this review title is: hairdresser in a box and the content is: as usual my hairdresser left me in the lurch and canceled my touch up i was not happy as i was leaving for a trip with some important meetings the next day i could live without the cut but not the roots in desperation i purchased this product and boy was i pleased the kit comes with directions the usual skimpy gloves a small bottle of color and activator it mixes easily the sponge applicator provides good control the product sits for ten minutes fifteen if you have hard to color hair or alot of gray rinse out shampoo and style initially i was concerned that the color was too dark but it was great blended beautifully with my expensive salon color it looked as good as what i get at the salon and without the attitude and expense recommended.there are other information for this review, one is this reviewer did not purchase it and the other is 2 people think this review is helpful.
