if they might match your hair color. If not then go to your hair stylist and ask what color that you need. Betty

I'm not sure I understand the question, but I typically can spray it on my roots and it will cover them until I wash my hair again. I typically shampoo every other day. I would not recommend it for all over head application. It's more to cover a small area.

Hello Suzie, My hair is about 60% gray and becomes frizzy when color burns it therefore that is why I use this Chromatics developer which is a conditioning developer. I use 9NW color to blend best with gray hair so the roots don't show immediately. I'm a blonde without bleaching thanks to REDKEN. I have salons trying to have me change to other products and it had been a long time before I found this product that works so great. I will never leave REDKEN again. YOu can view information on their website although if your not a professional you wont be able to purchase from them. I let my license expire so I buy from ebay and actually have found REDKEN is cheaper on ebay then anywhere else. Good Luck! hope this helps you!

If you are dying your hair black just to do it black, use a different product. If you have gray hair you are trying to cover use a brown to light brown. Black is not natural to cover gray hair. It will not look natural and to stark. The use of a brown color because of the gray you will have the look of natural highlights when you cover the gray. I personally would not use a different dye product with this developer.

I have very thick hair as well, but I didn't know how many to purchase either. In the beginning I ordered one, but it didn't blend to well since my hair is just past my shoulders and the extensions are down to my lower back. I would recommend buying at least two, and cut them into layers to make it more natural. Some people buy five and layer them to make it very realistic. I would just start out with 2 or 3.

I have very thick hair as well. It is not as long as yours however. Mine is just shoulder length. I use conditioner only on my ends and this tends to give a better "lift" to the hair on top of my head. After I blow dry my hair, I spray Silk Elements Mega Silk Heat Protection spray on the ends. Then roll my hair in very small sections. Make sure the rollers are fully heated and leave them in your hair until they are completely cool. I have very nice, firm curls that last at least a couple of days. Might have to touch up with just one row of curlers on day 2 and 3, but overall, I think they do an excellent job. Hope this helps.

Yes it covers my grey hair. The hair on top of my head is mostly grey and after using the Red Henna, the result is a very vibrant redheaded color.

The product is suitable for people with very little grey. I unsuccessfully attempted to color my greys with Chromatics, but it turned out to be more of a toner on my already colored hair. It did not color the grey roots. I do not use this product anymore.

hello, what you need to do is, first determine what color you want to be... if you have grey or white roots, make sure you pick a natural color , like for instants.. natural brown , light natural blond.. use 20%peroxide... so mix 2 ounces of peroxide to one tube of the color with this product,,, if you need more info just ask me what you need to know.. i am actually a hair dresser and i have used this for yrs and it does have excellent coverage.... i also use other shades to mix with the natural color, meaning you need other tubes of accent color to mix with with your color for a more natural look... i hope i did not confuse you... hello, what you need to do is, first determine what color you want to be... if you have grey or white roots, make sure you pick a natural color , like for instants.. natural brown , light natural blond.. use 20%peroxide... so mix 2 ounces of peroxide to one tube of the color with this product,,, if you need more info just ask me what you need to know.. i am actually a hair dresser and i have used this for yrs and it does have excellent coverage.... i also use other shades to mix with the natural color, meaning you need other tubes of accent color to mix with with your color for a more... » Read More hello, what you need to do is, first determine what color you want to be... if you have grey or white roots, make sure you pick a natural color , like for instants.. natural brown , light natural blond.. use 20%peroxide... so mix 2 ounces of peroxide to one tube of the color with this product,,, if you need more info just ask me what you need to know.. i am actually a hair dresser and i have used this for yrs and it does have excellent coverage.... i also use other shades to mix with the natural color, meaning you need other tubes of accent color to mix with with your color for a more natural look... i hope i did not confuse you... « Show Less

Hi I purchased 3 bundles and did a full weave. My hair is very thick and full. I wished I had more. The tracks are good lenght and they are full not thin. I like my hair. By it being raw hair use a tangle free conditioning shampoo it works well with this hair. I hope this helped.

Mark you may be able to however not sure it would look very good / natural as an all over color - when I do my roots it covers however it's kinda dull. I would say get some and try it - it's not that expensive you may find it's just what you want - I have lots of hair and it's long so I wouldn't use it for all over color Terie
