Choosing the best natural hair dye depends on several factors: the shade you are looking for, your current hair color, whether you want to cover gray hair, and, above all, the type of ingredients you want to use in your coloring routine. Unlike conventional dyes, natural hair dyes seek to offer an alternative based on plant-derived ingredients, such as henna and other plants traditionally used to provide color. It is not only important that it be natural, but also the quality of the crops to ensure the best pigmentation.
If you are thinking of changing your hair color and want to know which option might suit you best, in this guide we present the main Fátima natural dye shades and some accessories that can help you enjoy a more practical coloring experience.
What should you consider when choosing a natural hair dye?
Before choosing a color, it is important to take into account your current hair tone and the result you wish to achieve. Natural dyes can produce different results depending on the base on which they are applied, so the same shade may look different on each person's hair.
It is also advisable to consider whether you are simply looking to add highlights and luminosity, intensify your natural color, achieve a darker shade, or give a new tone to gray hair.
Another important aspect is to check the product's ingredients. If you are looking for a natural alternative, pay attention to the composition and choose products made with plant-derived ingredients and formulated specifically for hair coloring.
What is the best natural hair dye?
There is no single shade that is the best for everyone. The best natural dye will be the one that adapts to the result you want to achieve and the characteristics of your hair.
Fátima has a variety of shades that range from warm and luminous options to deeper and darker colors.
Gold
The Gold shade is ideal for those looking to add luminosity and warm highlights to their hair, achieving a natural-looking result. On light hair, it provides visible golden tones, and on gray hair, it helps tone them toward a warm golden blonde.
This shade is especially recommended for naturally light hair or completely gray hair. On dark hair, whether natural or dyed, gray hair may take on a lighter gold tone than the rest of the hair, making them noticeable due to the contrast with the dark base.

Amber
The Amber shade is ideal for those looking to add warmth and intensity to their hair with reddish and copper undertones. On light hair and gray hair, it provides brighter and more visible copper-red tones, achieving a warm and vibrant result.

Which natural dye shade should you choose?
A simple way to guide your choice is to think first about the result you want:
- Light and luminous tones: Gold.
- Copper and reddish tones: Amber and Mahogany.
- Warm brown tones: Earth, Coffee, and Almond.
- Dark brown tones: Walnut and Ebony.
- Black tone: Onyx.
Keep in mind that the final result depends on the hair's base color, the proportion of gray hair, and other factors. Therefore, it is advisable to consider the current tone before choosing the color.
Natural dyes for covering gray hair
One of the reasons why many people look for natural hair dyes is because they want to cover their gray hair, change or intensify their color, and, at the same time, reduce the use of conventional oxidative dyes.
Unlike many traditional permanent dyes, which need oxidizing and alkalizing agents to open the cuticle, penetrate the fiber, and modify the hair's natural pigment, vegetable dyes provide color without the need to lighten the hair beforehand. In this way, they become an especially interesting alternative for those who want a coloring routine that is kinder to the hair fiber.
When it comes to gray hair, the result will depend on the amount of white hair, the base color, and the selected shade. Since they do not lighten the hair, the pigment adapts to the tone on which it is applied, so gray hair and lighter areas usually show the color with greater intensity.
For those looking to integrate gray hair with deeper tones, options such as Walnut, Ebony, and Onyx can provide darker results and greater visual coverage. Conversely, lighter tones, earth, gold, copper, or reddish shades can be used to transform gray hair into visible highlights and undertones that add dimension to the hair.
In all cases, it is important to follow the specific product instructions and perform a patch test to know how your hair responds and have a reference for the final result.
