hi all
just thought i should share this with those who dont know about herbal hair dyes. I am on Xeloda and was told by my oncologist that i should in no way use any chemical hair dyes, otherwise i might lose my hair.
I am 90% grey at the age of 37 and after 5 months of walking around with my roots showing (I have dark brown hair) I found something that seems to be okayish. am experimenting with different colors and so far the color is gradually catching.
Logona hair dye - i buy it off a website called beauty bazaar and they cost about £10 (plus delivery charges). they do powder and creme colors but the creme dyes dont cater for all hair colors. I used a powder one and here are the pro’s and con’s
Adv
-natural plant derived produces
-not a bad choice of colors
-creme or powder choices depending on your hair color
- you can mix different color powders to get your desired hair color
Disadv
-lots of info on the product.
-be careful whilst chosing your color as the color guide is not that great (google to find a color chart and there is a site that has a good one). i made the wrong choice and its a pain as it was a costly mistake
- the powder dye can be messy but you can recycle an old dye bottle and use this for hte mixture.
- takes ages to color. i left it for 2 hours, but my hair hasnt been colored for 7ths, so i guess its stubborn hence the long wait.
just wanted to share this if anyone is interested.
