Wheat Blonde - Organic Hair Color
$22.95
Wheat Blonde
Colour Me Organic Premium
Certified Organic Hair Color 3.5oz
A soft wheat blonde, made without henna. Five organic herbs, and none of them is henna — which means none of the warm red register our other shades carry underneath. This is one of six henna-free shades we make.
It needs a light base. Plant pigment adds and never lifts, so on medium brown hair a pale wheat tone barely registers and on anything darker it won't show.

What kind of colour this is
Most plant colour starts with henna, and henna gives one thing: a warm red-orange. Every brown and black we make is that warmth with indigo layered over it.
This shade skips henna entirely. Amla leads the list, indigo comes second, and colourless henna third — despite its name, cassia is a different plant with almost no colour of its own. What you get is a cool, soft wheat tone with nothing warm underneath it.

Ingredients
Five certified organic herbs, and no henna at all — one of six shades we make without it, and the only one of our six blondes. Ingredient lists run in order of quantity: amla leads, indigo comes second, and colorless henna third. With no lawsone in the blend, there is no warm red register underneath the tone. That is the whole point of a shade like this.
Important: this shade contains indigo, which a small number of people react to. Patch test before use, especially if you have sensitive skin or have reacted to plant dyes before. Stop use if irritation occurs. 100% organic. Made in India.
FAQ
No. Wheat Blonde is one of six shades we make without henna — the others are Darkest Ash, Dark Ash, Ash, Violet and Sun Blonde. Henna is what gives our other colours their warm red register, and there is none of it here. If you like the idea of plant colour but not the orange-red warmth henna can bring, this is the group to look at.
Yes. Indigo is second on the ingredient list, and with no henna underneath it, it is doing most of the colouring on its own. If you have a known indigo or plant-dye sensitivity, don't use it. If you're unsure, patch test and wait 48 hours.
Not as blonde. Plant pigment adds and never lifts, so a pale wheat tone needs a light base to sit on. On medium brown it barely registers, and on anything darker it won't show. If your hair is dark and you want a cool tone, our Ash shades carry more pigment while staying henna-free.
That is the indigo before it has met the air. It is lighter here than in our darker shades — there is less indigo doing it — and it clears on its own over a day or two as the pigment oxidizes. Judge your colour on day three.
Not on this shade. The vinegar trick works on henna-based colours, where mild acidity helps release lawsone from the leaf. There is no henna here, and acidity actually holds indigo back — so it would cost you colour rather than gain any. Warm water is all this blend needs.
Not while the paste is on, and not for the first 24 hours after rinsing. Warmth helps the colour along, which is why a shower cap works so well — it holds warmth and moisture together. A hair dryer gives you the warmth and takes the moisture, and moisture is what carries the pigment onto the fibre and lets the reaction finish.
It blends grey into a soft wheat tone rather than covering it. Grey takes plant pigment readily — it has no melanin of its own to compete — so on lighter hair with greys the result blends. On darker hair the greys will take the tone while the rest barely changes, which reads as highlights rather than uniform coverage.
Typically about 30–45 days, though this shade fades sooner than our henna-based colours. Henna's pigment forms a covalent bond with keratin; indigo is held in the outer layers instead, so it wears away faster. Strong or clarifying shampoos, frequent washing and very hot water all shorten it further.
No. This is a non-oxidative plant colour with no peroxide or ammonia-type lightening agents, so it deposits colour rather than lifting your natural pigment. A lighter result requires starting with a lighter base.
Tell us. First-time customers who don't get the result they expected can have a different shade sent free, or a full refund on the colour.
It's made from certified organic herbs with no synthetic additives, but any colour product can irritate some people, and indigo in particular causes reactions in a small number. Patch test before full application, especially with sensitive skin or a history of reactions to plant dyes. Stop use if irritation occurs.

The US Pouch
Ordered as Needed, Flown In, Shipped Fresh
Every pouch we sell is handled the same way, from the factory in India to your door, so that it reaches you as close to freshly made as we can manage — and so all 24 shades stay in stock.
1 · In India
Sealed at the factory
Dried, blended, vacuum-packed
The herbs are dried and blended at the factory and vacuum-sealed there, while the powder is fresh. Air is what ages plant powder — henna's pigment breaks down with oxygen, and air-exposed powder smells much stronger.
2 · On the way
Flown in
By the pallet, by air
Each shade is ordered in units of 25, and the shades due for restocking are combined into a pallet of about 1,000 pouches, flown to Torrance, California — days in the air instead of months at sea.
3 · In Torrance
Checked monthly
Each shade, on its own schedule
We check every shade's sales each month and forecast demand from our sales history, with the help of AI. When a shade drops below three to six months of stock, we order about a year to eighteen months' worth — enough to stay in stock, not so much that it sits.
4 · To your door
18 months+
Left on every pouch we send
We ship the oldest stock first, and take any batch with less than 18 months left out of sale. Every order arrives with at least 18 months before its expiry date.
✓5 years unopened, from manufacture — set with room to spare
✓Batch, MFG and EXP printed on every pouch
