Does the 74 deep copper shimmer bleach your hair or is it just color?

The answer is a little complicated, but to summarize, yes to both. L'Oreal Feria 74 Deep Copper Shimmer is just the colour, shimmer component, and conditioner to colour and soften your hair. It does not include professional bleach in the kit, but it does contain ammonium and certain alcohols so your hair should lighten a bit while it develops. If you think that your hair is too dark to get the desired shade from it, you may want to check Amazon or a local beauty supply store for professional bleaching options before applying this colour. There is a panel on the side of the L'Oreal Feria packages that shows the expected shade based off of your starting hair colour, which I have borrowed from Google and can be viewed here: http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51QvFS8eurL.jpg. Happy colouring!

Nope! I have dark brown hair, and it significantly lightens my hair without the need to bleach.

It removes the brassiness in silver hair, should with blond. It doesn't lighten, just removes the brassiness and helps hair shine!

No! The shampoo is purple but it brings out the sparkle in gray/silver hair without changing the color. I've only recently allowed my natural color to grow in after years of being a "blonde". Using the shampoo I'd used for years made my hair dull and rather frizzy, a problem I'd never encountered as I have straight, silky hair. Pantene Silver made a huge difference and even without conditioner the texture is soft and manageable. I highly recommend this product. Similar products are considerably more expensive but why pay for a salon "name" when this works as well?

Hmm you bleach your hair, do a strand test first , test the purple, you want the purple come through bleach completely, or highlights , I hope this helps

On my friend (bleached to dirty blonde from dark brown) it turned (in ~1.5h) nice medium-dark blue-purple. She likes it :)

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.

It works really well with me to remove the unwanted brassiness and yellow tones. You will need to bleach your hair first though to acquire the very light blond you are wanting. You will be then ready to test how long this great product needs to be applied for you personally to get the exact shade you're dreaming of. Hope this helps. Good luck Christina!

No. Mine is still beautiful and Auburn !! It will actually make the color look more rich. Remember, a little goes a long way.

Shimmer, but not too much shimmer. It's just right! And it lasts forever. A little goes a long way. You'll love it!

I didn't use any with mine, because I believe it works more like a stain. It came out the brightest, vibrant purple and I loved it. My entire head was purple.

Mine is the same way. It does not affect the darker hair, only the gray. It keeps it shiny and you do not get the yellowing.

DON'T USE MANIC PANIC! Its the worst hair dye it will continue to bleed on everything! Then fade to a disgusting color.You'll only see sparks bleed out in the shower but not on you or your clothes. Well your scalp but will wash off after a few shampoos. I have blue highlights and have to touch it up every 2-3 weeks to keep the color I like. Its gentle on your hair too my hair seems to dry out as it fades but feels silky soft after I touch it up. Its a great product!

If it lightens, it's not obvious to me at all. It remains fairly dark. I have to dye my hair again only because the roots start standing out a lot. Not sure if it matters, but I have thick hair. I love this brand, but I'm pretty sure they discontinued this semi-permanent hair color. So if you decide you like it, you will have to stock up like I did :) Good luck!

They say that your hair should be the color of the inside of a banana peel for it to make it white, but I have a lot of brassy/gold tones in my hair and it definitely takes them down to a great white blonde color. This is my favorite toner. Watch out though, if you leave it on too long it will tint your hair purple. Just keep checking it and you will be fine.

It just helps maintain the color you still have. Very natural and doesn't cover the gray. I've used it for years and have never died my hair.

I don't know what type of hair it is but the hair diameter is thick. I have really fine hair and find the hair diameter to thick to match my hair texture. Yes you can bleach or color the hair. I don't have a very thick hairline so I find that this hair piece did not work well for me. If you still have a good hairline it would look good. The hair quality is very good.
