Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about choosing and using Essentially Natural ingredients.

Are hair and body dyes ready to use straight from the pack?

Some may be, but others need to be mixed or prepared first. The product page should explain whether the dye is ready to use or meant for DIY formulation.

Can I use the same dye for both hair and body application?

Not always. Some dyes are intended specifically for hair, while others may be used differently. It is important to follow the intended application shown on the product page.

Do natural dyes work the same way as synthetic dyes?

Not usually. Natural dyes can behave differently in terms of preparation, processing time, and final result, so it is best not to assume they will perform in exactly the same way.

Should I patch test before using a hair or body dye?

Yes, that is a sensible step, especially if you have sensitive skin or are using the product for the first time. A patch test can help you check how your skin responds before fuller use.

How do I know how strong the colour result will be?

Colour payoff can vary depending on the product, how it is prepared, how long it is left on, and your starting hair or skin tone. Product-specific guidance is the best place to start.
