Will this cover the new gray hai. U also wish to lessen the gold tone in the longer length of my hair. I do not want it to look too gray .??

this toner doesnt really "cover," so it will only neutralize your gray. it will very much lessen the gold! it might be a little on with light gray/ platinum side depending on what color hair your starting with

It will look gray at first but then in a couple days it fades to a white platinum blonde.

i used it on newly bleached hair and it helped turn it into a beautiful silvery white color instead of orange so it will probably just make the hairs lighter

Patricia, usually a lighter color will not cover a darker color, however it will lighten it a little bit. The Surya brasil golden blond covers my light gray hair and actually darkens the darker gray/red hair, but it all blends nicely and looks good. Hope this helps.

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!

yes, it will definitely tone it down and make a bit darker. this saved my hair several times in situation like yours.

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

Actually, I'm out of it now and am using the "enhancing" shampoo which is golden color, and which I don't like as much. The Sheer Blonde Color Renew conditioner I have is purple, so I'm pretty sure the shampoo is, too.

Well, yes and no. It's better than nothing, but doesn't cover as well as the Joan Rivers product which costs ten times more.I have medium brown hair and it makes the gray a little less noticeable. It's a little tricky to use...the powder is fine and doesn't really absorb into the hair too well, so use it sparingly-layer it on a little at a time. Hope this helps.

The medium brown does cover gray but it matters how many times a week you wash your hair as to how long it will last. Mine lasts about 4-5 weeks but it has made my fine hair much thicker feeling. I wish I had started using this product 10 years ago. The lack of ammonia and peroxide will keep your hair on your head, where it belongs, and not on your brush or in the sink!

I just splat a whole bit of it on top over my wet hair after I shampoo and comb it through. Most of it washes out after the first shampoo. I just repeat. The color I'm using is close to my own color . . . it pretty much just covers the gray for me . . . nothing too dramatic.

My hair is color treated with dark n lovely Golden Bronze and I used it. Please see my review under the name Tiffany M. White, I have a lot of information about what I did. Its been 3 weeks, I think since I put the texturizer in my hair. Hair looks great, its shiny, but I still have a bit of shrinkage.

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.

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.

At first...just like any other hair color or dye. You have to put it on thick anyway, and it won't stain your hair line as you would think of the traditional henna (I based my hairline with vaseline to protect it anyway), so just remember to apply it thick to cover your gray - like mud!! It's worth it if you are trying to move away from chemicals. The color is subtle at first, but is vibrant as time goes on and especially in natural light. I do find however, that the gray does come thru the color - it's very strong - and if you use the auburn, your gray will look kind of orangey after a while. At least mine did!

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)

Sorry I really couldn't say. My hair is all natural platinum (notice I did not say silver or gray:-)

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.

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.
