Natural black, dark brown or jet black?
2/0 Black on the BlossomK shade card is a natural black: deep and even, without the flat blue tint some very dark dyes give. It is the most popular grey coverage shade in Pakistan.
If pure black looks too harsh on you, or your grey is mixed with brown hair, 3/0 Dark Brown gives a softer, almost-black result that grows out more gently. A blue-black jet black is a different, fashion shade.
| Shade | Result | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| 2/0 Black | Natural, deep black | Full grey coverage, men and women with naturally black hair |
| 3/0 Dark Brown | Soft, almost-black | A gentler look and softer regrowth lines |
Colour cream or black hair color shampoo?
Black hair color shampoos are quick and easy, but they colour less evenly and grey can show through sooner. A permanent colour cream mixed with developer gives the most even, long-lasting black and up to 90% grey coverage with BlossomK natural shades.
If you already use a colour shampoo and grey shows through, switching to a cream for your next application usually gives a more even result.
Black hair color for men
Men use exactly the same method. Short hair needs less product, often half a pack, and is quicker to apply evenly. Choose 2/0 for full coverage or 3/0 if you want the grey to blend rather than disappear.
Use hair colour on scalp hair only. Do not use it on eyebrows or eyelashes.
How to apply black hair color at home
- Do a patch test and a strand test 48 hours before.
- Mix the colour cream 1:1 with a 6% (20 volume) developer.
- Apply to dry hair in sections, roots and grey areas first.
- Leave for 25 to 35 minutes, rinse until the water runs clear and condition.

A shampoo is quicker, but a permanent colour cream with developer gives more even colour and stronger grey coverage, and lasts until the hair grows out.

Touch up the roots every four to six weeks as new hair grows. Apply only to the regrowth to avoid building up colour on the lengths.
