Key Benefits of Dark Brown Botanical Aqua Hair Colour

1. Gentle Hair Colour for Sensitive and Allergy-Prone Scalp

Finding the right hair dye can be difficult when your scalp is sensitive to conventional colouring products. Indus Valley Dark Brown Aqua Hair Colour is formulated without PPD, ammonia and hydrogen peroxide, making it an option worth considering for people looking for a botanical alternative. Its herbal colouring powders offer a different approach to colouring hair without relying on conventional oxidative hair dye developers. However, botanical ingredients can also cause allergic reactions, so a patch test is essential before every application.

2. Natural-Looking Dark Brown Colour for Grey Hair

Grey hair can sometimes appear more noticeable around the temples, roots and hairline. This botanical hair colour helps cover visible grey hairs with a dark brown shade that blends naturally with darker hair. Whether you want to colour premature grey hair or refresh your existing brown shade, the formula offers an alternative to conventional hair dyes. The final colour may vary depending on your natural hair shade, the amount of grey hair and application time.

3. PPD-Free Hair Colour Without Ammonia or Hydrogen Peroxide

Indus Valley Aqua Hair Colour is formulated without several ingredients commonly associated with conventional permanent hair colouring.
