How do you use natural hair color shampoo?

Published in Hair Coloring 3 mins read

Based on the provided reference, using a natural hair color shampoo (specifically in the context of KHADI NATURAL HAIR COLOR (Henna)) involves applying the color, rinsing, and then allowing up to 48 hours for the color to fully develop.

Here's a more detailed breakdown, extrapolating from the available information about henna-based natural hair color:

Steps for Using Natural Hair Color Shampoo (Henna Example)

While the reference doesn't provide all the steps, we can infer a process common to henna and similar natural hair color products:

  1. Application: Apply the natural hair color (shampoo) to your hair. The reference video shows someone dying their hair with a henna product, implying a similar application process for a natural hair color shampoo.
  2. Rinsing: After application and processing time (which isn't specified in the reference but is usually indicated on the product packaging), rinse your hair thoroughly.
  3. Drying: Dry your hair as usual after rinsing.
  4. Color Development: Understand that the color will continue to develop over the next 24 to 48 hours. The color you see immediately after rinsing isn't the final result.

Important Considerations for Natural Hair Color

  • Patch Test: Always perform a patch test before applying any new hair color product, including natural ones, to check for allergic reactions.
  • Strand Test: Do a strand test to see how the color will look on your hair before applying it to your entire head. This helps you adjust the application time or color mixture if needed.
  • Read the Instructions: Carefully read and follow the specific instructions provided with your natural hair color shampoo. Instructions can vary significantly between brands and formulations.
  • Henna Considerations: If you are using a henna-based product, be aware that it can react unpredictably with chemical dyes. If you've recently used chemical dyes, consult with a professional before using henna.
  • Gray Coverage: Henna and other natural hair color shampoos may not provide complete gray coverage, often resulting in highlights rather than a solid color. Multiple applications may be necessary.
  • Color Fading: Natural hair color can fade more quickly than chemical dyes, so you may need to reapply more frequently.
  • Ingredients: Ensure you are not allergic to any of the natural ingredients.

In summary, using natural hair color shampoo involves application, rinsing, drying, and allowing time for full color development. Always prioritize reading the specific instructions for your product and performing necessary tests.
