A type of hair color that uses a low-volume hydrogen peroxide that can only deposit color or add tone to the hair would be:

• A. Temporary
• B. Permanent
• C. Semi-permanent
• D. Long-lasting semi-permanent

Answer: (D)

A color that uses a low-volume developer to deposit pigment without lifting the existing color is a deposit-only color that lasts longer than a typical temporary shade. This approach keeps the hair’s original baseline intact while adding tone and depth, and fades gradually over time because there’s little to no lifting of the natural color. That combination—depositing color with a gentle developer and extended longevity—fits the description of long-lasting semi-permanent color. Temporary colors rinse out quickly and don’t rely on a developer, while permanent colors use stronger developers to lift and recolor, which is not the case here. Demi-permanent colors use low-volume developer as well but are often described separately; the phrasing given aligns with long-lasting semi-permanent as the best match.
