Korus Essential Herbal Hair Color (Soft Black) - 100g | with Henna, Amla, Aritha, etc.

Needed to stay away from chemical dyes and gave this a try, after avoiding chemical dyes for a few years I was getting rather grey esp at the front. Instructions were easy and after reading other reviews slightly edited to suit so I added enough warm water to make a thick paste and also let most of the wet dry out of my hair after washing. Using a thicker mix worked well and was easier and less messy than a runnier mix and after wrapping head/hair in clingfilm I left it for almost 3hrs before rinsing with water. I'm really pleased with the results, it covered the grey well but without being too much of a solid block coverage of colour leaving subtle colour changes which makes it look more natural. I'm 24hrs in so haven't washed it with shampoo yet and while it feels a little dry it's not bad and when I do wash it I'll do a coconut, shea, cocoa butter hair mask which shall soften and moisturise my hair. Really pleased, I used the light brown colour. Will use again.

I bought this product as I wanted to try something natural. Unfortunately it does not cover grey at all. It gives normal hair a nice colour but leaves all the greys. So not one for me.

So I have never used Henna products before, so this was a totally new experience for me. I had everything set up, gloves, dark towels, vaseline for hair line/ears, old shower cap. When I mixed the product up after having washed my hair the night before. There wasn't a guide to how much to put in, to just mix it with warm water to a curd like consistency. I think I might have used quite a bit of the product, i was just guessing really.I found the application of it a bit messy, probably due to the consistency of the mixture. I left it on for the stated time and rinsed. It said not to use shampoo when rinsing off. As a result my hair felt quite heavy after. I have fine hair so that probably didn't help. It felt quite dry also. The colour wasn't as dark as I was expecting, it added a hint of brown and my grey hairs were still very viseable. I think it just added a warm hue to my hair. It did look better after a wash the next day, looked a little healthier and richer.I think I will probably stick to my usual hair dye as it covers the grey areas better. Maybe I didn't leave it on long enough.The packaging is compact and I think maybe you would get a couple of applications on at a guess. Depending on your hair length and thickness of course.

Nice and easy to use no horrible smell which is amazing covers my greys great

This hair colour is very cheap.i leave colour on my hair for 2 hour,but there is no result.i am disappointed with this product..i request please no one go for it.

I usually by these herbs separately, which requires some kind of work and is very time consuming. Korus made a good job at creating a product that is very handy, great quality and a time saver too!Using natural herbs has been proven to boost hair growth and vibrancy of colours, reducing dandruff and maintaining a healthy scalps.Don't forget that hair are basically dead from the scalp to the lengths: giving them plenty of care with natural products and taking care of your scalp is your best shot at keeping a healthy head of hair.

It’s not true, it’s not cover darker colours. Hairs looks much healthier as before.

I have been using Henna for a good 15 years. For the first three years, I used the luscious high street brand, but for over ten years I have used 100% henna, followed by 100% indigo for the darker colour. I have never used a henna mix like this before. It's similar to henna to prepare, mixing in the powder, adding luke warm water to form a paste. First thing to note, is there are little instructions with this, so it doesn't tell you how much powder to use or how much water to add. I currently have medium length hair, reaching just below my shoulder blades. I used the whole packet, and just kept adding bits of water until it resembled a henna paste. I put a Vaseline barrier around my head and ears and put rubber gloves on to apply the paste to my hair. I always start just above my ears, as although I don't have that many grey hairs, that's where they always are. Once it's all applied, I wrapped my hair in cling film. (If you are new to this, use at least two dark towels - 1 to stand on whilst applying and 1 around your shoulders. Wear dark, old clothes). It took about 20-30 minutes to fully apply, which is normal. It says to leave on for two hours, which is not long for henna at all. I decided to wash it off just after 3 hours from first applying it, so a good 2.5 hours all over. It also says you cant shampoo for two hours. With henna, I shampoo and blow dry straight away so I can use indigo, but I didn't shampoo it, just rinsed with lots and lots of water. It felt disgusting. It really needed shampooing and just felt yacky, until I shampooed it. First observation - this is not just henna. If you want the vibrant red, glossy sheen from henna, then do not use this. I was dark straight away. For me, the colour was perfect as I want to be dark, but it's no good if you want to be red. Secondly, because its not pure henna, my hair was so dry, it was like straw. I had to use a hair mask for 3 days in a row just to try and repair the damage to my hair. My greys were covered fully, the colour was even all over, so overall I was very happy with the colour. I would not use this again, and I will revert back to my normal henna and indigo combo, even though it takes me a good 6-7 hours to complete the process.
