How is that at covering gray with 10 vol peroxide? How long do you have to leave on for best gray coverage results?

the formula given to me by my daughter who is a hairdress in another state is 1 oz #7 1/4 oz #6.45 and 1 1/2oz of 20 vol developer. My hair turns out medium brown hair with some red hight lights. The front of my head is all gray and it covers it well. I leave it on for 25 minutes. I do just the roots then in the last five minutes i rub it through my whole head. Good luck.

I use no lift (0 developer) and actually get some grey coverage. My guess is that 20 would be better. Or you could try 10.

Was wondering how you pick the developer? My mom had her hair colored at a salon here, and wants to do her own at home. So I got the color but I dont know what kind of developer to buy. She is all grey

Yes, definitely! Leave it on for a good 5-10 minutes and results are better. :)

I would suggest mousse, that way you are assured better coverage.Editing to add: I used the rinse a handful of times before giving up on it, and switching products to a mousse temporary dye.

Do you mean fully gray??? I have plenty of gray but am not totally gray, so I tint my hair 2 weeks before the perm so that I have even color. The perm will fade it but it works better. I have used this perm for 20 years and it is/was wonderful!!! They took this one off the market and put out a new and improved one. I am not impressed and was happy to find the "old" one on Amazon. It is a great perm!

Hi, Denise. Wish I could help. I've had it awhile, and stained it gray.I love it, though. :-)

It will cover. Make sure you are using the prepare. It helps get those stubborn greys!

about 1x/month - once there are too many grays to 'powder' spray over. Sometimes I stretch it to 6 weeks. I'm not too regimented about doing it - I'd rather use it than spend tedious time in a salon. : -}

I keep it on until it starts to burn or gets frosty. Probably 1-3 min. It depends on the,area of my face.

It does cover gray really good, is not chemical free, read the i greadients list. How long it last depends in the water quality where you live i have a headshower to help it last longer.

My experience has been that frequent washing, perspiring,heavy brushing and the amount of gray I have makes a difference. The formula only covers the hair and doesn't penetrate. Therefore the areas that get wet, around the hairline loses the color first. However, it's easy to touch up.

I like the stuff! I was skeptical - but it works very well and is not caustic! As for coverage: that is hard to say. It think it will depend on the material(s) being removed i.e. thickness, age, and what it is... But, I would let the stuff sit for a bit - to do its magic. I found that applying it and then going back over it 15 mins later with a dabbing or swirling style with a throw-away brush worked best. In applying, more is not necessarily better. Patients is best... Hope that helps!! lv

It covers my gray strands beautifully, they look like a lighter shade of auburn and come out looking like highlights. The very best part, other than making your hair feel healthy, it that it doesn't wash out like the peroxide colorings. Just remember to super condition your hair afterward. The color of your hair will also become more vibrant each day, for about a week after coloring your hair. It is work, but I will never go back to the chemical alternative...I also get compliments all the time

Well that depends on such things as density of coverage and frequency of use. It does not take a whole lot of juice to create a fairly dense fog. And since your fogging from up wind and letting it drift you get fairly good coverage. For me here in Spring TX once a week use kept the mosquitoes and fly's down. I'm still working on my first 1/2 gal. BTW this stuff does a real good job.

It covered my gray. It lasts as long as loving care did.....but that depends how often you wash your hair. I get rid of my gray every couple of months.

I simply cover the area with a visible coating--it disappears in a few minutes. It doesn't stain in my experience.

I have used the dark brown coloring on my hair which is approximately 25-30% gray. It covers the gray thoroughly. I do leave the product on for 30 minutes, which is longer than the directions recommend. Even with leaving it on for that length of time, my hair is soft and undamaged by the coloring.

Depends on how long you let it run. If you are running the batch for just a couple hours it will be mostly clear with a tad bit of a haze- if you let it go for 4 hours or more it starts to get that amber-ish color because of the higher silver content of the H20. I love this kit! I usually let mine process for 6- 12 hours.
