Notes
1. This colors contains no ammonia, formaldehyde, propylene glycol, or resorcinol and is the most natural and organic permanent hair color available worldwide.
2. Our activators contain only pharmaceutical grade hydrogen peroxide, which is the
same peroxide used in eye drops.
3. Some of OCS include mineral pigments. If mineral pigments are included in the
color, only the smallest amounts (an average of 00.006) are used. Organic Color Systems employs only the purest and most natural virgin minerals available including HC Yellow 2, HC Red 3, 4-Chlororesorcinol, 2-Amino-4-Hydroxyethylamino-Anisole, 4-Amino-Hydroxytoluene, M-Aminophenol, 2-Methly Resorcinol, Phenylenediamine, P-Aminophenol.
4. Chlororesorcinol and Methyl Resorcinol is a different compound than Resorcinol (which is highly toxic).
Resorcinol is not used in any Organic Color Systems products.
5. Monoethanolamine and Ethanolamine are coconut derived organic chemical compounds, which are far less corrosive than ammonia or ammonia hydroxide and are used at levels below 00.004 in OCS.
Important Reminder: Consider a Patch Test
