Aussie Family behind the brand

Founder Charmaine Burnett wanted to create a natural alternative to commercial hair colours after developing severe psoriasis while using them herself. Inspired by the book “Silent Spring”, she made this dream come true with Desert Shadow, a range of certified organic hair colours and hair treatments creating natural pigments for the hair by using raw plants.

Since 2008, her range has bought forth a range of all-natural shades of colours that help in repairing dry and damaged hair and can last 4-6 weeks before fading. No more bad hair days!

Desert Shadow is certified organic by NASAA (National Association for Sustainable Agriculture, Australia) meaning the ingredients are farmed, harvested and processed ethically. The products come in 100% post-consumer recycled boxes making the whole product safe for you, your family and the planet you live in.

      First henna that actually covers grey hair!

      "Amazing! It actually cover grey hair and last!"

      Elisa (5/5)

      Excellent product

      "Bought for my teen daughter with sensitive skin and she had no reaction. Her hair is lush and shiny and colour is very rich. Would highly recommend."

      Aleksandra H. (5/5)

      Beautiful product highly recommend it

      "Beautiful product – highly recommend it! I’ve used this dye a few times and love it. I leave it on for four hours, and while it’s amazing for covering grey, I actually see it as more of a treat for my hair than just a dye. My hair has become shinier and healthier since using it. It does make the hair feel dry at first, but if you follow the instructions and use a good conditioner after, the result is absolutely beautiful. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a natural and nourishing alternative to chemical dyes."

      Rawha C. (5/5)

      I love henna hair dye

      "The dye takes a little bit more work than regular boxed dye, but it is worth it, I adore how my colour turned out! The henna has also made my hair less frizzy, softer and more full now. Go For Zero is a great company to buy from, they gave me a small gift in my last order, the shipping is fast and well-packaged."

      Kiarna T. (5/5)

      "Pretty good considering it’s all natural! Just a bit more red result than I was aiming for."

      Sophia A. (5/5)

      Best natural hair dye

      "I have been using desert shadow for more than 6 months. It does require a bit of planning before colouring but for a healthy natural dye, I can put up with it. It covers well with grey hair. The delivery is very fast and the package is well wrapped. Will shop again at go for zero !"

      Desert Shadow hair colour

      "Using this organic , water based colour takes a lot more effort and time but it delivers a great colour to my hair, as well as keeping my scalp chemical free! Win-win!!"

      Anu C. (5/5)

      INCREDIBLE RESULTS

      "I used this product the first time ever colouring my hair, I was very nervous about the colour. The shade was a perfect match and it covered most of my greys (not all because I did not leave the henna in long enough.) I'm very pleased that there's not a hint of red. It's a beautiful dark brown with brown tones that really stand out in the sunlight. My hair feels so healthy and shiny. My hair is very curly, I found that it's now a lot less frizzy without having to use any products and when straightened it will stay straight and tamed. The best part is that there's no harsh chemicals and my hair feels stronger. I found the tutorials very useful also 👌 Give this a go! You won't be disappointed."
