Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

MaiRevive Organic HairColor consists of organic plant-based ingredients that are drawn from the ancient practice of coloring hair, dating back to Cleopatra. We brought this ancient art into modern day. What we have is a truly organic hair color that has ZERO chemicals that nourishes the hair and promotes a healthy scalp. It’s so good that we call it a Haircoloring Treatment.

The natural plant pigment (which is the coloring agent) attaches itself on the outside of the hair cuticles. As it coats the hair strand and settles, it binds to the keratin of the hair. It works with your hair’s natural highlights and undertones, creating a more natural, beautiful look and brilliant shine.

Besides coloring your hair in the healthiest and safest way possible, MaiRevive Organic HairColor offers many other benefits. It helps to detox the scalp while promoting healthy hair growth. It also repairs, thickens and strengthens the hair while it colors.

Yes, it is a permanent hair coloring treatment. While the color may fade a little after repeated washing and exposure to the elements, it is more lasting and holds color much longer than traditional hair dyes.

No, MaiRevive Organic HairColor cannot lighten hair. It is a deposit only hair color. If you have grays, and depending on the percentage of grays, it can be used as natural highlights with the right color selection.

We always recommend you consult with your doctor because your health is unique. Our hair color has ZERO chemicals. We use only genuine plant-based ingredients in their purest form.

Anyone who has Favism (G6PD deficiency) should not use MaiRevive Organic HairColor.

Yes, since it is free from metallic salts, PPD and chemical additives, it is safe to use along with other hair dyes. If you want to go back to chemical hair color at some point, you may do so.

Yes, this is a wonderful alternative organic hair color for people who have minor to severe allergic reactions to traditional chemical hair dye. The ingredients have an incredibly long history of use and your chance of being allergic to it is very low (unless you have a genetic condition called G6PD Deficiency, in which case you should not use our MaiRevive Organic HairColor.) We offer a complimentary patch test if you are highly sensitive to the chemical dye you used.

MaiRevive Organic HairColor is handcrafted with pure plant-based ingredients and has ZERO chemicals. Since it has no chemicals, it requires time for the color to develop. If processed naturally, it requires about 3 hours, depending on your hair texture and the amount of grays you have.

We offer two options for processing of MaiRevive Organic HairColor. One is for application only. With this process, it is applied to your hair, and wrapped up. You let it process for 3 hours, and then you rinse it out yourself. The other option is for an In-Salon treatment. With this process, it is applied to your hair, and then heat is applied for about an hour, which speeds up the processing time. We then rinse out your hair in the salon.

Application only is minimal in cost, and allows nature to color the hair naturally, creating a deeper color stain. The hair and scalp receive more benefits from the nutrients in the hair color mask. The In-Salon treatment has a shorter processing time of one hour, and hair is rinsed out in the salon. This is best for people with limited time to allow for processing, and/or who do not wish to rinse out at home.

PPD is short for Paraphenylenediamine. It is a chemical substance widely used in permanent hair dye. PPD is primarily used as a component of industrial engineered composites and polymers. It is an industrial-grade additive that should not be on your skin.Studies have shown PPD can be very harmful to your health. The National Institutes of Health have also found an increased risk of breast cancer among women using chemical hair dyes. Links to published research information on PPD toxicity is located on our Resources page.

Due to the health risks and possible damage to hair and skin, we never recommend using chemical dyes. However, you may go back to them at any time. There are no adverse effects resulting from the use of MaiRevive Organic HairColor should you follow up its use with a chemical dye.
