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 you can use it for just your roots but it pretty expensive to use that way but I do my roots first to cover the grey and then you can decide how long to leave it on the rest of your hair. I do 20 minutes on the roots and 10 on the rest but I have quite a bit of grey and I like mine a little dark. You could always do roots and then take it off of the rest of your hair after 5 minutes. Or just use it on your roots. This is the only kind of color that I have found that covers the grey and blends with the rest of my hair without the color difference. Great product for me.

I just use it on my roots-to cover the gray in between colorings.-but I would guess it would cover long strands of grey. Hope this helps..

Hi, I don't know how long it takes to completely wash out but I retouch my roots with a temporary color after each shampoo with a different brand of course. So unless you are using it at each shampoo I believe your normal gray will return.

If you want to cover grey, I would suggest doing a darker color (try to match your original color), and mix in the copper. I use a whole bottle of golden brown and about 1/3 to half a bottle of copper.

No - elumen isnt meant to cover gray. You'd have to cover your roots first with a permanent color then apply elumen all over. Just know that elumen is best on clean, dry hair. So do your roots then apply elumen possibly following day/night. I've used elumen for almost ten years now. If you follow the entire process with lock and wash, it's a fantastic line. It's a direct dye. Good luck!

If applied for less than the recommended 10 minutes it would leave more grey than intended if the product was used correctly. This product is not intended to blend in the grey. If used correctly it is the best product on the market for eliminating grey.

The medium brown does cover my gray on the sides and hair line pretty well, but you have to leave it on for min of 20 minutes or even more. I even use it to get rid of the gray in my eyebrows. It doesn't contain any ammonia or peroxide , so it is does not last long. If you wash your hair everyday, then you will need to apply or at least touch up about every two weeks. If less often, a month. I love it because it is gentle and does not go bad if you do not use all of it at once. It lasts for a long time for touch ups. It comes right out of th ebottle..................no mixing.

Personally, I wouldn't use it on 75% gray. It does cover gray, however it is a very strong dye.

I used black for my full size F350, it required a gallon and 1 quart. I would expect the same coverage from gray. GREAT stuff by the way!

I don't dilute it, I paint it directly on with a fan brush and leave it on for as long as I can stand it. When I first started using it, that was one minute or so. Now my skin can handle leaving it on for 3 or 4 minutes. Then rinse it off with really cold water until it doesn't burn anymore, and I usually put a cold washcloth in the freezer for a few minutes and hold that on my face afterwards too.

Depends on the temperature, which should be 70 degrees or greater. 12 hrs or overnight usually does it. It turns light gray then go over it with a fine scotchbrite pad, blow it off and prime & paint.

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.

After shampooing and conditioning hair. Wring out excess water from hair. Apply color glaze with gloves. Saturate hair with product and leave on for at least 15 minutes. Rinse and use styling products as usual. I've been using this for over 10 years and always get great results. Can use everytime you wash but probably not more than a couple times a week. People compliment me on the color of my hair all the time. It covers the gray and adds a auburn shade to my hair color. Just love it.

No I do not I only use one ounce to 1 1/2 ounce of developer to cover my gray and leave for 45 min. Depends how much hair you have I am only covering my roots. If long hair maybe half the tube

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.

I apply this after I shower. Make sure you are completely dry as random droplets will mar your color. Hold the can about 12-15 inches away and spray continuously, moving the can in long sweeping arcs. I've done it enough now that I'm able to get even coverage, but when I first started using it, I would smooth the product over my skin (with a gloved hand--or it will stain your palm). It sometimes takes a couple of days application to get a perfectly balanced tan.
