Introduction

At the age of 27, I have unfortunately come across a few strands of grey hair. Instead of buying a whole box of hair dye for just 5 hairs, I have started using Bigen Permanent Powder. Bigen Permanent Powder is a hair dye that comes in powder form and I can use it bit by bit and this also saves me money. The other reason I started using Bigen Permanent Powder is because unlike a lot of other hair dyes it does no contain ammonia or hydrogen peroxide. I have thin hair so I wanted to make sure that my hair would not be further damaged by colouring it and was further swayed into using Bigen Permanent Powder because of the absence of ammonia and hydrogen peroxide. Ammonia is corrosive and can cause breakage to strands of hair. It can also cause a burning sensation if you leave it for too long on your scalp! There you go, two reasons to steer clear of dyes containing ammonia and hydrogen peroxide! The Bigen website states that the Bigen Permanent powder dye works by naturally opening the hair’s cuticle to deposit rich natural colour.

How easy is it to apply?

Bigen Permanent hair powder is very easy to apply. The Bigen Permanent hair powder is contained in a little bottle. This is the only thing that box contains (the little brown bottle which looks cute) and it does not come with gloves , palette, brush etc. To use the hair powder you have to find your own little brush and palette. I brought a new toothbrush, to use for specifically applying Bigen Permanent Powder to my hair. Add some of the powder to the palette and mix it with a little water. The mixture looks waterish grey and you then have to apply the mixture to dry hair. Leave it on your hair for about thirty minutes and then rinse it out with shampoo and conditioner. I was very pleased with the result I got the first time I used Bigen Permanent Powder. Bigen Permanent Powder is suitable for men and women.

How did the colour meet your expectations?

Bigen is available in eleven different colours. The colours I often use are Light Chestnut and Medium Chestnut. One bottle tend to last me about 6 weeks. The colours are very vibrant and my hair was effectively coloured and the five or six grey hairs have been instantly covered! The lasts forever and has not faded till now. I have been using this for a year now and use it now to colour the re-grown hairs!

The different colours that Bigen Permanent Powder is available in the following colours:
  • Dark Auburn - Shade Number 37
  • Chocolate- Shade Number 45
  • Light Chestnut- Shade Number 46
  • Medium Chestnut- Shade Number 47
  • Dark Chestnut- Shade Number 48
  • Rich Medium Brown- Shade Number 56
  • Dark Brown- Shade Number 57
  • Black Brown- Shade Number 58
  • Oriental Black- Shade Number 59
  • Blue Black- Shade Number 88
  • Deep Burgundy- Shade Number 96

Bigen Permanent Hair Powder is manufactured in Japan. Bigen Permanent Powder is available in Tesco, Asda, Sainsbury and Wilkinson for £2.99. Bigen Permanent Powder is not listed on the websites of Tesco, Asda, Sainsbury or Wilkinson but I have definitely purchased Bigen from the mentioned stores. The sole distributor of Bigen Permanent Powder is Acering. Bigen also sells semi-permanent hair powder.

Conclusion

I would definitely recommend that you use Bigen Permanent Hair Powder because it doesn‘t damage the hair. Even if you don’t plan to use this regularly, its good just to have a bottle around in the cabinet so that you can use it for emergencies! My family members have been using this for years and have suffered no hair loss or hair damage!
