This Natural Brown colour is suitable for colouring blonde to light brown hair and grey hair. It is lighter and slightly warmer than the Its Pure Dark Brown.
Being unable to use conventional hair dyes due to allergy/sensitivity, this product is a god send. This covers grey well and the colour result is lovely as it’s tonal depending on the colour of each strand of hair to begin with. Yes it is a pain to have to keep it on for 4 hours each time you do it (about every 5 weeks), and it has quite an unusual smell, but that’s a small price to pay in my opinion. Delivery on this was quick and the price good.
I have been using normal dye without ammonia for years. I then developed a reaction to PPD. I was very upset as I tried other products that said they were natural and were not!! I then came across this product it is excellent have not had no itchiness on scalp. I do have to keep it on for 4 hours to get the best result. The very dark brown does cover my greys. It does take a bit getting use to but worth the effort!!
Thought I'd try the dark brown on my sisters hair as she is having treatment at the mo and can't use chemical colourants. Put it on the roots disappointing coverage. And a horrid green tinge. Never in my 40 yrs hairdressing have I come across this. Not at all impressed.
Oh dear, don't worry, the green tinge should go gradually over a day or two as it oxidises (as it says in the instructions). The darker colours have a higher indigo content and this is what gives a risk of it having green tinge at first, but indigo doesnt stay green. Even if the green didnt go then you could always put another herbal colour on top with more red/henna in it. Generally for stronger grey coverage you leave the paste on for a longer time or do a 2nd application. You would not normally have this experience with chemical dyes as they work differently and are more controllable.

I've been using this product for some time due to an allergic reaction to normal hair coulrants. I have to use the product twice to get the darker shade, but I'm very grey. It can be a bit time consuming, but the end result is worth it.
HI all. I am highly allergic to PPD's and found this out 10yrs ago. My head swelled up, I had weeping blisters on my forehead, my ears. Lumps in my neck. It was bad. I tried many natural hair dyes and unfortunately they washed down the drain pretty quick. I then used Lush Caca Noire henna and I cannot say this did not work because it did. However, the leave in time was minimum 4hrs and it came in a block of 6 segments. I had to take various kitchen knives to break off two pieces and then double zip lock in a bag and bash on my kitchen floor with a rolling pin. I was exhausted after then mixing it without knowing exact amount of water. and often making too runny. Anyhow, this product had the water measurements and the power mixed up beautifully without me getting cramp in my hand trying to crush lumps. I managed to get it on my hair without it going cold and the shower cap was much better than clingfilm which gave me a headache after 4hrs. I got the coverage I wanted. Perhaps more black than I wanted but I'm going to apply the red henna next time, and alternate, so I hopefully get back the reddish highlights which I got from the Caca Noire. Fingers crossed. I'm really pleased to have discovered this.
If it was too dark perhaps try the dark brown on the roots next time. Or if that is still too dark the natural brown. It may also lighten up a bit after a few washes. Be careful of applying successive applications on top of each other as the colour then build up too dark.

I have been buying this product for years now and I love it I tried a number of different products before this one and this was the best thanks so much
I have used this product for two years now and would never use chemical dye's again. It really gives a lovely natural colour and even though you have to set 3 hours aside to apply it, it is worth it!
