Gray hair - best natual solution ?

63 replies

mom17 · 18/11/2015 09:47

I have very poor quality, thin, very low volume hair, almost all turned gray because of dye usage. I am using Loreal and every time I use it, it leads to lots of hair fall, irritation on scalp, eye site weakness but I don't know what all natural products are available ? All this is leading me to depression, my hair started graying at the age of 14(probably because of head injury !!). Please help me find out any good, less damaging n possibly natural solution.

Thank you :) can't wait for it to hurry up and grow !! It feels so soft and the dyed part is so dry and flat ! Best decision I've made ! Should have done it years ago !

Donge13 it's called La Riche Directions; it's available on eBay. It will cover grey but needs doing every 1/2 weeks. It conditions hair and has no peroxide or anything like that. It's only available in bright colours too; I'm a mixture of Rose Red and Plum. It stains your hair rather than changing it, so it washes out eventually. I'm only using it while I grow out the brown dyed bit and after one or two more haircuts I'll be ready to stop using it and go fully grey.

Here's a photo; it's evened out the line between dyed/grey hair. It's actually more purple than this photo shows.

Can you use natural dyes from the Heath shop instead of the supermarket/boots

OP, I'd also say go grey.
your eyesight is being damaged - that worries me, you are clearly allergic to what you are using.

I lost hair after an illness and I took biotin - it grew back, but I have no way of knowing if that was the biotin or if it was going to happen anyway. That said, hopefully biotin can't hurt - look up side effects etc.

Also low vitamin D levels can cause hair loss sometimes

Low iron ferritin levels are often responsible for hair loss. There was a study

Sorry to barge in, but I am growing out my grey and wondered if any of you can recommend a toner product to reduce the brorange effect on my dyed ends?

Scott Cornwell colour restore in chrome and Colour Freedom are good. I also have have a Directions one, but can't remember the name.
Once you've put it on for the first time (have to keep it on maybe 15 mins) then I mix a bit in with my conditioner when I wash it and it stays longer.
