I don't know about the colors you are talking about. I tinted my gray (very white) hair around my face one month ago with the Black shade color because I did not want reddish highlights. The white hairs were tinted charcoal with blue highlights, I like it a lot, blends in with the L'Oreal permanent Dark Brown that I am growing out, the color is still only slightly lighter. I am still waiting for the new growth to show because there is no sharp demarcation as with regular tints. Brown will give you reddish highlights. The trick is to mix with half water and half apple cider vinegar, which makes the hair take more tint and last longer. Good luck! I don't know about the colors you are talking about.

You can always darken your hair with henna. Just be sure to wash out any conditioners, styling products, etc. before applying the henna. And add 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar to your henna when you mix it. Helps the color take better. Henna will not lighten your hair, its just herbs.

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

If you have close to white hair then I don't think the color assortment of this product will work well for you. The picture shows a ginger blonde and that is one of their lighter colors.....sounds like you would need at least a platinum blonde color to come close. Hope this helps!

Yes it does. When I first put it on it looks just a bit reddish brown until it dries. Each day until I wash my hair it even seems to blend and cover the grey more. I use it mainly on the part at the center top of my head because it shows grey there first. I usually wash my hair twice a week because more often than that dries it out. I'm able to wait at least 3 weeks longer before coloring my roots at the salon using this Touchback marker. I keep 2 on hand at all times!!!! It works.

I am gray haired and use the light blonde shade. It works - HOWEVER I'm hoping they come up with a gray shade that might look a little more natural because the light blonde looks brown. You definitely don't want a darker shade.

I would say get the dark brown as my hairdresser says that you want your roots darker than the rest of your hair.

Hi Lisa,My hair is about shoulder length. I only do my whole head once, and then I just do my roots, like you would with regular color. This is the best product I have ever used; no toxic chemicals, and my hairs stays healthy and shiny with great body. I use the chocolate, gives a nice rich brown with red highlights where I have grey. Hope this helps.

It works great on roots, I used it on mine without any issues. I do recommend if you've already bleached your hair that you have a deep conditioning treatment handy afterwards, because your hair will definitely need it.

I used both And my hair looks great! Even though my natural color is blonde i have highlights And they stayed the same as when i colored it! Maybe you can try some hidratant creme!

My hair color was almost dark brown (between dark blonde and dark brown), and I've been using for 5 months and I'm almost blonde now.. Sometimes it looks a little bit like red, but depends on the light. It will work, but I'm a little concerned about what color would turn, since the product says that dark hair will turn a little bit red and not blonde.

Admittedly, I am a NOVICE at coloring my hair. The colors of this product that I have used seem to be TRUE. I do not believe that the combination for which you are inquiring would give you a true auburn, but would most likely be a darker shade. I do find this to be a safe and natural product that leaves hair silky, soft, and manageable and that you can't go wrong using or trying it. Sorry I cannot be of more help.

I have am a natural blonde with dirty one roots. I used the product and when I went to my hair dresser she asked why my hair is orange. I would not use it on dark hair at all unless you want to have a pumpkin hue.

I saw no difference in my hair color after using this product. I have light brownish/blonde hair.

Yes, that is why I started using it. The gray hairs look a tiny bit lighter than the rest of my hair, but it makes my hair look naturally weaved. My hair is naturally a mousey brown, and this product adds a lot of richness to the color. I really like using it.

The product I have is not really blonde, but a light brown, however, I am a light blonde and it looks better than many of the other products that are designated blonde. It is not orange and it is not too light , it is more of a medium taupe. I really like this product. It looks natural.

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.

No, it will make it more blonde. It gives you natrual tones. Be CAREFUL on how much you use it can easily damage hair
