Tints of Nature Hair Color: A Better Box
“The Box”. That’s what salon people call the hair dye products that people like me use at home. I’m a bit embarrassed to admit to my hair stylist that I use “The Box” instead of getting my hair colored at the salon. But for completely unglamorous reasons like money and time (those salon appointments take hours!), that’s typically what I do.
Messy dye, smelly fumes and the knowledge that conventional hair dye is a cocktail of toxic chemicals makes me wish I could skip the whole process completely but given my vanity (I’ve still got a kid in elementary school – I can’t go grey!), I’m stuck going through the process every couple of months or so.
Thankfully, Tints of Nature makes a permanent home hair color that is much safer than conventional boxed hair dye. Somehow they found a way to make an effective hair color using a high percentage of natural and organic ingredients, while leaving out most of the nasty chemicals.

I just bought my first box of Henna….now I am a little scared to try it, lol! Good to know there are other options available.
Mauri – let me know what you think of the henna. It takes some getting used to but some people swear by it!
I am so glad to know about this company. I am excited to go to Whole Foods and give it a try!
You really summed up henna-very messy and smelly! I have been using it for a while and I still laugh each time. My bathroom looks like a war zone after I’m done. I’m still a fan. There’s NOTHING harmful or toxic in henna if you are careful and buy the pure stuff. My only concern: I don’t think it’s covering the gray as well as it used to. I don’t have a lot, but I want it covered. I might have to take it up a notch and try Tints of Nature.
Lori – I'm glad you're laughing instead of crying! If only there was an easier way to cover our stubborn grey hair. 🙂
I also have tried henna to cover my grey hair and I found out that it only lasts in 2-3 weeks. So, I still need to buy a new henna after the said effectivity. My son used to personally put the henna to my head. One thing I also don’t like about it is because of its smell. Maybe sometime soon I will try Tints of Nature, for me to compare its effectiveness to henna.

Tints of Nature is a very good Product for my hair, but there is one thing I dont like about it – the bottle is made of hard plastic and I have to use all my strength to press the dye out of the bottle.
