I'm using Loreal Preference and my gray starts showing up after 3 shampoos, would anything else last longer? And I am using shampoo and conditioner for color treated hair.
yikes! the only other suggestion I can think of is go to a stylist one time and if the color doesn't stay. in theory it should last for a very long time, only the roots need to be touched up. if your hair is that color resistant you might want to think about a heavy highlight and let the grey show through or grow it out all together.
a heavy highlight of the lightest blondes would work, so you are only seeing about 1/8th to maybe 1/4 of the grey, that way when it does lose color it isn't so obvious.

If you are washing your hair daily, try using just condtioner only on some days & lightly warm & cool water not hot water, final rinse with super cold will give shine.
Are you allowing the initial coloring to go a full 24 hours to set color well before shampooing?
Try loreal colour expert for the add in highlights. That will give more dimension. And you can mix part to use at initial coloring and use rest a couple weeks in.
The other thing you can do is get lots of highlights before you color. Buy a separate product. The color will take in the highlights better than the gray & also help minimize grow out.
