I have had my share of hair coloring nightmares....my hair has turned lavender, pink and color crayon grey. My last disaster was much like yours. First let me say I use Loreal Feria or Excellence...have for many years. My friend told me about John Frieda's new color, which is also a pump but not bubbles...it is a foam. I loved how it went on and my hair felt so good as I was rinsing it out. Sadly, it turned my hair 3 shades darker with streaks of color crayon grey running through it. I called John Frieda, and she told me to use Dawn on my hair. I shampooed it 3 times and the grey went away and the shade lightened up a little. I waited 1 week...which is what you should wait before coloring again...and colored with my Feria. All was good except my hair felt damaged. I went to the salon and had a conditioning treatment put in. I was telling the girl there about my experience and she said, "I refuse to color anyone's hair that uses Loreal products." I was shocked...she explained that Loreal puts something in their color that only chemically works with THEIR OWN color. So, if you use a different brand on top of your Loreal, it is likely you will get a bad outcome. You can mix Loreal products, but even a professional color will not come out right. She told me the chemical, and it has the word salt in it...I forget now... was not so much hurtful to the body (no more than any other color) but it would produce a chemical reaction with other colors without that chemical. I found that interesting. I guess we will stay with Loreal whether we want to or not! LOL

I also only use L'Oreal excellence creme. I quit using it about a year ago. I started getting a blonde spray on and just spraying bits here and there to cover the gray and give a little highlight to my hair. It washes or combs out, so there's nothing to worry about.

I'm sorry you had trouble. Hopefully you can get it fixed soon.
Blessings!

So glad you posted this...I am a L'Oreal fan too. Now I will never switch! I recently used the one with the comb-type applicator for the bottle top and liked it very much. Fast and not messy.

Oh, how terrible! It makes you wonder how they stay in business if their products are so lousy! I hope your hair can be fixed soon. Maybe wear a fun hat for the next few weeks?

That is such a bummer. I know you'd pay more, but would you be able to see a hairdresser to help with it? I used Loreal excellence creme for many years and was very satisfied. I decided to go ahead and let my hair do it's natural thing without completely covering it anymore. I do have a great gal who is working with me on low-lights as I get more of the 'inevitable'.
Hope you can get it fixed.
