Bigen's powder has been around long enough that plenty of people learned to colour on it. You mix it with water rather than a developer, which is why the packs are small and why there is nothing left over to throw away at the end.

There is no ammonia in the formula, so the smell that comes with conventional dye is absent, and it is a common pick for anyone whose scalp reacts badly to the usual stuff. Grey coverage is complete and it holds, which is the reason it stayed popular through decades of newer formats turning up.

  • Water activated, with no separate developer to buy
  • Ammonia free and gentle on a sensitive scalp
  • Full grey coverage that lasts
  • Mixed fresh each time, so nothing goes to waste

The full shade range is available, and it is used by men and women alike. 6 g (0.21 oz) per pack.

Application tips

Tip the powder into a non-metal bowl and add warm water a little at a time, stirring until it is about the thickness of single cream. Too thin and it runs, too thick and it drags.

Apply with a brush to dry hair, roots first. Because you mix it fresh, make only as much as the head in front of you needs. Rinse without shampoo, then condition.

Results

Grey covers solidly rather than tinting, and the tone sits close to natural hair instead of reading as dye. Colour holds through repeated washing, which is why this format has outlasted several generations of newer ones. It is a common choice for anyone who finds conventional dye uncomfortable on the scalp. Expect a natural depth rather than a glossy salon finish.
