PHYTO Phytocolor Permanent Hair Color with Botanical Pigments, 100% Grey Hair Coverage, Ammonia-free, PPD-free, Resorcin-free, 0.42 oz

I am so happy a friend told me about this product. It smells so good, unlike most hair coloring products that reek of chemicals. I can tell it's made from gentler, natural products because it didn't burn my eyes when I was washing it out. Even with eyes closed, you always end up getting some into your eyes (especially if you're rinsing in the shower) and with other products my eyes would burn really badly. It also did a good job with gray coverage but you do need to keep it on for the full 45 minutes indicated in the directions if you have gray hair. The color does come out slightly darker than what I expected - so the level 4 in this product is probably closer to what you'd expect from a 3. It didn't bother me, but I would suggest you start out a level lighter than you normally would the first time just to be safe.

Color was easy to apply and true to color chart .no smell hair was nice and soft color stayed for 2 months gray coverage was good . Would but again but it was not available , so I went with a different brand that was more expensive however not as pleased.

Ok, first about the color. I think my conclusion is that the colors are just gonna come out a bit differently on different people's hair and you may have to try different ones til you find the one that works for you. I went with 5.7 light chestnut brown, and it turned out a DARK, chocolate brown. I purposefully didn't go with the chestnut brown because of the reviews, thinking the *light* chestnut brown would be more like a medium brown, but it was definitely dark brown for me (darker than pics of the same color for some others). Not bad, thankfully I look okay with a darker hue, but I'm gonna progressively try lighter shades until I get to the one I actually want. Regarding coverage, I'd say the grey coverage is very good. There are always a sneaky few that I somehow miss, but otherwise it covered my roots well. The formula is definitely not too drying. I used a different brand before (with ammonia) and it took a couple weeks for my hair to get back to a normal moisture level, after very dedicated conditioning and moisturizers. Phyto didn't dry my hair out at all, so that was really great, especially as a curly haired gal. I am disappointed by one thing, though. The other brand I tried before, with ammonia), resulted in my hair falling out in larger amounts than my non-colored hair. I read that that's a pretty common result of the chemicals, so that's why I wanted to try Phyto to see if it would be different. So far it hasn't improved, though - my hair is still falling out at the same larger amount. I'm hopeful this may still improve in time, but it may be that Phyto is no different in that way. Still a great product, though, and I like that it seems to be gentler chemicals, so I will continue to use and work on finding the best color for me.

Intense chestnut brown is a good shade for naturally black hair that shines copper or reddish in sunlight. The undertone will be an ever so slightly cooler red but definitely not too cool. Looks natural. From the reviews I have read, if you use shade numbers lower than those in the 4s, even on naturally black hair, it will be very dark and perhaps unnatural looking. YMMV, especially if you are starting with lighter hair or if you have already dyed your hair. I picked this hair dye because it is top rated - IIRC by Good Housekeeping. I'm also a previous user of Phyto products like Defrisant. Not an easy to find product in the US AFAIK. I like my natural hair color and didn't want to dye my hair...until I had streaks of grey at my temples. It's not much but noticeable when I put my reading or sunglasses on my head. Easy to use. Covered my greys. (I have only seen two very, very short regrowing grey hairs that I plucked that didn't take the color, probably because they are so short and didn't get enough dye on them.) Understanding hair color for a novice can be tough. I know people in the hair business and still can't quite wrap my head around translating color theory to match my natural hair's undertones by using the stuff at, say, Sally's. I'm looking for a box dye that takes the guess work out of shade mixing. Phyto appears to have my back. I'll repost if the grey coverage doesn't last, the color turns weird after many washes, etc.

This hair color was ranked #1 by Better Homes and Gardens. It was easy to use and the smell was nice. The volume of each component was less than other products but one package was enough for my thick, medium length hair. The color was darker than displayed on the chart, but I expected that. I might try a lighter shade next time, but this one is the same as I have been using in other products. I will use it again. It covered my gray very well. I did leave it on for longer than the 30 minutes. No irritation at all, which I usually experience with other brands.

Ottima colorazione, la trovo molto più delicata sulla cute rispetto ad altre marche che usavo. La compro e ricompro da anni.
