Non-Toxic Hair Color
Hi Barefoot,
Thanks for your reply! I'm hoping that others post to this thread, too.
I used to use something called Water Works that I bought at Sally's Beauty Supply. It lasted about 6-8 weeks, but I wasn't as gray. It's a powder in a package--no peroxide or ammonia, and turns into a gel after you add water to the powder. Once I became more gray/white, it was too difficult for me to apply it by myself, especially in the back. I don't want to trouble hubby to be my stylist, nor does he want to be! :-)
I asked several salons if they would use this product on me (if I provided it), but they're not allowed to do so. Surprisingly, many local salons don't offer ammonia-free hair color. For the past year, the stylists have applied Redken's Chromatics, which is ammonia-free. I have tried other color products and stylists, and haven't found the perfect match yet.
Recently I was at Lake Nutrition Center, the health-food store in La Plaza Grande. They have a book for ordering HerbaTint (ammonia-free), but I'd like to see the actual package, read ingredients, and see the hair samples. I called HerbaTint's toll-free #, and the gal said that's available at Whole Foods Market. The closest one is in Orlando, so I'm thinking of making a trip there. Also, there's an organic hair color called NaturTint that's ammonia-free.
