    What I Hoped.
    I recently stop perming my hair and was searching for a hair coloring that had no ammonia or peroxide in it. I went to the beauty supply store and one of the sales associates told me to try Bigen. I wanted black so I picked up #59, oriental black. I did a patch test, but I didn't even leave the product on my skin for 24 hrs before I got impatient and wanted to just get on with it. AFTER I colored it, I decided to do some online research and came across this site. Needless to say I was about to have a panic attack thinking I would be planning my trip to the ER very soon. I am very happy to say, I got the rich color I wanted without any side effects. The product is very easy to use. What has happened to some people on this site is really terrible and I will continue my search for something with a little less horror stories attached to it. I won't say I will never use Bigen again, but I will continue my research in the interim. Since this is my first time using it, I gave it 4 stars instead of 5.

    Just Finished Using It
    I had just applied the product while I reading the reviews. I got so scared. So I only left it in for 15 minutes. So far, no burning, swelling or any other reaction. There was no lost of hair. Further, I had the best coverage of gray I have ever had, and I have used some of the most expensive products on the market. I hope there will not be any reactions later but so far, so good. If there are no reactions, I will product again. I can't believe that my gray is so black.WoW!!!!

    Worked Great!
    My hair was a mixture of light brown/dark brown before, and I wanted a product to dye it jet black without chemicals. This dye worked great for my really thick, dry, coarse hair and lasted for a long time, its also easy to use and has very simple instructions. Its just now starting to fade (I dyed it almost a year ago) which is great because I'm going to switch up my hair color again! I recommend this product but would suggest you read the directions and go to a stylist for a second opinion (or to test it out) because I've heard that different people get different results!

    Great Color
    I have read all the horror stories, but I don't have any. I started using Bigen when I was in high school ( 1996). I have never have any problems or allergic reactions to it. My sister has used it as well and have had no problems. I uses it just as the directions say. I have used it periodically on and off since high school. I have great results. The color last for months. I have maybe 12 fierce gray hairs that I like to cover and my hair is naturally light brown and I want it to be jet black. This product gives me the look I am looking for. It also adds a shine or gloss to the hair. I love it. I don't suffer from any allergies, so may be that is why this product works for me.

    Permanent Hair Loss
    Beware! I have used this product (black) two years ago and it caused scalp irritation, itchiness, and hair loss at top of scalp. Now after two years, I still have scalp irritation and itchiness. And I have permanent hair loss.

    Safe And Never A Problem
    I have used Bigen dyes 46 and 47 on my blonde eyebrows for about 4 years. I have sensitive skin and have never had an allergic reaction. I love that you can mix up just enough product for a small job without a lot of waste. You can add water to make the consistency you need, and blend the powder from two or more colors easily. I use an artist's brush to put the paste on my eyebrows, wait about 8 minutes, then shower it off - voila!

    A box lasts me several months and the powder seems to keep for years. There is absolutely no odor. My eyebrows seem shinier after I use this product.

    This dye is from Nagoya JAPAN by the way - not China.

    Pleased Customer!
    My stylist used Bigen on my hair because my gray hair was very hard to cover. She assured me that if the product did not completely cover my gray that my hairstyle would be free of charge. She was right! For the first time in years I was satisfied with the results. Fortunately, I did not have an allergic reaction because no "test" was done prior to applying Bigen to my hair. I am sold on this product and will continue to use it.
