Don't know if its just me but I'm not sure what you mean by glossing?

Do you mean a clear semi or permanent colour that adds shine to an artificial or natural colour?

Noticed a few people had viewed your post but nobody had replied back so I thought I'd ask!!!

NO BODY has answered my question.

What Is Glossing?

Is It what I thought it was or am I completely wrong?

well tell us what you think it is and we will tell you if you are wrong...LOL
Just kidding.. yes you are right. At least that is what we call glossing here in the states. A shine Treatment with Demi /Semi colour or if you have colored hair then you can add just a bit of the color also and refresh the color with shine.

Thanks for that. I feel quite smug now that I knew what it was!!! ha ha!

I know L'oreal do a clear in the Dia Colour Gelee quasi range and Goldwell do one in the Elumen range.

Ring around salons in your area and ask if they do these ranges and if they do the clear. Have to say I have never used them and have never been asked for a glossing treatment either. Not popular with our clients.

Hope thats a help to you Mixeddyme.

Actually, It is using Any color line that has a clear in it. LOL Just wanted to clarify that.
I do glossing when they come in for their roots and then put a gloss on the midshaft to ends to brighten up the color and give some shine back to it.
