Chemical dye can be damaging, but it all depends. There are brands that are less damaging than others. The thing is that most permanent chemical colours do contain things that lighten the hair, to give hair the correct colour.
Have you considered a semi-permanent dye like Adore? It is vegetable-based and contain no ingredients that harm the hair. It's like Manic panic or similar, the dyes that give really wild colorful hair, but Adore is in much more natural tones. I'd suggest you try that first, to see if that can cover your grays. It's also far cheaper than chemical hair dye.
