I have hard to cover gray hair, and have used Clairol, Revlon, and L'Oreal to cover it. I have never had a problem with them, but I don't like using any more chemicals than necessary, so I was looking for a more natural alternative. I had decent results with the Light Mountain, but be prepared for an ordeal requiring lots of time and mess. The box contains two bags of powder, instructions and rubber gloves. You need to have distilled water, glass or plastic mixing bowls, and a way to get the gloop onto your hair. I did not do the recommended strand test, which would have required a lot more time, and I still spent several hours. You need to mix the powders with boiling water and let them cure for an hour. Wash your hair. Apply gloop 1. I tried squeezing it through a hole in a Ziploc baggie, but I think just scooping up handfuls of it works as well. This process was a big mess in and around the sink, but I rinsed it all right away, and my sink was not stained. Then you put on a plastic shower cap, and keep your hair warm with a hair dryer while you wait to see a color change. I guess this wouldn't be so bad if you had one of those beauty salon dryers that you sit under, but using a blow dryer was a pain. Then you rinse it out. I went in the shower to do this. It is hard to rinse out, and the shower stall was covered in it. You repeat basically the same process with gloop 2, with the same mess in the sink and shower. I was happy with my hair when I was finished. I started seeing a lot of gray 3 to 4 weeks later, which is what also happens with other products I've used. I like the natural aspect of it, but don't know that I'm willing to deal with the time and mess it takes.Click Here to see more reviews about: Light Mountain Natural Color The Gray Hair Color & Conditioner, Medium Brown, 7 oz (197 g) (Pack of 2)
