My hair is mostly brown but with patches of gray. What does it do to the brown hair?

I really can't answer as my hair has not been brown for several years and I only started using Simply Silver when it turned gray. I would assume it would keep your patches of gray brighter and I don't think it would affect the brown.

I don't think anything except make it more vibrant. My hair almost 100% white. It removes the yellow from my hair but I only use 2-3 times a week otherwise my hair would get a blue hue to it. I get many compliments on my hair usually from perfect strangers about how white it is.

Nexxus simply silver works beautifully on the grey hair and helps to highlight the brownish hair. No need to worry, go for it. What I will recommend is that you do not leave in the shampoo too long. I usually apply and wash out immediately inorder not to have too blue a color. After few applications you will get the xesired effect.

I don't have gray hair so I cannot say for certain but I don't see why it wouldn't. Regular electrolysis (performed at a salon) works on gray hair. Plus you have to put the needle in the hair follicle for the electrical current to "zap" the hair. Therefore I don't think hair color has any bearing on its performance.

I'm sorry, Linda. I only have a bit of gray at my temples. My friend is completely gray and loves it. Although, at times, she does color her hair. She hasn't mentioned if there is a difference for natural or colored hair.

HardUp is blue so it is not going to make your hair yellow. My hair is gray around my temples and I do not see any difference in the color after I have used the product. I suppose it could make your hair blue if an over abundance is used. However yiu don't need to use a lot.

I've used the dark brown and it isn't quite dark enough for covering gray hair. I don't know for sure but I would give it a try. I've also heard that you can add day old coffee, rather than water to the mix - to bring out the brown. Somewhere I also read that you can add black castor oil, which you can order through Amazon. Just add a little less water. I haven't yet tried these but I plan to experiment more in the future!

Mine is the same way. It does not affect the darker hair, only the gray. It keeps it shiny and you do not get the yellowing.

Hi Sharon, I really can't say for sure, because I have brown hair however in my opinion it washes out completely. I do recall reading one review where the person said it didn't wash out properly but I'm sure if that were the case there would be more people complaining. I suggest trying it on a strip of hair that's not very obvious, although you would still have to buy it to be able to try it. I hope this helps.

works on my graying hair. I am about 60/40 light brown/gray and it covers gray and lightens well.

My hair is also very gray but the REDKEN Oil in Cream Developer 20% does the job. My natural haircolor was medium brown. Now I mix the Redken Chromatics using 80% 6Gwith 20% 6Gr.Ever since I use Redken Chromatics the texture of my hair has very much improved. It has more bounce, is shiny and looks very natural.

Lately, my hair--especially the parts that have more gray--come out either orange or greenish, and I have to use Clairol's blue Shimmer Lights and even sponge my6 hair once it dries with grape Kool-ade to take out this obnoxious tinge. It never used to do that with Clairol Loving Care, and the first few times that I tried the CoSaMo, it was okay too!

I have brown hair. It turned all my white hairs auburn and gave a pretty reddish tint to the brown. Overall people tell me it looks mahogany. I love it. I get tons of compliments.

From what I understand henna does not do too well with gray hair. Because it does not have its own pigment anymore, it absorbs all of the henna color rather than the henna tinting your actual hair color.

I do have some gray hair around my temples. The product made it brighter and lighter. If my hair were entirely gray I would definitely use it, especially with my water issue. I think it might perk up and take the dullness out. Even if it weren't helping my color, the shampoo and conditioner are making my hair feel healthy and smooth. Good stuff!

the information is not in English, so I can't say what it is intended for. I have med thickness shaft hair, waist length, med-dark brown & grey. It has made it shine, over time it has grown without breaking or damaging, old color damage is better. For example, it used to tangle and rip and there is none of that at all any more. Smells nice, actually boyfriend likes the scent, I hadn't noticed it.

I have dark brown hair and it shows up fine. They say to use white and then the color on top of it to make it brighter. I haven't tried that but just using the desired color shows up as well.

I have color treated dark brown hair and it does not hurt the color any. If anything the system helps preserve the color and make it stand out more by removing the brassiness/orange.

I have brown hair and use this weekly. (And LOVE IT!) It is designed to remove minerals, so I would guess it is fine for all hair colors, the package just mentions itisn't for grey or white hair. You must deep condition after, it really strips your hair...
