Benefits of using vegan hair dye

With so many products on the market that are harmful to our health and the environment, many of us look for alternatives that do not pollute or harm us in the long run. Now we must look at the ingredients of what we buy and even investigate its origin or production methods. This is how vegan dyes have emerged. But what are they and what are the benefits of using vegan hair dye?

One would think that the word “vegan” could only be associated with food. So how can a vegan hair dye be? To begin with, it must be made clear that veganism is a way of life that seeks to exclude, as far as possible and practicable, all forms of exploitation and cruelty towards animals, whether for food, clothing or any other purpose.

What is a vegan dye?

Vegan dyes are those that have not been tested on animals and do not contain ingredients that come from or are derived from living creatures, including milk and honey. The main reason is to avoid the exploitation of animals, but formulas free of potentially irritating ingredients are also used. In other words, you won’t feel burning or itching when the dye is in contact with your scalp.

Therefore, vegan hair dyes are ideal for people with allergy problems or skin conditions, pregnant women or people who have had cancer treatment; but not only for them, but for everyone, since they contain less chemicals that can be harmful to health. So, in addition to avoiding animal cruelty, the vegan dye is also a healthier and less aggressive option with our skin.

Ammonia free dye

One of the strongest chemicals found in hair dyes is ammonia. To give you an idea of its power, one of the most common uses for ammonia is in kitchen and bathroom cleaning products, as it is useful for removing grime and stuck-on grease. We also find it as a fundamental element in the manufacture of plastics, explosives, fabrics, pesticides and fertilizers.

Ammonia is a source of nitrogen needed by plants, animals, and humans. It is found naturally in the environment in water, soil, and air. Although it is a biodegradable chemical, produced both by humans and by nature, it can also be an irritant and corrosive. For example, when inhaled in a concentrated form, it can cause coughing or make your eyes water.

At L’Oréal Professionnel they have developed INOA, an ammonia-free dye made from nourishing oils that provides 100% coverage on roots or white hair. In addition to providing a permanent color that can last up to 6 weeks, INOA dye deeply hydrates and nourishes the hair, leaving it healthy and shiny.

Its improved formula without ammonia will make your experience in the salon more pleasant, since it does not produce odor, itching or irritation. Therefore, this line of ammonia-free dyes is suitable for application even on sensitive scalps.

If you are liking all these, you’ll be delighted to know that INOA hair color from L’Oréal Professionnel is a vegan hair color. Its manufacture is not associated with any type of animal exploitation, since no animal tests are carried out nor does it contain ingredients of animal origin.

The most important thing is that your hair will be radiant after applying this ammonia-free dye.
