- Indigo is a natural Ayurvedic plant-based dye (vegan) that is used with henna to color hair reddish-brown, brown, dark brown, and up to black tones. It lasts 4-6 weeks and will cover greys.In this video, henna and indigo hair coloring expert Khadija is showing you how to properly mix your indigo for optimal results.
TIPS TO REMEMBER:
Indigo can only be mixed with warm to hot distilled water and some aloe vera powder for moisture (only a small amount is needed). Salt is optional as some claim it helps the indigo stick better to their hair strands. Indigo only needs max 20-30 minutes for dye release and it's ready to use.
Do NOT use indigo alone! It MUST be used with henna either as a 1-step process by mixing it with henna, or as a 2-step process after applying a henna treatment.
DISCLAIMER:
Indigo can be an allergen even though it's a natural plant dye. Do skin patch tests before using any new henna and indigo hair color treatments or Ayurvedic herbs.

Today early morning i put the normal henna for 2 hours then i washed it with conditioner only “no shampoo” and brushed it then washed it again. Then i tried the indigo as directed here in the video i kept it for one hour on my head, and the result is dark brown almost black the gray hair is completely covered and l am vey happy with the result.. thank you
Ccbbxu
Oh yes. These are THE WORDS I've been searching for. Thank you much!
Ooh yes! 😍 Does it fade out over the weeks to show the red from the henna? Or does it stay dark?
@@tinkgirl well, i use it every 2 weeks for the gray hair but haven’t noticed that it fades.. it stay dark

Hi greetings from Mumbai India I first apply henna (kept it overnight with tea coffee lime aloevera gel in an iron vessel overnight) then next day apply indigo paste my hair turns dark brown
Hi ! I have dark ashy blond hair that's more on the thin and slightly wavy side of hair texture. I've done cassia masks in the past to save my hair from various chemical bleaching/colours that ruined my hair and scalp. It worked great but i'd like to try and dye my hair brown (not too dark i don't want it too be too harsh on my Caucasian paleness 😅) but I'm terrified to use indigo. Is their an minimum amount i could use for it to have lighter tones? Do you have any tips?
🙏🙏🙏 Thanks

Hi I bought indigo powder by ayumi, i coloured my hair with henna two days ago and now I made the indigo mixture with warm water I added a bit of coconut oil as last time the indigo powder can make the hair extremely dry the indigo paste was a bit blue but not like the mixture u made is this right
Thank you somuch for sharing very helpful video, I have a question my hair is white and I want try mehandi and after indigo powder, I don’t want to use hair dye with chemicals, but my scalp is very sensitive, I feel itchy scalp, I don’t have dandruff and I always have oil in my hair so please let me know.
Thank you 🙏
Can i use indigo alone on my hair for grey hairs ? Does it give blue or green color ? Please reply!
Do you know any cassia or a little bit of henna mostly indigo hair masks to get rid of brassiness in hair?! Thank you💓💕🥰
What are the mix ratio's for colors?
I made 2 steps. First step I used Red Raj and left it for 24 hours and then I applied it on my hair and I left it for one hour, but when I made secound step with indigo and l left it for 3 hours on my hair I didn't get the color. Should I leave more time the Red Raj on my first step, like 2 hours perhaps so when it comes to indigo could I get the dark color?
Hi khadija can i get same results of darkning red henna hair or new white hair to darker shade not red ? I live in africa 😬 can i try ur recipe with natural henna just grounded henna and indigo powder
Great video.
Thanks for uploading.
Thank you so much for appreciating!
can´t I apply indigo right after mixing it? I´ve done it since the beginning, but now you made me feel in doubt.
If leaf over paste is there can we use it later
Can l mix indigo and henna powder together then use it?
Can I mix indigo powder with Amla powder nd hibiscus powder nd henna powder
The color I get is very beautiful black color using 2 step indigo henna process.... But the problem is....... It comes out in just one hair wash..... Please suggest
I want to colour white hair to black.
Hw to apply heena n indigo.
I tried many time in diffarnt way.
Heena+ indigo
1st heena wash dn apply indigo
Ect. Bt doesnt work.
Pls suggest dnt need redish tone.
Vry dark or black.
Pls pls pls
I cn also add amla dahi wtevr requird
How do you know salt will make it stick to the hair? are there any other things to add that will help it stick? It never covers my gray but I really like the way it makes my hair so dark. To be honest with you, I do use it by itself because I can't stand the orange red I get from the henna.
I heard that it isn’t necessary to use henna if the natural hair is already black. So, one step with Indigo is all I begin to do, and it works fine. I believe, the two step is only because a person having a bit of gray, than the two step is better to cover the gray; but, if it’s not a lot of gray, why not just use the henna only where needed. I am happy with the one step.
@@elizabethbirdallgreer2773 INdigo by itself turns hair green.
Can you do a video of how to turn white hair to dark brown/black by doing the One Step henna and indigo mixture?
Let me know whether I can mix Amla powder, Methi powder, Hibiscus powder, Black Mendi and Indigo powder with curds and apply on my hair
What are curds? Sorry for my delayed reply btw. I don't know honestly if that blend of herbs will work as it sounds like a lot and not enough henna to allow the indigo to cling properly. Your "black mehndi" can be unpredictable as who knows what's in it as it has to contain other ingredients as well since henna, is a natural red dyeing herb.
Thanks gor the reply, I am newbie to henna, I tried today the henna with the indigo mixed in but my grey looks orange so can I do only the indigo for the riot touch up. Can you give me the measurements please. I have short hair.
Hello! We have a complete guide that you can follow here to help you in the process of coloring your hair: hennasooq.com/blogs/frontpage/complete-guide-how-to-color-your-hair-with-henna-and-indigo/. We hope this helps!
Thank you for the video.
1) What will happen if the indigo does rest more than 30 minutes?
2) Is it still safe to use or will it not work?
I’ve been using indigo for 3+ years. It is still safe to use if it sits longer. I’ve found it becomes less effective if it sits out more than 45 minutes. Then I just keep it on my hair longer.
@@Nyx773 Thank you so much for the input. I appreciate you.
What products would you use before using henna and after using indigo?
Someone said to use indigo before a henna treatment. Confused.
As per the video and comments, indigo must be used 1-2 days after henna.
How long do you leave the indigo paste on your hair for???
One hour is enough
Gr8888! Should it be covered when sitting to release dye?
It doesn't have to but you can :)
Did you mix henna with the indigo ? I used to mix my henna and put that on my head rinsed out . I then mixed my indigo and put that on top . My hair grew stronger and my color was almost black with a blue hue in the light . I’m not sure if I did it right but my hair loved it ♥️
Hello Madam.could I get black colour of my hair (which are alrady white) from indigo used with mehandi. plz tell me that from where should I purchase indigo. Please do answer me THANKS.
Our indigo can be purchased here: hennasooq.com/indigo-for-hair/
Can I mix with normal water
What do you think about adding black coffee to the indigo?
because it's so acidic it's not going to allow the indigo to have a proper dye release. You really don't need coffee, warm to hot water works best.
Do I have to use red henna before the indigo or can it be neutral colorless henna? fantastic vid, I finally am understanding everything I’ve been doing wrong lol
You must use henna with indigo or else then indigo will leave a green hue. The "neutral henna" aka cassia obovata won't help the indigo work well. What color are you trying to aim for?
@@HennaSooq thank you so much for the reply! thats def what i assumed. Im trying to get my hair as black as possible!
but I'm sick of using toxic hair dyes lol so I'm praying henna is ok
What are the important steps after applying this mix, like washing or oiling or shampooer etc
Before doing your natural hair coloring, you would prewash your hair with our Hair Wash found here: hennasooq.com/hair-care/shampoo/ and then you cowash the color out with this: hennasooq.com/conditioners/ and lastly you would moisturize from these products: hennasooq.com/oils/ We hope this helps.
Should i wash indigo with shampoo or just rinse it and leave it to oxidise if so after how many days can i use shampoo. Thx
Sorry for my delayed reply. But you should prewash ideally and then use henna/indigo and then cowash it all out and allow the color a few days to settle before going back to your regular wash routine. Cooler water helps when rinsing too.
Can I use rose powder, or any other hydrating powder instead of aloe if there's no aloe on hand?
You can try to do so. But I don't know if it will be as moisturizing as aloe vera powder and for indigo it may inhibit the indigo from working.

My indigo doesn't get the metallic look until 2hrs after mixing?
I think 2 step application work better.. First apply henna f0r 3 or 4 hrs. On without oil hair.. then next day apply indigo process for 2-3 hrs. And don't use shampoo and oil for 2 or 3...after 2 or 3 days shampoo and oil can be use.. Repeat this process after 20 days.. Again and again application of this 2 step process will make hair 95% black (can get desire results)....keep patience 😊 for getting result and product should be 100% pure
That's great! Perfect. Thank you for sharing.
Can you please tell me which brand of indigo n heena you used?
Hello,thanks so much for your insights. So fir me, I have light brown hair and some Grey's.. i want to henna it but don't want it to turn orange...so can you tell me ratio for henna and indigo please. Thank you 🌸
Hello. You can refer to this guide to help you in the process and how much use: hennasooq.com/blogs/frontpage/complete-guide-how-to-color-your-hair-with-henna-and-indigo/
I applied Henna yesterday, oiled overnight and shampooed today but still showing orange strands and want to use Indigo now, will it work? Or will I have to reapply Henna again?
We can use Indigo powder within 72 hours after henna application. Not more than that. I always apply indigo after 24 to 48 hours of Henna.
Hi , I had done henna indigo treatment a lot a week ago but the colour started to stall in just couple of days . My hair is now reddish brown . Can I use indigo alone or shall I do the entire process of henna indigo from scratch?
Usually you can use indigo right after but it has to be within 4-5 days from the last application max. Did you end up trying again?
I applied my henna first step. After washing my whole hair was coffee brown/ red. So I was scared I hope when applying the indigo it will totally b black. I also noticed after mixing my indigo it was taking time to turn black or brown . I hope it will work
Whatz the result?
Yes how did it turn out?
Results?
ممتازة ماء عادي وليس مقطر بدون ملح وبعض الزبادي
Do you have any tips to prolong its coloring?
make sure to use color safe shampoo and conditioners such as what we have at Henna Sooq. If your hair is short it's a little tough to control that as short hair is very visible quickly. Make sure to get a very good color penetration as well. We hope this helps some.
@@HennaSooq Hi I'm a man. Please suggest me a anti-dandruff color safe shampoo
If you have brown hair can you make it black with this? Or does it just shade it?
Yes it can become black with indigo but you have to use it with henna. Henna is the base that helps the indigo cling to the hair stands to color your hair black.
Hi, can you get a blueish hue in your hair with indigo and henna? I have dark almost black hair.
Yes for sure with many henna and indigo applications as a 2 step process. It takes some building up to.
I am applying henna and indigo 5 times and colour not comes in my hair . 4 times I am applying 2 steps process and 1 times I am applying 1 step process. my hair comes red but black or brown color not comes .
firstly 4 times I am using attar Ayurveda products henna and indigo and colour not comes in my white hair
then I using diamond indigo powder but colour not comes mam in My hair.
I am trying all the way . but I am sad 😥 the colour not come .
which company product do you use suggest me .
How long do you keep indigo on your hair and do I wash it off with shampoo
You should keep indigo on for 3-4 hours. Please visit hennasooq.com/blog/complete-guide-how-to-color-your-hair-with-henna-and-indigo/ on a more detailed step by step process on how-to color your hair with indigo.
After I apply the henna for the first step, would i need to let my hair dry before applying the indigo? Thank you!
No, apply on damp hair
Can you add an apple vinegar or warm water is just enough ?
Yes, you may add acv
Is there any benefits indigo or is it just to change the color?
Lynn E it’s used just to change the color.
I use just indigo to colour my hair . Make my hair thick and looks beautiful.
Update: u used too often and my ends is dry now...
Thank you
So how can one get it
you can order with us here: hennasooq.com/indigo-for-hair/
So what do you reccomend. Should we apply henna on Day one, wash it and and apply indigo powder mix the next day? How long to keep the indigo powder applied before wash?
I have ordered henna and indigo powder and will be trying it for the first time. I used to apply hair color but I'm wanting to look at more natural options. Pls guide.
@Hiigh Voltage yes I mixed the henna overnight and mixed indigo powder 20 mins before application. It came out good. Since I had grey hair it came out orange but with multiple applications I'm hoping it will fix.
@@vaishalipotadar622 how is your hair now .. is it still orange? I dont want orange colour as my hair is dark dark brown . I applied so many henna and indigo and all turned out orange.. please reply which brand from henna souq to buy to get dark dark brown
@@sunusajeev8521 yes you are right. I have lot of grey hair and I used to color dye. But changing to henna and indigo initially felt good but the color goes off with every wash and hair looks orange. So I'm also considering whether to continue or switch back to hair color
@@vaishalipotadar622 thank you for your reply .appreciate it
What to do with leftover Indigo? Can. it be used as a Henna mix or should it be discarded?
You can definitely add it into your henna to make it less reddish.
Hello. You can place it in the fridge for 5-7 days. Please use it within 7 days of being made (if kept in the fridge). If you have any leftovers you can freezer for up to 6 months
Thank you for informative video. I didn't get the last part, once the indigo is ready, what should i do next?
1) mix it with henna powder?
2) mix it with henna paste (henna, amla and water)?
3) mix it with henna paste (henna, aloe vera powder, and water)?
or
4) after done with henna in hair (2 hours), then wash the hair, dry it and then apply this indigo paste into hair again?
Can you elaborate more about this part? I am interested in deep dark brown color or jet black!
Thank you 🌷
Sure. Welcome!
1. Once the indigo paste is ready you should have already let your henna paste sit 3-4 hours. Your henna paste has to be made first and then you prepare your indigo once the henna paste is almost ready.
2. Yes then once the indigo paste is ready mix it into the ready henna paste (the henna paste can contain amla powder, or hair oils and your liquid ie water etc...).
3. Yes you can do the same as #2 if you want to add aloe vera powder to indigo and to henna are both okay.
4. So #1-3 are the steps for a brown recipe range (from reddish brown to dark brown as then it now depends on how much of each henna and indigo used) so if you want to apply indigo alone without mixing it into the henna paste, so this is a two step process then you're hair will be black. Both henna and indigo must each be left in the hair 3-4 hours for best results.
A dark brown recipe would be 1 step and black would be 2 steps. I hope this helps.
HennaSooq thanks alot 🌷
I am preparing to do my first full hair colour with henna and indigo and I'm not sure whether to go dark brown or black. Hoping you can answer each of my questions so I can get this right! The information is sometimes overwhelming so I need short clear answers.
1) Can you please share the different ratios BETWEEN the henna to indigo to achieve approximate different shades from brown, to dark brown, to black please?
2)How much henna and indigo for short-med length?
3) When i have done a full head of colouring with henna and indigo, how long do I have to wait to touch up, and would I only be doing the roots?
4) Do I start on freshly washed hair/no conditioner?
5) Can I deep condition after henna but before doing the indigo colour, or would it be best to do a deep condition after completing both the henna and indigo?
6) What type of other treatments can I do on my hair and how often after colouring, for example if I want to use amla, brahmi or hibiscus etc (I have these in my stash).
7) I hear that lemon juice is a great liquid to help release the dye in henna. Should all the liquid then be lemon or can it be diluted? Does the lemon need to be warm to hot?
) Lastly, if oils can be added to the henna, how much? Does adding the oil affect or hinder the dye uptake on the hair?
Sorry for so many questions but hopefully, if you answer, it may also help other: i am grateful and thank you in advance...love from the UK
Excellent Video clip! Forgive me for butting in, I would love your opinion. Have you heard about - Dinanlinson Bright Colour Approach (search on google)? It is a great one off product for learning how to get your natural hair color back minus the hard work. Ive heard some amazing things about it and my mate after many years got cool results with it.
@@christine1962ful Hi, did you get any of your questions answered? I can answer some of them for you give you some help if you still need it?
my hair is light brown and i want it black. should i aply indigo alone after washing the hanna or should i mix them? plz answer
Hello. Please make sure to do indigo within 72 hours of henna application (right after or next day included). Indigo does not always work the first time and repeated application(s) may be necessary.
I used henna day one then used only indigo, on day 2 and I got black hair
Oh, 2 more question
1. can I mix ingigo and add straight to my hair and let it release in my hair? I do this with henna but not sure if this will be okay?
2. Indigo dies not last very long in my hair so I took advice and leave my hair conditioner and oil free after doing both henna and indigo treatments. Still indigo leaves fast. Can I do another indigo treatment the next day, in other words, 2 days in a row?
Hello.
1. Indigo you can't as alone it'll make your hair green.
2. Yes if you need to, do a touch up you can apply indigo again.
christine1962ful t
Indigo doesn't stain as long as henna, isn't that right? I read it's only about 2 weeks. I certainly find my hair gets redder over time suggesting that the indigo is fading.
Henna & Indigo can sometimes fade over time as does any type of dye (weather and elements cause this or heat over time) and it also grows out so it’ll eventually come out on its own fully over time. Henna hair dye & indigo lasts 4-6 weeks but depends on hair growth.
I use side powder instead of shampoo, does it prevent the hair to be stained with indigo? And what is the stain color of indigo on white hairs?
Hello, alone indigo can make your hair green. You need henna to make indigo work properly. What is side powder? If you use any herb to cleanse your hair in general it's fine but it's best if you use a clarifying herb like soapnut. We carry Soapnut Hair Wash and Soapnut Shampoo Bars
@@HennaSooq I mean sidr powder .. auto correction..
@@imanmansour15 Yes this is okay and won't create a barrier against using henna and/or indigo.
What’s the longest time I can wait to use indigo after using henna? I applied henna on Monday, is applying indigo today-Sunday- too long a wait ? Thanks for the video.
Max 3 days after henna. Welcome! How did it turn out?
@@HennaSooq You said 4-5 days in another comment.
What are the measurements for the henna and indigo to be mixed together? I’m looking for a brownish reddish tone, I also have gray hair, about 95% gray, I love henna been using it for about 2 years now,traditional hair color causes me headaches.
Hello! A nice reddish brown would be about 50/50 of each especially due to your higher concentration of grey hair. Add aloe vera powder for moisture. We have everything you'll need at www.hennasooq.com
My husband's hair is very white. I dyed his hair first with brown henna , his hair became orange, the I applied indigo
is less orange but still orange. What can I do?
Try increasing indigo ratio?
What is the ratio of henna to indigo powder to achieve a dark brown color
Dark brown is 3 parts indigo to 1 part henna.
Hello do you know of anyone in Surrey BC Canada that applies henna?
Thanks
No sorry dear!
I DO
I did henna and indigo at the same time butt the grey roots do not cover well. They are now very light brown with red tone.I had one wash already. Can I just do indigo to just covering the grey roots? If need to, I might need to do a few times of indigo to cover the grey roots, right? Your help is appreciated!
koala bear same here
Hello. Yes you can go over it with just indigo on those areas that didn't color well but make sure it's within a few days thereafter. Not a week or more.
I applied indigo and henna together, but indigo did not work. so better to apply separately, which is too much to do. Who has time to do all this shit? I tried them both, but I went back to old dying, which is easy for not healthy for skin as well as I have already lost my eye vision due to chemical dying. I wish if there was any easy and no side effect option available.
@@HennaSooq
The indigo powder you're using is greenish. Is this a specific type of indigo powder? The natural indigo powder I've seen sold is deep blue and I'd be nervous of using the incorrect sort of powder.
This is what the indigo plant looks like for hair dye. Deep blue powder is usually for body art.
hello can indigo be used to hair which were dyed with henna, but a month back. not immediately. please advise.
No this is too long ago. You need to use indigo when you've used henna either right after or within 3 days. If you use indigo much longer after that your hair might turn greenish toned.
@@HennaSooq ok thanks will do that way only.
@@vartikanarang4762 Welcome! let us know how it turns out :)
@@HennaSooq hi so i used henna and indigo in a one step process. i feel my hair very dry now post rinsing. when can i apply oil
i used henna and indigo mixed one step its work for some time but most of the time my hair give purple ?
abid mehmood oh purple! How odd. Maybe the henna didn't stick well to make sure to color your hair better.
Mix mehande and indigo
I have the same problem. Regardless of whether I do it in one step or two, after 2-3 days a purple tone appears in my hair. Why? How can I avoid this?
Hi after applying I washed my hair after half hour with warm water only
Okay great!
Does indigo cause itchy scalp? I used the Moroccan method indigo after applying their henna and my scalp is itchy a week after. I got very good results though but I'm worried about the itchiness.
Hello. Sometimes it can, if you're allergic to indigo. Did you patch test each herb to see if you are? You can do so by placing some mixed paste on your inner arm, leave it on for a few minutes and then see if it itches or leaves any red marks. OR it might be possible it didn't all wash out well. Do you use a Cleansing CoWash after to wash it out or ensure all of it is out? DO you have a lot of hair?
@@HennaSooq thanks for your reply. I washed it all out with water only on the day of application. Then after 72 hrs I washed with shampoo according to instructions on the leaflet that came with the indigo. I washed it thoroughly. I do not have a lot of hair. I didn't do a patch test. I will do next time. This way of colouring hair is my last resort as I'm allergic to chemical dyes. I have 99 per cent grey hair and I am hoping that I'm not allergic to any of the herbs. The results I got were perfect.
@@shelikays5120 Welcome! Nice, so glad they came out really great. Keep us posted :)
Can I use conditioner to wash the indigo out?
Yes you can do so.
Thanks 😃
can we use indigo power alone to get black hair ?
No you will get green hair. You are supposed to mix with henna
Yes like JuicyJuice said, you have to use it with henna.
I use two steps hair dying. Henna for 1.5h and indigo 1h. It covers greys perfectly but washes off in 2 weeks. After this time I can see some little grey dots or lines on the hair. Anyone got any tips on how to keep indigo longer on your hair??
Hello. When you wash the indigo out of your hair, try washing it out with just water and not shampoo. This may help it to stay in better.
After applying indigo.. how long should we keep them min and max ?
not sure but definitely shorter than henna. Half an hour to hour I would say
Hello you said do not use indigo alone or it can give you green hair, however if I have very dark brown hair with natural reddish undertones and no grey hair at all can I use indigo alone?
Hello! Unfortunately it can still give your hair a green hue. Do you want to make your hair a black tone? You would need henna first and indigo as the second step. Also indigo without henna to cling to doesn't really work well as well.
@@HennaSooq Hello, thank you for your answer! Yes I want my hair to be jet black, I don't want any brown tones or anything just REALLY black. Right now my hair is dark brown but when I am under the sunlight it has so much reddish tones I can't stand it! If I use henna before using indigo, if the indigo doesn't cling onto my hair will I have red hair?
@@amya.3174 the indigo needs the henna to cling better but definitely add indigo to your henna in the first step. This will create a darker base and then you can follow up with indigo as a second step for a true, dark black tone. Let me know how that turns out for you - Khadija
I bought 100% pure indigo powder. Mixed it with warm to hot water. It never turned blue. It remained green, no matter how long it sat out. Brand is “Origin” by Taha International Inc.
Oh sorry to hear. Hope you give ours a try.
Me too. But it is said in this video to have metallic coating with green shade
It never turn blue, always give green color but when you apply it to the hair and leave it for one HR then the color of the hair turn dark brown and if you keep it for more then one HR then the color will be darken to black
For covering grey hair can i mix henna and indigo to get black hair
Hello. Yes, we’d recommend for black tones you do a two step process with henna and indigo. Try these steps: hennasooq.com/blogs/frontpage/complete-guide-how-to-color-your-hair-with-henna-and-indigo/
Love the video. I’ve been using the dark brown henna. My hair comes out with tones of red/mostly areas I have grey. How can I prevent the reddish tones?
Indigo
Hello. You may have to add more indigo to your henna.
Kerala Naturals Indigo powder is the best one....
Is henna another type of powder?
Yes henna is another type of powdered plant leaves. Henna alone usually will dye the hair and skin a reddish tone. We recommend it be used with indigo for best results. Without henna, in the indigo process, the indigo could make your hair have a green hue. Everything is right here for color: www.hennasooq.com/hair-color/
just a quick question, ive been using the 2 step henna and indigo process for some time to get black hair, it looks really dark and vibrant but the color fades very quickly, i am having trouble getting it to stick to my hair in places, the underside of my hair (back of the neck and behind the head) have started to hold the darker color better, but the top of my head fades in a few washes, i use fresh henna and indigo each time and i add salt. my water temp is fine. I am so sad as i cannot use hair dye becuase i have developed a severe allergy to the ppd, and i really want to get long and luscious black hair again. is there anything else you could suggest that could help me in getting it to stick
I'd recommend you add some indigo to your first step to keep it sticking longer and better. Make sure to use a color-safe gentle shampoo and conditioner. Many clients rinse out their henna and indigo treatments with cool water so as to lock in the color (we heard it works for them).
Which henna and indigo have you been using from us?
@@HennaSooq when you say colour safe, are you suggesting shampoos made for coloured hair? Do they work with natural dye colours, since they were created for chemically dyed hair. Maybe a baby shampoo might work? Would love if you can feed back on this!
@@HennaSooq how much indigo percentage wise? I have the same issue!
U can mix bhrungaraj powder and amla powder... for details pls cal me
@@christine1962ful well, I heard we aren’t to shampoo the hair right after for a few days because it will immediately take the color out. It must settle in first than just rinse with cool or cold water after applying the application. I personally prefer the one step, pinch of salt and vinegar. I also put in coconut oil and if feeling it coconut milk. My hair is beautifully black after having all that fun preparing the outcome. In addition, I wrap it for 2.5 hours so it will not dry on me. If it dries that’s it! It stops working.
Okay so what if I actually want to dye my hair with indigo to make it blue or bluish green?
I feel like you could use just indigo to make it blue black
You can do so. Up to you :)
If i want to use indigo to dye my hair blue should I add anything to the power other then the water and salt?
That should be good. I think though some peope have added cassia so that way the indigo doesn't go so green.
👋CAN ANYBODY CAN GIVE ME ADVICE? 👇
can you use aloe vera gel in the indigo mix????
If you dont have Vera powder??
No sorry it won't work that well. Please use aloe vera powder for best results: hennasooq.com/products/organic-aloe-vera-powder
@@HennaSooqdo you still need salt. thanks in advance🙏
Hello how long do I have to live in indigo in my hair please let me know if you have a time thank you have a nice day
Indigo should be left in the hair 3-4 hours or 1.5-2 hours with a heat cap.
HennaSooq hi dear
I used indigo
It’s not black I can tell by the colour its blue
Plz can you tell me what to do how to make it
Thank you 🙏🏻
How long do you leave the Indigo on ?
Hello. Wrap your hair and allow to dye your hair for 3-4 hours.
Can we use just indigo for the lengths ?
You can but there must be henna on there first. Indigo alone without henna in the process will always make your hair green toned.
Very nice video 👍🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
Is the henna safe to use on color treated hair.
I also have colour treated hair. I think we need to use just henna before using indigo on our hair. So doing a two step process.
Hello. Yes, with our products, it is safe to do so.
Love your products for years! Question; I've often read that you should use cool water with indigo (as opposed to warm for the henna), and it should be used immediately within 10 minutes?
Thank you! For our indigo we definitely don't recommend cool water. Warm liquids trigger dye release and we've found that warm to hot always works really well with our indigo. Please try to allow at least 20-30 minutes for dye release.
Well shoot, I've been using cold water every time! I will try warm now!

Thank u mem
How many times you have to use henna and indigo my hair is very white

Hi, my indigo gets crumbly and it's hard to spread around. Am I doing something wrong?
Hello. Did you apply warm to hot water. You can water gradually until your mixture become the consistency of a pancake batter.
Hi dear how are u? I never use indigo powder befor so i wann try it know but its permanently cover my gray hair uses onetime only plss tele me?
Hello. Henna hair dye lasts 4-6 weeks but depends on hair growth. People choose henna hair dye as they do not want to use chemicals so this is a true natural alternative. We hope this helps you make your decision on what would work best for you. Good luck!
Hello ! Is it necessary to apply indigo the same day we applied henna on hair ? or can we apply henna today and use indigo on hair next day on wet hair ?
Hello! You can apply indigo if it's been anywhere from immediately to up to 3 days after your henna application. Not longer. Because there will be new growth. It can be applied onto damp or dry hair, as desired.
how mam plz give me any link for buy

My hairfall is terrible after using henna indigo
How long do we have to keep indigo in our hair?
Hello. Wrap your hair and allow to dye your hair for 3-4 hours.
What if I already have dark brown hair and want a blueish black color?
Hi! Sorry for my delayed reply. Yes you can go blueish black toned. It just takes many applications and patience. A two step process along with indigo in both steps helps but it can go blue black with consistency and many applications to build up the color.
Can you use Amla or Cassia instead of Henna?
No you can't as indigo needs henna as it's base to stick properly to the hair strands (because it's permanent and the other herbs are not).
