It is a coloration extracted directly from a selection of high-quality plants whose leaves are dried, ground and crushed until obtaining a completely natural powder. Each of the colors in the range provides a natural reflection depending on the type of leaf.
- Provides the reflection of the natural base of the leaves.Natural Earth Colors is a natural alternative free of preservatives and harmful chemicals that takes care of your hair and scalp.
ICON Natural Earth colors dye the hair without altering or changing its nature , so you can only darken and not lighten. Over time, the color will fade, leaving a soft tone. For example, if it is Dark Brown hair and you apply a Light Blonde on top, you will not see any difference. However, if we talk about Dark Brown hair with gray hair, you will see the shade you have chosen.
That is why it is very important to choose the color that resembles your natural base.
Our Natural Herbal Color comes from the earth naturally, using the best and highest quality plants. The powder is obtained by drying, grinding and filtering the leaves. If the leaves are not ground, they do not dye the hair. In order for them to be dyed or pigmented, they need to be mixed with a liquid to release the dye from the leaves. Each color provides a reflection of the natural base that the leaves have.
How to apply Earth Colors:
1. First we will wash our hair with the PURIFY Shampoo before applying Natural Color Earth, we will wrap the hair with a towel to eliminate excess water while we prepare the mixture.
2. We heat water to 80ºC to use it in the mixture. This temperature is ideal for the mixture with Natural Color Earth to be as homogeneous as possible.
3. The mixture is composed of one part Earth and 5 parts water (1 Earth + 5 Water).
4. To mix well, we will add the water little by little, stirring well to avoid lumps. The mixture should be homogeneous with a light paste texture.
5. We will apply the mixture obtained in sections to our roots with the brush, then distributing it to the rest of the hair.
6. At the end of the application of Natural Earth Color we will cover our hair with transparent film or a plastic bag.
7. We will apply a heat source, using a thermal cap for 20 minutes. For 100% gray coverage we will let it act for 30 minutes.
8. Once the exposure time is over, we remove the cap and the film from our hair and let it cool.
9. We remove the product with plenty of water and wash with our favorite Icon shampoo. A single pass.
10. We condition and/or apply our usual hydration treatment.
