Ayluna Plant-based Hair Dyes

Worldwide, three out of four people have black hair. However, this is not a consistent hue. In the Middle East, the Mediterranean area and in Europe, there is for example a black that in the sunlight often turns out to be a very dark brown. In East Asia and Central Africa, on the other hand, people with deep black hair are nearly the only ones to be found. The most common natural hair color in Europe is brown. In northern Europe, however, this hue is usually slightly brighter than south of the Alps. The blond hair of many children in Northern and Central Europe is becoming darker in the course of time. Only 2% of the world's population also has blond hair during adulthood. The ”golden hair“ has always been particularly popular. Already in the sagas and myths of ancient Greece, blond was considered a divine hair color.

The Greek statues, which can be admired in museums today, mostly consist of white marble. In ancient times, however, the statues were painted brightly. Researchers have found color residues that prove that the Greeks represented their gods with blond hair. Also in the legends of classical antiquity, golden curls are reserved for particularly important characters. Helena of Troy is described in Greek mythology as the most beautiful woman in the world. Beside her height, it was mainly the long blond hair that made her that irresistible. In Athens, Sparta, Ephesus and later also in Rome, all women wanted to have hair like Helena. To help nature a little along, they dyed their hair with a mixture of beech ash, soap and quince juice. Moreover, lead combs that have been steeped in vinegar were often used. Since the result only rarely met the expectations, blond real hair wigs from Germania were imported instead. The fascination for golden hair was already as great as today. Since blond hair is less dominant than dark hair, they are often not inherited. That’s why some researchers fear that they might eventually become extinct. Even less common than blond hair is only natural red hair. It is estimated that only 1-2% of the world's population is red-haired. This still corresponds to 70-140 million people worldwide. However, because fewer and fewer red-haired children are born, this figure is continuously reduced. For the fiery head of hair is inherited only if both parents have red hair. Outside of Scotland and Ireland, however, this constellation is extremely rare.

Those who wanted to lighten their hair almost 100 years ago did this with highly reactive hydrogen peroxide. During the golden era of Hollywood, this bleach turned many actresses into the famous ”bottle blonds“. The chemical constituents of many colorants are now perceived much more critical than at the time of Marylin Monroe. When it comes to the well-being of one's own hair, more and more people prefer to use plant colors. Henna powder is becoming increasingly popular. In the Orient, it has been used for dying hair for thousands of years. Even in the Western world, this traditional ingredient is used more and more frequently in high-quality plant-based hair colors. How well the combination of tradition and modernity works shows the range of Ayluna.
