Organic Color Systems – the most natural and organic professional color available today.

organic ingredientsIts unique oil-delivery system has replaced the need for a highly toxic substance such as ammonia to swell and blast open the cuticle. Instead, soya oil softens the cuticle allowing gentle heat to open it, deliver the color into the hair shaft, and create a permanent result.

You may ask why other color lines aren’t employing this oil-delivery system that’s been proven to work for 15 years, and in 32 countries around the world.   Simply put, it’s more expensive to manufacture this type of color line. The ingredients required are more costly, so profit margins are affected, and large corporations are much more driven by their bottom line. Fortunately, this corporate attitude provided an opportunity for a couple of hairdressers and a chemist from the UK to come up with an alternative, and Organic Color Systems™ was created. Although it has gained much popularity in Europe over the last 15 years, and has been available in this country for 7, the growth has really only begun to explode in recent times with the consumer’s focus on eco-conscious alternatives that are less damaging to their health, but still give them a superior salon-quality result. Stylists and salons that fail to ride the wave of the green and organic movement will surely be left behind as more and more clients demand something better.

organic-ingredientsIt is important to understand that when one is using the term “organic” that it has different definitions depending on the context. An “organic tomato” is grown with no chemicals and can be certified as “organically grown”. Organic Color Systems™ is obviously not a food and there are no such designations for organic hair color. That being said, Organic Color Systems is made up of at least 5 Certified Organic Ingredients, and even more in the Organic Care Systems and Organic Control Systems lines.

At least 89% of the Organic Color System line  is naturally derived and 10% is made up of organically grown ingredients. This is a huge percentage in contrast to other color lines. Also, all of our lines of products are completely cruelty-free as they are never tested on animals and contain absolutely no animal by-products and is a qualified vegan product. Not only does it have ZERO ammonia, it also contains ZERO resorcinol, which is a pigment that has been banned in the European Union due to its adverse health effects. Ammonia is an extremely toxic ingredient and resorcinol is a toxic substance with carcinogenic properties much like parabens. Organic Color Systems products are free of ammonia, resorcinol, parabens, and the other toxic and carcinogenic ingredients commonly found in other products.

organic-hair-colorThe term “green” has been constantly redefined as we learn more and more about sustainability and the common sense principles of “recycle – reduce – reuse”. Technology has also been emerging to help us make this possible in our daily lives. Any salon or stylist using Organic Color Systems™ has the perfect opportunity to define what “green” means in the salon environment. As importantly, using it demonstrates the changes you’ve employed and the alternatives you are providing your clients. Perhaps, as this movement towards conservation, awareness, and sustainability continues; salons such as yours will join us as we revolutionize the beauty industry one head of hair at a time.

Percentage of Naturally Derived Ingredients By Product Line

  • Color: 98.68%
  • conditioners: 99.42%
  • Naturlite Oil: 98.11%
  • Treatments: 98.71%
  • Activators: 99.79%
  • shampoos: 99.61%
  • Naturlite Lightening Powder: 88.29%

  3. I am looking for a salon that uses your organic color system. My husband saw an add in the magazine Nature’s Pathways that he brought home from Anytime Fitness. He shared it with me since he knew I am looking for a safer alternative to hair color.

    I live in Marinette, WI 54143

    The closest salon I have been able to find that offers your hair color alternative is inside The Hair Designers in Appleton, WI — Kristy Hansen.
    Is there anyone closer?

    I have my regular hair appointment tomorrow at a salon in Menominee,MI and am going to speak to my hair stylist about your products. Perhaps I can interest her in becoming certified to offer your products.

    Thank you for any help you can give me in my search for safer non-toxic hair color.

    is there a professional salon that does great hair that uses your products in NY or NJ

     

  6. Hi, I own a salon in Pennington NJ called Diana’s Epiphany Hair Studio. We have been using Organic Color Systems for a little over a year and have been extremely happy. Many of our clients are making the switch and they have been very happy with the results.Not only is the Grey Coverage great, but the hair is left feeling healthy, is shiny and there is no itchy or tingling scalps! I cannot say enough about this product. I also just did one of their perms and again it was great. It smelled like flowers instead of sulfur.I have been in the business for 30+ years and am thrilled that this company is helping the environment and the overall health of our clients.Our number at the salon is 609-737-HAIR(4247)

  13. I was just trying to find out prices on your products, for my wife, primarily the 6TO and to see if there are any locations close by that sell it. Why do you make it so difficult, I don’t want to register, I don’t want to give out my phone number, can you imagine how many potential customers you are losing by being so invasive. Whatever, we live in Virginia Beach, if there is a location close by my wife will probably try your product, but if its too much trouble to get a price and or a location then don’t bother.

  35. Ethanolamine- is this a harmful ingredient?

    (from your ingredient list)?

     
    • Maria
    • August 27, 2012 at 11:18 pm

  36. Hi Maria:

    There has been a whirlwind of controversy surrounding this ingredient, but we would love clear the air! This is a pH adjuster naturally derived from coconut, and is considered harmful in certain amounts (which if you think about it, that’s how it works with many things – too much of one thing is never good), but our color line does not have anywhere the near the amount where you would have to worry. Also, people get concerned that Ethanolamine can stick to the scalp and hair, then stay there. Well, we’ve got that covered, too! We use oleic acid as a part of the formula that removes all of the dyes ingredients from the hair.

    We hope this answers your question! :)

    • August 28, 2012 at 11:03 am

  37. It’s too bad your product line does not include a gluten free (ex. wheat and soy free) option. For those people, like me, who need to go the organic and/or natural ingredient route that are gluten intolerant and/or allergic, finding an organic salon and still finding it impossible to use their products is frustrating. Are you working on creating this type of line?

     
    • Carolyn
    • January 3, 2013 at 11:46 am

  38. We understand, Carolyn. As we continue to see an increasing trend of gluten sensitive individuals, we hope in the future to accommodate those with an allergy to this ingredient. We appreciate the feedback, as we are always looking for new ways to improve our product!
