I have very short hair and only use about 1/4 of the bottle. Can I save the bottle for more uses or must I throw it away. Does it go bad once opened?

I have short hair and I save the remainder for future uses. Nothing happens to it because it does not have an activator - the ammonia and peroxide.

I use Clairol Beautiful Warm Brown. I use half a bottle and save the rest for the next month. Works for me.

I save it and use the rest. The only "warning" is that the color might be slightly different than the first application. No problem for me!

It shouldn't go bad, but once oxidized it might not be as strong or effective as the first time.

In the case of two 4 oz bottles you have two containers, two labels, and processing costs that are double the cost of a single 8 oz bottle. So it is always more economical to buy the larger bottle , if you need that much. Also, remember that shelf life is about a year from manufacturing because there are no preservatives in the product. So, this is what we recommend: for short hair and as facial moisturizer, 2 oz bottle; longer hair, facial moisturizer, some body use such as hands, feet, elbows, 4 oz; to share, set of 2 4 oz bottles; all uses, including whole body moisturizing and as bath oil; 8 oz. Please let us know if you need any help. We can be reached at 1-800-253-7011. Thank you

It's a smallish bottle so if you use it daily it probably will be gone before it would go bad. But you could refrigerate it if you want.

First off, you have every reason to be excited as this is the real deal!!! Now to answer your question - NO DO NOT MIX II WITH WATER OR ANYTHING ELSE!!! Simply apply the entire content on one bottle from your roots to the ends of your hair and let it sit for about 15-20 mins (no longer), preferably with a heating wrap cap to get the full benefits of deep conditioning. This is how I use it and it absolutely stopped my hair from falling out after I accidentally damaged it. Hope this helps!!!

My husband uses the spray and he uses more than one bottle in a year, but he certainly doesn't use six bottles. It depends how much you use and if you use it more than once a day. It works quite well and I'm sure it will keep if you store it properly. You might check with the company on the shelf life of the product.

My hair is almost passed my boobs I would use 2 bottles just to be safe! But I use two bottles because I mixed the color together, it's a pretty good amount of hair dye for one tube, but be safe than sorry and get two :)

I don't usually use it every day because I work during the week and I get pretty hot, so I usually just put my hair up. So I can make one bottle last maybe a month and a half. I have never tried the cherry though

Yes, It worked for me. My hair is also short and I only use it for top and front, sometimes I used leftover for second time (need to seal the bottles tightly), the results are not as good as the first time but still get some curls.

I did and no problems. I think it just loses it potency. This product should be put in individual 'vials' and not in such a big bottle. I don't see how anyone could possibly use this much liquid in 30 days or less.

I only stored it at room temperature. when taking it the bottle will only last a couple of weeks. good luck

I seem to get questions, all the time, about this product that I purchased some time ago. I 'm certainly not an expert on it. I can tell you that I refrigerated my bottle and would bring it to room temperature before using it. I had it for quite a while since it is used in small amounts. I never suffered any ill effects from it.

I have had partially used bottles on the shelf for up to 6 months without problem. if you mix the two components together, you have a very short window of use. 5 min +/-. it is not reusable.

I keep mine in the refrigerator as stated on the bottle but I do know someone who's using in her hair and she does not refrigerate. Hope this helps.

It will probably help make it more hydrated, smooth and easier to control. Its not bad for your hair either. Keep in mind not to leave it on any longer than 15 minutes (it will start to burn because it is paprika)

Hello, I am on my forth bottle of this product. If you start using it right away after getting it then with twice a day use the quality will not decrease. One time I ordered the product in advance not wanting to be without it even for short time and by the end of use that bottle the stuff started to go yellow. I learned :) Since then I do not order it far in advance and all is good!

If you haven't opened the bottle then it will last for a long time. I have had no problems with being unused for long periods of time.

From my experience with this particular brand, once you open the spout you have a year at best, two years if you can tolerate some progressive degradation in its properties (thin viscosity becomes medium, then thick, then solid). I've also noticed that the less there remains in the bottle the quicker it degrades (due to air coming in at each subsequent use I would guess). I've stored unopened bottles in the fridge for over a year with good results, but once opened the clock is ticking.
