Are there hair dyes that are not chemical but natural?
You can use vegetable dyes to color hair naturally. All of the bright pinks, oranges, greens, blues, purples, reds, etc. that you see people dye their hair are all natural vegetable dyes. Vegetable dyes deposit color on top of, but do not alter the natural color of your hair. You can only darken your hair or change the tone of your hair with vegetable dyes, you can not lighten your hair this way. The "punk" colors are made by brands such as Manic Panic and Special Effects. If you are going for a more natural color, there are a few options. Henna is a red/orange pigment, cassia is a beige/blonde pigment, and indigo is a blue/black pigment. The three can be mixed in different quantities to create a number of very natural looking colors. If you choose to use henna, cassia, or indigo, please be careful. I suggest visiting www.hennaforhair.com for more information, pictures, and for where to buy good henna products. There are a lot of "henna" dyes out there that contain chemical dyes as well as henna, and are not very good for hair. I wish you luck!
Which hair color is safest for hair?
Temporary or vegetable dyes like henna are the safest for hair. These dyes do not cause a chemical reaction and contain no toxic materials. Also, semi and demi permanent dyes are not hard on hair because they contain little to no ammonia. ** A note on henna...the safest henna to use is Body Art Quality henna, not the boxed stuff found in health food stores. It is just henna leaves ground up with no added chemicals. BAQ henna is SAFE, non damaging and looks beautiful. Remember, henna comes in only one colour, and that is reddish orange. Your starting colour is the base. My hair is a lovely cherry red from hennaing for a couple of years....and you know what? I get no headaches anymore. I used to use ordinary permanent dyes and got headaches all the time. Henna is also very permanent. The Lawsone bonds with the keratin in the hair making it impossible to remove. Pure henna will not turn your hair green even though it looks green. Check the ingredients list on your henna boxes....if you see anything like PPD or Sodium picramate, take it back for a refund and find some pure henna (or henna with Indian herbs such as amla, shikakai, etc.) PPD and SP are incredibly damaging to the hair and scalp.
Is the Lustrous Henna All Natural Hair Dye - Dark Brown the only one that can be used by men?

Is henna bad for your hair?
No, real henna is not bad for your hair. But be careful, henna only comes in one color - reddish orange. If the product claims to dye your hair any other color, it's not pure henna - so read what else is in there. And avoid black henna at any cost. It's not henna at all, but a very nasty chemical that can be toxic. But if you want to dye your hair in the salon it can be bad. Henna contains metallic salts that react with other hair dyes. If you went to the salon and failed to mention that you use henna colours and the stylist put an ordinary colour on your hair the hair would be destroyed so don't forget to mention it in the salon.

Why do instructions on henna hair dye warn against using it if you dye your hair with chemical dyes can it be harmful or just produce a funny colour?
Henna dyes and metallic dyes are bad both ways. They can interact with other chemicals to create colors with an odd greenish/orange cast and/or damage to the point of needing to be cut off. I do not recommend henna dyes, do some internet research...you'll probably find some of what I'm talking about. -------------- Metallic dyes and henna dyes (which usually contain metallic dyes) cannot be removed from the hair. Once you have used a metallic dye, no other chemicals can be used on the hair. The only way to remove the color is to cut off the treated hair. Using other chemicals on hair treated with metallic dyes can cause negative chemical reactions that may include irreversable damage and breakage, uncorrectable unusual color changes, and even chemical burns. One of the tell-tale signs hair has been treated with a metallic dye is when any ammonia-based hair color product or bleach is applied, the hair begins to emit a strong foul odor and smoke may be seen rising from the hair. If this occurs, rinse immediately to prevent chemical burns on the scalp and minimize damage to the hair.
How do you color hair without dye?
If you don't want to use chemical dyes, you can use natural vegetable based like henna. Or you can use kool-aid.
