My mom uses it after henna application next day. Her hair looks natural black and stays well for 2 months atkeast. Quantity is great. Quality is great. Go for it. Jist dont use alone it won't work. First day henna mox it with chai water in an iron bowl, add hibisicus powder too if you want hair growth help, bheingraj powder and shikakai, alma powder. Mix cover with plate or cling wrap for 3 days. Keep mixing everyday once and let the oil or dal water on above mox woth rest of the mehndi paste. Mehndi should look dark green to dusty muddy color green. 3 days later apply or more if you want more dark not Orange tinge. Then next day do indigo mix apply no soak. Next day to it or 2 days later apply good amount of oil then shampoo. Make sure you dont shampoo after henna and indigo. Just wash on clean hair. This works best for my mom.

Compared to other products in the market, it is very safe , no allergy issues for me , and it stays long. This was my third Order.

Firstly I used 5 spoon Henna and 5 spoon indigo powder mixed it in normal water ... made a paste applied and left for 2 hours and all my visible white hairs have slightly turned black ... I think this product is working on me ... I am goin to use every week .... for few days ... It will not give immediate results... but slowly it does ... I don't want to use any chemical colors... and Henna is natural it is hair strengthening, it mproves hair texture and shine ... Go for it ... good product

Henna is good indigo powder didnt work on my hair. Finished whole packet but my hair is still white or yellow/ yellowish red 🤷🏻

I have been using this indigo powder along with Banjara's natural Henna for more than 2 years now. I had tried other products like Attar Ayurveda and didn't like the results and it started giving allergies after a while . This one has been the best so far. After henna, I sometimes go as long as 7 days till application of this indigo powder, but still leaves my hair with an Auburn tint. Thankyou for such a great product!

“Although it works as a hair color, it causes a strong burning sensation on the scalp and skin. Pure indigo leaves powder should not cause such irritation, so it seems that some other substances may have been mixed in the product.” Worst experience 👎👎

Remember the colour wheel? Red ( henna ) and blue (indigo ) mixed together makes green!!!!!! BUT DO NOT FORGET THE MOST IMPORTANT ASPECT TO A SUCCESSFUL NATURAL HAIR COLOUR EXPERIENCE IS : knowing the porosity of your hair, CONSISTENT USE and PATIENCE ! What shade/tint/tone do you want your hair to be after application? you may need to experiment with the ratio of henna and indigo mix to achieve your ideal colour goal. This is the first time I have used this product as I have been looking for a non chemical hair colourant for a while now. I have about 15% grey hair & my hair does tend to be more on the dry side. 1st try: I first mixed equal quantity of this indigo powder with henna ( all natural brand ) and 2 tbsp of aloe vera gel with enough water to make a paste that is the consistency of yogurt. Set it aside for about 2 hrs and then applied on my hair. Kept this mask on my hair for about 2.5 hrs and just rinsed off. OMG! it was a disaster! my grey hair had this reddish gold tint to it and that too .... it was not even all over either. I was pretty disappointed but then realized that a couple day before I had applied a very little bit of coconut oil to my hair to keep the from getting frizzy. Figured that might have created a barrier and prevented the mask from colouring my hair and also maybe I had not kept it on for long enough. 2nd try: After 48 hrs of the 1st try I mixed enough indigo powder with warm water to created a paste , set it aside for 20 minutes and then applied on my hair. Kept it on for 2.5 hrs and just washed it off with plain water, did not use any conditioner either. My grey hair that had this weird reddish gold tint was now bluish green!!!!!!!!!! ugh!!!!!!!!!! but not too bad, I could live with it for a couple days but wouldn't go out with that colour on my hair, even though my family said it looked like I had got some fancy streaks on my hair. 3rd try: 24 hrs after the 2nd try I used a herbal moisturising hair mask , left that on for 2 hrs and washed off with shampoo, did not use conditioner ( OMG! my hair is sooooo soft 💕❤️ ). Final result: My hair looks a little less like I have blue green tint ( it's not all gone ), but rather a softer brown black color which is more natural looking. Would I buy this product again? YES!!!!!!!! Things to keep in mind: DO NOT use unless your hair is shampooed and oil free. That means do not use conditioner or any other styling products before you use henna or indigo or a mix of both on your hair. Ideally shampoo your hair a day or 2 before you use this method of hair colouring. Keep in mind if you hair is naturally oily, you might have to shampoo on the day before you use this pack. For those with drier hair...... indigo does tend to make you hair a bit dry, so keep that in mind. Here are the live and learn points: I am going to use the following ratio of henna and indigo hence forth. 1 part henna with 3 parts indigo. Remember do not use any oil in this mix as oil will create a barrier and wont allow complete saturation of colour on your hair. I do not plan on using aloe vera gel either. In fact just use tepid/warm water to mix henna ( in any air tight container/bowl )separately and set aside for at least 2 hours . 20 to 30 minutes before you want to start colouring.... mix the indigo powder with tepid / warm water and set aside. Just before you apply to your hair mix both premixed henna and indigo together, give it a good whisk and apply. How long to leave on depends on: patience, porosity of your hair and how much grey you have to cover or is it just for a nice tint on your natural hair. This indigo powder does stain hands, skin, counter top , clothes etc so REMEMBER TO USE PROTECTIVE GLOVES AND COVER YOUR COUNTER TOP AND KEEP A DEDICATED SHIRT OR BLOUSE JUST FOR THIS PROCESS. ALSO AFTER APPLYING THIS MASK COVER YOUR HAIR WITH A SHOWER CAP TO KEEP THE MASK FROM DRYING OUT. GOOD LUCK.

It’s been using this henna for 2 years now. The henna covers greys naturally by giving them a dark brown colour. It’s herbal so safe for the hair and scalp. My hair isn’t dry post usage as I always condition my hair well. I use only the henna and not indigo as I want a brown shade in colour. As per my hair growth requirement, I use the henna once a month. After 4-5 usage of shampoo the colours becomes lighter but doesn’t completely fade. Once my grey roots emerge I colour them again. I’ve tried other Organic henna too but Carmel Organics henna works best for my hair. The complete process for henna application requires 2-3 days but since it’s herbal and does its job well, it’s worth all the hassle. Would definitely recommend this product to anyone who wants to colour their greys but not with chemicals or dyes.
