I love the red raj henna mixed with the indigo for get a nice dark brown color in my hair (my hair is already dark, but it spices it up) It creates a nice warm tone to the color. So far, I haven't experienced any allergy issues with the indigo either.
Your Indigo is the best on the market. I have lots of grays and after using Twenty Century woman's henna mix, perfection. Every gray jet black, covered to the tea, not one in sight. I used deep conditioner after, I ran out of your orange cowash.

I luv indigo for keeping my black hair black. But I have white hair that I would like to keep white. Can I miss neutral henna with indigo instead of henna, to maintain the salt and pepper look?
Can I use just indigo to modify the coppery color I got from not mixing henna and indigo perfectly? I was aiming for a soft brown, but the parts of my hair that were almost translucent turned copper.
Hi, Khadidja! Great video! I would like to know, how long should I wait to deep condition my hair using Ayurvedic powders or glosses after dying it with indigo?
My only problem is the jet black color I get from 2 step process does not resist the hair wash I keep it for a week before shampoo and then it fades out to red tone...... I have been switching to different shampoos so that I can get mild herbal shampoo that suits my indigo hair..... But still I haven't found it yet. Could you please suggest.
Aisha, if I may make a suggestion - you should list your steps so she can troubleshoot; for instance - are you applying the color to dry hair that hasn’t been washed in a few days, freshly washed hair that was dry before dyeing; hair that you washed a day before or freshly washed wet hair? Did you apply any oil to your hair or hairline? How much henna did you use, and how long did you let it develop? Did you use cold, warm, hot or boiling water to mix henna or indigo? How much indigo did you use and how long did you let it develop? How long did you leave henna on your hair? How long you leave indigo on your hair? Did you cover your hair tightly? How long after rinsing the henna out of your hair, did you apply the indigo?
@@kimariokiji Okay, so Day 1 - I shampoo my hair and soak henna for overnight, Day 2 - I apply 1:1 henna (soaked overnight) + indigo (mix with hot water and let it sit for 15-20 mins and then combine with henna, soaked), I wear shower cap, keep the pack for 3-4 hours and rinse with normal water no shampoo, Day 3 - I apply indigo ( mix with hot water and let it sit for 15-20 mins and apply all over my hair), cover it with shower cap, keep it for again 3-4 hours and rinse with normal water no shampoo..... I do not do anything else with my hair for next 5 days after that I do oiling and shampoo my hair next day and then here comes the maroon red tone on my hair. Thanks in advance!
@@aishamalik6974 I don't think you received an answer but I just watched this video today and discovered that I should only co-wash after henna and no deep conditioning or heavy oils for about 1 week so that the color can set. I just learned by watching this video that I was making my color bleed by using heavy oils after henna! Perhaps rewatch this and follow her steps carefully, you might get better results. That's what I plan on doing.
Hi there😍 Do you still advice to use 50% henna and 50% indigo for the 1st step and 100% indigo for the second step if you want blue black hair? Thanks for all your advice!
Mine never seems to last 4-6 weeks. I often have to do something every 2-3 weeks. I know my hair doesn't grow *that* fast ... I often feel like I'm doing something wrong. Grrrr ... ETA: I use Suave conditioner to wash/rinse my hair after a treatment. Is that gentle enough, or does it strip color?

I've ordered a colourless henna - it's meant to be used as a conditioner. I've also ordered indigo. I have blonde hair. I cover my hair so no one will see it anyway, but would this give a blue green colour? It's my colours so I'm hoping it does :)
Rosemary and Peppermint would be great additions however some people prefer sandalwood and lavender but it depends on your preference - some are better for certain hair types than others

Hello, Can I re apply the indigo if it didn’t take ? I applied the indigo this morning , left it on for about 2 hours. I still have orange around my hair line.
It won't really turn burgundy because black is so dark, but the more you apply henna, the more red it will get, and it will look beautiful in the sunlight 😊
you can do either but ideally clean, damp hair after washing with one of our shampoos: hennasooq.com/collections/natural-shampoo , like Soapnut Hair Wash as it opens the hair to receive the color better.
@HennaSooq ok thank you. I placed an order the other day, so I'll have to wait to order the shampoo bc I don't want to have to pay shipping again. Thanks again 🙂
thank you so much for your Video🥰 actually I have Chestnutbrown hair and I just want to have a mini dizzle of red light on my light brwon tone. What would you recommend ? Henna or Indigo? Well I dont want habe red hair, just a red shining. So I think it would be better to leave it just a short time…but how long? 45 Minutes? 1 hour. What is your opinion please❤️
Very helpful thanks! Trying to achieve light/medium brown hair, so did 2:1 henna and indigo. Have roots of 50/50 greys, and the greys are now orange. You mentioned to use indigo, but will this not turn it black? Not sure next steps as the rest of my hair is fine, a bit orange but not bright orange. Do I do henna and indigo 1:1? Colored it this morning, can I do the roots tomorrow again? Also how can I use amla? Add to henna mix or indigo mix when I do the color? Thank you🙏
I have extremely stubborn greys. I have to do 2 step process with henna by itself. And then my desired mix of indigo and henna for medium brown. Clarify hair first and make sure hair is damp when applying.
I have a few hreys in front of my head that stain red after henna. But the greys come back after a couple of weeks. My hair is in crochet braids for 1 month. Do please can you let me know how to keep the red. Thanks.
Have a question not sure if this has been asked if I use the indigo and Alo vera powder will I still need henna if my natural hair color is already off black dark brown color or you still need Henna then indigo with aloe Vera powder
If you let the indigo sit longer before applying it over the henna dyed hair will it make the black a more blue black? Wanting a more blue black color...
I absolutely love all the products that I have ordered from Henna Sooq💝 it ok to apply a rinse out conditioner after you rinse out the henna/indigo dye application or do you recommend doing only a co-wash? TIA
Yes, indigo can be used for body art, particularly in the form of natural henna tattoos or body painting. Indigo is often mixed with henna to create various shades of blue and green, and it's commonly used in traditional and cultural body art practices. However, it's essential to ensure that you're using high-quality, safe indigo specifically intended for body art, as some industrial or synthetic forms may contain additives that could be harmful to the skin. Always perform a patch test before applying any new substance to a large area of skin to check for any adverse reactions.
Indigo does different things to different types and color of hair. I suggest collecting your loose hair from you brush/comb (and maybe even your shower drain). Then experiment with that hair and the indigo. On my dark brown hair, it takes all the reddish highlights out and darkens/dulls it On my grey (almost white) hair, it starts off blue/green for about 24-48 hours, then turns purple. I've read that with some people it stays green.
So first mix henna let sit 2-4 hours.. then separately mix indigo about 20 min before readyto use.. then mix the two together?? You didn't actually say about mixing the two ..I'm guessing it just has to be well mixed. I used to add cinnamon for added fragrance and ruby color. Have you ever tried that?
Hi, so my hair is naturally REALLY dark brown, almost black, I want that blue-deep black colour. I used Indigo once but my hair got green and the dye didnt lasted long on my hair, maybe one day, I didnt even washed it or anything. Do I need to do the henna-indigo 2 step process or do I not, because as I said, my hair is really dark already. Do you have any advices for me? I think my hair got green the first time because it was not warm enough. I hope you can answer my question.
Hello. Color results can vary depending on your natural hair color or on how much grey hair you have. The lighter the hair and the more greys you have, will pull the most red (sometimes even an orange). Therefore sometimes, repeated applications are necessary to get better color.
I love my Red Raj henna color, the more I use it the deeper it gets but my edges are turning really white now. I would like to darken my edges as opposed to the rest of my hair. I wouldn't need a full 100 grams of indigo, but enough for the front 1 inch of my hair. I would like to make that a darker brown so that my edges don't blend into my skin-tone. I need to figure this out!
Hello. No sorry that won’t work to color the hair. When you make the henna and indigo in a two step for black tones it’ll rinse out very easily . Just make your paste a bit thinner.
I saw your video. I was wondering with the hues I've seen comments that you can get a purple out of the indigo powder. How would you recommend mixing for that?
Hello. The closest to a kind of aubergine purple type tone would be our Organic Rajasthani indian henna but it’s more auburn then purple. Purple a true purple is usually created with chemical dyes.
Khadija - I've been using Henna Sooq products for about 5 years now. Why does my indigo wash out when I rinse my hair with cold water 2-3 days after application? I need to wet my hair in order to style it and I always end up with blue indigo washing down the drain and henna only left on my grays.
I have been dying my hair with box dye for years but I want to transition to natural dyes because my hair is quite long now and I struggle with chronic pain so it's just become a hassle. I have black hair currently but my natural hair is brown. I want to keep my hair black but I've heard that people with alot of box dye shouldnt use it or they might get weird results? What would you suggest? I want to keep growing my hair and keep it healthy! Thank you!
Question: I recently ordered your Indigo. This will be my first time using Indigo ever. If I want to achieve black tones which of your henna powders should I use?
I never heard of this before but I want a hint of blue so can I just use the indigo without the henna? I have colored hair from box hair color and currently it’s colored blue

Hello. It may inhibit the indigo from working. Indigo is very fussy and mixed with water only.
Can we use indigo powder to our hands too?
what about indigo powder 80grams, and amla powder 20 grams for a 4ash color? would it work?
amla can't be added to indigo. It's too acidic and indigo probably won't work. Amla can be added to the henna part. Only aloe can be added to indigo.
I keep reading from other sources you should apply indigo immediately after mixing because it has such a short time for dye release. Is this true?
Hello! Yes, the dye release is for 15-20 mins only and you should apply it immediately.

👋CAN ANYBODY CAN GIVE ME ADVICE? 👇
can you use aloe vera gel in the indigo mix????
If you dont have Vera powder??
Can you use red henna, indigo and fenugreek together ?
Hello. Yes, you may do so.
Can I use henna and Indigo to go black if my natural hair is light blonde?
Hello. Color results can vary depending on your natural hair color or on how much grey hair you have. The lighter the hair and the more greys you have, will pull the most red (sometimes even an orange). Therefore sometimes, repeated applications are necessary to get better color.
I love my Red Raj henna color, the more I use it the deeper it gets but my edges are turning really white now. I would like to darken my edges as opposed to the rest of my hair. I wouldn't need a full 100 grams of indigo, but enough for the front 1 inch of my hair. I would like to make that a darker brown so that my edges don't blend into my skin-tone. I need to figure this out!
Me too!
I would love to see your henna hair color 😍
Ha ha ha... Fatwa BEWARE
Hello, when I use Indigo it gives me very bad headache, if I want brown color to cover my grey hair, is there any other option to mix with henna?
Sam here .. i get severe headache. R u still using it ? Have ur hair turned in the right colour?
can i make indigo tea and spray it on my hair ? will it work that way?
Hello. No sorry that won’t work to color the hair. When you make the henna and indigo in a two step for black tones it’ll rinse out very easily . Just make your paste a bit thinner.
Do I apply indigo powder on wet or dry hair?
Can you mix the henna and indigo or do you have to use them one at a time?
Yes, you can mix them. Please visit hennasooq.com/blog/complete-guide-how-to-color-your-hair-with-henna-and-indigo/ for more information.
I saw your video. I was wondering with the hues I've seen comments that you can get a purple out of the indigo powder. How would you recommend mixing for that?
Hello. The closest to a kind of aubergine purple type tone would be our Organic Rajasthani indian henna but it’s more auburn then purple. Purple a true purple is usually created with chemical dyes.
Khadija - I've been using Henna Sooq products for about 5 years now. Why does my indigo wash out when I rinse my hair with cold water 2-3 days after application? I need to wet my hair in order to style it and I always end up with blue indigo washing down the drain and henna only left on my grays.
In the video, she said to wait 5 to 7 days for the dye to settle. I would suggest lightly using a cream leave in conditioner until then.
Shall I use heena and indigo together in one mixture please tell
You want to mix them in separate bowls, mixing them together can make it not work.
I have been dying my hair with box dye for years but I want to transition to natural dyes because my hair is quite long now and I struggle with chronic pain so it's just become a hassle. I have black hair currently but my natural hair is brown. I want to keep my hair black but I've heard that people with alot of box dye shouldnt use it or they might get weird results? What would you suggest? I want to keep growing my hair and keep it healthy! Thank you!
How to use heat cap
Question: I recently ordered your Indigo. This will be my first time using Indigo ever. If I want to achieve black tones which of your henna powders should I use?
Red raj
What is heat cap
I am glad for this video.
I never heard of this before but I want a hint of blue so can I just use the indigo without the henna? I have colored hair from box hair color and currently it’s colored blue
Indigo does different things to different types and color of hair.
I suggest collecting your loose hair from you brush/comb (and maybe even your shower drain). Then experiment with that hair and the indigo.
On my dark brown hair, it takes all the reddish highlights out and darkens/dulls it On my grey (almost white) hair, it starts off blue/green for about 24-48 hours, then turns purple.
I've read that with some people it stays green.
Hello. Using Indigo alone will turn your hair green.
Can I achieve a blue-black shade with indigo?
Edit: it seems I should try it without henna for blue black. Got it. I’ll have to wait until this henna wares off.
I thought it would turn green when you use it on its own
You need to use henna first then the indigo 😀
Use thw henna first

Hello. Bluish with indigo will be only bluish black not quite blue toned.
Can I use gel on my hair right after my henna, indigo treatment?
gel usually has alcohol
Can I use alovera gel?
Hello. Unfortunately not as the aloe Vera gel form doesn’t work well for coloring. The indigo is very fussy and ideally aloe vera powder helps it perform best
Hi,How to keep on hair?
The color? Does what you’re using fade? It usually lasts 4-6 weeks unless there’s very stubborn grey and hair
The indigo mixer I prepared doesn't turn into metal green or purplish black before application. I allowed it to rest for 40 mins. Can you help me here?
Hello! it won’t make it purple only greenish if you use Indigo alone. The dye release for Indigo alone is 15-20 mins. 40 mins is too long
Can we use raw aloe vera instead of the aloe vera powder?
Hello. You can use aloe vera juice instead.
my hair looks purple . How can fix that I like black or dark brown

هل الانديجو بالهندي نفسه كتم بالعربي؟؟
Sorry I don't understand.
@@HennaSooq
I thought you understand arabic
So i will translate.. there somthing we put on hair after henna called in arabic katam and I just asked you is that katam same as indigo ??
Katam is ::
When put henna and wash it .. must next day put katam so its will make the orange color of henna to black color or brown .. and we use it because it was mentioned in the Sunnah
Sorry for my bad english
I try my best
@@rawa2ya hello! No sorry I don't speak arabic. Only english and french. Katam is something I'm familiar with. We used to carry it at Henna Sooq but then the war happened. Your english was perfect. Indigo is very similar to katam.
@@HennaSooq
So they not the same ??
I can't use katam as indigo ?? Use the way you explained about indigo .. but instead use katam ??
@@rawa2ya Yes you can use indigo the same way katam is typically used. But they are NOT the same herb/plant.
Can I mix the indigo with coffee or black tea? I’m so nervous cuz I have locs idk how well this is gonna work.
I feel like black tea made it a bit darker but I think it doesn't make a huge difference
I have black hair naturally but I want a blue black tone to my hair. Is using indigo powder alone ok or will it make my hair green? Thank you ❤️
