No. In fact, there are no chemicals in

chemical hair dyes might be linked to ovarian and breast
cancer. This link is controversial. And, you know we don't
like to perpetuate unproven rumors. But, it appears that at
least some reputable professionals are concerned about this link. It
looks like the greatest risk is to hair care professionals(who handle
the products on a regular basis) and, if there is a link, it's weak at
best. Darker colors and black are considered more risky
because the chemicals in them are used at higher
concentrations. Use of Natural-Colors avoids any potential
risk from the use of the chemicals in permanent hair coloring products.

No More Grey!
By Angela from Saint Amant, Louisiana on December 3, 2011
I have black hair that has turned a "dirty" black from perms. I have a lot of grey hair along my hairline. The rest of the grey is scattered throughout the back of my head looking like specks of lint! After reading the reviews and realizing that the henna colors like the black and browns were really dark, I tried Baka Natural-Colors Henna dark brown for grey hair instead of the black. I used the tips for covering grey, adding coffee and apple cider vinegar. I used the olive oil also which helps give the mixture a smooth texture for easy application. I was really pleased with the results. It covered all of my grey with dark brown and blended the "lint" specks of grey in the back of my head so they no longer looked like specks of lint. My "dirty" black hair became a vibrant, shiny shade of dark black-brown that looks so natural! I was worried about the grey turning green with coloring, but that did not happen. When the henna color fades it fades to a lighter brown along the front hairline, and it still looks natural. I reapply color every 5-6 weeks, only along the hairline. I don't have to do the entire head. As the back specks fade I spot color them to keep them blended. I can use this product without worrying about harsh chemicals causing hair thinning and medical issues. It actually tames my grey hair and keeps it from being wild and wooly! I get many compliments about my hair. Thanks Treasured Locks!Pros:
Covers grey very well
Does not turn grey a green color
Makes hair shiny and manageable
Color looks natural
Conditions hair, does not make hair dry and brittle like chemical coloring
I can do it myself with ease at homeCons:
NoneI would recommend this item to a friend.
