COLORCHARM Demi Permanent Hair Color - Gloss, Refresh & Tone - 2 Fl Oz

I’ve been using this for several years now and it is easy to use and colors my hair perfectly. It saves me a lot of money as it is very expensive to go to the salon and have your hair colored.I usually buy it at Sally’s, but they never have my color there. I found this on Amazon and use the subscribe and save to get it every six weeks. I am able to get my color every time delivered right to my house. I would definitely recommend this product and the subscribe and save allows you to get and color your hair on a schedule.

I use 5N with a 10 vol creme developer, mixing 1:1, and it effectively covers my grey hair without needing touch-ups more often than permanent haircolor.My line of demarcation, when I can see new growth, looks more blended than it did with permanent color with 20 vol developer. Parts of my hair are nearly 100% grey now, and I have found that mixing 1:1 rather than 2:1 works best for me.My hair is less damaged since changing to this product. I always thought I needed ammonia in permanent haircolor to cover all my grey, but I don't. This blends it all with dimension. It doesn't look harsh and unnatural, like shoe polish, as some darker shades on an older person can.I'm in my 50s and started going grey at 14, so I've tried a lot of different things over the years. This is the answer for me. I'll use this from now on, as long as I have hair.

First time ordering and using this demi color product, color 5N. A review stated the color of this brand develops slightly darker, accurate. The touchups were on point and matched the rest of the hair color. The box directions were helpful, use 1:2 ratio of 1 part hair dye to 2 parts developer 10 then let develop for 20 minutes after application. At around the minute 8 mark, the color started to really show, I wiped any brown dye on the skin with water. Also used the Wella post color treatment, worth the extra couple of dollars. No frizz, no evidence of hair coloring. Always start lighter then go darker. Have fun and trust the process.

A nice change from permanent hair color .lasts the same amount of time with less damage and no lune if demarcation. I dont have much gray and have been using permanent at home dye shades too dark. This shade color charm 5 in neutral brown is perfect for me. I add burgundy highlights. I recommend.

I started with a “cherry Coke” color.Then I used color oops.10days later I did my first bleach bath (1:1:1, bleach wella bleach powder, 20 vol, and shampoo), 48 hours after that I did my second bleach bath (the photo provided is after both bleach baths)…Then 24 hours after that I used the T14 (with 20 vol) and the photo provided was the outcome.I wasn’t happy with the uneven colors and the brass still left behind. So I purchased the Wella demi permanent 8N.48 hours after the toner I used the 8N with 10 vol for 20 minutes.I’m happy with the color now.

I couldn't be happier with the outcome! I tried some other brands that maybe were a dollar or 2 cheaper but I should've just ordered Wella in the first place. Color came out just as expected, looks great!

For those who don't want to read a novel (although I suggest you do since I know these were not fully beginner mistakes): Very messy application, color is patchy after thorough application, color lasted worse than a semi permanent dye, lifted roots in a weird wayFor those who want to understand the full issue: This color is a mess in so many ways, the inconsistency between the different colors is insane. I have tried 6g, 7wg, 7rr, and 5rr and I can't say I've been pleased with any of them. The 6g and 7wg are probably the better of the ones I've tried, since they stayed pretty good, but the 7wg faded horribly fast for me. The 6g didn't really budge (I only kept the color for around 2 weeks) and when I bleached my hair (I should have used a color remover but I didn't) my hair turned a nasty orange so be aware of that, that's most likely due to the golden undertones. For the red shades, I know they fade fast because that is the nature of the hair color and molecules but these reds faded too fast, I've used semi permanents that have lasted significantly longer than this. I tried to mix 7wg, 5rr, and 7rr, and got a gorgeous Auburn color but after ONE wash in super cold water, literally all of the color rinsed out. I thought it was maybe my bleached hair that caused the color to not stick (I FILLED the hair beforehand so the starting shade was 1-2 levels lighter than my final goal shade) but even on my healthy roots, the color is gone. Bare in mind I'm not clueless on hair color so I used special sulfate and paraben/ color safe shampoo and that still happened. The application process was also way too messy, this new formula is significantly more liquidy so if you can, use a bottle for application and be prepared to clean up a lot. The color runs a ton but that's to be expected with red shades. Red dye generally does fade faster and run a lot, because of the larger dye molecules, but this was excessive for a demi permanent shade. Lastly, I like to oversaturate my hair and do very small sections so I KNOW I don't miss any spots so with this hair color, I used 2 1/2 tubes of color and the corresponding amount of developer (I measured everything) and did my very small sections and cross checked as I usually do when I apply color. The color came out patchy in some areas and looked like I didn't saturate or section enough, which I know I didn't do. Again, that could be due to my bleached hair and uneven porosity but the patchiness happened in areas other than my "problem area" or super porous area. Also I fully understand 10 volume developer can have some lifting capabilities but now that the color has washed out, my roots are not the same color they were before, which makes this the most bizarre experience I have ever had with a demi permanent color. I've used other brands in the past and my natural color stayed the same but that's not the case with this stuff.I've never gambled before but this hair color truly feels like I did. I've now wasted $35, all of my Sally's rewards, and a lot of time trying to make this stuff work but it never did. I highly DO NOT RECOMMEND this hair color! If you have light enough natural hair or bleached hair and use semi permanent dye, yes it could wash out fast but compared to this demi permanent color, it would be more worth it since there's no developer, less damage. What ever you do, I would stay away from this garbage.***Final thoughts: This demi permanent color behaves a lot like a semi permanent color (running and fading fast) but in my experience, way worse. Please keep all of these things in mind if you decide to purchase, you are putting developer in your hair, damaging your hair, for a subpar result. I have experience and there's always room to learn, but this was unlike any other color I have used.***

My hair has been fragile due to menopause, so I was looking for an alternative that would be kinder to my greying, thinning hair. This demi color is perfect for what I need. Used with the Color Charm Developer Volume 20. Very pleased with the color, coverage, and how long the color lasts (6 weeks). Will definitely use again in place of permanent hair color. Also, no harsh roots--just a natural fade of color, which stretches the length of time that I need to color.
