The alternative to chemicals! (Transition from chemical-red to red-PHF)

To my situation: I dye for about 4 years on my long hair with Garnier Nutrisse in color FireRed / Red Cherry and was just initially very impressed by the profound, brilliant red, which gave with the coloring. Also aware of the burden of hair by the hair color I dyed good whatsoever just the approach. Still, I asked out of the blue about 6 months ago for the first time found that my hair broke into the tips, and suddenly were dull and lackluster. By nature I have thick, shiny, over long hair (but just unfortunately in color stray dog), to which I was just envy at the beginning of chemical coloration often (should please not sound arrogant!) Then the shock Anyway: My hair was suddenly like straw !!! So first cut a good piece of lace, but it was just getting worse; the 'straw structure withdrew sometime high up in the neck !!

Since I am in his thirties and is choking one hand gray hair in the bud ;-) and other hand red hair just love, I knew I that I had to find an alternative to chemical mace (because out growing indeed simply look real stupid.) After thorough information about the Khadi PHF (eg's are super Info-videos on YouTube just as far as the mixing!), I bought a package from Amazon and the same color a test strand. I had, because of the number of horror stories ("hair after Khadi unkämmbar", "even duller than before," "now Pumuckel" etc.) fear for my still remaining straw on the head.

So I touched the strand test a bag of black tea with 50 ml of boiling water and a hazelnut-sized Balea silicone-free flushing mixed among them until everything had a creamy consistency. Then I have all clapped on a test strand behind his ear, wrapped with aluminum foil and draufgesetzt a Basque beret of felt angefönt short again and sat down for about 1.5 hours in the sun. Now at last the result:

My Garnier with "Red Cherry" dark dyed hair have been brightened! The madness! The sample streak now shines in a brilliant, shining copper, is buttery soft and smooth and fragrant but actually to Earl Grey tea, -P I am thrilled! Va because one can mix the Khadifarben with each other and I now consider to achieve a bit of a darker result, interfere a brown tone.

My conclusion at a glance:
+ Unproblematic mixing the paint
+ In my opinion, no longer a mess in the bathroom as the chemistry club
+ Clear: long exposure time, but I see the hair dye just as a beauty program, in which I relax in the exposure with beautiful pursuits - think positive! : O)
+ Neutral, natural smell of henna (not unpleasant, VA is no longer burning a chemical now the lung away! If I had to temporarily Garnier stormed out of the bathroom and get outside air, because the coloration smelled so sharp!)
+++ RESULT !!!

Therefore, of course, very subjective Recommendation: girls, steer clear of the chemicals! My hair was really really broken from the dyeing and awaken with the PHF now at least seems to be healthy again - I think it is not even. I let the chemical out now growing among the PHF staining and then only PHF to my hair. I hope I could you facilitate my review your decision. Good luck! :-)
