Organic Color Systems Review

Organic Color Systems Review

When we were asked to feature an article about organic hair colour salon treatments from Herb UK, offered at a prestigious London salon, we were keen to find out what all the fuss was about. More importantly, we could not wait to sample these much more natural colour treatments for ourselves. Luckily the treatment is not only offered by London hairdresser of the year 2007, Karine Jackson, at her Covent Garden salon, but also available at Paul Barlow hairdressing in Cheadle Hulme.

You and your salon will benefit from being cruelty-free, non-toxic, and socially responsible

You and your salon will benefit from being cruelty-free, non-toxic, and socially responsible

There is an unmistakable movement overtaking our culture that is so invigorating and innately humane that most respectable people cannot easily ignore the intuitive karma it beholds. Although the concept of being decent to one another is simplistic and straightforward, the movement has been labeled as many names which have often been misunderstood. You may have heard of veganism, organic living, ethical consumerism, fair-trade, or even cruelty-free.

Although they are all unique constructs in their own ways, these movements share some common principles like that of being good, fair, and thoughtful human beings and extending a sense of common respect to all living things on this planet.

Top 8 reasons why Organic Color Systems is simply better

Top 8 reasons why Organic Color Systems is simply better

1.  It’s 100% ammonia free.
The oil base of the color is alkaline so it raises the pH of the hair, but at the same time it acts as a conditioning agent softening the hair’s cuticle and allowing it to be opened with gentle heat.  This eliminates the need for ammonia.  Ammonia is a very effective way of opening the cuticle, however it opens the cuticle so much that while the color is going in essential moisture and proteins are going out.

2.  Certified Organic Ingredients
Organic Color Systems is the only permanent color line available today with certified organically grown ingredients.  These include aloe vera, organge, grapefruit, natural soya, comfrey, wheat, coconut, vitamin C, vitamin E, and corn.  It is as natural as possible, while still allowing you to obtain exceptionally professional results.
