Natural result even over highlighted, dark roots and grey, evened it all out. I applied all over.
Wonderful product! I was nervous as my hair is a lot of grey and dark plus bleached areas, I have tried many products to cover the grey nothing worked, I wanted natural no amonia because the hair is damaged. I am so happy, it has brought my hair back to the closest natural original colour and I covered ALL grey! I will never use anything else on my hair again, so happy! 2 Before and after photos. It blended in with the lighter parts I had highlighted previously which were too blonde, it covered the horrible grey and lighted the orangey and very dark areas.

Really beautiful dye which I did not expect..
So far I'm very impressed! The application was easy and not as messy. The formula was a gel like formula which was easy to apply to my roots. The colour has come out nice and strong covering all my horrid greys! Yay! I have extremely stubborn greys and I was very skeptical at first since other hair dyes have not lived up to their expectations/promises. I took a chance on this dye given it's qualities and gentle options. Although the packaging is very 1920s! Never judge a book by it's cover 📔 I'm glad I bought it and tried it.

Great grey coverage, leaves hair super shiny!
I don’t write reviews, but I was very impressed with this dye, and hopefully it will help someone else who is looking into a more natural alternative to colouring their hair. Grey coverage is really good, personally I think better than the standard ammonia box dyes. My hair is really shiny after using. No smell to the product; standard box dyes make me feel dizzy. One box did full coverage of my mid-length hair. If I was just doing roots then I think you could get 2-3 applications from it. Only downside is it’s a little darker than I would’ve preferred, and shade range is a little limited, but overall I am really pleased with this product and happy that I found a more natural alternative!

Pleased
Overall I am pleased with the product. After reading sone comments, I left it longer to make sure my greys are covered (1.5h). It was gentle to my scalp and no itchiness. As you can see in the photos, the shade/tone depends on lighting. From my experience, bronze shades always had some orange undertones visible in the sunlight! I also bleached my hair before so sometimes I use tonning purple shampoo & conditioner to reduce any brassiness.

Bright orange hair.
I've been dyeing my hair myself for many years. I bought the colour 7D golden blond hoping for a subtle change on my mid brown hair. I was led to believe it would look like the colour on the pack or maybe a bit darker. After using it my hair is now a shocking bright orange. I will never buy this brand again.

Natural results - but no full coverage or colour advertised
Pros - it smells less chemical than other dyes- the colours these dyes produce are very natural looking if that’s important to you- you can mix it in batches and use as you need, good for top upsCons- my biggest issue with these is they are advertising them as 100% grey cover, but in the actual leaflet it says you need to mix them with a corresponding one from their range to get that, I’ve bought 4 now and did eventually get good cover but not very happy I had to do that. Seems misleading- the colour and on the box are nothing like the colour you get, the blondes are brown. My hair is light, so it’s not about the base colour. They need to change the description- you need to buy your own kit to mix and apply, in theory you can use the cap to measure, but I found this inaccurate- it’s really messy! I found stains halfway across the bathroom because it’s a very watery consistencyOverall I loved the idea of these, less chemical, mix as you need etc but I’ve found it a faff and have spent a lot of money trying to get it right. Back to other brands for me unfortunately

Easy to use and leaves hair soft and shiny
I don’t like using chemicals to colour my hair so I went for this as it has less than the average dye. My hair is silver and white and I wanted a very pale blonde. It did a great job. But I just mixed half the ingredients as I have a chin length bob, and with rubber gloves just massaged it through my hair checking in the mirror that I’d covered all my hair. I’d done the strand test so thought 25 minutes would get the right colour. I was very pleased with the result but would probably do 20 minutes when I finish the last of the mixture, as I prefer it creamy rather than yellow. The mixture does your hair twice unless you have long hair, ie down past your shoulders, so it’s very reasonable too. It’s stayed in for over 3 months and I’m ready to redo it. My hair felt and feels silky and soft which is not always the case with hair colour. I’m Very pleased with it.

The product quality is outstanding. Exactly what I needed for my work.
It is possible to lighten natural hair by one or two shades on brown or chestnut hair and two to three shades on light chestnut or blonde hair. Can lighten previously tinted hair by two tones.
Bleached hair:
Herbatint can return hair to its natural colour, but remember to mix a gold shade with a natural if your target shade is 6N or above. 5N and below are fine by themselves on bleached hair.
Permed hair:
Do not colour your hair immediately after a perm. We recom- mend waiting two weeks and then shorten the processing time by 10 minutes and use a shade lighter than your target shade.
Hair that has been treated with henna:
Henna creates a sheath around the hair making it very difficult for tint to penetrate on the first application. Subsequent appli- cations should be more successful.
Grey hair:
If you choose a colour, which is Ash, Golden, Copper, Mahogany, we advise you to mix it with a colour from the natu- ral range in equal parts. Do not mix together two shades of the golden range.
Instruction for use:
Apply the haircolouring Herbatint on dry hair, leave to develop 30 to 40 minutes, rinse, shampoo with a shampoo from the Herbavita range and finish with the application of the royal cream.
Safety Warning
May cause an allergfe reaction. It s advised to do a preliminary sensitivity est. Rinse well the hair after the application of the nature. Avoid contact with eyes, rinse immediately' if the product cores in contact with them. Do not use for dyeing eyebshes or eyebrows.
