Herbatint is an Italian brand of permanent hair dyes with extracts from eight herbs, which are a more natural alternative to long-lasting hair coloring with 100% gray coverage.

In 1970, Herbatint colors were the first permanent hair color without ammonia, based on plant extracts. During development, the creators focused on the most gentle but effective way to color hair. Because other products from competing brands contained many chemicals that are hazardous to health, they decided to remove ammonia from their colors, which can be harmful to hair, skin and respiratory tract, as well as resorcinol, which can cause contact dermatitis, parabens, which are allergenic preservatives, and alcohol. They then reduced the hydrogen peroxide content to a minimum (after mixing the color, it is 3%, while European legislation for mixed and ready-to-use hair colors allows 6%).

Herbatint hair dyes are sold in 40 countries around the world. These are high-quality, consumer-safe products that are also suitable for sensitive skin, as evidenced by some of the awards this line has won. They also performed well in a test by the French independent consumer testing organization "60 millions consommateurs", which tested 18 international hair dye brands and of all those tested, Herbatint hair dye was the only product recommended for its health safety. However, other products were rated as containing more potentially harmful substances.

The fact that Herbatint dyes contain a much smaller amount of sensitizing substances than conventional hair dyes is also reflected in the conclusion of testing the product on specially selected individuals with a predisposition for sensitive skin, which reacts with redness or edema within 48 hours after exposure. Out of 160 tests, the entire Herbatint color range showed good to very good tolerance in subjects with such sensitive skin. The 36 natural-looking shades of permanent hair color contain 8 different organic herbal extracts, the combination of which strengthens and protects the hair while soothing the scalp.

The manufacturer guarantees that Herbatint colors are not tested on animals, are also suitable for vegans, and their paper packaging, which is of controlled origin, is fully recyclable.
