Review: So happy I tried PHYTO! - After a polar haircare disaster I was scared to try anything else. I went with the light golden brown tho it appeared to he lighter than my natural hair color. It still came put pretty dark.. very dark brown. (Im tempted to try the dark blonde and see how it comes out.)Its a gorgeous color though. I washed it once so far and it didn't seem to fade at all. It covered all my grays and after my first shampoo i didnt notice any fading, though im washing in cold water with redken color protect. I was very impressed with the coverage especially considering it didnt stain my skin at all. ** UPDATE** I'm so sad! this is by far the most amazing coloring product I've ever used. I came back to order more and it's sold out!! Now Im really stuck!
Review: Highly recommend and will keep using! - I am so happy a friend told me about this product. It smells so good, unlike most hair coloring products that reek of chemicals. I can tell it's made from gentler, natural products because it didn't burn my eyes when I was washing it out. Even with eyes closed, you always end up getting some into your eyes (especially if you're rinsing in the shower) and with other products my eyes would burn really badly. It also did a good job with gray coverage but you do need to keep it on for the full 45 minutes indicated in the directions if you have gray hair. The color does come out slightly darker than what I expected - so the level 4 in this product is probably closer to what you'd expect from a 3. It didn't bother me, but I would suggest you start out a level lighter than you normally would the first time just to be safe.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it have PPD in it?**
A: So just so people understand -this contains N.N-Bis 2 .Hydroxyethyl-P-Phenylenediamine Sulfate which comes up as a "4" concern rating in EWG. It is NOT the same thing as PPD, which is P Phenylenediamine and comes up as a "10" worst concern rating in EWG (very toxic). So they are not being deceptive. This does not contain PPD. That said it does contain a slew of other concerning toxic ingredients like: Propylene Glycol. Ethanolamine (just as bad as ammonia), Toluene-2,5-Diamine Sulfate (really bad!), and M Aminophenol (linked to thyroid cancer.) Hope that helps.

**Q: One reviewer posted pictures showing her tubes arrived squeezed. Did the company replace them? I don't want to order from a company with bad service.**
A: Oh I trust they will replace a damaged product

**Q: Are there any ash shades?**
A: NO picture but I need a light ash blonde

**Q: I am not sure if after coloring my hair do I just rinse the product with water only then apply tube#3, or do I shampoo using any shampoo, then tube#3?**
A: After applying and letting the color on your hair for the recommended time (I like to have it on for an hour) feel free to rinse with water until the product comes off. There after, I use gentle shampoo to wash my scalp and and stains around the hair line. I do this twice. You can use tube 3 for conditioner or your favorite conditioner that is dedicated for treated/color hair. 
Hope this helps

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great but may take time to find right color
*by M***N on October 4, 2025*

Ok, first about the color. I think my conclusion is that the colors are just gonna come out a bit differently on different people's hair and you may have to try different ones til you find the one that works for you. I went with 5.7 light chestnut brown, and it turned out a DARK, chocolate brown. I purposefully didn't go with the chestnut brown because of the reviews, thinking the *light* chestnut brown would be more like a medium brown, but it was definitely dark brown for me (darker than pics of the same color for some others). Not bad, thankfully I look okay with a darker hue, but I'm gonna progressively try lighter shades until I get to the one I actually want. Regarding coverage, I'd say the grey coverage is very good. There are always a sneaky few that I somehow miss, but otherwise it covered my roots well. The formula is definitely not too drying. I used a different brand before (with ammonia) and it took a couple weeks for my hair to get back to a normal moisture level, after very dedicated conditioning and moisturizers. Phyto didn't dry my hair out at all, so that was really great, especially as a curly haired gal. I am disappointed by one thing, though. The other brand I tried before, with ammonia), resulted in my hair falling out in larger amounts than my non-colored hair. I read that that's a pretty common result of the chemicals, so that's why I wanted to try Phyto to see if it would be different. So far it hasn't improved, though - my hair is still falling out at the same larger amount. I'm hopeful this may still improve in time, but it may be that Phyto is no different in that way. Still a great product, though, and I like that it seems to be gentler chemicals, so I will continue to use and work on finding the best color for me.
