Q&A: What is the main color in ‘natural’ hair dyes?

Question by fdgdfgsd: What is the main color in ‘natural’ hair dyes?

By this I mean:
Some dyes are called Ash dyes, some are called Golden dyes and some are called Natural dyes. Not sure if there are any more, but anyway, I know that Golden dyes have gold/yellow/red tones in them, and ash dyes are very grey/blue?? I guess. But I don’t know what Natural dyes main/base color is. Please help x

Answer by Sur La Mer
There are about 11 different colors for NATURAL hair dyes. What color is your natural hair? I have 4 on mine.

For years, there has been speculation among consumers and health groups that consistent use of hair color can result in an increased risk of certain types of cancer. According to Begoun, this is a real concern, but exhaustive research by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the National Cancer Institute and the National Institutes of Health has yielded no conclusive answers. Begoun says the research has been both confusing and conflicting: “In essence … there is no definitive proof one way or the other.” The FDA recommends that consumers weigh the risk for themselves.

Henna, for example, is a natural hair color that is incredibly drying to the hair shaft, Begoun says. And cosmetics scientists at TheBeautyBrains.com say that henna will only temporarily tint your hair. Although most so-called natural hair-color products use fewer chemicals than most drugstore hair colors, experts say that any change to natural hair color causes hair damage. Experts suggest using the gentlest formula that will yield your desired color and using it as infrequently as possible.
Herbatint & Naturetint are two permanent hair colors that use a smaller amount of hair dye chemicals in conjunction with natural ingredients. Both have fairly decent ratings at MakeupAlley.com (though each gets only a handful of reviews).

Here’s a new article I found re: henna, which is supposed to be better for you than reg. box dye. It’s a good read!
Google: Henna for Hair Warnings.
Google: Warning– Clairol Natural Instincts dye recall

If you’re using Henna which says it’s going to turn your hair from black to blonde, then it seems like your using compound Henna, which is not 100% natural. Without getting too scientific, compound henna is when you mix the Lawson in with a chemical like, metallic salts. The most commonly used ones are Copper, Lead acetate and Nickel. This can arguably damage your hair, leaving it dry, brittle and coarse.

Q&A: What color should i paint the paneling in my kitchen?

Question by Brandon: What color should i paint the paneling in my kitchen?

Hey, just bought a house and in the kitchen, the bottom half of the wall is wood paneling. The only reason I’m unsure is because I am staining the cabinets a darker ash wood color and I don’t think it would look right to have the cabinets darker than the paneling? The colors I have in mind for the upper walls is between a darker taupe or a bold but muted shade of orange. I want my kitchen to feel kind of masculine and lived in, so I chose black counters and brushed nickel modern fixtures. Any design ideas for this stupid paneling would be appreciated.

Answer by Sincere Betrayal
It depends on whether you want a classic or modern kitchen tiling. If you’d go for classic i would suggest using dark brown or grey.

Answer by Professional Peon
I wouldn’t cause then it will look fake and no one will want to take it. Why don’t you call the bank and see if you can get a better design. You may have to pay for it, but at least it won’t be as ugly right?
