BEWARE OF NATURAL HAIR COLOR DYE CLAIMS

Many manufacturers of supposedly “natural” hair dye claim that their products are made from natural sources, such as henna coloring. However, on closer inspection of the ingredient label, you may discover that many include PPD, other harsh and potential carcinogenic chemicals and ammonia. For example some ingredient lists may not contain the word ammonia, yet two apparently benign chemicals may in fact create ammonia. If the manufacturer of “natural” hair color does not provide an ingredient list on their website, you can be almost sure their hair dyes are not entirely natural.
At ActNaturals.com, we manufacturer a truly natural hair dye from plant extracts. In fact we have recently received a patent for our unique extractions technology. Our permanent hair color dyes contain no PPD, resorcinol, ammonia (or a combination of chemicals producing ammonia) or any other harsh chemicals. The reason is that our fixative dyes do not need to open the cuticle to penetrate inside the hair. Unlike synthetic hair dyes which have a high pH, (that over time damages the hair), ours operate at a low to neutral range. Our hair dyes actually conditions the hair.
Another big advantage over henna dyes is that our ActNaturals permanent hair colors can be easily lifted with lemon juice. And the choice of rich, lush colors is also considerably broader. So, we invite you to review our ingredients list. When we say natural, we mean natural hair color.
Finally, a natural hair color dye for persons with allergies, cancer survivors who must stay clear of harsh chemicals, pregnant women or people seeking a healthier lifestyle.
