"After developing a severe PPD allergy from conventional hair dye, I honestly didn’t know what I was going to do. My hair is long, and I have significant grays — I was terrified of losing both my color and my length. Christine stepped in and completely changed everything for me. Through phone consultations and countless text exchanges, she guided me step-by-step in transitioning to herbal blends — henna, indigo, amla, and cassia — carefully customized for my hair goals. She never once charged me for her time, which still amazes me. Not only did Christine help me safely cover my grays, but my hair is now healthier, stronger, and longer than it’s been in years. The color is rich, dimensional, and natural-looking — exactly what I hoped for but didn’t think was possible after my allergy. Christine’ knowledge, generosity, and genuine care made an overwhelming situation manageable. I am beyond grateful."

“I have a severe hair dye allergy and I finally found something natural that I thought might work for me. I found Christine through a group on Facebook that I had joined for people with allergies to hair dye. I sent her a private message and she replied in a very reasonable time. We set up a time to talk, I sent her photos of my hair and she suggested what products I needed to achieve the color I wanted. Christine then emailed me the directions step by step and sent me the herbal colorants priority mail. The process was very easy and I did some things around the house while coloring my hair. The coverage was great, covered my gray hair, and the color is beautiful and my hair is shiny and soft. Christine went above and beyond to help me with my natural coloring process. I’m so fortunate to have found her, I thought I was going to have to go gray at a very young age!”

"I was looking for a way to stop using chemical dyes on my hair. I am originally a red head and my hair is hard to color now that it’s become white. I attended Christine’s workshop at the Mother Earth News Fair and purchased her book. However, when I ordered my first set of products I was really impressed by her personal touch and offer to help. She answers any questions you have and is so encouraging. Her hair products are trustworthy and work so amazingly well. I look forward to her packages too. When you order you’ll see why Christine’s work is a blessing.”

“Christine has been a wonderful resource for me in using henna and indigo powders. When I first made the decision to leave chemical based hair dyes, she was instrumental in helping me pick colors, length of dye time and how to cover grey hair. She is my go to source for natural hair dye. Always available for a tutorial, consultation, phone call, or just sending pictures, she is invaluable in her expertise on the subject. Not to mention she is kind and always patient. Not sure where I would go to get the same product and level of service if she were not available!“
