Herbal Hair Color - Light Brown

Details on Khadi light chestnut vegetal hair color

Why choose Khadi light chestnut hair color?

Khadi Châtain Clair dyes hair a warm, light brown (chestnut). Depending on the initial color and the proportion of gray, hair shines from a luminous, warm light brown to a rich light brown with reddish highlights. This plant-based color is also suitable as a pre-pigmentation, if you wish to color your hair in a dark shade.

Botanical colorants are particularly gentle on the hair, as they do not interfere with the hair's natural structure, unlike chemical hair colorants, but bind to the hair in a thin, protective layer. Hence the fact that the hair's initial color determines the individual result of vegetable coloring.

Why use light chestnut organic plant color?

How do I achieve organic light chestnut color?

All vegetable colors are different, so how do you prepare the product and the hair before application?

In simple terms, chemical coloring removes the hair's natural pigments from within the hair fiber and replaces them with chemical dyes. The original color can therefore be completely altered. But since natural pigments influence hair structure, repeated chemical coloring can make hair brittle and dull.

In contrast, 100% plant-based colorants only fix the color to the outer layers of the hair fiber, forming a protective sheath around the hair. Depending on how the color is applied, this sheath can provide more or less coverage, thus influencing the final color.

Application techniques: from balayage to fully colored hair

• Colors hair to a warm, light chestnut color.
• High color opacity, even on gray to white hair.
• Strengthens and conditions hair, with natural, brilliant color radiance.

How to care for light chestnut organic hair color?

Here are a few tips for using organic light chestnut hair color

Instructions for use enclosed in the box, in English, French, Italian and German. Khadi Châtain Clair can be mixed with all Khadi colorants:

• with Khadi Senna Cassia or Khadi Blond to refresh the color.
• with Khadi Natural Hazelnut Brown for a deeper, softer sandy shade.
• with Khadi Marron Foncé for more intense, fresher shades.
• with Khadi Mèches Dorées for reddish-brown to copper-brown shades.
• with Khadi Blon Moyen for intense warm dark blond.
• with Khadi Henna or other red tones for light to intense red-brown shades.

Precautions for use of Khadi light chestnut organic plant color

• Be careful not to inhale the fine powder.
• Read instructions carefully for best color results.
• Bear in mind that Khadi vegetable colorants color hair permanently (with the exception of Khadi Senna/Cassia), so it's best to test a strand before using for the first time to avoid an unsuitable result.
• In the case of light, gray or white hair (or regrowth ), natural dyes containing a high level of indigo pigments (in dark brown, black or pure indigo shades) can cause undesirable greenish coloration during coloring. To avoid such results, we advise you not to use these colors directly on light or gray hair, but to pre-pigment with Khadi Henna (Henna Pur or Henna Amla Jatropha). So proceed with a 2-step coloring process:
  1. Color the hair (or only the roots if treating regrowth) with a Khadi Henna shade, finishing with a rinse before moving directly on to point 2.
  2. Color the hair (or only the roots in the case of regrowth treatment) with the chosen dark color, giving an even color without a greenish tint.
• Khadi Indigo can be used as a pre-pigmentation (similar to the previous point) to reduce the hint of red color for Khadi Châtain Clair or Brun Noisette Naturel.
• It is advisable not to mix oils or oily products with Khadi coloring powders, but Khadi hair oils can be used 24 hours after coloring to improve hold: apply oil 24 hours after coloring, leave on for an hour and then wash hair with shampoo.
