So I heard that there is a way to color your hair naturally but I don't know how.
Can someone tell me how to make my hair different colours like Deep dark brown but still can be seen as brown, DARK BLACK, or a really super dark purple that kinda looks black

Dear Scott: I am thinking about coloring my hair and would like to know if you know anything about the all-natural hair color products. I have started getting a lot of gray hair. I saw Simply Organics and Organic Color Systems online and some others in the drugstore. I am afraid of having chemicals on my skin or hair, but I just can't stand this gray! Do you recommend these products as a natural way to color my hair? Do they work as well as the ones with chemicals in them? Why would anyone use hair color with chemicals in it when there is a natural way to do it?
ANSWER:
Their showy packages of information arrived in the mail within days of registering and plenty of phone calls came from sales people trying to sell me a special introductory package. But when I asked them how they can advertise "natural" hair color with peroxide as the activating ingredient, I couldn't get anyone to answer me. The phone calls stopped, too.
Peroxide is used to open the cuticle layer of the hair and is necessary for the deposit of pigment in permanent hair color. Many hair color companies advertise a product as "natural" but really have only removed some of the other scary sounding ingredients. When used properly, most of these ingredients are no more harmful than peroxide and help to produce longer lasting color with more accurate end results. Even semi-permanent color has some kind of activator although they claim to be peroxide free. Without the peroxide, they are terrible.
There really isn't any "natural" hair color other than henna that I know of. Henna plant was used by the ancient Egyptians. Crushing berries to produce the variations of color is simplified since then but the henna product is still a pain. It must be mixed up a day ahead and the processing time can be up to 4 hours. The results are iffy, too. I'm going to stick with modern technology and get it done right in 20 minutes.

Henna, for example, is a natural hair color that is incredibly drying to the hair shaft, Begoun says. And cosmetics scientists at TheBeautyBrains.com say that henna will only temporarily tint your hair. Although most so-called natural hair-color products use fewer chemicals than most drugstore hair colors, experts say that any change to natural hair color causes hair damage. Experts suggest using the gentlest formula that will yield your desired color and using it as infrequently as possible.
Herbatint & Naturetint are two permanent hair colors that use a smaller amount of hair dye chemicals in conjunction with natural ingredients. Both have fairly decent ratings at MakeupAlley.com (though each gets only a handful of reviews).
Here's a new article I found re: henna, which is supposed to be better for you than reg. box dye. It's a good read!
Google: Henna for Hair Warnings.
If youâre using Henna which says itâs going to turn your hair from black to blonde, then it seems like your using compound Henna, which is not 100% natural. Without getting too scientific, compound henna is when you mix the Lawson in with a chemical like, metallic salts. The most commonly used ones are Copper, Lead acetate and Nickel. This can arguably damage your hair, leaving it dry, brittle and coarse.
