It's Pure Natural Hair Dye - Dark Brown

To check the colour, we recommend you strand test a small section of your hair before applying to your entire head. 

 

You can achieve a darker colour result with repeated applications.  

 

The colour is also affected by how long you leave the paste on. If you leave the paste on for 1 hour it will be a lot lighter than if you leave it on for 3 hours.
 

When you first wash out the dye it will often not be the full depth of colour but will gradually deepen to its true colour as the dye oxidises with the air.

 

On very light coloured or grey hair the colour sometimes appears to have a green tinge at first, but don’t panic - this will fade gradually over a few hours or days, as the dye oxidises, and the colour deepens.

 

If your hair has been chemically lightened it will affect the colour result. - Chemical lighteners make your hair more porous and thus absorb the colour less predictably. 

 

It is not recommended to use chemical bleach after using herbal hair colour containing indigo unless it has faded or grown out. This is because bleach will not remove indigo so you may be left with a bluish colour.

 

There may be slight variations in colour result between different batches of Herbal Hair Colour. - The botanical ingredients can be affected by varying climatic conditions from year to year.

It’s Pure Dark Brown hair dye is entirely natural and the final result depends on your initial hair colour. As a guide, you can expect the following:

If you have...	The likely result is…
White or very light blonde	Light-medium brown
Dark blonde	Medium brown
Light brown	Medium-dark brown
Medium brown	Dark brown
Salt-and-pepper mix of white & brown hair	The white hair goes light brown, and the dark hair a darker brown

The Herbal Hair Colour powder is mixed with warm water before application. The paste is left on your hair for 0.5 to 4 hours depending on the depth of colour required.

 

We strongly recommend doing a strand test first before putting the colour all over your hair, because the colour result can be different on different people’s hair. You should wait 24 hours after the strand test to see how the colour develops, because it oxidises and darkens over time.

At CancerPal, we recommend It's Pure hair colour for people ready to colour their hair as it grows back after chemotherapy. New hair is often fine, and the scalp can stay sensitive for some time, so we look for the gentlest option rather than the strongest one.

 

It's Pure Organics powders are made from plant ingredients such as henna, cassia, amla, indigo and neem. They contain no PPD, ammonia or peroxide, and no synthetic colours or preservatives. They don't penetrate the hair shaft, so they colour the hair without harsh chemical processing. Although please be aware that they won't lighten your hair or give a dramatic colour change, and results may fade after a few washes.

 

Also it's important to note that 'natural' doesn't mean risk-free. Always patch test before every use.
