Product details

VR Professional Apple Hair Color Cream is a permanent natural black dye that the title describes as ammonia-free and lead-free. It is aimed at people who want long-lasting black coverage for greys with a gentler-smelling cream, though a patch test remains essential.

VR Professional Apple Hair Color Cream is a permanent hair dye in a natural black shade. The title calls out three points buyers often look for: it is ammonia-free, lead-free and permanent. The word Apple appears in the product name, but the title does not specify apple-derived ingredients or their role, so check the listing for the full ingredient list before assuming anything about the formula.

Natural black is usually gentler on the eye than blue-black or jet black. It aims to look like naturally dark Indian hair, which makes it a common choice for people covering widespread greys or wanting a uniform shade after months of mixed regrowth. Because it is permanent, it will not wash out over a few shampoos; it grows out instead, so plan for root touch-ups every few weeks as new hair comes in.

Lead-free is a worthwhile label to look for, given that some older dye products contained lead acetate. Ammonia-free formulas also tend to smell milder, which is helpful if you colour at home in a small bathroom. Neither label guarantees that the product is allergy free, though. Permanent black dyes commonly contain dye intermediates that can trigger reactions in some people, so the 48-hour patch test and a strand test are essential every time.

In Indian weather, black hair colour can lose its depth through sun, sweat and frequent washing. Shield your hair with a scarf or cap in strong sun, rinse in cool water and use a mild shampoo. If you swim, wet hair with plain water first and rinse immediately afterwards to reduce chlorine contact. Compared with henna-indigo methods, a cream like this is far quicker, but it is a chemical dye, so the safety routine matters more.

Before purchasing, confirm the pack size, whether a developer is included or needed, and the expiry date. The title does not mention quantity, so look at the listing images. It was listed around ₹1,359, the same as its MRP, at the time of writing; check the listing for any current offers. Store unopened packs in a cool, dry cupboard, away from the steam and heat of the bathroom, and keep the outer box so you can refer back to the instructions and batch details for your next touch-up session.
