Natural Hair Dye - Organic Henna & Indigo Hair Colour 200g

I have used henna/indigo before so the process of mixing it isn't new to me. If it was, that might knock a star off as it can be overwhelming first time. I used henna with a dilute acid-water mix (lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, water) and left it for 2.5 hours next to a hot water tank. When I was ready to dye, I mixed up less indigo (about half of the henna volume) with water, swished it all together, then applied. This sat on for 2.5 hours under cling film, then rinsed and washed as normal. I should have done less indigo as I wanted it redder (my mistake), but the quality of the end result is 10/10. Shiny, solid, natural looking dark brown.

I’m very happy with this henna and indigo hair dye. The ingredients feel truly natural, and I didn’t experience any irritation or strong chemical smell. It covered my grays well and left my hair feeling soft, healthy, and shiny instead of dry. The color looks natural and deep, and it lasted longer than I expected. It does take some time to apply and process, but the results are worth it. Great option for anyone looking to avoid chemical dyes.

I have dark hair with some grey, particularly showing at the front. I use the henna first, separately from the indigo. So it is a process! Soak the henna overnight, grease the face to prevent stains, apply to hair, leave in for 4-6 hours. Rinse, with just water. Tangly hair! Mess to clear up, residues on skin etc. I do the indigo paste almost immediately after rinsing the henna. This time I went darker than I have before. The grey is covered well, the colour is deep. If you can do the process and let it all settle well, it is a much nicer result than a box dye. In my humble opinion.

The henna and indigo were both worth the money. Both worked well and I have reordered another packet through the subscription service.

Henna is red, Indigo is blue, when mixed together you get brown. At about 1:1 ratio you get dark-ish brown, and 2 indigo to 1 henna gives nice very dark brown. The dye is unlikely to cause allergy, although any plants have this capacity. If you never tried, then mix them with water separately, let them stay on a radiator for a couple of hours, then mix together and apply for half an hour. Half an hour will give a partial effect - look, assess and adjust the proportions and timing. Note that the colour will keep changing, darkening, becoming more natural for several hours after application. It covers greys alright.

Good quality, with instructions

I’m allergic to hair dye so when I found these I was over the moon, takes a long time so make sure you set a few hours aside to tackle the dyeing task but so easy to use And have tried mother’s that don’t work as good

I have used these products before and loved it, got really great results,but appear to have been sent a stale/low content package of indigo. The henna worked exactly as it should, gave a fantastic colour payoff, but the indigo did not release colour upon mixing, and after spending 4 hours developing on the hair, made little difference to the colour. I suspected something was off while mixing, there was no evidence of it oxidising as it should have. Having dyed my hair with Henna and Indigo before, and with these products, it was a diappointing experience - previously I achieved a lovely, lustrous black, but this time around all the indigo did was tone the henna to the point of a washed out auburn, which was not the desired effect.

Gute Qualität und die Konsistenz ist sehr gut. Leichtes Auftragen. Ich werde nie wieder die üblichen Produkte aus den Bioläden / Reformhäusern kaufen. Habe 50/50 gemischt 2 Löffel mehr von Indigio genommen und es ist Haselnuss / Milchschoko braun geworden auf grauem Haar nach 4 Std einwirken. Das pure Henna dafür Stunden vorher schon angerührt. Die restlichen dunkelbraunen Haare haben sicherlich auch etwas Farbe abbekommen. Für intensiveres braun würde ich aber etwas mehr als 50/50 mischen.
