Me Time required
Organic hair colours need time to deposit colour on your hair. Please allow the following amount of time for your colour treatment.
Non Grey coverage : 1 hr +
Grey coverage : 3 hrs
Amount of product required
Short hair & root touch ups - 1/2 pack
Medium hair - 1 pack
Long hair - 1 to 1.5 packs
Super long hair - 2 to 3 packs
Thick hair - will need to add an extra 1/4 pack for short hair and 1/2 (short to medium) to 3/4 pack (for long hair)
*Please note - repeated use will see your colour become richer and in some cases darker. Once you achieve the colour shade you like on the lengths, simply apply to the roots only and do a full application every 4th or 5th time to boost the colour at the ends. This will save time and product and ensure you have an even colour all over.
Ingredients
Cassia auriculata, Indigofera tinctoria, Lawsonia inermis, embilica oficialis, Aloe barbadensis.
Important
*We recommend a strand test to determine desired processing time and final colour result. Colour resistant hair will require the longer period for processing time. Not recommended for people who wish to bleach or lighten their hair blonde in the future. Strand test instructions can be found here

Very happy
I am so happy to have found this all natural, Aussie owned and made product! I am transitioning away from shampoo/conditioner and hair dye. I have blonde foil highlights growing out of my hair and Charmaine was super helpful in helping me choose a colour. I ended up mixing Caramel Shadow and Honey Shadow which has left a gorgeous copper-y hue to my highlights which I adore. All the information in the packs and online were super helpful as I navigated my first time using the colour. I have super thick hair just past my shoulders and I used 4 packs which was way too much I could have gotten away with 2.5 I think. I also have a 'crown' of greys along my hair line which I was curious to see how that worked but again I am super happy with the coverage; you can see the greys are lighter in colour but they don't stand out - which was a concern I had prior to using the dye. I am a convert - good bye toxic hair products for good! Thank you Charmaine/Desert Shadow!

Honey shadow.
I was just hoping to cover the greys and eventually go lighter as my old colour grows out. It has coloured the greys a lovely light brown/golden blond. I hope the colour doesn't fade too quickly. I used another brand last time and it faded within a few washes. It has given my hair a beautiful shine and highlighted the lighter brown in my hair. So far, so good!!

Honey Shadow hair colour
This is a beautiful colour that looks very natural on light coloured hair. It blends well into my original colour when growing out. I only need to apply once every 4-5 weeks to cover roots. It’s my favourite colour in this range. It does take a few hours to do, but I find it much gentler than the commercial ‘natural’ hair colourants. When I used those, my hair used to fall out a lot. But Honey Shadow has no chemicals so my hair is very healthy now,

Honey Shadow
Comprehensive instructions, good amount of product for mid-length hair, Very nice result. and I enjoyed the QR code scanner instructional links. My local Go Vita has recently picked up the Desert Shadow 6jair dye range, but they do not have the colour I need in stock. I ordered the product online instead, Online buying was easy, delivery was quick, service friendly and warm, a personal message inside the box was very lovely. Postage did increase the cost though, which is the only downer. I'm very happy with the product and will buy again.

Honey Shadow
Returning to henna after 2 years of chemical colours ruined my hair & scalp. This is a gentle product & colour for mid-brown hair. The extra time is well worth it. It's SO soothing - it has begun to heal my head, no more flaking! And this colour is not too bright on my poor, fried hair. I have learned my lesson.

Thankful
I found I was losing hair after many years of using chemical dyes. I had tried another henna product which had not covered my greys at all. I was very unhappy with how my hair looked and was nervous about trying salon treatments again. So grateful that I have found desert shadow. Beautiful non brassy colour and it covered my greys very well. Thank you Desert Shadow - I really thankful to you - I can be confident about my hair again.
