How does Schwarzkopf Re-Nature work?
Gray hair does not necessarily mean that you have to use a conventional hair dye. Schwarzkopf Re-Nature takes a different approach: it is a re-pigmentation cream designed to gradually bring gray hair closer to its natural tone.
How Does Re-Nature Work?
Unlike a conventional hair color that deposits or changes color directly, Re-Nature uses an air-activated re-pigmentation formula. The ready-to-use cream is applied directly to dry, unwashed hair and does not need to be mixed before application.
The result develops gradually. Depending on your natural hair color, the desired result, and the application time, you can build up the color step by step rather than making a sudden change from gray to a darker shade.
Schwarzkopf offers Re-Nature for men in two main shades: Medium Blonde to Medium Brown and Dark Brown to Black.
How Do You Use Schwarzkopf Re-Nature?
Re-Nature is designed to be straightforward to use at home. The cream is applied evenly to dry, unwashed hair. Gloves should be worn, and clothing should be protected before application.
The recommended processing time depends on the shade and your natural hair color. Schwarzkopf states that the product can react differently depending on the hair structure, so the instructions supplied with the product should always be followed.
For the first application, Re-Nature can be used over the whole head when the hair is evenly gray or applied selectively, for example to gray areas around the temples. After the recommended processing time, the hair is rinsed thoroughly with lukewarm water and washed with the included Re-Nature shampoo.
Why Is the Result Gradual?
One of the main differences between Re-Nature and conventional hair coloring is the gradual approach. If the first application does not produce the desired result, Schwarzkopf recommends allowing several days for the tone to develop before making another application.
The manufacturer also gives different recommendations for the Medium and Dark versions. Repeated applications can create a more intense result, while the processing time also affects the intensity.
Once the desired tone has been reached, Re-Nature does not need to be applied continuously to the entire head. Schwarzkopf recommends concentrating subsequent applications on newly grown gray hair when necessary.
Which Re-Nature Shade Is Right for You?
The shade should be chosen according to your natural hair color, not simply according to how dark you would like your hair to look.
- Medium: designed for natural hair ranging from medium blonde to medium brown.
- Dark: designed for natural hair ranging from dark brown to black.
If you are unsure which version is appropriate, it is important to compare your natural hair color with the shade information on the package before applying the product.
Re-Nature Is Different from Conventional Hair Dye
Re-Nature is intended for men who want to reduce the appearance of gray hair without using a conventional permanent hair color. Instead of making a single, immediate color change, the re-pigmentation process is designed to build the result gradually.
That makes the product particularly interesting for someone who wants to keep some control over how much gray remains visible. The frequency of application and processing time can influence the final result, within the manufacturer’s instructions.
