Trying to find great safe hair color has become a kind of quest for me that has become more so as I hear from so many women dealing with mild sensitivities to some downright serious allergic reactions to hair color.

Going gray is an option that works beautifully for some but it's not the best solution for everyone me included so I am always on the look out for a solution.

The All Important Ingredients

When you are dealing with sensitivities or just wanting to find a safer product it's all about the ingredients so I was pleased with what Palette By Nature does not contain.

* No PPD

* No Amines

* No Ammonia

* No Peroxide

* No Resorcinol

* No Parabens

* No Phthalates

* No GMO's

* No Glutens

* No Nano

* No Encapsulates

* No Animal Testing

* No Petroleum Based Ingredients

* No Dioxanes

* No PVC

* No EDTA

It was good to see so many problem ingredients left out of a hair coloring product. No ppd in particular is unusual since this is the ingredient that companies typically use to help color last but this is also the ingredient that seems to cause the greatest allergic reactions. The ingredients in Palette by Nature are a big improvement over most hair color products.

Applying Palette by Nature

I ordered my color. I usually choose a lighter blonde which 10N usually gives me but I was looking for something a little darker and warmer so chose 9N also called Light Natural Blonde.

SanoTint Another Safer Hair Dye

This is probably more me just giving you a heads up on another safer hair dye than a product review because I bought SanoTint, did my patch test and went no further.

SanoTint was my latest attempt at testing out safer permanent products to color hair. This hair dye does contain natural ingredients and as with most permanent hair coloring products, chemicals but the chemical ingredients used are better than many brands of hair color – no or low ppd, no ammonia, parabens, heavy metals, etc.

SanoTint comes in several different formulas. One with low levels of ppd, one without ppd and a lightening kit. I chose the one without ppd, SanoTint Light. I was excited to find another hair dye that will work for me because of course I'm thinking it is the ppd that causes me problems. Right?…… Wrong. I'll be darned but something else in these products bother me.

I am embarrassed to admit but I was tempted to skip the patch test before using this product. I know…. but then I realized I would not be able to face you all if I had but I honestly thought without ppd it would be fine. Anyway, I did my patch test strictly as a formality you know and was so surprised to experience burning and itching. What the heck! I am so glad I did not use this all over my head.

My first thought was that there was a mistake and I had the wrong formula but nope that's not it. So, now what's the problem?

The next ingredient I had to consider was the hydrogen peroxide. The product I have been using for awhile now without any issue is Palette by Nature and there is no hydrogen peroxide in it. Before that I was using Tints of Nature without any problems but it contains pharmacuetical grade hydrogen peroxide so either I have become more sensitive to hydrogen peroxide or it's something else. I'll have to experiment a little more to figure this out.

For you however, SanoTint is another product to consider if you are trying to find a safer hair colorant or you want to try a product without ppd. Just please do your patch test first each and every time you color. My experience is just my experience. This product did not work out for me but it might for you….
