To check the colour, we recommend you strand test a small section of your hair before applying to your entire head.
A few other things to bear in mind:
- Repeated applications will help build up a darker shade.
- The colour will deepen over a few hours and days as it oxidises on your hair.
- On very light-coloured or light grey hair it sometimes appears to have a green tinge at first, but don’t panic - this will fade gradually over a few hours or days, as the dye oxidises and the colour deepens.
- If your hair has been chemically lightened, it will affect the colour result. - Chemical lighteners make your hair more porous and thus absorb the colour less predictably.
- It is not recommended to use chemical bleach on your hair after using this dye, unless it has faded or grown out. This is because bleach will not remove the indigo element of the dye, so you may possibly be left with a bluish colour. If you do want to try bleaching, please strand test first.
- There may be slight variations in colour result between different batches of Herbal Hair Colour. - The botanical ingredients can be affected by varying climatic conditions from harvest to harvest.

Trying to cover grays. Luckily, only did a test strand. 2.5 hrs. My very dark brown hair turned purple. Very bummed! But very allergic to hair dye and had no allergic reaction with this product.
Hello Jen!
Thank you so much for your review; I'm so sorry to hear you had a poor result when trying the product.
If you used the Very Dark Brown over already dark hair, the likely result would be that it would darken further.
Colour issues such as blue, green or purple tones tend to come from the Indigo in the dye, either because the Henna in the dye hasn't taken so well, or because it has built up over time - but this is absolutely avoidable, and something you can colour correct, either by using a different dye or using the dye in a different way.
I appreciate it can be really tricky to find the right colour & get the shade you're hoping for; which is why doing a strand test was the best thing to do!
I'm happy to help you with finding the right product for you if you're able to get in touch via our contact us page.
With Kindest Regards
Rebecca
Very good product
It’s Pure very dark brown is the first henna that actually covered my grey hair! I now mix it with dark brown or natural brown for a change. It’s so easy to use and doesn’t drip or crack up as other hennas that I’ve tried before. Colour lasts a good 2-3 weeks before fading due to too many shampooings! Excellent product.
Easy to apply and effective producing correct colour in accordance with your colour guide.
I tried This product as my hair using a different product made my hair go red pure worked on my natural hair colour but not my greys unfortunately. Not sure if I will use it again
