My real colour is mid brown, I've been getting away with different deep brown permanent dye kits to cover the grey hairs, but they tend to wash out to orangeish hues which look appalling next to the emerging greys. I loathe this look and now I've got it.
One of my clients is in her sixties, and is enviously trim and petite with a dark brown bob and never a grey hair in sight; but frequent visits to Cheltenham occur, where, I suspect, lurks a prohibitively expensive colourist. I dare not enquire after the fountain of youth in this case as it would surely break the bank.
A friend told me to use semi permanent dyes as they don't wash out to orange; however they don't seem to tackle the grey very well.
Any suggestions gratefully accepted (but I'm not going blonde!)
