I’ve been using it for over 8 years. I don’t want to use anything permanent. I’ve never washed it out because I keep using it before that happens. This doesn’t have ammonia in it. I wish I could remember the name of something I tried before this. It was a famous brand. I hated it. I couldn’t wait to wash it all the way out, and it was supposed to stay on for 45 minutes. This is much quicker. I usually leave it on for about 15 minutes and love it. I wish I would have started using it long ago.

They have done the same thing to me, and mine weren’t swear words, either.
