It took me a little while to learn how to use Reparex but now I am on autopilot with it, using it every couple of weeks on damp hair. I keep an old dark bath towel handy and drape it over the sink to catch any drips because the enzyme in Reparex does leave a dark spot on porcelain which is hard to remove. I use Reparex on slightly damp hair and I always use the gloves that are included in the kit. I make sure I have an old shirt on (the one I used to use when dying my hair works perfectly), just to make sure I don't get drips on my good clothes. After using Reparex for over a year, I am getting pretty good at just putting a few drops on my scalp and rubbing them in with no drips, but it is a very clear and thin liquid so drips happen if you are not careful. I love this product. My goal was to not look like my hair was dyed because as a brunette with gray, when I would dye my hair, the dye would start to fade to reddish and my gray would always start to show at my scalp like a skunk stripe. With Reparex, my new look is my original hair color of brunette but with silver strands here and there but not all over. I want to look good at my age (63) and not fake. I feel like Reparex is the perfect solution because there is no evidence of dying my hair but it is obviously my real color with just a few strands of silver. It does take patience to learn this new technique. When I first told my hairdresser I was going to try this, she said she didn't believe it would work. I did start using it when my dye had grown out a couple of inches. I did not wait til all my hair was grown out, because the dyes I was using were all natural. When I went back to my hairdresser a few weeks after I started using Reparex, she said, "I can't believe it! It's working! Don't tell anyone!" haha she said this stuff might ruin the hair color industry if people found out! I hope the price doesn't go up......please!
