I currently have dark brown almost black hair but it is coloured and underneath that is years of bleach
so although the artificial colour does take it can fade rather quickly and as I do worry about constant colouring of my hair, with that in mind I have began seeking less abrasive methods and this has lead to me using Natur Vital Colour.
The Natur Vital packs remind me a little of Shaders and Toners which I have no idea if you can still pick up
but basically it is shampoo with pigment particles but unlike those of the past this also has a
conditioning treatment that once more deposits colour into the hair via Henna which washes out
after around four washes should you dislike the result.
Truthfully I don't notice any difference in terms of colour when I use this little pack
but in fairness it does state it is for chestnut hair and mine is a good few shades deeper than that.
However that being said it does leave my hair so much more glossy and it is something I reach for
when I have an event or somewhere special to be as it seems to work much like a glossing treatment.

If you want something like this, you can get 6-8 wash ones in superdrug that are actually nice and easy. I had red tones in my hair and didn't want to dye it to get rid of them, so I covered it up (completely, may I add) with these. I re coloured it about every four weeks as my hair doesn't get greasy at all and the colour is fab. I have to suggest them, as my Hair is in the best condition ever after using these and the shine is uh-maaazing. Can't rave enough. Go and try some :)
ReplyDeleteYou have sold me, next time I am in store I will pick up one, thank you :)
DeleteI hunted for Shaders and Toners at the weekend and couldn't find them. They were amazing!! x
ReplyDeleteI really do wonder what happened to them, maybe the demand wasn't there?
DeleteI used to love shaders and toners for a quick temp colour change. Will have to look at these, I quite fancy a red tint to my hair :)
ReplyDeleteMe too :) they have a red one :)
DeleteI have dyed my hair brown and have the same problem with it fading - previously my hair had been bleached very blonde. I really need something like this to keep my hair looking like I want it to!

I know the feeling only too well, if I find anything that helps you'll be the first to know :)
DeleteOnly place to get shaders and toners these days seems to be from ebay. I very recently dyed by hair back to brown after bleaching it for about six months and am having major problems getting the colour to stay in it. Some strands just still look blonde and the colour fades immediately after the first wash. I read online that applying a protein filler before you dye it can help. I've just ordered some via Amazon from America (it's not cheap but still cheaper than the £100 + I was quoted at a salon!). Will let you know.
ReplyDeleteeBay seems to be the place that products go to die doesn't it?
DeleteI have the same problem so I'll be very intrested in your findings...best of luck :)
I've never tried these before and I don't even know if they are available in the states.
ReplyDeleteI'll see if I can find you a stockist :)
