Yes I admit it I am going grey. I coloured my hair recently using Naturtint hair colour. Naturtint make a range of 24 Permanent Hair Colorants, from Ebony black ,chestnut reds through to Blondes. It is also possible to mix these colours to get your own individual shade
. My hair is not a vibrant colour its a greying mouse brown. Since this was the first time I was using this brand of hair dye I decided to play safe and a I chose hazel nut blonde. they don't do mouse brown.
I bought my pack from a health store. I think you should be able to buy it from health shops chemists and on line too , one site selling is http://www.herbsgardenshealth.com.
I paid £9 for a bottle of this colour. It is more expensive than others I have used in the past .., but I think I have developed an allergy to one of the other hair dyes and bored with being grey decided to test this one .
This dye is packaged in a green card box and has a picture of a ladies head with long hair . In the shop was a display card with strands of hair of the different colours. This did help me choose the colour I wanted.
I did an allergy test by putting a small amount of colour on my skin just by my ear. I left this for 2 days checked it , no problem so set to to dye my hair.
I opened the box and found 2 bottles the large one contained the colour developer the small one the hair colorant. There was an instruction sheet too.
If you have short hair you do not need to use the whole bottles full. They last a long time. My hair is long well past my shoulders. I wondered if one box would be enough. ( it was)
First I brushed my hair then I mixed the colour and developer in the applicator bottle shook it fairly well. I put on the rubber/plastic gloves that are provided and then I applied the colour as evenly as I could to my dry hair.. I wrapped my hair up into a towel I keep for dying purposes. I then waited for about 30 minutes, its amazing how long 30 minutes is while you are waiting to wash hair dye out .Time to make a cup of tea and drink it. I was careful when I sat down as I did not want to colour my armchair too.
I rinsed my hair thoroughly under the shower head, then applies the conditioner I massaged it in for a couple of minutes then rinsed my hair 2 minutes. . I used a hair drier to dry my hair .combed and styled it . I was pleased with the result I had covered up that aging grey. I cleared up the mess I did not have any but unused mixed dye should be thrown away and do keep it out of the reach of children.
I waited for my husband to come in to get his opinion, I did not tell him I had dyed my hair .......... after 3 days I said have you noticed anything different about me , he looked said humm after a while he said dyed hair ? Oh well I suppose that's what you get after 34 years of marriage. When he looked he said that it looked good and covered well.
I was happy with the result good coverage, hair felt soft too
Naturtint hair colorant uses ecofriendly, biodegradable packaging. They are also suitable for vegans and against animal testing. It is a gentle hair colour products with active vegetable ingredients.
There is a lot of info about this hair colourant on line one site http://www.herbsgardenshealth.com/Hair_Colour_File s/Naturtint_info.htm has quite good info to check if this dye suitable for you.
Do remember to do that allergy test first although I believe this dye uses less allergy causing chemicals. Do follow the instructions in the packet carefully
