My husband has grey (nearly white) and needs a temporary brownish haircolor for a stage play. Will this product work?

My hair is now more gray than not, and when I use the Fawn color it looks more ash blonde. Perhaps the darkest brown would work better for this purpose.

not enough for totally gray. I would get the spray on color. It totally covers and washes out. I can't remember the name but most salons carry those spray on colors

Absolutely! Washes right out. I use it 'between' beauty shop visits to cover grey. Does great!
633116
Yes it would. It covers my white and perfectly matches the rest of hair color.

I have SOME grays and this product works to cover them in between hair coloring. I do not have enough gray/white to definitely say this should work but for the price it seems it should be worth giving it a try. I'd agree with a previous poster who suggests the darker color for all gray. Hope this helps.

probably need a darker color...I have blonde hair (dyed) and I use it to take out brassiness....doesn't get real dark...but the darker shades will

It works well for me I am a 70 year old member of a classic rock band I first would use it when we went on stage to preform. To remove the grey it looked so good everyone said I should use it all the time so now every time I wash my hair I recolor my hair. It takes a little practice to get it even. Try it if you do not like the results add more if you cannot achieve the results you want it washes right out.

hello, what you need to do is, first determine what color you want to be... if you have grey or white roots, make sure you pick a natural color , like for instants.. natural brown , light natural blond.. use 20%peroxide... so mix 2 ounces of peroxide to one tube of the color with this product,,, if you need more info just ask me what you need to know.. i am actually a hair dresser and i have used this for yrs and it does have excellent coverage.... i also use other shades to mix with the natural color, meaning you need other tubes of accent color to mix with with your color for a more natural look... i hope i did not confuse you... hello, what you need to do is, first determine what color you want to be... if you have grey or white roots, make sure you pick a natural color , like for instants.. natural brown , light natural blond.. use 20%peroxide... so mix 2 ounces of peroxide to one tube of the color with this product,,, if you need more info just ask me what you need to know.. i am actually a hair dresser and i have used this for yrs and it does have excellent coverage.... i also use other shades to mix with the natural color, meaning you need other tubes of accent color to mix with with your color for a more... » Read More hello, what you need to do is, first determine what color you want to be... if you have grey or white roots, make sure you pick a natural color , like for instants.. natural brown , light natural blond.. use 20%peroxide... so mix 2 ounces of peroxide to one tube of the color with this product,,, if you need more info just ask me what you need to know.. i am actually a hair dresser and i have used this for yrs and it does have excellent coverage.... i also use other shades to mix with the natural color, meaning you need other tubes of accent color to mix with with your color for a more natural look... i hope i did not confuse you... « Show Less

That, I am not sure about. I imagine it would just lighten the grey but it probably wouldn't make it blonde. Just my guess, though.

Yes it will absolutely work! I bought one of these for me, and I have gray hair. It works perfectly. I also bought one for my daughter and she has very fine hair, it works perfectly for her, as well. You will love it!!! We both use it on the highest setting, too, with no problems.

It is used to remove yellowing of grey hair. It probably will not lighten brown hair

I'm medium-brown skinned with black hair and it works great for me. It's taking longer than they estimated, but great. I think the instructions and the website says that it may not work on grey hair that well, but definitely check because I'm not well versed in that area. Good luck!

Yes it will ! I has a sort of an uneven and a brassy brown and orangy colored hair and this is the first time my hair looks blonde, hope thia helps !

grey hair actually holds the colors as well. Its your natural hair color now. So it will hold.

Probably not. It works by zapping pigment like melanin in the hair folicle. Blonde hair has little to no dark pigment so you'll end up just zapping your skin and probably causing irritation.

When I spoke to a company rep she said it was better on grey hair. The company does have an 800 number if you want to clarify. I called because I wanted to lighten/brighten my winter natural blonde hair and I didn't see any results.

Hi-I'm sorry, but I have no idea why it won't work on gray hair. My daughter and I both have blonde hair. Her's is a lighter blonde and it appears to lighten her hair due to all of the build-up it removes. My hair is more of a dirty blonde and while it helps my hair just as well, I don't have the appearance that my hair is lighter after I use it.

Tim,I just sent you an answer that I thought you might need, but I may have misunderstood the quesstion. If you want to cover some gray hair and want to match your hair color, then go the the store that handles Roux product and look at their samples to see if they might match your hair color. If not then go to your hair stylist and ask what color that you need. Betty

I'm sure it won't do anything for brown. This shampoo just brightens non-pigmented hair. It does say that it will brighten grey hair, so I imagine it would make it silvery. If your hair is grey and brown mixed, it would probably work with the grey only.

Yes, that is why I started using it. The gray hairs look a tiny bit lighter than the rest of my hair, but it makes my hair look naturally weaved. My hair is naturally a mousey brown, and this product adds a lot of richness to the color. I really like using it.

The initial answer is no, however if it is a dark grey as opposed to a whiter hair it might work. The laser targets the pigment in your hair (a reason why they don't suggest using this for darker skin tones). I had professional treatments. I have medium skin tone, mostly dark hair, a couple dark greys and blonde fuzz. Even professional treatment left most of my blonde fuzz, I saw a good reduction in my dark hair (I mean 10%) and some greys went away. In all honesty, if you have mostly grey hair this product may be a shot in the dark. Most reviews and the product manual suggest its not for grey hair. If you have the money to spend and can give it the length of the 60-90 days (depending on where you purchase) sure try it. If not, its a big leap for a maybe. Let me know what you do.

Sorry, but I can only give advise on grey or white hair. I think that is basically what this product is intended for. It more or less takes out the yellowing and gives your hair more shine, which I personally know is true. You may have to contact the manufacturer about your question. Sorry I can't help.

From my experience it should be enough. But few things to note: 1. Check on a small patch. I did an initial mistake for similar thing which turned to different color. 2. I bleached that spot completely and applied. It worked for me. ( I am not an expert, but worked :) for me) 3. Let the trail part completely dry to see the difference, while applying it might look light and it gets darker. 4. Trying color in cotton swab and on material was different from my experience. As the cotton was pure white, but applying it on existing color it was different. ( basic thing on color combination but I went wrong with it initially and hence adding it) HTH.. Good luck
