Can You Colour Damaged Hair Naturally? Yes — Here’s How

If your hair has been through a lot — Heat styling, chemical dyes, bleaching or stress — You’re not alone. Many people with damaged, dry or brittle hair feel hesitant to colour it again, Afraid of making things worse. But here’s the good news:

You can colour damaged hair naturally — And even improve its condition in the process.

With Radico’s 100% Organic Hair Colours, You don’t have to choose between beauty and health. Let’s break down how it works and how to colour your hair safely, Even if it’s been damaged.

Why Conventional Hair Dyes Can Worsen Damage

Traditional hair dyes often contain:

• Ammonia (opens the hair cuticle, weakening it) 
• PPD (para-phenylenediamine) (A strong allergen and irritant) 
• Peroxide (strips the natural pigment, damaging the shaft) 
• Synthetic fragrances (can irritate the scalp)
  

These chemicals Dehydrate your hair, Strip protein and stress the scalp — All of which worsen existing damage and lead to breakage, Thinning or hair fall.

Why Radico Organic Hair Colour Is Different

Radico uses only certified organic plant ingredients like:

• Henna (conditions and strengthens) 
• Indigo (adds depth and dark tones) 
• Amla (rich in Vitamin C, promotes hair growth) 
• Bhringraj, Brahmi & Neem (nourish scalp and soothe irritation)

These herbs not only colour the hair but also repair, moisturize and balance the scalp. Think of it as Colouring With Care — not with chemicals.

How to Colour Damaged Hair Naturally (Step-by-Step)

1. Prep Gently

• Wash hair with a sulfate-free, herbal shampoo to remove buildup. 
• Avoid conditioner — Your hair needs to be absorbent. 
• Detangle carefully using a wide-tooth comb.
  

2. Mix the Paste

• Use warm (not hot) water to mix the Radico Colour powder into a smooth paste. 
• Let it sit for 10–30 mins to activate the herbs.
  

3. Apply Generously

• Apply on clean, damp hair from roots to ends. 
• Wrap with a shower cap to retain moisture and warmth.
  

4. Let It Sit

• Leave the paste on for 60 to 90 minutes. 
• Damaged hair may soak up more pigment — Don’t worry, that’s a good thing.
  

5. Rinse, Don’t Shampoo

• Rinse thoroughly with just water. 
• Wait 24–48 hours before shampooing to allow the colour to deepen.
  

Extra Tips for Damaged Hair

• Oil your hair (lightly) with coconut or amla oil between colouring sessions to boost shine and softness. 
• Repeat monthly — Each application builds stronger, glossier hair. 
• Use Radico’s Hair treatment powders like Amla, Ritha, or Bhringraj as masks to repair over time.
