What's Gray Magic?
Gray Magic is a haircoloring additive that is formulated to allow the haircolorist to adequately cover gray hair and make colors last longer.

Why does Gray Magic work?
Gray hair is the result of the loss of red and yellow color pigment. Gray Magic adds concentrate red and yellow with wetting agents to replace the lost color pigment and moisture, to "lock-in" hair color.

Why is Gray Magic effective on covering resistant gray hair?
The loss of red and yellow, and the cuticle being very close to the cortex (preventing penetration of color) are factors of resistant gray hair. Gray Magic mixed with color and peroxide will lift the cuticle away from the cortex, allowing penetration. When color is then applied superior coverage is obtained, and up to 90% absorption of hair color.

Why does Gray Magic downplay green tones?
Most of the manufactured ash tone hair colors contain the blue and yellow. Green is the result of blue and yellow. Gray Magic adds the third primary color, resulting in a neutral blend of blue, yellow and red.

Can I add Gray Magic to Loving Care and other "non peroxide" colors?
Definitely YES. Gray Magic was formulated with wetting agents which allow it to be mixed with any "non peroxide" color.

Would I add Gray Magic to a temporary rinse?
NO! Temporary rinse merely coat the cuticle. Gray Magic would enter the cortex and be in direct conflict with rinse.

Can Gray Magic be mixed with Unred and Gold Magic?
Yes! Gray Magic is compatible with ALL colors and ALL additives.

Will Gray Magic speed up or slow down processing?
No! When using Gray Magic in the formula continue with your usual technique and timing.

No more gray
Reviewer: Jackie from Palm Coast, Florida   2008-02-15

I used this product for the first time and it was wonderful. It covered my hard to cover gray and I do use a blonde haircolor and it did wonderful. I was nervous at first with the color of the product, but it did work!!!!!

It is Magic in a Bottle!
Reviewer: Pam from Southern California   2008-02-10

I absolutely love this product! Unfortunately I have resistant grays and dark hair, and the decolorization mark was driving my batty. My hairdresser friend suggested adding this to my bottled haircolor and viola! No more marks, my color lasts longer, and I can get my gray hair as dark as I want them to get!

Had high hopes...
Reviewer: Maria   2007-09-28

Thought this was the answer, but alas...no. Great if you color your hair some weird shade of eggplant. Definitely not for any blondes.

Gray Magic helped me
Reviewer: mary duncan from College Pt., NY   2007-02-12

My color lasted a full month instead of two weeks. You can also use it to concentrate around the hairline.

Don't bother
Reviewer: Debbie from New York   2006-11-20

This did not work well at all. Not only did it not help cover the grey, it did not help it to last longer either.
