I use Herbatint, which is vegan & cruelty-free. It doesn't smell as strong as most other dyes & works very nicely.

Try Henna.
Its is made of leaves from teh henna shrub. Its entirely natural and safe to use.
Famous beauties such as Nefertiti and Cleopatra used Henna to enhance their hair coloring. Cleopatra also used Henna to color her lips and nails. Henna is an alternative to chemical tints which many believe are not healthy and are actually hazardous. The shade of Henna is reflected through your hair while enhancing your hair's natural color. It is also a conditioner.
Your cuticle is smoothed by the sealing action of Henna. This gives your hair a polished look. The hair is protected from the sun and air pollution. Regular use textures and adds shine. It may be applied every 4 to 6 weeks. Because the color blends so naturally and fades gradually, there is never a noticeable regrowth area.
You can get it in powder form. Then mix it with some warm tea water (Lipton or any tea leaves) and break on egg in - for easy application, protein and shine. Mix it to a paste and apply on slightly damp hair. Leave it on till it dries off about 1 hour. Since it can get a bit flacky, i would suggest that you wear a shower cap.
Then simply wash it off. you are done, you'll get a a very natural and rich color - homemade!

Vegan Essentials has just put up a line of vegan hair dyes on their website. I have yet to try them, though. Manic Panic and Special Effects are also vegan, but they're only if you want technicolor hair.
J/A/S/O/N has color-enhancing shampoos that are good.

Lush.com... GREAT stuff, and I believe over 75% of their products are vegan.
All of the vegan products have the little green V by them.
Here is the link to their hair hennas:

If you want funky colors Manic Panic is completely vegan. (:
Natural colors I'm not sure about though.
