CoSaMo Love Your Color, No Ammonia, No Peroxide Hair Color, #765 Medium Brown (Pack of 3) Comparable to Loving Care

Cosamo Medium Brown Hair Color is rich color. It seemed to dark for me and I don’t know if I maybe left it on too long before rinsing it out. I usually use the Medium Golden Brown color. , but have tried different times the Medium Brown. I like the Cosamo brand and if I take my time and don’t rush I can do my hair without getting globs on floor or my clothes! It has enough in bottle too because seems my hair gets enough of it on and am trying to use up all of it. Overall I think it is a good product and I like the fact it has no peroxide in it.

This CoSaMo non- permanent hair color is the ONLY alternative to Clairol (shame on them for stopping making it!) Loving Care!I myself used Loving Care regularly for over 20 years. Since Loving Care was discontinued 2 years ago, I have run out of all my panic driven stash from Big Lots. So along with the thousands of other faithful LC users, we have to search the world to find something that is ammonia and peroxide free. Well, I have devoted months to my search and this is the best we can do.Cosamo is gentle, the color I used, Medium Brown is true to the picture on the box. My natural color was/is dark brown, about 2 shades darker, but is over 50% very light gray. The Cosamo color covered evenly and is easy to use as was Loving Care. I'd say the color lotion is only slightly thinner, so a tad more runny. The most noticeable difference to me is that it does not smell as nice as Loving Care. There is a slight chemical smell when first starting to apply. It tends to disapate somewhat while applying. The box includes instructions, a pair of gloves, a heat cap and the packet of 2 minute cream rinse lotion. I kept the color lotion on for 25 mins but I have over 50% color resistant gray (think brillo pad), so I'll leave it on for the full 45 mins I used to do with LC next time. It's only been 2 weeks since I applied it and I haven't noticed a lot of fading yet. LC usually went about 8-10 weeks for me, because I kept the solution on for the longer period. I had no allergic reaction to this Cosamo at all, I just noticed the stronger smell.I do recommend it as the best alternative out there now UNLESS Clairol decides to bring back our old "Standard" Loving Care again.Based on my experince with the Clairol Company of late, where literally thousands of faithful Loving Care users weren't important enough for them to maintain as a client base, I'm not holding my breath.The alternatives Clairol recommends are NOT the same as LC was at all! They all contain harsh chemicals, even Clairol "Beautiful" professional non-permanent Hair color lotion has been changed recently. The Clairol "Help-Line" is anything but... script readers mostly... Sorry to be negative, but I'm feeling the frustration all the faithful Loving Care users are facing. Hope this helps someone,So even though it's not exactly Loving Care it IS the best we can get at this time.Thank you.

Finally, a product that does not contain PPDs or PTDs. After years of torturing my hair and scalp with conventional ammonia, peroxide, PTD and PPD-laden chemical dyes, I found CoSaMo. I developed such severe allergies to both PPDs and PTDs that my ears would become highly inflamed and swollen, and the skin would break open and weep. My scalp developed scabs and lesions. My neck was always inflamed and had large red irritated bumps. Even so, I tended to stay away from rinses because they washed out so quickly and weren't all that effective at covering graying hair. My hair is probably 75% gray, but CoSaMo stays in until the next application.* By that time (3 weeks), the new pale roots are showing. * Here's a caveat: I add a small amount of Surya Henna to the Cosamo (go with the color you're using). Surya Henna brand does contain some PTD (not as bad as the PPD), but the impact of the small amount of PTD is negligible. The henna may help hold the color until the next application.

This is the very BEST! It gives a good natural color, without the harsh treatment of regular color.It is so easy to apply. I don't have much hair, so I can use one bottle three times. I do get a goodconditioner, because the conditioner that comes with CoSaMo only lasts for one treatment.Wish they would see the conditioner separately.It only lasts me about 3 weeks, but for me that is really great. The color that I got from the beauty shoplasted about the same. Of course the cost of coloring my hair now, thanks to CoSaMo, is so much less.I have been using this since September. Nothing has ever been better!!!

Blame it on Clairol for stopping manufacture of Loving Care no peroxide no ammonia hair rinse. This product is the only thing on the market to replace it. And because I am allergic to hair dye, if I want to hide the gray this is the only way. First, it doesn't last very long on me. Two weeks at best. Second the front of my hair turned a lovely shade of purple which the children I teach thought was awesome, but the other teachers I work with didn't say a word. The purple went away after another rinse, but I know it will return shortly. It always does. Third, the Clairol made my hair shiny, fuller and silkier; CoSaMo does none of those. The best it does is make my hair one color for a short time period and after the first shampoo, the gray area begins to lighten. You aren't me, so your experience might be better. I just wanted everyone to be aware of what might happen.

Good coverage of gray (I'm pretty much completely gray), nice medium brown color. Happy to have found a temporary hair color that doesn't damage hair.

Purchase for sister who loves the product. She cannot have ammonia or peroxide on her skin,

The product I'd great as far as not irritating your skin, especially if you are allergic to ppd. But the dam thing does not cover the gray. It just gives the gray hair a gold tint. I called the company to get some pointers, to see if I was applying the hair color incorrectly. I got some cocky jerk on the phone saying I have to mix the cosamo hair color with another hair color and I will get good results. But I'm allergic to ppd. I can't use another color. I had high hopes and they were shattered. My journey to find a good ppd free hair color continues.
