About Our Products Natures Grey Busters are a selection of shades for the discerning colour user who wants a more natural alternative to the conventional chemical colours available on the High St. Hair Colour and Allergy Conventional colours almost always contain a mixture of peroxide, permanent dyes (commonly abbreviated as P.P.D. or P.T.D.) and ammonia or an ammonium compound (M.E.A which is often claimed as non ammonia). This mixture of chemicals can often cause discomfort or irritation on the scalp and can occasionally result in a serious allergic reaction. It is for this reason that these products carry this # warning symbol. In addition these products recommend that you have to take the trouble to undertake a skin test 48 hours prior to application to hopefully (not guaranteed) indicate whether you are likely to suffer an allergic reaction. Natures Grey Busters - PPD Free Hair Colour Natures Grey Busters is a more natural alternative with safe dyes (no allergenic P.PD.s or P.T.D.s) with the added benefits of being ammonia and peroxide free. There is no need for a 48 hour skin test prior to application and the product is so easy to apply as no mixing is required. The colour will last approximately 8 shampoos and will leave the hair in better condition than prior to application whilst colouring away up to 100% grey. As the colour fades naturally just apply again to the full head – there is no aggravation here with unsightly regrowths! Natures Grey Busters – the natural, safe way to colour away your grey! All conventional permanent colours and long-lasting semis are oxidative products. They contain compounds including PPDs or PTDs which are known to cause allergic reactions and irritation. Natures Grey Busters is different: a more natural alternative with safe dyes (no allergenic P.PD.s or P.T.D.s) with the added benefits of being ammonia and peroxide free. * Important - MEA is an ammonium compound. + Many permanent colours state that they are ammonia free while still containing MEA, an ammonium compound If you want more information about Hair Colours, please read our guide: Additional Facts About Our Hair Colours Why Natures Grey Busters are different to standard hair colourants 1.95% of all products available from High St retailers are oxidative dyes containing PPD or PTD. 2.The most recent research shows that almost 5% (and growing) of the population are allergic to PPD/PTD. 3.Both ingredients are in up to 90% of hair dye products in Europe and are the primary cause of allergic reactions that can vary from an itchy scalp to scabs forming on the scalp,rash on the body, or in the most extreme cases a swelling of the face and neck where medical treatment is then recommended as a matter of urgency. 4.Using oxidative colour is messy,often with an unpleasant odour and requires you to try and colour regrowth first (a difficult task to achieve on self application) then the remainder of hair or the colour can build up and show a demarcation line.

Everything You Need To Know About Hair Colours Find out more about conventional hair colours & dyes and why they can cause allergic reations. What is an oxidative Haircolour? •An oxidative haircolour is ANY haircolour that contains a tube (or bottle) of hair colour and a bottle of developer that are mixed together before application. •An oxidative haircolour is either a permanent haircolour or a “long lasting semi-permanent haircolour”. •Contains P.P.D. or P.T.D. within the colour formula (both allergenic sensitisers). What are the ingredients in oxidative haircolours that can cause irritation or allergic reactions? •Para-Phenylenediamine or more commonly called P.P.D. is a well known and extremely potent skin sensitizer. •Para-Toluenediamine or more commonly called P.T.D is again another well known and potent skin sensitizer. •Both ingredients are in up to 90% of hair dye products in Europe and are the primary cause of allergic reactions that can vary from an itchy scalp to scabs forming on the scalp,rash on the body, or in the most extreme cases a swelling of the face and neck where medical treatment is then recommended as a matter of urgency. •Ammonia is another common ingredient that is a well known irritant that has a high odour which is the ammonia evaporating in the colouring process. •Non ammonia oxidative colours normally contain Mono Ethanolamine which has no smell as it does not evaporate in the colour process and is again a well known irritant. Is a 48 hour patch test a guarantee that I will not suffer an allergic reaction? No it is not! The SCCP (Scientific Committee on Consumer Products) provided the following scientific opinions: •“The self test gives extremely large and uncontrolled variation in dose,duration of exposure and other factors crucial for the outcome.The validity as a relevant test for contact allergy to hair dye substances is therefore considered very low”. •The 48 hour test itself could actively sensitise the consumer with the possibility of a more serious reaction when the colour process is then applied. •N.B. the fact that you may have used a haircolour for many years without an adverse reaction is not a guarantee that you will not suffer an adverse reaction in future. Natures Greybusters is the more natural, healthier alternative that will colour away grey naturally. A true non oxidative semi permanent hair colour! |
