Permanent Hair Color, Light Burdock 5N, Ammonia-Free, 4 fl oz

I first used this hair color about 15-20 years ago, when I was in my 20's and had no gray hair. Back then, I used it for "fun," and my favorite color was 7R (Turmeric Blonde). I was, and still am, about a level 5 (medium brown) naturally, though my hair has gotten ashier over the years. After my 20's, I let my hair go natural for many years, but after having kids, I started getting grays (they'll do that to you!). At that point, I decided to use Rainbow Henna (henna/indigo mix) because I didn't want a demarcation line and I wanted something that was all natural, with no chance of damaging my hair. Well, several years of using that product left my hair very healthy, but also very dark, and the too-dark hair was just making me look older. Long story short, I had to do a bleach bath on the lengths and ends to lift my hair about 1-2 shades, back to my natural 5. It took me several attempts to find the right color, but the 5N is perfect. For reference, the 6N made my hair quite red and lifted it about two shades, so it actually looked closer to the 7R. I found the 5N warm, but not terribly so--certainly not red or orange. It works with my henndigoed-then-bleach-bathed hair quite well. I think I called the folks at Herbaceuticals like 3-4 times, and they were so nice and helpful! Just love this company and its product. It's really too bad Whole Foods doesn't sell it anymore but now I just get it here or on the Naturcolor website. If you're trying to cover grays, I would HIGHLY recommend following the suggestion in the instruction booklet to first apply a little of the developer to the grays. I did this on my temples and my grays are gone. Oh, and it smells REALLY good too!

This was my first time ever coloring my own hair (desperate to cover my gray scalp, unable to see my stylist during the pandemic). I am very happy with the outcome overall—color matched perfectly, and my hair is shiny and feels silky smooth after washing with enclosed shampoo/conditioner samples, just like it feels after professionally done—but trial and error on my part because I missed a few grays (though not really noticeable) probably from lack of experience and not leaving on long enough. I also have a lot of dye left over so I probably could have used more, but I was being careful and didn’t know how much to use, so I will know better next time. It did not burn/irritate my scalp at all (I have psoriasis), and it did not have a bad smell. I would definitely use this again.

Love the color and the all-in-one package. All you need is in the box! I also love the texture, it's think enough that its not runny while you leave it on. No drip on my clothing, yay! Not all my gray was covered the first time I used this so I left it in longer the 2nd time (1 full hour), turned out much better and all my gray hair took the color. The color seems to wear out about a week sooner compared to what I was using before but I'm willing to trade that for no amonia on my head!

I like this product a lot, but you might want to know it fades pretty fast. Maybe it's the shampoo I use, or the grey hair I have to cover, I don't know. But the color is VERY natural and rich. When I used a different brand, in the second month the color looked brassy. This doesn't happen with Naturcolor. But by the end of the second month it's looking pretty light. That's when I color it again. Four stars instead of 5 because of the fading. It doesn't damage my hair or dry it out. I've used it regularly for about 3 years at least. Gloves are included.

I found that I am allergic to professional hair color and most store-bought hair colors. I have a lot of grey and am not ready to go grey--I prefer my brown hair! This color was the last color to try before I had to accept going grey for good, but it worked! The color is very pretty and it covers quite well. I do have some resistent grey hairs on my temples, but it covers all of the greys on my head and it lasts longer than some other box colors I've used. The last time I used it I had NO itching! The first time I used it I had minimal itching due to my allergy. So if you are allergic to most hair dyes, do try this color. I'm reordering! OH, and because I have short hair, I got two colors out of it.

Upon opening the product, thedark brown color liquid had somehow spilled a bit onto the inside contents. I'm not sure why there was no quality control overseeing my first purchase of this item? So it was somewhat messy but since I needed to color my hair that weekend, I used it anyway. The scent of the conditioner was repulsive so I threw it out. Advice: smell product before use. However, the small bottle of oil was a nice touch and its odor was ok. Perhaps because sthere is no peroxide, some hair strands began turning gray a week later.

I buy this hair color frequently and I love it, but this is the second time I have received it in this shape. The lid on the hair color must not be on tight enough because the color leaked out onto everything else in the box. Please make sure it is sealed properly.

No toxic smells. No itchy chemical rash. I have very sensitive skin and this worked amazing for my grey hairs ( I am only using this for grey coverage) will order again and again
