I found a "deposit only" color by clairol, it did have peroxide in it which scared me a bit. I got light natural blonde shade, not an ash or gold shade, but a neutral. I applied it to chunks of hair, but not all over, I timed it as they said to, then I combed it all through to blend it a bit, then immediately washed it. It looks a lot better, in fact I love the color, but however to achieve this color again after all this hair went through! The bad haircut, in fact, looks 100% better. My hair has shine and it looks like someone infused gold into it, but not brassy, orangey or yellowlike, just a nice natural shade. Some of the old light color is mixed in. It feels healthier. Amen.Now, how do I prevent this "deposit only" color from washing out? Will I be able to re apply it in a month or so? I think my roots will look a lot less obvious witht his color on. I wouldeventually like to switch back to highlights only...every 3-4 months, when will it be safe to do that again? I am going to search hi and low for a good color expert, so i will tell them what I did with my hair and have them do a strand test! Just curious of what to do until then. Thank you for all of your help.

Amen.To Upset;I am glad that the deposit only color did the trick for you! To prolong the life, use a for 'colored only shampoo' and conditioner, and try to refrain from shampooing any more than ness. I really like Redken "shades shampoo in the right shade to match your hair." This will accentuate and help keep your color. The great thing about deposit only colors is that as they 'wear' they do not leave a harsh color demarcation line. In the case of your hair this will be more noticeable because of the previous color, but still plenty acceptable. Also you can reproduce your color when it fades by 'refreshing the color' and timing it slightly shorter to reproduce the same effects. (There will still be some of the 'deposit only' pigments left. william> Now, how do I prevent this "deposit only"> color from washing out? Will I be able to re apply it> in a month or so?
