“Grey Cover”

★★★★★

written by Savannah320 on 23/03/2023

I have been using this for about 4 years after I had a sudden very bad allergic reaction to a permanent Hair colourant. I chose it because it uses no ammonia or hydrogen peroxide or parabens. I find it very good. I always wash my hair first and let it dry. Then apply the colourant quite thickly and don't use any heat but leave it on for up to 2.5 hours. When I come to rinse it out, as soon as the water is more or less clear, I towel dry my hair, Comb gently out while hair is wet and leave to dry naturally. The longer the dye is in contact with my hair the deeper the colour. I find that after one application the colour lasts for about 3.5 weeks or sometimes longer. Although I have long hair, I find one little bottle will do me for 3 or 4 applications. The bottle has to be squeezed hard to get the dye out which is tiring on the fingers as the plastic is very thick. That's my only complaint. I wash my hair once a week and then I use a conditioner.

“Waste of time”

★☆☆☆☆

written by CamilaMcCabe on 18/09/2021

Got 2 bottles of blk/blue. Although I've had to reaction this was a total waste of time. Colour does not take to hair and washes straight out after application. Hair looks exactly as it was before dye was put on. Does NOT cover any grey. Please don't waste ur money buying this product.

“Waste of Money and time.”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Devenq342 on 02/11/2020

The product is totally waste of money. I used Blue Black 430. It did not cover my grey hair at all. Infect my grey hair turned to light sky blue colour. I specifically call customer help line to ask that is blue colour is going to give big effect or black, so he said no blue colour is just give a shine. Absolutely this is not for cover grey hair.

“Life saver!!”

★★★★☆

written by Delaney435 on 02/09/2019

I'm a 48 year old woman and, have an allergy to most hair dyes!!..I've had trouble accepting my greys over the past few years or so & this really got me down. I discovered this product whilst doing the usual googling. I'm so pleased with the results. It has covered all the greys and left my hair feel healthy too. I will be definitely buying again!! LEAVE ON FOR 45 MINUTES AND USE HEAT TO GET BEST RESULTS!!

“TOTAL WASTE OF TIME & MONEY”

★☆☆☆☆

written by MyaBeebe359 on 19/04/2017

After reading the reviews and disregarding the negative ones thought I would try it for myself. Was looking for a "natural" colourant and getting desperate. Well, I followed the instructions and even took a hairdryer to the colour when on my head for 10 minutes (as a previousreviewer had suggested). I then wrapped my hair in the plastic hood and coverd it with a towel (to keep the heat in) and randomly blasted the hairdryer over it trying to keep warmth on the colour. My efforts were completely wasted, my hair doesn't even feel nice afterwards (no conditioner included in the box). I would never recommend this. And so far have not come across a ppd free semi-permanent colour that actually works. So my search goes on....

“Waste of money”

★☆☆☆☆

written by kjug on 22/02/2017

This product is totally waste of money and would not recommend to anyone. It did not cover a single grey hair. Having thick/heavy long hair, it took me 50 mins to apply + waited 40 mins before I washed my hair. applying to my hair.

“NO COVERAGE AT ALL!”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Bradshaw1954 on 25/08/2016

This product did not work. I tried 3 different shades too. Not only did it not cover any grey hair, it didn't colour my hair at all! Waste of money. Will never recommend.

“Excellent Grey coverage”

★★★★☆

written by melaniejane1811 on 22/07/2016

After dying my hair for 20yrs the last 3 times I coloured I got a reaction getting worse each time to which my gp told me if I did it again id end up in hospital as my neck swelled the 3rd time which affected my breathing, so at the age of 42 and getting married this year I didnt want to be grey just yet. I did lots of research on the internet and found grey busters so I ordered a bottle, being scared I made sure I did the 48 hr tests had no reaction so went ahead, I left colour on for 45 minutes with the plastic hood on to give heat, I felt no tingling or discomfort. Washed the colour off and it worked the grey had gone and the colour was lovely and looked so healthy. I do it every 4 weeks but its great as u can use the same bottle theres no waste with this colour. Id say its an excellent buy.

“Great product.”

★★★★★

written by kzHopkins46 on 08/12/2015

Found this product after a long search for a non allergenic dye suitable for beards. I have tried lots of products that cause skin irritation and rash and can honestly say that this is the best I've come across . It smells fine and doesn't stain the skin - You will need to be applied every few days but its better than using harsh chemicals on a beard that will need trimming anyway. You'll have to cover with the plastic bag but this will be easy to manage and doesn't require great ingenuity to tie it in place - just remember not to cover the nostrils -lol !! and you should survive the ordeal and look much better when it all done !!!! Highly recommended !!

“Does Not Cover Grey Hair”

★☆☆☆☆

written by SanaaJensen on 21/11/2015

I purchased the Blue Black shade to cover my grey roots and replenish slightly faded black permanent hair dye. There is no difference at all to my hair colour - my greys are still 100% grey with no hint of colour to them and the faded black is still very faded. The hair dye has a weird chemical smell which has lingered on my hair and my hair feels slightly dryer than it did before I used the dye. I followed the instructions to the letter - washed my hair with a clarifying shampoo, no conditioner the night before and left the dye on dry hair for 40 minutes which is the maximum time stated. It was a waste of time and money. So, if you want to cover grey hair without bleach, don't waste your money on Nature's Grey Busters because it doesn't do what it says on the box!

“No problems!”

★★★★☆

written by Fitzgerald181 on 26/09/2014

I suffer from allergies of various triggers, hair dye being amongst them. I've been using Natures Grey Busters for approx. 7 years with no problems. Don't expect the coverage of a chemical dye and you won't be disappointed. I like to mix colours to give a shade I like, usually mahogany and medium brown it gives a lovely reddish brown and looks natural. My hair condition afterwards is wonderful and I find I don't need to wash my hair for at least 3 days. I get a couple of applications as my hair is short. Only downside is that you have to order it online, I remember when they stocked this in Morrisons! Oh,and the cost.,but saying that it's a small price to pay to keep looking younger!

“I have finally found the answer!”

★★★★★

written by Teazle on 31/05/2014

My very dark brown/black hair had started to go grey. I tried many well advertised hair dyes and ended up with a horrific allergic reaction which I finally found out was due to PPD in the dye. For a while I tried natural henna, but after a while this no longer covered grey and was a very long and messy process. I found Natures Grey Busters whilst searching on line. So I cautiously gave it a go. I tested on my skin first for 24 hours - great, no reaction, took a deep breath and went ahead with the application. No itching, no burning and only 40 minutes to wait until rinsing off. Brilliant!! All grey covered, beautiful shiny condition - and there's my hair back again. It lasted almost three weeks (and I wash my hair every three days) and the next application had an even deeper effect. This is the solution to one of my life bug-bears sorted out. Thank you.

“Waste of money!”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 18/04/2014

I was delighted when I found this product as I am allergic to hair dyes. I followed the instructions exactly and although my hair became slightly darker, the few greys I have were not covered at all. The next couple of times I left the product on my hair for double the amount of time. It still made no difference to the grey hairs. A complete waste of money!

“Covered my nearly pure white hair perfectly. ”

★★★★☆

written by Creamcheeze on 06/07/2013

I'm neurotic about toxic chemicals so thought I'd try this product after trying a few other natural varieties. This is the best fore without doubt. I get a nice sandy/dark blonde but I so leave it on for 45-hour & give it a blast with hairdryer. No reaction & I like the fact that one bottle lasts me several applications, whereas other dyes must be thrown out. Only down side I guess is that it fades but to be honest, it takes quite a few shampoos before I need to reapply. I probably do it once every 4 weeks.

“Allergic reaction!”

★☆☆☆☆

written by 12347 on 24/01/2013

I bought this product as I thought it would be okay seeing as I am allergic to chemical hair dyes, how wrong was I!!!! After 5 minutes of application one of my ears started burning and swelled up. Nver EVER trust what you read on the internet! This is NOT a safe dye, if you suffer with any allergy to hair dye DO NOT USE THIS PRODUCT. You have been warned!!

I used Natures Grey Buster a few years ago & suffered an extreme reaction - Face swelled, Scalp became inflamed with blisters , blisters spread to my Ears & Neck.Then they burst & Bled, had to have 2 weeks of Hospital treatment. I contacted the Company and the Man I spoke to was extemely rude, said " it couldn't be caused by his product," and that in 20 years of sell NGB they had NEVER had any complaints. No apology from him. Thought it had been Discontinued ???

“Works Well, Needs a Lot of Heat!”

★★★★★

written by on 12/12/2012

This product is amazing, it really works! But it does need a lot of heat. I applied the dark brown, and covered my hair with the plastic cap. I have a hood dryer at home, and I sat under the hood for an hour with the dye on my hair, with the heat setting on low. When I first rinsed my hair out, I could see that my grey hairs were covered, but not as dark as my natural hair. Then, I put my hair in curlers to dry it, and sat under the dyer again for an hour. When my hair was dry and I took out my curlers, I could see that the colour had fully developed, and covered my grey 100%. Heat is the key!

“dye didnt work”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 09/03/2012

I used this product several times. i had no reaction to it despite severe dermotitis, which is good. but each time the colour just washed out, no coverage of grey at all. i wrote to the manufacturer, and they suggested a darker product and more time (c45mins), but the same happened. It seems then that for some hair types it doesnt work.

“Simple, effective and safe”

★★★★☆

written by on 28/02/2012

I have used this dye four times now. I'm about 30-40% grey, and have sensitive skin (eczema and allergies). I had no problem with this. The first time I used it, some greys where still visible after, but the second time I left it on a little longer and it covered them well. The colours are good with a cool-ish tone. I have used med/light/dark brown and not mahogany as they recommend against this on grey hair. If your not expecting a salon result you wont be dissapointed. I'm going to try mixing med and dark brown next time to give it a bit more ooomph.

“Does not do as advertised”

★★☆☆☆

written by Finn2011 on 20/12/2011

Firstly the colours I purchased (light and medium natural brown) are nothing like how they appear online. Online they look like nice natural cool browns, but when they arrived the hair sample image looked noticeably red/warm coloured. When I applied it the dye had a fair amount of red in. Luckily, or unluckily for some the dye did not really take so no change, and it did not cover my greys at all. I know my hair is not that resistant because I have used other brands of temporary to semi perm colour and my greys have been blended in. All in all not very pleased!
