I would like to know if anyone has used the Auburn Colora Cream on hair that is regularly colored in the auburn family (by regularly colored, I mean about every 6 to 8 weeks with the typical store products), and if you have what was the outcome as far...

I love this stuff - unlike the powdered henna, its SUPER easy to use. I used the powder for about 3 years then found this. Literally, all you do is squeeze the stuff into your hair. Instructions say for an hour, but I do two because I have some grey to cover. It's very easy on your hair (I HATE chemicals also). It starts out sort of a brassy color, but with any henna, it takes a day or two to oxidize so be patient and wait for 24-48 hours and you will see a lovely color......... the color slowly fades so you don't have that annoying definitive line that tells everyone your hair is colored (for me, it fades slowly so when the grey grows back in it sort of just blends in with the henna colored hair. And also unlike the chemical colors - this one doesn't come off on my sheets, doesn't dye your skin and one of the greatest things is that (since you don't have to mix any chemicals) if you have left over stuff you just cover the little tip with cling wrap to keep it from drying out - this is perfect for little touch ups on the grey that grows out while the rest of your hair is still a pretty color :) ............. BTW - I use this about every 3-4 weeks

I have used this product for about 8 month no issue with my colored hair. great product. I compared different products before I started using this one and found this to be my best option. Good luck.

I too used this for years, but not recently. I'm glad to find it available on Amazon, and it's half the price of a local beauty supply store in SoCal. It's a great product and revitalizes the hair and gives it a healthy shine. I agree with previous comments...a little goes a long way. Good luck. Nancy

Reds by nature are more fragile... But the color lasts a good 6 weeks depending on the shade. My hair loses color all over and I use intense copper blonde... So I do mine every 5 weeks. My daughter uses a golden blonde and she colors every 8 weeks.

I have used this product 3 times and have had a completely different experience than others who have responded. I think the trick is to not push up too much product at a time. You do not need much. Also people have said it doesn't work but they have washed it out, just like a traditional hair color product. You don't wash this out. It is so convenient and easy to use. I think it is a genius product.

Hmmm... I see others have had no problems. But I used to use this shampoo all the time, and after they changed the formula a year or so ago it began stripping out my color. I use Shades semipermanent color, applied at a salon.

It covers my gray strands beautifully, they look like a lighter shade of auburn and come out looking like highlights. The very best part, other than making your hair feel healthy, it that it doesn't wash out like the peroxide colorings. Just remember to super condition your hair afterward. The color of your hair will also become more vibrant each day, for about a week after coloring your hair. It is work, but I will never go back to the chemical alternative...I also get compliments all the time

I use this for my children who are bi-racial and it has been a life saver. I myself have a regular strength relaxer applied to my hair every 6 weeks. I think based on what I have seen this product do for my children, that it may be a bit too mild for both my and your hair, especially if your current relaxer strength is super. I would say be careful and maybe try the strand test if you really want to use it, but I'm not sure that it would give you the result you are looking for.

I have used this product several times. With each initial use the hair is, indeed, pretty dark. However, with each subsequent wash, the hair becomes lighter. The end product for me has been highlights that are almost yellow-gold. It never seems to completely wash out. I really like it.

I bought mine months ago..like way before Thanksgiving and i still have it. I use mine all the time..usually when Im in my 5 week..I use it for just my part too. The little comb is great,..I use this after I blow dry my hair before i use the flat iron. with the comb held under you just 'color' the roots using the comb to protect your scalp. I totally love this product.. I cant express how awesome it is. SO much better then any 'mascara' type root touch up or the powder..this is the best Ive tried. Good luck!

I have color treated hair also and have had no problems with this brand. I hate all the psoriasis shampoos that wreck your hair. For me, this has been the best system. I think both products are great, but the conditioner is especially good since it moisturizers really well and is medicated. I haven't used the serum a lot, but it seems soothing. I only use it right after I shampoo when my hair is wet. Using serum stuff on dry hair usually makes your hair look awful in my experience.

I love this shampoo and haven't had any problems with drying or with it fading my hair color! It's pretty awesome! There may be a detox period though if you aren't used to natural shampoos. Mine was about 3 weeks when I first switched. I've tried several but nothing compares to this one. Go for it!

Agadir Argan Products are great for color treated hair; I have been using this product for over a year now and I to have color treated hair. I have never had the color stripped from my hair at all and actually it really does help to retain the color longer; my hair looks great until I have to go monthly to get my roots redone. Personally I feel it has to do with being sulfate free and the Argan oil keeps my hair looking healthy and shiny. I always order on line because it is too expensive in the salon or at CVS or Walgreens.

I started using indigo in November (4 months ago). My color has not faded at all. My hair is difficult to dye! I have had permanent dyes that washed out when I rinsed my hair. I only apply indigo to my new growth, after applying henna. I do not mix them. I like that dark auburn with red streaks. It looks like my family's hair color. This product is also not as gritty as others and easier to rinse out (after three rinses with applying conditioner between rinses).

I don't use this color, but the HerbaShine color I use lasts me a good 4 weeks. I have found that HerbaShine lasts much longer than Clairol Natural Instincts.

I have gray so I do it every 4 weeks to cover outgrowth but it lasts well for me. I do not use shampoo with sodium laurel sulfate which strip the color and I don't wash my hair everyday but overall, I really like this product.
