Hello Ladies,

I want to dye my hair. In the past when I dye my hair I get a headache. I am getting older and I want to cover my gray. Please help. I want to know which hair color product that is out there that I can use that is gentle. Also, I get some shedding afterward.

Thanks for the information. But, my hair is gray and thinning. I need something that's not going to burn the ends.

You can get waterworks at sally beauty supply % equipment for 4.99 reg price, sally card: 3.99. Sally is located nationwide and the website is http://www.sallybeauty.com . Doesn't carry ammonia so no offensive odors and covers gray. You just mix with water and it is permanent hair color. Hope this helps!

Hi there,

Waterworks haircolor is one I use that doesnt smell at all really. Mixes with water and the peroxide is already blended in w/color powder. I'm VERY chemically sensitive to almost all unnatural scents & chemical stuff and I use it w/no problems! You have to order it online, Thats only place ive found it. Good prices too! good luck! Jess

you could try to do a cocktail with the permanent hair colour.... you mix shampoo hair colour and peroxide together... about 1/3 each and mix in container with a stir stick... then when your hair is wet... shampoo it in...[i usually have more shampoo than 1/3] leave it on... i leave mine on 20 to 30 minutes.... other people leave it 5 minutes....[the longer you leave it the darker it will take] result ... covered my greys... it gradually washes out... without roots.... more of a natural look... and i can use it 2 more time.... my hair is short... this method saves me money and is less harsh on my hair...of course don't forget to wash it out after all that

I colored my hair for years. A few years ago (at age 39), my husband asked me to stop coloring it. The first year or so was hard for me, as I had to wait for the dyed part to grow out (I didn't want a short cut to get rid of it.) It is almost totally white now--I get SO many compliments on it! I have even had people ask if I color it white!! I vote for letting your hair grow out naturally! I never would have thought mine would have turned out so beautifully!

There are also brands in the grocery store that carry hair dyes without ammonia - no smell!

What color? For a range of red to brown colors, try henna. All natural, no chemicals. You have to do a strand test to see what your color will be. I've been henna-ing my hair for about 5 years now and I feel like I have more hair, thicker hair, and it's in better condition than ever before. My hair is originally dark brown and I get a dark cherry color with the henna. Covers grey really well. For more info, try this website: http://www.hennaforhair.com .
