box o hair color

I did it. I couldn't get to the salon. My hair was dull and gray.
I did the Loreal Creme..$7..not bad.

It didn't get a few greys but overall, nice color saturation and shine. My hair feels good too.

...the best part is that my bathroom is still the same color.Chat Icon

So the next time I think I need to go level 3..this was level 2. Will I get more gray coverage with a higher level?

Re: box o hair color

how long did you leave it in? You have to leave it in for a really long time and make sure you really saturate the hair.. I always needed 2 boxes for my hair and I would always leave it in for an hour or more and I don't have any greys (that I know of because I've dyed my hair for so long loL) but because my hair needed longer to soak it up.

Re: box o hair color

It said 10 mins. 15 minutes for a lot of gray. I don't have a lot..just stubborn ones I guess.

I tried to get every strand covered.

I didn't buy a cheap box to be cheap it just seemed idiot proof so there ya go.

I will try again next week maybe. I really like the color. It won't last as long as the salon but at $7..who cares?

Should I try a level up?

Honestly, the best hair color I've used is the actually cheapest one out there.. Revlon Colorsilk.. but you have to leave it in for a while.. it's only like 3 bucks!

what did you get? the semi permanent?

Re: box o hair color

you cant lift hair color with hair color. your new growth will be a level 3...but what you previously colored will stay a level 2 unless you do a color correction

ok..well the grays that didn't get enough color were right at the root. I was looking for a color deposit not lightening.

I used Loreal Excellence Creme. The 10 minute one.

Medium Golden Brown.
