Is this the grey that was originally covered up ? if it is it sounds as though you did not have a permanent colour put in and you need to get a permanent colour.

if it's not the above it your regrowth of new hair, it sounds as though your hair grows quite quick.

my mom has the same problem. sometimes she will use mascara to fill in the Grey.(in between her bi-weekly dye job) as she has dark hair, but ya she complains about it all the time. Bummer, hope you find something...oh maybe your using shampooo that is stripping the dye more quickly, try using shampo for chemically treated hair...

Are the hairdressers using a semi permanent or permanent colour? Semi permanent will not last long at all. To be honest, I am finding the same problem and have permanent colour - it's an ongoing battle!! Lots of my friends have gone lighter so the grey doesn't show so much!

Hi

My hair grows really fast and I am quite grey at the front.

I have to have it couloured every 2 weeks I do my roots myself and am quite adept at it!

I have tried highlights but looks like nice streaked hair with grey roots! I have gone lighter to make it less obvious but my natural coulor was dark brown so cannot go too light.

For me there was no answer except go grey or colour regularly.

Firstly, are you a he or she ?? He...well I bet you bought

the wrong dye, so go professional !!! SHE.. well, either

you have made the same mistake as 'he' (you must

check the permenance of the dye, some wash out after

to or three washes !) or you did not cover and leave

as long as you should... there are a lot of good products

out there if you cannot afford proffesional care, just

READ THE INFO !!! good luck

Hi no it should not be growing through unless you have hair that grows really fast, which I think is unlikely the most hair grows is 1cm per month. Maybe your getting it coloured just as the hair grows, or the dyes they are using is not enough to cover the grey you have. I find hair dressers not that good either, They tend to do what they want to your hair not the other way round. You will save alot of money not going to them. I would try using a home dye, Like garnier Nutiresse. If you leave these on for at least 40 mins you will get execellent coverage, If you have noone to do it for you, its easy to do yourself, but I recommend you get 2 boxes, if you have thick or long hair you will need 2 anyway in the same colour, but if you havent this is just to make sure you wont miss anywhere if you do it on your own as if you have two there will be plenty to cover each strand of hair. If you get the same results your grey showing through within a week then it could just be youur hair is resiliant to hair dye, But I think you should be ok with doing it with home dyes. Maybe the hairdresser hasnt covered all your grey properly to start off with.

If they are not help full dont use them anymore, and if you dont want to risk doing it yourself at home, then find another hairdresser. Its worth a try doing at home first, see if you get the result you want. You can always get your roots retoouched at the hair dressers.

What shampoo do you use? Head and shoulders drains the colour out of your hair.

I suggest you go with the advice from Zelhasta, which was 3 hours ago. She is right. I'm guessing you are a woman with the same problems as I've had. I colour my own hair these days. It's not that bad and you soon get used to it, plus it's cheaper and you can do it when you want and not have to wait for an appointment. I use a semi permanent colour because I'm on steroid for a health problem and permanent colours aren't advised as they could make my hair fall out. I have very thick, strong hair, so it's difficult to colour and I need to use two bottles. Semi permanents usually last about 3 weeks with me. I colour just the white areas first and leave the colour on for 20 minutes. Then I cover the whole lot including the already coloured areas and leave for around 30 minutes - it does advise this in the instructions and I use Clairol Nice N Easy, non-permanent, by Loving Care lasts 6 - 8 shampoos. Always choose a colour just slightly lighter than your own as it will generally end up darker than shown on the box. In the weeks afterwards use a colour protecting shampoo and condition like Alberto VO5 Fade defy - these will help your colour to last a little longer. Also remember, if you wash your hair everyday, the colour will soon fade anyway. Hope this helps.

I have a similar issue. i am about 70% grey and within a week or so I notice my regrowth. I do my hair at home with professional colour.

If it regrowth, the only thing you can do is do a touch up at home as often as needed. Get a tint brush and only apply to the re growth though. I do this every 3 weeks.

If the grey is breaking through on areas that were coloured over it could be 3 things. 1 semi permanent colour, 2. your shampoo (make sure to use a special shampoo for colour treated hair, NOT a cleansing shampoo, I find Nexxus botanoil to be great) 3. your colour mixture, in order to ensure grey coverage you must have some of your natural shade in the colour mix. I use 2:1 red to my natural dark brown.

to make your colour last, do not wash it for at least 2 - 3 days after you've had it coloured.

it sounds like the hair dye is not strong enough for your hair type tell your hairdresser to use a different volume
