How does this work on naturally white hair? I started going grey EARLY!! And now I'm mostly blondish-white.

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)

I have quite a bit of grey and it tends to take the color extremely well. You get a much more vivid color than even the bleached hair gets! Good luck.

I used it on my mom who has naturally white hair and it was absolutely beautiful! =]. Just don't condition your hair before you dye it only wash and make sure your hair is dry when you put the dye on and leave it on for about an hour

It's going to be really bright! Make sure you use it on shampooed non conditioned dry hair. :D It'll be lovely.

It's going to be more vivid, like it would appear on bleached hair. You can find pictures of most of the colors on real hair if you Google them. Your hair will look like the more vibrant photos.

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!

I have grey hair and it works very well for me. Much better than anything I have tried to date.

Sorry, but your question is not connected to my review! Are you asking about hair color? Best bet is to go their web site and ask them. I am blond and it works great for me. I am not a beautician but from what little I know about hair color, you might need to bleach your hair to achieve a blond color. Again, I'd ask them.

Yes lol I have white hair and I use it for mine. It's very oily so when I use it, I put it on at night and wash it out the next morning. It makes my hair very soft and healthy feeling. A little too oily for leaving the house though

I'm of Irish/Scottish descent. My hair was getting really frizzy because I have a lot more grayhair now. I LOVE this product. I'd given up on having shiny hair again. This really works. So,I don't know about African American hair, but I think it's worth a try!

I don't have experience with black hair as mine is a redish blonde. I have always treated my entire head with special attention to application around the sides and sideburn area as this is where my gray hair shows more than on top. Once you apply the creme on a daily basis and your hair begins to lose the gray, I only apply a couple of times a week or sometimes less to allow some gray to mix in. I want to avoid the appearance of a "dye job". This product is a great way to keep the gray from taking over without totally eliminating the gray.

I'm not 100% gray hair but I'm about 70% gray. This shampoo is great ! Cleans without over drying, you need just a pea size and you'll have plenty of suds, I feel this product is perfect for maturing hair and I will buy it again. I hope this helps!! Enjoy!

The toner is permanent. I only use a toning shampoo when I start to notice brassiness/yellow tone coming in but that's because I'm originally a brunette gone bleach blonde with white hair patches (which is one of the reasons I went blonde). I'm assuming with white hair already you would just need to touch up as your roots grow. I know that I notice my white hair areas are lighter and don't go brassy like my original brown hair bleached & toned areas. (20% white hair/80% brunette) so it kind of looks like highlights in areas... Overall, this toner/dye has worked amazing. Can't complain. I would suggest if you want to go more silvery tone to add a few drops of the Wella 050 cool toner into this one which is what I did and my hair was a very grayish blonde (ashy) which is what I wanted... Hope this helps.

If this product were used on gray hair, there is a possibility it would turn white. It basically brings out a lighter version of the current color of your hair, and with different colored hair it can bring out different tints when lightened. Beware, if used on dyed hair it can cause unwanted results!

You need to use 10% developer, and you are going to be very happy with the result. Trust me, I have a lot of stubborn gray hair, and I am using 10 . It covered all the gray in my roots.

In all my experience one hour and I stay creamy blonde no brassy not white of course if you're worried I would do 1/2 hour so there is no chance. That's how it works for me, I hope it's the same for you! Hearts

Do you mean strawberry blonde or blonde blonde? It takes 2-3 applications to get this shade, if this is your first time and especially if you have grey hair. Also, yoi have to keep it more than 4hours minimum. Also, as it says on the instructions: don't shampoo your hair for at lest a day after application. Just rinse. Read instructions and follow and you will get it. It does work. I have 80% grey. 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.
