I've been hearing about this for quite a while but have never used it...am I right in thinking that unlike efesor you can get it on natural colour and it won't effect it? And it removes built up colour also?

 

[Sarahjayne]

Yes thats the one im yet to try it on very very dark hair say a 2/3 but so far i am chuffed and has left the three ladies that ive used it on so far such glossy and soft hair ...it did leave it warm and took them to about an 8 and afterwards applied a semi ash on and was gorgeous they do suggest that you go two shades lighter for target shade which i did with the one lady and turned out to a 6 so i was please ..she then had foils of gentle bleach (i was very carefull stopping every 5-10 mins checking them ) and like i say her hair looked fab

I agree rusk eliminate is amazing I've had great results with it too! The only thing is step 3 is a bit confusing can anyone explain that bit to me!

Tillie i decided not to follow step 3 as when i stripped my daughters colour it went straight to her target shade but reading the instructions it actualy appeared to be an importance and really quite silly of me as i remember it being drilled into us at college to follow manufactures instructions !
The point of step 3 was once you shampooed the 1 and 2 out u then apply the step 3 as you would perm solution to the curlers ! as this then shows the hairs state i.e if not completly stripped the hair will go back to dark and you have to follow the first two steps again ...i didnt follow step 3 the first time and thought wow this is great her hair is great but by the morning she had the darkness back ....instructions also state that if you run out of step 3 you can use any 10 vol peroxide so i am assuming that this softens the hair for the next col application and ensures the colour gets right into the cuticle :o next day i applied again and used step 3 and results are great

ok im up for giving that ago, just hope they sell it in capital

 

[Sarahjayne]

Pixilee i dont think capital will do it because im sure rusk is sold through sallys only ? also ive just done a col correction on a lady with 3 /4 artificial col and the elin8 took her to about a 7/8 GINGER colour so ive applied an 8/1 as a semi and its turned out about a 6/7 so shes chuffed lol ...just thought id let you know x
