Ingredients:
Lawsonia Inermis, Indigofera Tinctoria, Emblica Officinalis Garten, Eclipta Alba, Azadirachta Indica.
Our Vision:
Our henna hair dyes were created & started with a vision to help people with sensitive skin & scalp, as most of the hair dyes found in major retail stores contain harsh chemicals that can cause lasting damage if used long term. PPDs, ammonia & SLS are a few to mention, these substances are no friend to anyone & could send you to ER if you are not aware of your allergies. With that being said, these compounds are not only harmful to people with sensitive skin, when absorbed in, but they are also one of the major reasons that cause skin diseases and breast cancer in women. We feel like we are contributing to a cause by developing, promoting natural products & spreading awareness of harms that are caused by chemicals.
Our Promise:
We source the finest quality ingredients from ethical producers around the world. We understand the need for hair & skincare that keeps its promises and constantly in search of excellent natural ingredients to enhance natural beauty. Our product line is developed using the finest natural ingredients.
Your Satisfaction:
Switching to natural beauty products has been the latest trend these days and for obvious reasons, with so many skin diseases and cancer-causing ingredients that are being used relentlessly are a no joke to your health. All your purchases are covered by the money-back satisfaction guarantee. If you are not happy, we won't be either!

Thank you for this video tutorial
Thanks for the video. My henna didn’t turn red as much over night but I did mix it with coffee. The directions you sent me explain everything everyone is asking in the comments. Everyone needs to just slow down and read the directions. Currently waiting with henna on my head. Next up will be the indigo powder.
You are so welcome!
@@TheHennaGuyshi I have bleached hair right now, and I’d like to achieve a healthy brown. Should I dye my hair brown prior to applying henna
Thank you
You're welcome! -Hilary
Hello Henna Guys! I started using these products in March 2019, I love it. I’m 54 and have lots of gray hair and want to cover roots. I started using pure henna and turned really orange, not red. Then tried the medium brown but didn’t lasted long. So, I just bought the Dark Brown packet and reading all comments here found out the correct procedure since I was confused too! So, I have mid-back hair length and my question is if I have to make the whole packet of each and apply it to all my hair or just the roots? I mean I definitely want to have an even color on all my hair length. Thanks for your reply!
Hi Judith! We are so glad to experience this journey for healthier hair!! If you are applying to only your roots, you will not need the whole pack each time. 1/4 of pack (again depending on how much gray you have) will get you the coverage:)
Big ups to DMX playing in the back ground❤️. Great video!
That happened during the voice over recording, hahaha! Thank you for liking the video -Hilary
glad i came here bc as a beginner the instructions were confusing! lol. I think most of my questions were answered. I don't think the instructions say this is a two-step process, so I needed confirmation from the comments.
We are very sorry for any confusion that the instructions may have caused. We are currently updating the instructions to be a little bit more clarifying. -Hilary
Yes. I only used one packet. The pure henna. I was so confused and I felt that I just wasted my money because I did not get the result That I want. I thought it’s an either one not a two step process. When do you apply the dark brown henna? When you hair is dry? Like the ff day? That would help so much so we can fit this in our schedule.
Is coffee recommended for different colours as well? I dyed my beard a wine red colour with henna and it looks awesome but I only used hot water.
We recommend using coffee to help deepen the color naturally and to help tone done some of the more red shades. You can use water, coffee or brewed tea- Hilary
What's with all the mean comments? Yall need to get a life.
Thank you Bianca:)
I just purchased henna medium brown dye. Is it okay to use black tea instead of black coffee? Will it turn a medium brown?
Sorry for the delay in response here! Yes, you may use tea, black coffee is to help dark color tone:)
Can i add the dark brown mixture to the henna mixture and apply all at once?
You may do that but we highly recommend applying it the 2-step for better results!:)
HI to darken gray hair do I apply both? First Indigo THEN dark brown? And how long does it last after initial application? Thanks.
You would apply the pure henna first and then the dark brown after the henna has been rinsed from your hair. -Hilary
Why do some colors like the dark brown henna color come in a 2 step process (the henna and then color) whereas the medium brown color only comes with 1 step process (the color)?
Hi Alejandra! Indigo powder is hard to get coverage especially on stubborn grey hair. Our dark brown and jet black has the most indigo powder in them. That is why those are recommended to apply it with the 2- step method. Hope this helps. If you have any more questions please feel free to contact us via sales@thehennaguys.com and one of our specialist will help better assist you:)
Can I apply the 2nd step (in my case indigo powder) on wet hair?
That is what I would like to know too.
Damp will do, not just dripping wet
Thank you. Bought the dark brown and was confused as to why there was two bags: pure henna and second unlabeled packet.
Not a problem at all! We do have an updated video that was posted a few days ago.
Somehow I mixed up the packets and did step 2, without step one. I had done a different shade of henna a week ago. Is this okay? It's still not the shade I was going for, can I just apply step 2 again for longer?
You may need to start over and apply the pure henna first and then follow up with the dark brown. -Hilary
Can you do one for the jet black?
We do have a video for Jet Black as well:)

Is it work only gray hair?i dont like to change my black natural hair,but i have 17 Gray hair i need to cover its,so when i will use this it could change my black color hair also,because this package mention that its not wrk in black hair its wrk only grey hair(white hair)
Yes this will cover the grey:) Henna can not lighten your already dark color hair .
So was I supposed to buy the plain henna with it?
Hi Monie, our medium brown henna comes premixed. You will not need to purchase pure henna separately. If you have anymore questions please feel free to contact us via sales@thehennaguys.com and one of our specialist will help assist you:)
When do you apply the dark brown henna plz somebody freakin tell me omg
I think you put it on after you wash out the pure henna.
Sorry for the confusion Jada! You would need to apply pure henna first, leave on for 3 hours, rinse, and then apply dark brown.
@@TheHennaGuys on wet hair?
@@TheHennaGuys is it nesecary to use the both steps ..l have just thr brown henna for now ..can l use that ..does it work on colour? I have natural dark brown hair .
Omg I mixed both together.... already on my hair
Thank you for sharing i want change black hair so how can i mixed the hena guys please help me.
Is your hair color currently black? Henna can't lighten hair, so you would need to either let the color grow out or try to remove it naturally. -Hilary
Before yes my hair is black 10month ago i used golden color for my hair know is my hair half of golden i want black thank you so much
How long will the dye last before I have to reapply to my beard?
That really depends on how fast your beard grows. Since henna is a permanent dye, it won't fade quickly. -Hilary
Don't think this question was answered...
Can u leave the 1st one out longer than the recommended 8-10 hours or does is have to be precise?
If I went over it would only be about 2 more hours
Hi Adan, You be fine leaving it out 2 hours more of pure henna. I would be concerned on dark brown. That does only require 30 mins. Hope this helps.
Anyone out there who has the purple problem figure out yet how to keep the brown henna dye from getting the purplish hue to it?
I've tried all the company recommendations...no alcohol don't wash it/wash it, different lengths of time etc. and I have tried a lot of different peoples recommendations like mixing coffee in it etc. So far none of them work...it still ends up turning purple. Thanks.
Hi MacAggy, have you tired using it as a 2-step method? Also what color are you looking to dye your hair? Please feel free to email us at sales@thehennaguys.com and one of our specialists will help better assist you.
Sorry i didnt complete the message. I doesent say on the instrucciones how much to mix of the second powder. Thanks i need help
It would really depend on how long your hair is. You would use the same amount for both the pure henna and then the dark brown powder.
I still have a lot of red tones in my hair. How do I get rid of them?
That can be toned down with using black coffee as the liquid. You may also need another application. -Hilary
I just want dark brown. I don't understand what the henna packet for
When dark brown its a bit tricky to get your greys covered. Since dark brown contains Indigo powder, pure henna acts as a base to help Indigo powder work its best:) For more information please contact us via email sales@thehennaguys.com
The Henna Guys ok so you have to do the pure henna 1st? Apply it for 30 mins a wash off then use the brown henna and apply that for 2/3 hours?
@@Elizabeth-fn9fd I’m dyeing my beard and I’m trying to figure that part out as we speak lol
@@RegentofArrako Mix the henna, let it sit in bowl covered for 8-10 hours., Use a clarifying shampoo (with sulphates) to remove the oils from your hair/beard. Apply the henna for 2-3 hours. Wash out with water only. Mix the indigo, let it sit in bowl for 30 minutes covered (you could actually do this whilst you still had the henna developing in your hair if you want to be a productivity guru) and then apply for 2-3 hours. Wash out with water. The henna will have dyed your greys a red colour. The indigo will then stick to the henna-d hair better than if you hadn't done the henna or if you'd put the henna&indigo on together in a one step process. Don't shampoo your hair for at least 24 hours to allow the colour to develop. 36 hours is best, 48 is too long.
@@hashimmohamed6415 THANK YOU!!!!
I am new to henna hair coloring. Where I can buy dark brown henna? Thanks
Hi Parul! Here is the link to purchase. Please let us know if you have any questions:) You can email us at sales@thehennaguys.com
www.thehennaguys.com/products/dark-brown-henna?_pos=2&_sid=8fe114a0b&_ss=r
Also what happens if I
Leave the dark henna out but not the pure henna will it make my hair darker
Do you mean only using the pure henna and not the dark brown powder? -Hilary
So if I leave the dark brown henna mixture out to sit but not the pure henna what happens
I'm a little confused. Do you apply BOTH of these mixtures to your hair to achieve the dark brown color? First the Pure henna (let sit, then rinse until water runs clear) and THEN the dark brown mixture (let sit, then rinse until water runs clear) after you have let the pure hena sit and be rinsed out?
Yes, you will need to let sit pure henna, apply, leave on for 3 hours, rinse, and then apply the dark brown mixture. Hope this helps:)
Omg this is such a lengthy process I definitely did not realize how time consuming it was before purchasing it
@@TheHennaGuys very helpful! Follow up question: is it okay for the pure henna to be left out for longer than 10 hours before being applied? I’ve set aside free time but am curious if it would be okay to leave out over night and be applied the next day (e.i., longer than the recommended 8-10 hours)
Everyone is confused. NO ONE on ANY henna video I’ve seen yet explains which comes first and what do you do to apply both
What are the measurements?
Hey Thanks si much for your information but I noticed you do put apple vinegar? Why
It can help develop the color and help with gray coverage.
Does this stain skin? I want to dye my beard and I'm wondering
Yes it does but you should apply Vaseline around your creases to help with that.
Can you use instant coffee??
Hi Angelica, yes, instant coffee will work as well as black tea. :)
What about for my beard? Same steps?
Yes, the steps would be similar. Except for facial hair, you only need to leave on for a maximum of 2 hours. -Hilary
Wait...so you use one OR the other? Or you have to mix them together...send help!
It is recommended to apply our dark brown as a 2-step method. Applying the pure henna first and then dark brown. Hope this helps, if you need further assistance please feel free to contact us via sales@thehennaguys.com and one of our specialist will better assist you.
I mix it together it cant be working?
Its recommended applying the 2-step method for darker results:)
So you apply the pure henna 2/3 hours, rinse it off, THEN apply the dark brown henna for 2/3 hours also? OR you apply the pure Helena and ON TOP of that you apply the dark brown henna?
Hello, You would rinse the pure henna out first, then apply the dark brown henna.
You said apply the dark brown after you rinse out the henna. But when wet or dry?
@@TheHennaGuys on wet or dry hair?
@@lilybaytoday dry hair
The instructions on packet for the dark brown packet are not thorough. Do you apply the second step, the dark brown henna, on dry or wet hair? Also, since it takes 8 hours for the pure henna, the first step, to set/sit for 8 hours... can this rest for 24 hours before application. It is 1 o'clock in the afternoon and I want to use now but the first step (the henna powder) has to process for eight hours? Then I apply it to clean dry hair for 3 hours. The second step for another 3 hours. I am planning to do henna from here on out so just want to know if I can do this by mixing the first step a day in advance. I am confused and I hope I don't sound too confusing:)
Hi lily, sorry for the delay in response. We hope you had help via thru our email. Please do contact us via sales@thehennaguys.com or phone 309-222-2492
Do you wash and condition your hair in between step 1 and step 2? I'm asking because the henna guys directions are confusing they say Be certain your hair is clean and dry prior to the application of the Dark Brown Powder so damn confusing.
Paula, sorry this took so long to respond back. You would just rinse with cool water. You can use conditioner after both henna and the dark brown, but you will want to avoid using any shampoo for at least 48 hours post-henna/dark brown application. -Hilary
I think second powder is indigo leaf powder
Hello! The second powder is a combination of indigo powder, pure henna, amla, neem & bhringraj. -Hilary
Black tea or coffe mix??
Whatever you have at home! Anything dark helps enhance the color:)
Hello how long after using chemical dye can I use this on my hair also if it doesn’t have a grade the first time do I just re-applyIndigo or both steps second time?
Hello! May I ask what color the chemical dye is that you used? Since this is such a specific question could you send us an email at sales@thehennaguys.com It would also be super helpful if you included some current pictures of your hair (if you're comfortable) in order to best access the situation. Thank you for reaching out!
Is this cold coffee?
We ask you don't use hot coffee, warm to cold will be fine
Hi where can I find that henna I'm from in South african
You can find the henna on our website. We do also ship internationally. www.thehennaguys.com/products/jet-black-henna?_pos=2&_sid=a83c960e0&_ss=r -Hilary
Can we use this rebonded hair
Yes you may but we would still recommend just waiting 4 weeks before application :)
Is this safe to use I have allergies to dye.
That is a pure herb it is not a chimical dye where I come from we use it on little girls hair all the time
So sorry for the late response! This is a natural hair dye from plants. We always recommend doing a patch test to make sure you are not allergic to the plant itself.:)
Did you ever try
Which type of henna do you used?
The dark brown is mixed of pure henna , indigo powder, and other herbs.
Is t natural? How did u make? Mam
It is natural plant based hair dye. You will simply need to mix with water:)
Are you kidding?! Henna scent is the best i can smell it all day everyday
For some the smell is not as pleasant :) A bit too strong and adding any EO helps:)
Can it b instant?👀
Nicolette Heaven- you may use that if thats what you have or even just water:)
Thank You team:)
Can you not mix both together ?
We don't recommend mixing them together, just because we want you to have the best results. We recommend doing the application of henna first, because it's the foundation. You need the foundation laid down first before anything can be built on it. -Hilary
Thanks for the video the instructions it came with are very frustrating
You're so welcome! Please feel free to reach out to us if you have any questions about the application process. -Hilary
Coffee bad idea! Made my hair smell like an ashtray for wks!
We're sorry to hear that you had some issues with odor. How did you prepare the dye? -Hilary
Hi this is going to be my first time using it.it Dosent say h
Sorry, we just saw this. What was your question? -Hilary
Not helpful at all !
Oh no! How can we help? What are you looking for?
For the one step process do we apply straight away or let it sit?
You need to mix and let it complete the full 8-10 hour dye release process before applying. So the best way, is to mix the night before you plan on applying the pure henna. -Hilary
