Colour Me Organic (Dark Brown)

I love this product and have been using it for about a year now. I tried the strawberry blond and the auburn red first before liking the light brown best. The strawberry blond and auburn red left my hair a bit too bright for my taste. I've found the light brown has a slight reddish color which is all I"m looking for. I feel this product works best on hair that has not been dyed with chemicals. When I first started using it half my hair had been dyed blonde with chemicals and the dye didn't take very well until after several applications; however, the part of my hair that had grown out and was not previously dyed worked great with the organic hair color on the first take. Don't leave it on much longer than the directions say especially if you're using one of the reddish dyes; there's a good chance it will look like a clown. As for the smell, if you are used to scents and fragrances of conventional beauty care products this might smell weird to you. I don't mind the smell personally. It sure beats the eye-stinging smell of chemical hair dyes that warn you to have good ventilation when you use them! When you mix the dye the color is green, but I promise that my hair has come out looking the color on the box every time.Overall I love this product. It gives my hair a great color and leaves it shiny and soft. If you are looking to change to natural/organic beauty products you've found the hair dye you've been looking for.

This is the only dye I've used for years because it contains no chemicals. The ones with chemicals, including others said to be healthier products (false advertising), cause me to break out in horrible burning itching eczema, not to mention that the most toxic chemical used in almost all of them is said to induce cancer.That said, it doesn't work very well. It has to be gooped on very thick and left for at least eight hours, and even then, there will be some silver shining through on roots if I look closely when it is done. One comment suggested not washing it with shampoo, just water, for a couple of washes, which I did but didn't notice a big difference. I can't do this well myself so I pay a hairdresser to apply it for me (some salons refuse to apply it on ridiculous legal grounds) and walk out with it on and wash it out later myself. It also has a swampy smell that takes a while to fade. Then the color begins wearing out somewhat quickly.That said, I am happy to have a hair dye without chemicals in a world loaded with toxic chemicals, including almost every other hair dye, which make me sick. And I'm happy to not have grey hair which looks terrible with my skin tone. The color and texture when fresh is actually quite nice. And also, this dye comes out easily from towels and clothes.

I like to dye my hair a light ash brown/blonde, but it always fades to a brassy color. I hated re-dyeing my hair because that meant I was constantly applying chemicals to my scalp, which always led to a headache that lasted the entire day. So I decided to search online and came across this one. I didn't know whether to choose one of the ash blondes or the other colors, so I found some color swatches online and decided to choose the wheat blonde since that was the ashiest of all of them. I tried it out as soon as I received it and I did a strand test to see if it would give the color I was looking for and then applied it fully to my hair and left it on for 40 minutes. After washing it out and blow drying, my hair looked great and was the exact shade of ash brown/blonde I wanted. My hair was also shinier and looked healthier. I have a little below shoulder length hair and I didn't even have to use the entire package. I still have enough for another application. The instructions were simple and it comes with gloves, an application brush and a plastic cap. It is truly organic and it makes me feel awesome that I'm not using a product with chemicals like PPD, ammonia, parabens, etc. It is pricier than regular boxed drugstore dyes, but overall, I absolutely love this hair color and will continue to use it. I highly recommend! :)

This was the worst product I have ever bought. I paid over $20 to get this and not even one strand of hair got colored. I wasted my money and my time in applying this product. Stop ripping off people in the name of organic and natural. I have been applying henna in my hair for long time and this is the first time I came across something that didn’t color even one strand of my hair. Total rip off.

Too many steps and results vary depending on if you have gray hair. It can take several days before you see the true color results.

The color is good, though there is a slight green cast in some spots. Did excellent at covering the grey and whites. Wasn't as soft as I had hoped, and has a strong smell of spinach. Would have given it 5 stars if it had made my hair softer and it had less of a spinachy smell.

Why would anyone use chemicals to dye their hair? peroxide eats hair. These are plants and coat hair. My hair is as shiny as it was when I was a kid now that I have stopped chemically treating my hair for a year. This light ash blond coats my grays enough so that it looks as though I spend a fortune highlighting my brown hair. My hair is a gorgeous shimmering light brown with this product. if your hair is prone to brassy undertones than you must have indigo on hand. You can mix some into the dye or apply later if an issue. I always add a bit of indigo to my hair.if your hair is frosted than be very careful with indigo. This product came quickly and is less brassier than most- they use a colorless henna to help dye, which is a smart technique. Strand test can be done by collecting hair from your brush if you don't want to cut snips of your hair. I love Radico Colour Me Organic products, The Henna Guys, and Colora henna products... Also, if you are trying to let your hair turn gray gradually- this is the way to go. Just do less time each time and eventually you end up with gray hair. WE all know that colored hair on old leathery faces just looks awful.

Good
