Naturtint 5N Light Chestnut Brown, 165ml

I am more than pleased with my first purchase of Naturtint Hair Colour, from all the products I researched this appeared the kindest for my newly grown and sensitive hair after chemotherapy. I lost my hair completely and waited patiently for it to grow back to a point that I could colour it. It had returned almost completely grey, dry and brittle. I was very apprehensive about what product to use so as not to further damage the hair but definitely wanted to use something because as it was, it was making me feel old before my time and after going through all that horrendous and at times brutal treatment which gives your body image the ultimate battering, I wanted at least some of my confidence, sparkle and glow back. This product did the trick, my hair may be short but the resulting colour (4M/Mahogany Chestnut) was so vibrant and luscious and made me smile the biggest smile upon looking in the mirror. It is such a deep and rich shade and I wasn't expecting that from something free of harsh chemicals and made with 99% natural ingredients, I was dubious as to whether it would cover the strong and stubborn grey but it absolutely did! Application was a breeze, I mixed only half the mixture to a ratio of 1:1 in a separate applicator bottle and it was more than enough for my short hair so I have enough for another session when the need arises. It was gentle on my scalp and so nourishing on my hair, after just one application , not only was my hair a gorgeous colour it was soft, smooth and conditioned. The after colour quinoa conditioner mask included is integral to the whole colouring process and for a perfect finish so definitely not a step to be skipped and the generous amount means it can be used a good few times afterwards to keep your colour looking it's best. Naturtint may well be a little on the pricey side compared to some others on the market but I will 100% be purchasing again because to me it was worth every penny, it was kind and gentle on my 'new' hair which had grown back in a sad and sorry state. It has not only given my hair new colour but also a new lease of life. The fact I can get two applications from the one pack whilst my hair is still only short is a welcome bonus but when it grows longer (fingers crossed) and needs the entire contents to suffice, I will still be more than happy to purchase because it is a superior, vegan product of exceptional standard, enriched with organic oils and natural ingredients and my hair is most definitely worth it, as am I! Definitely easier on the pocket than a trip to the salon. So many stunning colours to choose from is a joy and I may well experiment in the future but for now this is my perfect shade. I would post a photo but my confidence isn't quite there yet, hopefully soon.Thank you Naturtint for a remarkable product.

I have been using Garnier Nutrisse for years, but recently came out in a rash after using it. I’m not ready to stop dying my hair, so thought I’d give this a go. Did a sensitivity test first and all ok. It has a very natural smell, covered my hair well and didn’t dry it out. The quinoa mask to use afterwards is great, and also smells natural. Went a couple of shades lighter (9N) than usual (Garnier 8N) and it worked well. No hint of a rash or itchiness so will definitely be using this again.

I wanted to give this product 5 stars but Im not sure if its me doing it wrong when applying. The dye is great. No chemical burns, no itchiness and shine is great, and lasts longer than the regular shop bought dyes. Only issue I have is the conditioning balm. This is the second time I have used this make and the frst time, I used alot of balm and hair was really greasy, even after drying. The second time I dyed my hair with this product, I only used a small amount of the conditioner after and it is still very greasy and takes longer to dry. I only used half the bottle of dye and mixture this time too as I read somewhere if you have shorter hair (mine is shoulder length), you can use half the micture as long as the dye and other mixture is at a ratio of 1:1, which I did.If anyone can tell me what im doing wrong or has experienced the same as I dont want to keep trying different vegan types of hair dyes. I have to condition my hair after using this product as the hair dye itself leaves my hair feeling quite brittle and like straw.?

Excellent product!! Lovely colour

First time I purchased the " fireland " which faded after a while but still the colour was brilliant, bright& vibrant. Now I bought the " copper blonde " and I was aiming for the aburn colour and I am very happy with the product. No harsh smell or itchy scalp.

* * * * * * * * *UPDATE 28/05/2015:See comment #2 below on how I fixed my hair if you have experienced similar problems.* * * * * * * * *My natural hair colour is a neutral, medium blonde, pretty much exactly like the lovely lady on the packet. So after getting a few lighter blonde highlights for the summer, I thought I could go back to my natural colour using Naturtint 8N, which also promised to be less damaging than conventional hair dyes.Now I'm not stupid. Despite the cleverly phrased allusions to natural ingredients, Naturtint is not BASED on natural ingredients, it CONTAINS a few plant based extracts. They also simply replace ammonia with phenylenediamine, which is equally harmful, but hey, now they can claim that it's ammonia free. I knew all of this before I used the product, but since it contains a smaller amount of harmful chemicals than standard hair dyes and received many glowing reviews on various websites, I decided to give it a try. What could possibly go wrong?Maybe I am stupid. I should have stopped as soon as I saw the colour of the colourant: bright red (which later turned into a very warm yellow after mixing it with the colour developer). Yes, this isn't supposed to be ash blonde, but this dye is waaay to warm/golden, there has to be at least a hint of blue/violet pigment in order to achieve a neutral shade. But hey, who am I to give someone a lecture on basic colour theory? So I trusted the professionals and the reviewers and these were the results:PROs:- smells more like a conditioner than hair dye- did not burn as much as conventional products- even coverage + colourCONs:- FRIED my hair. Literally. It became so dry that I couldn't comb it without risking to break off several strands, even after using the multiplier (conditioner) that was included in the packet- brassy, unnatural, much too light strawberry blonde instead of a neutral medium blondeSince both my natural roots and the lighter blonde highlights ended up a light strawberry blonde, it's definitely not due to my previously coloured hair, but due to the product. I left it on for the maximum amount of time, because I could see that it was turning very brassy at first and the longer I left it on, the less brassy it got, but after 45 minutes the colouring process had run its course and I was left with strawberry blonde, fried hair. My hair has NEVER been in such a bad shape (and believe me, I experimented with all kinds of perms and dyes when I was a teenager) and I could kick myself for trusting a supposedly natural and gentle product blindly. Now I have no other choice but to go to my hairdresser who will probably have a laugh.
