Naturtint Permanent Light Golden Chestnut 5G 5.98 Oz

I was nervous about moving from a semi-permanent hair color to a permanent hair color, and I wanted a product that was as natural (for both me & the environment) as possible. I can highly recommend this product! (at least for the color I use - Light Chestnut). It makes my hair feel soft, shiny, and healthy. I also tried another natural hair color by Tints of Nature, and while it colored my hair just as well, my hair didn't feel as healthy (more dried out, less strong - my hair is fine and I wear it long, so this is important). Naturtint includes a conditioner/color-setting product, and I think this might be part of why it's better. I also think Naturtint smells better (less chemical-ly). I do find, however, that I have to leave the product on my hair for the longer amount of time listed on the directions (30 min. instead of 20) to cover grey more successfully and last longer. Anyway, I wished someone had written a review like this when I was trying to choose products, so here's...Read more

I have tried many different brands of hair dye in the past few years, including a horrifying henna experience that turned my hair orange, and several pricey salon visits to use Aveda hair color, and Naturtint was the best hair color of them all! Even though my hair had different variations of color to begin with (orange ends, gray at roots), the Naturtint colored it all in a completely natural brown. One thing I did notice (as I think is true with most dyes) is that the color came out much darker than I'd expected - I thought that might happen so I had picked a light brown, which came out med/dark brown.
Very easy to use and no bad smell!!!!! The dye took very quickly (twenty minutes) and also stained skin quickly - so use caution when using. My only complaint is that the directions are in several different languages, and I almost missed a step in English because of the way it is designed. Very happy overrall - covered the gray completely and doesn't look fake.

I have been using this haircolor for 9 years. I can't be without it. I started using it because I wanted something that was safer and more gentle. I find that if I use a little less of the developer, the color lasts longer. This is a great product and I highly recommend it!!
