Excellent product
Here is an update from Nov. 2015 -Unfortunately, it applies to the seller of this product, not to the product itself. I bought it at the beginning of October, and now 5 weeks later it still has not arrived from the UK to LA, CA. No tracking info, nothing to do about it, but to ask for a refund and never buy again.I purchased this product for the first time only recently, after doing some online research. I was looking for a healthy alternative to a brand that I used for almost a decade. I have about 20% gray hair, more so on my temples, and my natural hair color is dark brown. The Medium Brown 4N by Tints of Nature seemed to be the best match, so I gave it a try. I had nothing to lose but gray hair.When I got the package, I read everything on the box and in the instructions, just to make sure I’m not missing any warning, as we all know, these things always come with all sorts of warnings. Though, I did not do the allergy test 48 hrs ahead as I never had any allergy issues before, even with brands that are known to be less safe. And I did not regret it, because I had no issues at all. It’s been now 5 days since I used it and I am completely fine.As for the product, I instantly liked it. The color smells very nice, it does not have the typical chemical/toxic smell to it, and I did not even have to turn on the fan in my bathroom. The preparation time is just as with any other brand, as there are two bottles that need to be mixed well, and you are good to start with your journey. The mixed color paste is just thick enough that it does not drip from your hair, and still, you can run your comb through your hair if you need to. I also like that it is made of the certified organic ingredients, and that it has the least amount of the toxic ingredients, which they have to use in order for it to fully cover your gray hair. Be aware that this is not a 100% non-toxic/organic product, however, it is the least toxic permanent hair color that I could find on the market.In addition, it is made in the UK, and to my knowledge, they need to comply with the much stricter EU safety standards, unlike US manufacturers. That fact alone gives me a piece of mind, as FDA has not changed their laws about the beauty products and their safety since the 70s.And the most important thing, the hair color came out beautifully. It has a warm tone of the dark brown shade, and it fully covered all my grays. My hair looks shiny and natural. The gray portion got a very slight tint of a dark brown with golden undertones, but they are still very well covered. No one would be able to tell that those were gray hairs at some point. The previous brand that I used to use would give me a very dark brown with black undertone, and it was a bit too dark. I love this product, it is the safest I could find, its packaging is made out of recycled materials, and they use organic ingredients, among other things.The only thing I don’t like is its price. It is about double of what other similar products cost and I have not seen it in any store in CA. Which means, there is shipping time to include in your wait, so I am about to order myself another box.I highly recommend this brand, and this is after using hair colors on and off for about past 20 years. I started experimenting in my teens, and by now I consider myself an amateur-pro, if there is such a thing.

Pleasantly surprised!
Really happy with the results. I’ve always used Age Beautiful but wanted something more natural and less harsh. My scalp would itch and be uncomfortable after Age Beautiful. With Tints of Nature I had no scalp itching or sensitivity. I’m happy with the color. Will definitely buy again as soon as my roots start showing.

Hair color
The product is excellent so natural covers gray so good.

This gives a natural looking permanent colour that is easy to apply (if not the quickest) that fades very gradually so (depending on your natural shade) doesn’t leave you with obvious root regrowth. I use this about every 6 weeks on my dark blonde & greyish hair and love the end result, lots of natural looking highlights due to the tonal variations I already have. You do have to wash your hair beforehand (shampoo sachet supplied) and it does take 30-45 minutes to take, but unlike many brands doesn’t smell of chemicals (nice scent of camomile actually) and doesn’t irritate the scalp or leave the hair smelling of dye for days afterwards. The only thing that I don’t rate is the conditioner I just use some of my own instead.Tip. Leave it a minute or so after mixing/shaking the bottle for the lotion to thicken up slightly.Not sure it would be suitable for a dramatic change in shade but that is the sort of thing that most home colourants aren’t really suitable for anyway.

Prior to using this product, I used Loreal, which literally put my body and hair under severe distress for over half a week. It was devastating. Loreal made my hair break just by touching it. And my body seriously ached.After three months of serious hair repair treatments, my hair was back to normal, so I tried Hints Of Nature hair color. It is fabulous. I had no negative reactions whatsoever, and my hair looks its best ever. It looks even better than my expensive salon hair colors. I love it.I don’t apply it myself, although I could. Instead, I get my hairdresser in Chinatown to apply it. She does the ultimate job out of any hair salon I’ve ever tried. She doesn’t wet the hair first, but the results are just beautiful.I would recommend this product to anyone. It’s much better than the expensive salons. But here is a trick: go to Loreal’s virtual hair color try on feature on your mobile phone. Find the color that suits your face best. Then get the Hints of Nature equivalent of that color. You’ll look like a supermodel! I guarantee it!
