Hi. I am wondering if people can tell me about safe forms of hair coloring.
I'm only 30 but have some gray hair...actually they are white hairs...have
never seen a "gray" one. My dad got gray hair early and I think his mom did
so that is probably at least part of the cause. I am rifing and doing
supplements etc. but still have gray hairs. I have tried lots of shades of
pure henna from the health food store and they do not bother me. It is just
a powdered form of an herb and you ad water. I have multiple chemical
sensitivities and I got another type of hair color from the health food
store
that said natural on it and made from plants. I bought this a long time ago
and never used it because I was trying various shades of henna. Anyway, I
recently got it out to look at it and it does have lots of plant products in
it but some of the ingredients do not sound natural to me and I opened 2
bottles up and they smelled bad and made me nauseous. The one bottle
smelled
like finger nail polish or wine. Anyway, the only problem with the henna is
that al the shades make my hair darker. They cover up my natural highlights
and i think I look better with the blondish highlights which help bring out
my green eyes. With the henna...even light brown...by light brown hair with
blondish highlights becomes what I call dark brown. But, the company says
they cannot make blond henna b/c its not possible and they have tried. With
henna it never lightens your hair. It just coats it and helps cover the
gray. Some products at walgreens you can get which won't lighten your hair
but will just cover it..so like you can get blond and the gray will become
blond...like Castings for example which you use like once a month. But, I
opened that stuff up and smelled it and it stunk and made me nauseous. So,
I
just thought I would through this out their in case someone may know of
something I don't know about. One company at a second health food store
with
a different brand of henna has a "blond" henna but the ingredients actually
say neutral henna with chamomile and marigold herbs in the mix. I did try
it
just to see what would happen but it did not cover the gray at all.
Thanks,
Christy >>
