Hi, I don't know how long it takes to completely wash out but I retouch my roots with a temporary color after each shampoo with a different brand of course. So unless you are using it at each shampoo I believe your normal gray will return.

I have a lot if grey therefore every two weeks when I wash my hair I have to put more rinse in. If you don't have much grey it should last at least month. The rinse hasn't changed my grey yellowish; it's still bright white- darn it.

For me this product never washes out of the longer strands, meaning after I shampoo, it doesn't buldge, which is why I love it. I have long hair, and the gray in my longer strands has stayed completely colored every since I started using this product after all shampoos....and I or my hairstylist just reapplies it to my new growth. (roots) which is the only place it is gray and around my front edges, which sometimes I think fades more if I accidently get it wet often when showering, which I find odd, since it has never washed out anywhere else. That's what I like most about this product as opposed to the one in the Bronze bottle, which I used for years, and always faded all over after every shampoo...BUT it will be different for different people, because everyone doesn't take color the same. I have a girlfriend whose hair will not color well with this product, and she tried another product that worked for her.

Based on my testing with this product (only a few sample points) - it seems to depend more on how long the hair has been gray than on how much of it is gray. If its been gray more than 8 years, the recovery is fairly slow - 3 to 5 percent of the gray hair strands start to get color each month. So when you see improvement will depend on where you are looking - arms, legs, face, head - you will see improvement on the head last.

Hi, no this color does not come out in the first wash. For me it starts to fade a little after 5-6 washes and I re-do the color every 6-8 weeks.

Okay leave it on as long as you can stand it, at least 3 hours.I recommend Henna sooq henna . You have to let the dye release but I could see on my grey hairs a vibrant red color.The henna maiden washed out very easily, you will see it in the water each time you shampoo your hair.

I usually leave it in about an hour, but I have naturally dark hair. I also mix a little of the leftover dye into my conditioner afterwards to make the color last longer, and it usually stays nice and bright for about a month and a half.

Usually after about 4 to 5 washes you'll be left with a green hue for a while. Yes, it does wash out completely, but you'll still have lighter streaks of hair in certain spots for a few months. I have red hair so it wasn't to big a deal for me. I hope I could help.

The good thing is that you only need to go to a golden/orange if you have dark hair, but if you have highlights of blonde with your dirty blonde hair you should be fine... make sure you let it soak in for about an hour..I heard that if you wash your hair with vinegar you can also keep the color in longer. But that's not practical. The color fades if you are in the sun too! If you use color protecting shampoo it should last longer, sulfate-free. If you want it to fade, then you can always buy some boxed color and dye it to a normal color. GL!

Yes, within a month or two it will return to your natural color. It only stays the vivid color for a week or two, and after that it lightens considerably. If you want it to stay the same color, reapply after a few weeks. However, the light color does look nice on blonde hair.

At first...just like any other hair color or dye. You have to put it on thick anyway, and it won't stain your hair line as you would think of the traditional henna (I based my hairline with vaseline to protect it anyway), so just remember to apply it thick to cover your gray - like mud!! It's worth it if you are trying to move away from chemicals. The color is subtle at first, but is vibrant as time goes on and especially in natural light. I do find however, that the gray does come thru the color - it's very strong - and if you use the auburn, your gray will look kind of orangey after a while. At least mine did!

I have greys (they're actually white) and have been using SE for 20 years. I've noticed that the whites don't hold onto the color as well as the rest of my hair and it washes out very quickly. (blues, greens, pinks, reds and purples tested)

It's a semi permanent hair dye. It's more like a hair stain meaning it will wash out a little every time you shampoo your hair. With that being said it still last a very long time depending on how your hair was before you dyed it. If you bleach your hair first it will last much longer and be more vibrant. I usually dye my hair about every 2 months when the roots are visible.

I love this product. I my hair is very dark before the gray showed up. If you have light brown hair it might not work, but med to dark yes. Also I towel dry after i shampoo and while still in the shower I comb my hair back and with he'd tilted back, squirt the product over the hair roots in the fron and middle of the head and brush it thru. Do not rinse. I then I finish showering I wrap a towel over my hair and then style as usual.. Warning: keep an old towel just for this, towel will pick up the grey tones of the product.

I have seen no evidence that Catalase or any of the other ingredients do anything to reverse gray hair. I have been on for 6 months and have not seen any change on gray hair reversing.

No .... Spray it in you hair I leave it in for 10 minutes and rinse out with cold water... Your hair will be amazing for about 3-4 weeks... I do this treatment every 3 weeks my hair is healthy for color treated hair...

Hey Blondie _ been there, done that!!! I know the balancing act. I Live it. Yes, this is the color you want, follow instructions and no brassy at all. Yay but, I fell asleep with it on for three hours, playboy white is what I got, not my favorite "Land O' Lakes" I have to fix it (been super busy) I will put a color on after doing roots to fix. Ok so your question- keep it about 1 hour with a shower cap (throw away process) yes it will be purple, and you will not have white hair it will be sexy blonde. From one to another xo

It'll definently show up on the grey! But if your other hair is dark, and you want the color to show up, then yes bleach first

I use it for my first wash as it really cleans my scalp and then proceed with my other products. I have very gray hair and it has never ever turned it pink. Enjoy!
