Hair Colour for Sensitive Scalps
Luxury Hair Colour
Without the Harsh Chemicals
At Anagen Hair & Scalp Institute, we believe beautiful hair should never come at the expense of a healthy scalp.
That's why we chose a professional hair colour system that is ammonia-free and PPD-free—carefully selected for clients who want exceptional colour while prioritizing scalp health.
Whether you're colouring your hair for the first time, covering grey, refreshing your look, or you've experienced discomfort during colour appointments in the past, our approach combines luxury with scalp science.
Healthy scalp. Beautiful hair.
Why We Chose
Ammonia-Free & PPD-Free Colour
We chose ours based on scalp health.
Every week we meet clients struggling with:
Sensitive scalps
Itching after colour appointments
Burning sensations
Dryness
Psoriasis
Seborrheic dermatitis
Eczema
Hair thinning
Menopausal scalp changes
As a clinic dedicated to scalp health, we wanted a colour system that aligned with our philosophy—not one that worked against it.
Our ammonia-free, PPD-free colour allows us to deliver rich, beautiful colour while being more considerate of scalp health for many clients.
What Makes Our Colour Different?
Unlike traditional colour systems, our formula was selected because it offers many clients a more comfortable colouring experience.
Benefits include:
Ammonia-Free
No overpowering chemical smell and a more pleasant salon experience.
PPD-Free
Designed for clients looking to avoid para-phenylenediamine (PPD), a common ingredient associated with allergic reactions in some individuals.
Exceptional Grey Coverage
Beautiful, natural-looking coverage without compromising performance.
Brilliant Shine
Rich colour with healthy-looking shine and dimension.
Long Lasting Results
Professional performance with vibrant colour that lasts.
Luxury Experience
Lakeviews, relaxing atmosphere, and personalized care from scalp specialists.
Perfect for Clients Who…
Our colour service may be an excellent option if you:
Have a sensitive scalp
Have experienced burning during previous colour appointments
Live with psoriasis or eczema (pending individual assessment)
Want to avoid strong chemical odours
Want healthier-looking hair
Are experiencing menopause-related scalp sensitivity
Simply want a more luxurious colouring experience
Every scalp is unique, which is why every colour appointment begins with understanding your scalp before we begin your service.
A Scalp-First Approach
At Anagen, your scalp isn't an afterthought.
It's where beautiful hair begins.
Before your colour appointment, we'll assess:
Scalp sensitivity
Dryness
Oil production
Existing irritation
Product build-up
Hair density
Hair condition
If we identify concerns, we can recommend treatments and home care to help support a healthier scalp before and after colouring.
Because healthier scalps support healthier-looking hair.
Pair Your Colour
With a Scalp Facial
One of the things that makes Anagen unique is that we combine professional hair colour with therapeutic scalp care.
Many clients choose to pair their colour appointment with one of our signature scalp facials to help:
Remove buildup
Hydrate the scalp
Support the scalp barrier
Improve overall scalp comfort
Leave both the scalp and hair feeling refreshed
It's colour with a wellness approach.
Is Ammonia-Free
Hair Colour Better?
Ammonia-free colour offers several benefits that many clients appreciate, including a more pleasant experience due to the reduced chemical odour.
While no hair colour can guarantee it won't cause irritation, choosing an ammonia-free, PPD-free professional colour system may be a suitable option for clients seeking a gentler colouring experience.
If you've experienced discomfort with hair colour before, we recommend booking a consultation so we can discuss your scalp history
and determine whether our colour system is appropriate for you.
Why Clients Choose Anagen
Unlike a traditional salon, Anagen combines advanced scalp knowledge with luxury hair services.
Our team understands that hair colour doesn't happen in isolation—it happens on your scalp.
That's why our philosophy is simple:
Protect the scalp. Create beautiful hair. Deliver exceptional results.
