I get colour and highlights done as in the first (green) pic which was straight after colouring (doesn't show the highlights much in the photo, but blond highlights). But within a week it looks as blonde as straw like in the second (blue) pic. Is the base colour just not holding? I used to think it was swimming/chlorine but not this time. My natural colour is grey. I'm wondering if I am just wasting my money. Pics to follow, if the app will let me attach, which it isn't colouring.
