Is peroxide needed to color unwanted gray hair? f Hair care and beauty experts know that the first traces of gray hair—and even slight fading of natural color after chemical re laxing—can dull a woman's appearance and make her look older than she feels. While most women hate these premature aging effects, many are hesitant about using permanent perox.de haircoloring which may change the natural hair color while coloring gray. Professionally-trained hairdressers know the importance of their customers' preferences when unwanted gray becomes a problem. These experts also know that Clairol created semi permanent Loving Care" hair color lotion without peroxide . . . to color only the gray without changing the natural shade. They also find Loving Care biends back color faded by chemical processing. Because of its mildness, Loving Cara maintains healthy looking hair 3,nd lasts through a month of shampoos. Whatever a woman's reason for wanting Loving Care for her hair, she is always wise to consult a professional beautician. Hairdressers are equipped with a family of fine Clairol products and the training to promise each patron the loveliest and most personalized haircoloring effects every time she visits her salon. If you dislike gray, and want no peroxide, why not ask your beautician to glamorize it with Loving Care? ipClairol Inc. 1967 Courtesy of Clairol Inc. for the past 4 weeks.
