Yes, I dye my hair. And this is great.
I’ve been dying my hair for a while. For a time I would go to a salon to have it done but that costs a lotta lotta money so I do it myself. I used to use the usual suspects off the shelf of your local grocery or department store. No big deal. Got the job done.
But I’d get headaches for a bit after I’d done it. Made me wonder. So about four months ago I was at the Co-op (sort of a local one-up Whole Foods, I guess; been around since the ’70s when it really was a co-operative and you had to put your time in weekly with the bins of bulk grain, etc.). And I asked what they’d recommend (beside the henna track).
I ended up with a couple of shades of Naturcolor. Two boxes (5N, 5R), two bottles, I used one set to mix up for one session and another for the next session. It’s nice. No stink. No scalp burning. No headache. And the color isn’t flat; it seems to pick out individual strands to color different shades. My hair seems fuller and not so traumatized.
I don’t even need to use the whole amount, so I think I’ll get a dye brush and pot and use just half a portion each time. That’ll mean the price is less than or comparable to the grocery store prices.
