I am trying to live more naturally, but I love dying my hair jet black, so this time, I tried Naturtint. I didn't experience any allergic reaction or burning and the color appears to have turned out very dark. That said, the product smells unpleasant, it took multiple washes with my Aveda shampoo to get it to go away. It also is terribly hard to wash out. You'd think a natural product would be easier in this aspect. It took about 15 minutes (maybe 8 or so lathers) of vigorous washing with shampoo before the water began to run even semi clear. After all of this, there is still some left in my hair. How do I know? It's on my pillows and when I put my hands through my hair my fingernails come back dark brown and little brown flakes of product come tumbling from my hair. Attractive. On top of all of that, my hair is super coarse and had no shine to it until I applied lots of my usual shine product. As much as I wanted this product to work, and as superior it is to some other natural dyes, it still doesn't measure up to the big name box dyes. And hey, it may be more natural but it's still made with tons of chemicals. Might as well go with a brand you're familiar with that won't degrade the quality of your hair and stain your stuff.

This 4M product is exactly what I wanted: Deep Dark Brown with Merot-like intensity. It colors evenly from root to end, depositing color with out stripping it. If you're familiar with 4M you'll know what I mean, but you don't need #10 peroxide, it uses none and that's great too. I highly recommend this product for ease of application and brilliant color. You'll need to get your 'junk' towels out for the few days after for extra color, but even so you will have strong color and gray coverage just like it promises.

My wife uses this product. She absolutely loves it. Her friends all commented how great she looked. Besides, it is "non-toxic". It fits right into our life style.
