This article shows the mixing liquid for your STEP1 sachet that comes with your Honey, Walnut, Chocolate, Caramel, Chestnut or Deep Chestnut Shadow product. 

Grey coverage requires a special mixing liquid for the STEP1 sachet.

We recommend Apple Cider vinegar or Black tea but you can also use lemon juice. 

In this video we break it down for you to make it super simple, so you are confident to colour your hair at home with Desert Shadow organic hair colour. 

Important note: if you use our organic pre wash bar you must use the apple cider vinegar solution to mix your STEP 1. If you don't use the wash bar you can choose which liquid you like or go with what you have in the cupboard.

Apple cider vinegar is our first choice because it is good for the hair and makes it shiny.

Black tea or chai spice black tea is our second choice and recommended for people who have sensitive skin.

Lemon juice is our last choice. This one is not suitable for sensitive skins
