Description Description

Soft Black — Men's Hair Colouring. Colour Me Organic Premium, certified organic herbal hair colour, 3.5 oz (100 g). The same herbs as our women's Soft Black, in slightly different proportions. No PPD, no ammonia, no peroxide.

What to expect

The darkest shade we make: a black with brown underneath, not the flat, opaque black of a chemical dye. In daylight, warm brown comes through, the way it does in natural black hair.

Plant colour adds pigment and never lifts it. Grey takes the colour first, and reads a little lighter and warmer than the rest of your hair at the start. It blends further with each application — most people see grey fully blended by the second or third round.

How to use it

Start with clean hair, free of conditioner, oil or styling product. Dry hair is best; towel-dried damp hair also works.
Mix the powder with warm water into a smooth, yogurt-like paste. Do not add vinegar or lemon juice.
Apply evenly, grey areas first. Cover with the shower cap and leave on for 60 to 90 minutes.
Rinse with water only. The first rinse looks green. That is the indigo before it has finished forming, and it is the normal starting point.
Air-dry. No blow-dryer or heat for the first 24 hours — drying fast stops the colour partway.
Skip shampoo for 72 hours, and judge the colour on day three.

How much to use

1.1 oz (one-third) — short hair
2.2 oz (one-half) — medium-length hair
3.5 oz — longer or fuller coverage

The herbs are milled together, so any part of the pouch is the same colour as the whole. The pouch reseals.

What's in the kit

Organic hair colour powder, 3.5 oz (100 g) — up to 3 applications for short hair
Resealable pouch
Instructions
Dye brush
Shower cap
Disposable gloves

FAQ

Does this cover gray hair? Does this cover gray hair?

Yes. This shade is designed to cover gray hair. Results can vary depending on hair porosity, starting color, and application. For best coverage, follow the instructions carefully and ensure full saturation from roots to ends.

How long does the color last? How long does the color last?

Typically about 30–45 days, depending on your hair type and how often you wash. Using strong/clarifying shampoos, washing very frequently, or using very hot water can shorten longevity. To help it last longer, use a gentle (preferably sulfate-free) shampoo and wash with lukewarm water.

Is it safe for sensitive scalp? Is it safe for sensitive scalp?

It’s made from certified organic herbs, but any hair color product can cause irritation for some people. We recommend performing a patch test before full application—especially if you have sensitive skin or a history of allergies. Stop use if irritation occurs.

Does it contain indigo? Does it contain indigo?

Yes. This shade contains indigo. Because indigo can cause sensitivity in some people, we strongly recommend a patch test before use—especially if you have a history of indigo allergy or sensitivity. If you experience any reaction, discontinue use and consult a professional.

Great quality

Very gentle ash blonde color and easy to use. So far I tried Beige and champagne blonde shades with excellent results. My hair is mostly grey and seems to absorb the color very well. I left the wheat blonde on for two hour ( longer than the other shades) and got a very good coverage on my hair. My hair feels fuller and has more body since I started using Radico. Overall. I am very satisfied with your products.

I love this product because it does not burn

I love this product because it does not burn like the other chemical stuff I have used in the past. It take like 45min-1hour and does a great job looking natural. I love it!

It’s a natural product I believe that but the

It’s a natural product I believe that but the colour is not exact what I was expecting .
I ordered dark brown and after I applied it came out light brown.
I think lite black would work better since I don’t like this orange in my hair

Thank you for sharing your experience, and we’re sorry that the Dark Brown turned out lighter and more orange than you expected.

One possible reason is how quickly the hair dried after coloring. With natural herbal color, the pigments continue developing after the paste is rinsed out, so drying conditions can affect the final shade. You can find more details here:
https://radicousa.com/pages/turned-my-hair-orange

Since this was your first purchase, please contact us and we will be happy to send you another Dark Brown free of charge so you can try again with adjusted aftercare.

We truly appreciate you giving our natural hair color a try, and we’d be happy to help you achieve a deeper, more natural brown result.

If you would like to try the product again, please feel free to contact our Customer Support team at customer-service@radicousa.com. We’ll be happy to assist you.

HORRIBLE

HORRIBLE. NOT EVEN CLOSE TO COPPER BROWN!!!! ITS GREEN.

We’re very sorry that your Copper Brown turned green when you were expecting a natural brown shade. We completely understand how alarming that must have been, especially if you were not expecting this color change.
The green color immediately after rinsing can be a normal stage for a shade containing indigo. Indigo naturally begins with a green tone and gradually develops toward blue as it oxidizes. As that color develops together with the warmer henna pigments in Copper Brown, the final shade gradually moves toward brown over the following 2–3 days.
During this period, we recommend air-drying rather than using a hair dryer and avoiding strong shampoo for approximately 48–72 hours. Maintaining some natural moisture in the hair can also help the indigo develop properly.
If your hair is still green after 2–3 days, or if you simply do not want to go through the process again, please contact us at customer-service@radicousa.com. Since this was your first experience with our hair color, we can either send you another shade at no charge or provide a full refund.
We also appreciate you bringing this to our attention. Although we explain the green stage in our instructions and website, your experience tells us that we need to make this information much more noticeable before customers begin coloring. We will continue improving our guidance so first-time users know exactly what to expect.
Again, we’re very sorry that your first experience was so concerning, and we would be happy to make this right for you.

I was a little disappointed, I purchased wheat

I was a little disappointed, I purchased wheat blonde and followed the instructions and did not get the results I was looking for , it did not cover my gray but it did make my hair softer , I have less than 30% gray hair mostly on my hair line and I having light brownish blonde hair with a little gray , what color would you recommend, that was my first time.

Thank you for trying our Wheat Blonde and for sharing your experience. We’re sorry that it did not provide the gray coverage you were hoping for on your first application.

Because our hair color is made entirely from organic herbs without chemical additives that force the color into the hair, results can vary depending on hair porosity, natural color, and the condition of the gray hair.

Since this was your first time using our hair color, we would be happy to help you find a shade that works better for your hair. Please email us at **customer-service@radicousa.com** with a few details about your hair and how you prepared, applied, rinsed, and dried the color. Our Customer Support Team can review the information and recommend a more suitable shade and application method.

We truly appreciate that you gave our natural hair color a try, and we would love the opportunity to help you achieve better gray coverage.

Love it! Great results, I need to order my 2nd

Love it! Great results, I need to order my 2nd one👍❤️

Does not dye grey hair whether I leave dye on for 1 hour or 3 1/2 hours

I have very short hair, much shorter on the sides than the top as I have a mohawk and I let the hair on the sides grow in a bit between haircuts. I have only used the dark brown color and I have dyed my hair 4 times. While the color is pleasing to me, the dye will do nothing to color my grey hair. The first time I used it I left the dye paste on my hair for 1 hour. The last time - today-I left it on my hair for 3 hours and twenty minutes and it still didn't even touch my grey hairs which are all near my hairline. Each of the four times I used the product, I blow dried around the edges of my hairline for 1-2 minutes as instructed every 15 - 20 minutes and still nothing. I loaded up the paste along the edges every time. During the second and third hair dye experiences, I even sat under a steamer cap hoping the hot steam would keep the paste moist. There was no difference in my grey hair. I love how principled the company is and love their comprehensive website with all the instructions and how to tell if hair is porous , and how incredible clean and healthy and humanely sourced their products are. I wish I could continue patronizing their company but if the product doesn't work for me and doesn't do what they say it will do, I'll have to move on. Very disappointing!

Thank you very much for taking the time to share such a detailed and thoughtful review. We especially appreciate your kind words about our ingredients, sourcing, and the information we provide on our website.

We’re truly sorry that Dark Brown did not cover the gray hair around your hairline, even after four careful applications. In some people, newly grown gray hair at the roots has a particularly tight, healthy cuticle structure, which can make it difficult for 100% herbal pigments to penetrate. While this does not happen to everyone, we do hear from a small number of customers who experience difficulty coloring this specific area.

Your experience is very important to us. We will continue researching better preparation and application methods specifically for resistant gray roots so that customers with this hair type can achieve better results with our completely additive-free herbal color.

We sincerely appreciate the time and effort you put into trying different application methods, and your feedback will help us improve both our instructions and our products. Thank you for giving Radico such a fair and thoughtful evaluation despite your disappointing results. 🌿

100% Satisfied!

I am absolutly sold on this company and their products. Professional and true to their word in delivery and what the product actually does and does not do. Thank you

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! 🌿💚 We’re truly grateful to hear that you are 100% satisfied not only with our products, but also with our service and delivery.

Great coverage and pleasant scent.

Tried other henna brands but none of them worked. When I discovered Radico I was not sure how the color will come out. First I tried Champagne Blonde which covered my grey hair well but the all over color was a little too light. Next I tried Beige blonde and it came out just the way I wanted to. The greys are light blonde and the rest of my hair darker beige and golden. The color smella very pleasant ( my cats are very attracted to it ). I am very happy to have discovered Radico colors since they are natural and none irritating.

Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful experience! 🌿 We’re delighted that you found the right shade for your hair and that Beige Blonde gave you the natural combination of lighter blonde grays with deeper beige and golden tones you were looking for.

We’re also very happy to hear that you enjoyed the natural herbal scent — and that your cats seem to enjoy it too! Since our colors contain only herbs with no added fragrance, the scent comes directly from the plants themselves. We know that the natural grassy aroma isn’t for everyone, so it’s especially nice to hear that you found it pleasant.

Thank you for discovering Radico and giving our organic herbal colors a chance. It means a lot to our entire team to know that you found a color that works beautifully for you. 💚

This hair color DOES NOT WORK!!!!

This hair color does not break me out but is terrible and doesn’t color my hair at ALL! I wouldn’t recommend this product to anyone or ever buy it again. I’ve tried it 3 times and haven’t had good results in turning my grey black!!!

Thank you for trying our Men's Soft Black and for sharing your honest feedback. We're very sorry to hear that it didn't color your gray hair as expected.

Because our hair color is made from 100% natural herbs with no chemical additives, the final result can vary depending on individual hair type and the condition of the hair during application.

For first-time customers who do not achieve the expected results, we offer either a complimentary replacement (the same shade or another shade) or a full refund. Please contact us at customer-service@radicousa.com, and we'll be happy to help you find the best solution.

We sincerely appreciate that you gave our product a try and look forward to making this right for you.

I like that this product is all natural, but the

I like that this product is all natural, but the color is not brown enough. I left my color on for an hour and 20 minutes and followed directions with the boiling water and using the hair dryer a couple times during application. I also reapplied a couple days after first application. My color faded quickly even though I have rinsed and not washed my hair.

Hi Tina, thank you for sharing your experience. We're glad you appreciate the natural ingredients, and we're sorry the color didn't meet your expectations. Feel free to reach out if you'd like any tips or assistance with your next application!hank you for your feedback. We’re glad to hear that you appreciate our 100% natural ingredients.

We’re sorry that the color wasn’t the shade you were hoping for. Because our herbal hair color contains no chemical additives, the final result can vary depending on each person’s hair type and how well the herbal pigments are able to penetrate the hair. Some hair types also hold the color differently.

Since this was your first purchase, we’d be happy to either send you a darker shade at no charge or issue a full refund. Please contact us at customer-service@radicousa.com, and we’ll be happy to help you find the shade that works best for your hair.

Muy bueno y al natural 👌

Me funciono muy bien... lo volveré a repetir

Thank you so much for your kind words!
We’re delighted to hear that our product worked well for you and that you enjoyed the natural results. Knowing that you plan to use it again makes our entire team very happy. Thank you for trusting our organic herbal products, and we look forward to being part of your healthy hair journey for years to come. ✨

Color that lasts

It's a nice product, when applying I noticed it doesn't have any harsh chemical smell. Be prepared to commit two hours for the process. After the first application your hair will turn orange but during the second you will achieve your desired shade. Trust the process.
They did recommend wrapping the beard in plastic but I didn't have any at home. It would have been nice if it was included with the packet. Something form fitting that contours to the jaw line.
Overall I would give it 4.5 out of 5.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review!

We're delighted to hear that you achieved the color you were looking for and appreciated the fact that our beard color contains no harsh chemical odors. You're absolutely right—natural herbal coloring is a process, and trusting that process is often rewarded with beautiful, long-lasting results.

We also appreciate your suggestion about including a beard wrap or form-fitting cover for the jawline. Feedback like yours helps us improve our products, and we will certainly consider it as a future product enhancement idea.

Thank you again for sharing your experience and for helping us make our products even better.

did not receive the gloves with the package

no gloves ?

Thank you for your comment. The disposable gloves and other application items are packed inside the product package, not in the outer shipping envelope.

However, because the kits are packed by hand, there is a small possibility that the gloves were accidentally not included. If your Dark Brown package did not contain the plastic gloves, please contact us at customer-service@radicousa.com and we will send you a replacement Dark Brown package right away.

Do your research and NO IT DOESN'T FADE

As much as they may have tried to help, customer service that answered my questions were wrong about this key piece of information - this DOES NOT FADE as I was told several times. I never would have tried had I known. The colors no matter what I have done after the initial color has come out red. And when I checked back I was told they could not help me anymore and I was referred to the director but I never heard back (as of yet). It is a bummer because I was growing out my gray and now I have to start again BUT I also have hair that looks terrible.

Thank you for your honest feedback, and we’re very sorry for your experience.
We sincerely apologize that our explanation about how the color develops and fades was not clear enough. Because our hair color uses natural plant pigments that bind inside the hair, it can behave differently than expected, and in some cases may not fade as easily as anticipated.
Thanks to your feedback, we have updated our website—especially the top page—to include more detailed information so future customers can better understand how the color works before using it. We truly appreciate you bringing this to our attention.
We’re also very sorry that you did not receive a follow-up response as expected. Thank you again for your feedback—it helps us improve and better support our customers.

Different browns

I do love the products but I am struggling with the colors I purchase and they all turn my hair to a reddish color. My natural color is brown although the grey has taken over. I started with light brown and it turned out almost all red. I contacted Radico and they suggested go to brown which I did. I had mostly brown hair but then it turned to a lot of red. I contacted Radico again and they suggested dark brown. I loved the color and had a little red but after a few weeks I had a lot of red again. I don't like the red streaks in it. Any suggestions as how to achieve just brown hair. I am okay if it turns out a lighter brown or dark brown, I just want brown with no red in it. I love how natural your products are I have also used the conditioners and bar soap, I just need help in obtaining a color without any red in it.

Thank you so much for sharing your detailed experience and for your continued support of our natural products—we truly appreciate it.

When using plant-based hair color, red tones can sometimes appear more strongly if the henna develops more intensely, or if the indigo component does not fully oxidize. Indigo needs moisture in the hair during the first few days after dyeing to complete its transformation into deeper brown or black shades. If the hair tends to dry quickly, the color may shift toward red more noticeably.
To better help you achieve your ideal shade of brown without the red tones, we would love to know more about your hair’s texture and porosity (for example, whether your hair holds moisture well or dries out quickly). This will help us provide you with more personalized guidance so that we can get closer to the rich, natural brown you’re looking for.
We’re here to support you until you find a color you truly love.
