What type of hair coloring is designed to last 4-6 shampoos?

  1. Temporary rinses

  2. Semi-permanent dyes

  3. Permanent dyes

  4. Bleach

The correct answer is: Temporary rinses

Temporary rinses are a type of hair coloring that are designed to last for a short period of time, typically 4-6 shampoos. This option is correct because it specifically mentions the desired duration for the color to last. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because semi-permanent dyes are meant to last longer than 4-6 shampoos, permanent dyes are meant to last until they grow out, and bleach is not a type of hair coloring but rather a chemical used to lighten hair.
