FAQs
Is Radico Colour Me Organic truly 100% organic?
Yes, it is certified by USDA and EcoCert as a 100% organic hair color, free from chemicals like PPD, ammonia, peroxide, and synthetic additives.
How long does the color last?
The longevity varies depending on hair type, wash frequency, and aftercare. Typically, organic colors last 4-6 weeks, gradually fading.
Can I use this if I have grey hair?
Yes, it can cover grey hair, but the resulting color may be lighter or a different shade on grey strands compared to non-grey hair. A strand test is recommended.
What is the difference between this and chemical hair dyes?
This organic dye uses only natural herbs and does not contain harsh chemicals, making it gentler. Chemical dyes often use synthetic compounds for faster, more drastic color changes but can be harsher on hair and scalp.
How much product do I need for one application?
The amount needed depends on hair length and thickness. Typically, one 100g pack is sufficient for shoulder-length hair. Longer or thicker hair may require more.
Can I use other hair products after coloring?
Yes, but it's best to use sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners to help preserve the color. Avoid harsh chemical treatments immediately after coloring.
Does it have any smell?
It has a natural, earthy herbal scent, which is generally considered pleasant and far less pungent than the chemical smell of synthetic dyes.
Troubleshooting
Color is too light or not vibrant enough
Ensure hair was properly prepared (clean and dry). Apply a second coat if necessary. For darker results, consider leaving the paste on longer or using it on a lighter base color. Strand testing beforehand can help predict the outcome.
Uneven color distribution
Ensure thorough and even application from roots to tips. Section hair carefully and use enough product. Check that all strands are fully saturated with the paste.
Scalp irritation or allergic reaction
Discontinue use immediately. Rinse hair thoroughly with water. Consult a healthcare professional if symptoms persist. Always perform a patch test 48 hours prior to application.
Product doesn't rinse out completely
Rinse hair multiple times with lukewarm water. Use a gentle conditioner to help loosen any remaining residue. Avoid using shampoo immediately after application as this can strip the color.
