What home dye is best for covering grey?

Having been fleeced by a hairdresser to apply professional hair colour, I've decided to DIY. I chose Loreal Recital which guaranteed to cover ghe grey - well it did until after 3 washes, then it has faded badly %26amp; needs doing again just 10 days later. So my question is, what product is best for coverage %26amp; non-fade? I'm trying to maintain my mid-brown colour (number 6).

What home dye is best for covering grey?

Hello, I'm a hairdresser/salon owner.. sorry yours fleeced you, there a law unto themselves eh...lol I would suggest a nice and easy colour by clairol, sells in superdrug for about a fiver.. if your a base of a six I would recommend a champagne brown or maybe a mocha.. try to avoid reds or auburn's, as they tend to catch onto the white in the grey and give an uneven coverage..(looking pink or orange).. you could always use a semi permanent colour in between root touch ups.. good luck x

I dye my hair too and John Frieda made a COlor Glaze that you put in your hair after you wash it. I really love it and it really keeps my color. Of course, I have no gray, yet, but I would give it a try after you dye it again. I know that Loreal stuff is supposed to be pretty great. Some dyes will tell you to leave on longer for stubborn grays, you may want to leave it on an extra 10-15 minutes too if you haven't tried that yet.

Good luck and if all else fails, be proud of your grays. My mom is 48 and has some gray and she's hot! I think women that age naturally are totally beautiful!

Nice and Easy is great for covering grey and it doesn't fade, only grows out.

What home dye is best for covering grey?

I started going grey at 14 and have used just about everything. I have too much grey to use semi permanents now, - I have found Belle Color to be the best dye. I use the shade called simply "Brown" lol as I don't really want auburn or anything. It covers perfectly, I use it every month to do my roots, and my hair is in good condition. I must say that I used Nice n Easy a few months ago when I couldnt get my usual dye, and my hair felt like straw, it was awful. Felt as though I had bleached my hair.

Good luck

you may need to go one shade lighter. after all, they do say that women should go lighter as they age.

failing that, nice and easy is recommended as the best, it's a brilliant stainer for lighter hair anyway.

you could also try a few fine highlights aroung the hair, especially if the grey is at the crown.
