Can you use this on lighter colored hair with gray roots?

I don't think this would take for light coloured hair. I see it working on hair that is naturally dark brown or black.

The shampoo and conditioner I think will soften it, but the blondeing powder probably won't make the gray more silver or white. If you are talking about a little gray, and the rest blonde I'd say yes, go for it. If you are mostly gray I would suggest Unite Blonda Shampoo, or Pravana sulfate free pure light shampoo and conditioner as they are purple and neutralize the yellow tones in gray hair and the brassy tones in blonde hair.

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 am blonde so the gray I have doesn't show. That being said I have used this conditioner for several years and I don't think it makes hair look darker at all. So I don't think it will help you, sorry! It is a wonderful conditioner tho.

Hello, No you may use this with brown hair. If you are looking for grey coverage then you will not be disappointed. I mix this with Nupur, Amla, and shikakai powder for a great condition for your hair. The amount depends on the length and thickness of your hair. To cover your grey at the same time mix 12 hours before with very warm water and a tablespoon of cider vinegar, just enough to make it thick like yogurt, this will release the dye an you will have wonderful results. Rinse your hair with cider vinegar before you apply this thick mixture. Wrap your hair in plastic wrap and leave on as long as you like. You will have a medium brown color once you are done. This will darken a touch in 2 to 4 days. I add in a couple tablespoons of Cinnamon 10 minutes before I put this in my hair. I hope this helps. =O)

Thank you for this post! This is the exact question I had (about ethnic hair). I color my hair trying to hide the (premature) grays and I would like to not have to relax my hair so much.

I used 2/3 Zenia Henna Powder with 1/3 Indigo. I am very gray. It worked beautifully. Came out dark but lightened after a few shampoos. I am going to try 3/4 Zenia Henna with 1/4 Indigo to see if I can get more of a chestnut color but fabulous results thusfar.!

You should be able to use it as is. My hair is a darker brown so it came out a deeper darker burgundy that what is shown here. if your hair is a medium blonde you should get the results shown on the picture. Mine also may be darker because I left it in overnight. The longer you leave it on, the darker/more developed the color will be. Good luck.

The trickiest part, I think, is just trying to section your hair so you color just the roots and not the ends. If you can do that, you'll be fine. I've used this kit a handful of times now and the only thing I did once was get a bit darker ends than I wanted, but it was because the hair was short in that section. The colors come our very luminous, which I love.

i'm assuming since your hair is lighter, the color of the spray will show up more easily, meaning it will take only a couple of pumps. the thing is, the product is difficult to distribute evenly throughout hair. i think using a hair dye for grays would be more effective, but that's just my opinion.

I'm not sure, I haven't used it on gray. It probably will, it may just take a few extra treatments.

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 takes the yellow out of the gray, leaving purer gray hair. I don't believe it has any effect on stopping gray hair!

Yes, I have 'old' grey hair. I'm African Amercan w/natural hair. Since using this shampoo, I've noticed my roots in the crown seem to be darker. I had considerable hair loss due to a medical issue (thyroid) and dermatologist instructed me to stop relaxing, coloring and using heat. Hair was breaking/shedding and very brittle prior to using this shampoo. I'm very pleased with the results--hair is much healthier and manageable. It's very concentrated, so a little goes a long way.

Sorry, but I can only give advise on grey or white hair. I think that is basically what this product is intended for. It more or less takes out the yellowing and gives your hair more shine, which I personally know is true. You may have to contact the manufacturer about your question. Sorry I can't help.

It does not work on any color hair. Not even bleached or grey hair. Try a different brand.

You can use whatever you wish. Just keep in mind that the lower you go, the less color will show. Ex: if you use a 40 developer, your color will be vibrant and pop. If you use a 20 developer, your color will be lightly vibrant and suttle. Also, the longer you keep it on the hair, the more color you get. Ps: don't exceed over 1hr. I honestly wouldn't even go over that. Hope this helps
