Better Natured Haircolor 1B Blue Black 2oz is a salon-quality permanent hair color designed to deliver a rich midnight blue shade with deep inky black undertones. This shade is recommended for black to light brown hair and is suitable for up to 50% gray hair. When gray coverage is needed at 75%–100%, add 1N to the color formula; applying without 1N may yield more intense blue tones. This shade is marketed as 90% naturally-derived, aligning with the Global ISO Standard 16128 for a plant or mineral derived material and water-based formulation.
Expect a vibrant, dimensional result that lasts up to 8 weeks, with a fragrance inspired by tropical passion flowers, and a liquid-crème viscosity that offers flexibility whether you mix in a bottle or a bowl and brush. Mixing capabilities let you customize results by blending shades in equal parts color and developer, giving you the freedom to craft nuanced tones while maintaining reliable gray coverage.
