Natural hair dye (no PPD and the like) to cover grey

[CoffeandPancakes]

Hi,

I already have a thread running about what to do with my hair, which is thinning, dark brown with a scattering of grey and growing out balayage.

After doing a lot of research, I am definitely stepping away from the harsh permanent dark dyes, but not sure what else to use as an alternative, so any recommendations would be much appreciated.

Henna has been recommended, but not sure it's for me. Are there any other natural dark dyes which successfully cover grey?

Do hairdressers ever offer anything like this?

Daniel Field covered all my greys.
I have used Watercolours and permanent colours.

They do come up very dark.

There are some sites not recognised by Daniel Field - but I think this is the correct site.

Daniel Field does on line consultations - free

I have also used Herbatint

@blibblibs, do you wash it out with shampoo or just rinse?

@Happyhome21, hmm I do worry about being too dark, as I'm quite pale and so it can look a little harsh. Maybe getting a lighter colour than usual would help. Also, the colours on the site don't seem to match the names. I.e, lightest brown looks almost black! Don't know whether to go with the name or the image.

Also, I've never done a root touch up. How does that work when you have highlighted hair? When you wash it out, it must coat the ends slightly.

I just rinse, I do put a bit of my usual conditioner on the ends of my hair but you don't really need to.
It's the best dye I've used at home by a country mile and the least box dye colour I've had.
