I used to be able to buy tinted mousse which washed out after several washings. Do any of you know if it is still available? I asked in Boots (a small local store) and the assistant said she had never seen it.

I buy mine from Amazon.
It’s a make called Indola, about a tenner a can a which lasts for ages.

I have considering using Wella Colour Fresh. I have grey hair but it is dyed a light-ish blonde. I dye it myself with Nice and Easy No. 8. The ends seem to fade quite a bit with the sun.

I haven't tried the product yet but it is a semi permanent hair mask.

I use the Wella colour fresh between visit to Hairdressers. Easy to use in the shower I just leave for about 4-5 mins or you can leave longer.
My Hairdressers uses it to tone my colour.
Good value and works fine.
Also check out shampoo's that add a bit of colour, several on the market now.

I'm going to look at WellaColour Fresh. I don't want anything permanent, no regrowth or anything. I quite like it white although underneath at the back when I put it up in a band there's all the original lovely dark colour. I went almost white in lockdown, it happened almost overnight, nothing gradual about it..

I've used Indola mousse. Tried two colours and tried mixing them together. Unfortunately it somehow wasn't right for me.

L’Oréal Age Perfect Toner for silver hair takes out the brassy tones and gives your hair a nice shine. Available from Amazon www.amazon.co.uk/LOreal-Perfect-Colour-Care-Silver/dp/B07GXYR91F/ref=asc_df_B07GXYR91F/?hvlocphy=9045882&gad_source=1&linkCode=df0&hvptwo&psc=1&hvnetw=g&mcid=edc28d49fa9834e0995f7e34ec2ce151&hvadid=696285193871&hvpone&hvlocint&hvpos&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl&hvocijid=18382298193393111244-B07GXYR91F-&hvqmt&hvexpln=74&tag=gransnetforum-21&hvtargid=pla-2281435178138&hvrand=18382298193393111244

I tried to find that L’Oréal product vegansrock after a recommendation from the Guardian beauty editor, but alas they’ve discontinued it. I asked on the L’Oréal website chat thingy. I wonder why?
I searched the shelves in all the usual places, Boots, Savers discount, supermarkets, Superdrug and it’s not to be found.
I think there are some old stock available on Amazon and the like.
There is also a Garnier version similar on there too . Not tried it yet

Thx everyone for your help. Plenty to choose from! I think I’ll try a shampoo with colour first.

NotSpaghetti Thu 11-Jul-24 16:21:37

I've used^Bleach London^ now and then. I like them better than the mousse.

vegansrock Thu 11-Jul-24 16:29:22

Granmarderby10 yes it’s hard to find but it’s still in Amazon I’m going to stock up.

I use to get one from my local health store by Henna Plus as my hair is very fine and thin so have to be careful what I use. Not sure if it's still available as my health shop has closed down now, I am sure its available online.
