Most hair coloring agents rely on harsh chemicals like hydrogen peroxide or  ammonia to strip the hair and allow it to “take”, or absorb, the chemical color applied to it. The word “natural” on a bottle of hair color doesn’t necessarily mean chemical-free; some brands commonly found in natural products stores rely on peroxide to prepare the hair for their colorants. What effect do these chemicals have on the hair? First, they weaken and destroy  the hair shaft over time. Additionally, many of the chemical hair colorants use various petroleum or coal tar-based ingredients derived from the environmentally harmful processing of oil or coal tar-based ingredients that have been found,over time, to increase the long-term risk of various forms of cancer. In contrast, henna has a long history as a safe, gentle hair color. The Food and  Drug Administration has issued a monograph that approves henna for this use; henna is one of a select group of natural products to achieve official FDA recognition.

Henna coats each hair shaft with a natural, semi-permanent protein  called hennatannic acid. Heat causes the hennatannic acid to cling to the proteins found in the hair (or nails and skin, if desired). Because henna coats and seals the hair shaft, it helps protect the hair from damaging effects of sun, salt, chlorine, wind and pollution in the environment. It can help miminize split ends and acts as “hair insurance” if you spend a lot of time in the sun, surf or wind. In addition to protecting the hair shaft, henna will tighten the hair cuticle and create a more solid surface which reflects light; the result is gleaming, lustrous hair. Rather than producing dramatic color changes, henna enhances and  deepens existing color. The darker your natural color, the less drastic the change will be inyour natural color. Because the color from henna is transparent or “see through,” henna cannot lighten dark hair; it will, however, add highlights to dark hair and can darken the color of lighter hair.

 Light Mountain Hair Color is a natural product, subject to variations from harvest to harvest; it responds somewhat differently to different hair conditions and colors. Because of this variability, it is essential that you take a “swatch test” or “strand test,” in which the effects of the hair color are tested on a very small section of hair, before using any Light Mountain product. Light Mountain has made this process easy for you by providing complete, step-by-step, start-to-finish instructions for testing and using our products. If, after doing the swatch test, you find that the color is not what you expected,simply return the box with your purchase receipt to the address listed in the instructions for a full refund of the purchase price not to exceed the MSRP. Shipping & Handling not included.

 Light Mountain Natural Hair Color does not test any of our ingredients on animals  Light Mountain Natural Hair Color uses NO animal-based ingredients, ever.  Light Mountain Hair Color is 100% botanical hair color  Light Mountain uses only Lawsonia inermis (henna), Indigofera tinctoria (indigo) and Cassia auriculata (cassia).
