Henna Cream semi-permanent hair dye tips

We know that colouring your own hair can be a daunting task, that's why we've put together our expert tips so that you get the best results from your Tints of Nature Henna Cream Colour.

How To Select Your Perfect Tints Of Nature Henna Cream Shade

Tints of Nature semi-permanentHenna Cream shades are perfect if you are looking for a temporary colour change, to experiment with a new shade or add depth to your existing colour. Please note that Henna Cream shades are not capable of lifting the colour of your hair, but are designed for staying on your current base shade or for going darker. It's easy to find your perfect shade with Tints of Nature colour:

1. Simply choose any colour that's similar in depth, or darker, than your natural or pre-coloured hair and enjoy! But remember, Henna Cream semi-permanent hair dye won't lighten. So, if you have dark brown hair and you choose Golden Brown or Golden Blonde Henna Cream, for example, all you'll get is lovely shiny hair. You won't see any colour change. 

It's as easy as that!

Please note this product DOES NOT contain peroxide therefore it will NOT lift your hair to a lighter shade. To lighten your hair by one shade shop for our permanent hair dye range or alternatively shop for our Ammonia-free Lightener Kit.

Grey Hair Coverage

Will Tints Of Nature cover those grey hairs? Sort of. Tints of Nature Henna Cream semi-permanent home hair dyes can blend in, rather than cover grey and white hairs. Grey and white hairs can be very resistant to colouring, this is usually because the hairs are lacking in essential moisture. Follow our top tips below to get the best grey coverage possible with our semi-permanent hair dye Henna Cream colours.
