Pre-pigmentation fixed my gray hair color woes

I was annoyed with colors fading too fast. Pre-pigmentation from a colleague's tip solved it completely.

My salon uses a 10-volume developer mixed with the target color for ten minutes before the full process. It deposits a base layer on the resistant gray strands so the final color actually sticks. For my client with 60% gray, pre-pigmenting with a copper shade stopped the color from washing out to a weird yellow in three weeks. It adds an extra step but makes the result last months longer.

Sounds tedious but totally worth it for lasting color.

Used to skip that step, but @the_adam changed my mind.
