Gentle, effective colours

Pregnancy-friendly

Our Natural Highlights, our Organic and Mineral permanent hair colours and our Water Colour semi-permanents are made with gentle ingredients and without ammonia, which is why many of our clients choose them during pregnancy and while breastfeeding. We always suggest checking with your midwife or GP first, and a skin allergy test is still required. Find out more

Kind to sensitive skin

Our semi-permanent watercolours are PPD-free and are often suitable for people who have had a reaction to a regular hair dye. However we take allergy potential seriously and know that anyone can become allergic to any dye, at any time. All clients take a skin allergy test 48 hours before every colour to check for this. If you are already allergic our formulator Daniel Field can produce a bespoke alternative for you, which we would be more than happy to apply in our salons.

Cancer-care friendly

Many clients living with cancer, having chemotherapy or recovering from treatment choose our colours for their gentle ingredients. We recommend checking with your medical team before colouring. As well as the care we take choosing ingredients for our hair colourants, we finish every colour with a pH-balancing rinse to restore the hair’s natural pH and remove any traces of colour residue from the scalp.

No harsh chemicals

Our semi-permanent colours are called watercolours – as yes, that’s right, water is the catalyst to make this colour work. Water. Not ammonia or hydrogen peroxide. Our highlights are made from seaweed and are also ammonia-free, so there is none of the usual nasty smell.

Leaves hair soft & shiny

All our colour products including the highlighting formula, will leave your hair super-shiny, soft, and easy to manage. For blonde highlights that makes a real difference, as traditional bleaching strips blonde hair of moisture, resulting in crispy, straw-like strands.

Our Permanent Colouring System comes in every gorgeous shade imaginable. It is a two-part system, the first being the colourant which does not contain ammonia as traditional hair dyes do. Ammonia has been replaced by an alkali derived from coconut fatty acids. It is odourless so both you and your stylist benefit from the lack of fumes that irritate lungs and eyes. In its natural state your hair is acidic and this alkaline oil respects this. Our complimentary pH Balancing Rinse following the colour will restore the acid pH of your hair.

With the organic and mineral permanent colour we mix our own unique Fruitoxy Booster which is the second part of the system. It is made from a combination of natural essential fatty acids derived from fruit oils, chemically similar to the sebum found naturally in your scalp. It is still technically hydrogen peroxide (which is required to open the hair to lighten it so that the colour can penetrate) but unlike traditional hydrogen peroxide, it is much gentler on your hair and scalp. We find it helps protect the scalp whilst deeply moisturising the hair during the colouring process often leaving your hair in better condition than before colouring.

The Organic and Mineral Permanent Colouring System provides professional, effective fast permanent hair colouring, while being gentle on your hair and scalp. It is extremely rare that you would have an allergic reaction to our Permanent Colouring System however, as we care for your welfare, we now insist that you have a skin patch test at a consultation 48 hours prior to your colour.

Our Semi-permanent range known as Water Colour can be used either to gently blend away grey hair which lasts 4 to six weeks or it can provide a blanket colour coverage and lasts like a permanent tint. Your stylists will determine the level you require at your initial consultation. Unlike traditional semi-permanent colour, Water Colour does not contain hydrogen peroxide, ammonia, or any other synthetic replacement that strips colour from your hair. Instead, it simply adds colour by a gentle process that is kind to your scalp and hair.

A further advantage is that the process takes less time than traditional colourants, decreasing the time you need to be in the salon. Daniel Field created 46 shades of Water-based Colour in 1994 and it remains a gentle yet highly effective colourant for grey hair. Best of all it gives your hair an incredible high gloss shine that lasts for the length of the colour.

Apart from the dye pigments* themselves, our Water-based Colour avoids common allergens, and the rest of its ingredients are petrochemical-free.

*Water Colour still needs to use synthetic dye pigments so a patch test is compulsory before first use.

Water Colour is 100% vegan and mainly mineral and plant-based. It is SLS-free and biodegradable, and its plant ingredients are organically grown.

Our complimentary pH Balancing Rinse following the colour will restore the acid pH of your hair.

Please call the salon to find out more, including why Hair Organics Water Colour is a popular choice during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Seaweed used to lighten your hair? Something a bit witchery about that surely? Nothing short of ingenious is what we say. The trouble with being blonde is that traditional highlighting bleaches can make you dry, brittle, or even give you hair breakage. When you are looking for blonde highlights or to be all over blonde you want that hair to shine and look healthy and nourished.

Our Seaweed powder combined with our Fruitoxy booster allows just small and even bursts of oxygen to be released that lighten your hair as light as required, whilst fruit oils deeply moisturise and nourish your hair often leaving it in better condition than before the process. We believe that you will notice a big difference to your highlights in that they will have a glossy shine which cannot be achieved with traditional bleaching techniques.
