Hair Colour Used

Beyond Beauty Salon uses Aveda hair colour. Aveda colour is exclusive to salons. Aveda colour has long held a reputation for being pure, natural, safe and environmentally friendly. Aveda brands itself as “providing beauty industry professionals with high performance, botanically based products that would be better for service providers and their guests, as well as for the planet.”

Aveda salon dye products seem to be the best solution available today. Ninety-nine percent of Aveda’s demi-permanent dye is plant-derived, and the permanent dyes are 97 percent plant-based. The results are nice—the hair color is surprisingly natural looking, and the dyes aren’t nearly as drying to the hair because they don’t contain harsh petrochemical solvents.  The hair colour lasts as long or even longer as any chemical hair colour and are just as beautiful.

Various salon brands of hair dye are almost all 100 percent synthetic and petroleum-based. The dyes are usually the controversial oxidative dyes. Aveda uses oxidative dyes like the rest of the industry (albeit in a small percentage), because so far there are no plant formulas that can provide consistent, long-lasting dyes. Oxidative dyes make up the 1 to 3 percent synthetic ingredients of the Aveda formulations.

Oxidative dyes have no pre-existing colors until they are combined and joined with oxidizing ingredients. Most dyes use a synthetic to do this, but Aveda did research into essential oils and plant extracts, and have found and patented a process to oxidize the dye using green tea extract. Not only is the end process less petroleum-based, but the result is more natural looking. The common base formulas for dyes are petrochemical solvents, and in this process Aveda has substituted protective and lubricating plant oils in the formula so that it is significantly less drying to the hair than the solvents normally used.

Our Product Philosphy

We at Beyond Beauty believe that we need to care for our enviroment and ourselves.  It is for this reason that all products must pass our high standard of excellence and fullfil our strict criteria

Top-of-the-range products  used by Beyond Beauty Salon & Spa need to fullfil the following criteria:

use advanced plant technology
contain natural preservatives where possible
are environmentally responsible
do not contain artificial fragrances
do not contain animal ingredients
are not tested on animals
deliver visible results
must not use nanno technology

What is Nanno Technology?

The beauty industry has taken up this technolgoy with gusto but studies have suggested that nanoparticles now used by the cosmetics industry can cause lung damage, cell toxicity, damage DNA, and possibly even harm unborn children. Europe has passed new laws that will require most nano-ingredients in cosmetics to face new safety testing and mandatory labelling. Australian nano-cosmetics remain unlabelled and effectively unregulated   (read more on Nanno here)
