What hair dye will do the least damage to my hair?

I have been dyeing my hair since i was quite young, i have no intention of stopping but i'm slightly worried as to what this will do to my hair in the long run. I have dark brown hair and only dye it a slightly lighter, golden brown, i have never bleached it. I used to use permanent dye but changed to temporary as i figured this wouldn't be as harsh on my hair, unfortunately they don't seem to have a very wide range of colours. Is temporary that much better than permanent? which are the least damaging dyes? and also, what ingredients do the most damage so i'll know what to look out for.



Thank you x

No hair dye is healthy - lots of studies have linked dye to bladder cancer and also various other nasty things!



That said, if you really love colouring your hair, you have a few options that are healthier than others:



1) Try henna; Lush apparently do some that are 'natural'.



2) Have highlights instead in the shade you like; that way the dye doesn't need to touch your scalp, and shouldn't go through your skin into your bloodstream.



3) Get hair dye from a health shop; it will still have chemicals in it, but perhaps a bit less; I believe it might have less or no Recorcinol in it, for example.



4) Dye your hair less often.

Ammonia and peroxide are the most damaging ingredients.



I think you should try "Natual Match"--it's permanent but ammonia-free.



You're right that semi-permanents are less damaging.



Good for you for not bleaching your hair, bleach is baaad.

one with no ammonia is apparently a lot better for your hair.



it doesnt work as well (ie. not as permanent) but it does the job... and seeing as you constantly dye it, not being permanenet shouldn't make a difference?

Darker colours are better for your hair, as to get it lighter, bleach is used.



If you use permenant, you only use bi-monthly or so.



If you use temporary, you need to dye more often. - Not good
