Deity Shampoo Color Change Kit

I was skeptical about a "shampoo" that dyes gray roots and shampoos at the same time. But I was looking for something more natural, and--to be honest--I'm taking the word of others who are saying this is a natural product. It does smell like medicinal herbs and not chemicals.I have not seen the YouTube video, so I was confused by the instructions. Do I massage for 10 minutes and then rinse, or do I massage for 10 minutes and then leave it on for another 10 minutes? Should I mix the two creams on my head or should I put it in a bowl first and then apply? Should I make my hair very wet or just damp? Because this hair dye is so different from others I've used in the past, there is a learning curve. Be aware that although it doesn't stain skin as dark as conventional dyes, it can stain your skin. I am Asian with long, straight hair, so I thought I could pile all my hair on top of my head as I do with other dyes, but the first time I used Deity, my hair kept falling on shoulders and staining them black! LOL. The second time I used it, I braided my hair and put the dye only on my roots, which worked much better. But because I forgot to wet my hair first, I wasn't able to spread the cream to all of my roots, so I concentrated on my part and hairline and got great results.I don't know the science behind this shampoo, but massaging it for 10 minutes and rinsing worked, even when I forgot to wet my hair before application. Perhaps the heat from your scalp and/or the heat from the friction of the massage helps facilitate the color change. I just know I like it better than anything else I've ever tried. The conventional cream dyes are very messy and take a lot of water to rinse out; the conventional foam dyes are less messy but the color fades fast. I haven't tried henna, but the process sounds like a lot of work. With Deity, I go in the shower, wet my hair, work the cream onto my roots for 10 minutes, rinse, apply deep conditioner and rinse.Pros: The color lasts. The directions say use it every time you shampoo, so I was concerned I'd be using a whole box of 6 packets in a week, since I have very oily hair. But no worries--you can shampoo your hair in-between dyes with regular shampoo and not experience color fade. Deity rinses out quickly and easily. One box has 6 packets, so you save money. No coal tar. No itchy scalp post-coloring.Cons: The plastic gloves included in the box are the flimsiest gloves I've ever seen. :) I don't think it's possible to massage your hair for even a few minutes without making at least one hole in the fingers, as I did the first time, even with my short fingernails. Buy decent rubber gloves, and then you can use the paper-thin gloves for rinsing only. I believe Deity Shampoo only comes in black, so you're out of luck unless you want black hair. It doesn't give you subtle shades or color gradations, but I never really noticed those with even the expensive at-home "professional grade" hair color brands I've tried over the years.

Only once have I ever had my hair colored (in a beauty salon), but I did not like the burning sensation on my scalp during the hair coloring procedure, and I was concerned about the harsh chemicals entering my skin. After that, I never had my hair colored again. Many years later, now in my early 60s and with more gray, I reconsidered having my hair colored, but I liked my hair very long. When I asked beauty salons for price quotes, they would say "over $100" because of the amount of time spent and coloring products used. Alternatively, I decided to find a natural product that I could use myself, preferably a shampoo-in type, which I found on Amazon. Wow - what an awesome transformation! I went from gray to black in 10 minutes without the burning sensation nor the 45-minute wait, so CHEAP, and I did it myself. (I use two Deity packets for my long hair.) The results were amazing: My hair was soft/silky and beautifully black, taking 10 years off my looks. My beau said I looked great.As a general rule, I use natural products, including makeup (Zuzu), body lotion (Kiss My Face), face lotions (Burt's Bees and Vitacost CSI), soap bar (South of France), shampoo/conditioner (Naturegate), etc. Although Deity manufacturer recommends using the product each time you shampoo, I only need to color my hair with Deity hair color shampoo once every two months, when the gray hair grows out.Bottom line: The product is natural, comes with gloves, so inexpensive, and so easy to use. It is one of my best keep secrets! -"Victoria C."

Okay, so I'm 25 and starting to grow some grays. I've never colored my hair and I have really dark hair it almost looks black- I'm Mexican, have curly/wavy hair. I didn't wanna start coloring my hair so I decided to try this and for me It worked well and for those who said didn't see results... You have to keep trying it. Some people won't see results right away others luckily do. In my case the first use was ok- didn't fully cover my grays, but you can barely see them so I was impressed. I was excited to try it againThe next hair wash I did, I shampooed my hair again with the Deity shampoo and couldn't find the grays I usually see(mind you I used the same pack that I didn't finish the first wash and I have really long hair up to my waist).So I do love this stuff:) the only reason I gave it 4 stars is the smell isn't that great. I tried to hide the smell with my herbal essence rose conditioner it helped a little but when it dried the shampoo over powered the shampoo lol. It has an earthy smell..I'm pregnant so the smell just wasn't for me.
