Light Mountain Henna Hair Color & Conditioner, Color the Gray - Auburn Hair Dye for Men/Women, Chemical-Free, Semi-Permanent Hair Color for White, Gray, and Blonde Hair, 7 Oz (Pack of 2)

I have been using this for years. I get many compliments on my hair color

I'm allergic to chemical hair dye and have used this for years. It does a great job and my hair looks thick and shiny after using it. Both the auburn and mahogany colors blend in naturally for me (my hair is a reddish brown). The red is too firey to blend in for me, and the brown is too dark. I have long hair and usually get two - sometimes three - uses out of a box and use this once a month. The only issue I have with this hair dye is the mess. It is very messy to use. Like really messy - "open a roll of paper towels and sigh before using" messy. Big gloopy greenish muck messy. But... not using chemicals on my head and getting really good results keeps me coming back.

Easier to use than conventional pure henna. Less time needed to achieve desired color. It covers well, but it does fade from the temples where my hair is pretty close to white. As for the smell, that’s just henna 🤷‍♀️ You can add a little essential oils if it’s really bothersome (I’ve used henna for 12+ years so I’m used to it). Clean up with soap and warm water (I have tons of stains in my bathroom from chemical hair dye but henna has rarely left a permanent stain). Put cream on areas where you don’t want color as it will dye skin. If it’s taking 6 hours, you’re doing it wrong.
