Natural Plant-Based Indigo Hair Dye 150 g

What makes the Indigo shade special?

Indigo is a natural plant pigment responsible for cool, dark shades in plant-based coloring. Unlike classic henna, it does not add red or copper highlights.

It is most often used:

• to deepen brown shades

• to achieve natural black

• to neutralize warm, ginger tones after henna

In many cases, indigo is used in two-step coloring: first with henna, then with indigo, to achieve a deep, natural hair color.

Color results on different base hair colors

On light or gray hair, indigo may require prior coloring with henna so that the pigment bonds well with the hair.

On brown hair, it lets you achieve a cooler, deeper shade.

On hair previously colored with henna, it helps achieve darker shades, all the way to natural black.

The final result depends on your natural hair color and any previous coloring.

How does indigo coloring work?

The plant pigment indigo binds to the hair's keratin and forms a natural layer of color. Unlike chemical dyes, it does not damage the hair structure or lighten its natural pigment.

As a result, your hair may become:

• stronger

• shinier

• thicker-looking

The color settles within 24–48 hours after coloring.

Who is indigo for?

Indigo is recommended for people who:

• want to achieve dark brown or natural black

• want to darken their color after henna

• want to reduce warm, reddish highlights

• are looking for a natural alternative to dark chemical dyes

To use Sattva Natural Herbal Hair Dye, first wash your hair with a silicone-free shampoo to thoroughly cleanse and remove any product residue. Then prepare a paste by mixing the appropriate amount of powder with water at about 50°C until you get a smooth consistency. Wear protective gloves to avoid staining your hands.

Divide your hair into four sections and apply the paste evenly from root to tip in each section. Wrap your head in plastic wrap and cover it with a towel to help retain heat and increase the effectiveness of the henna. Leave the dye on your hair for 2-3 hours.

After this time, rinse the henna with warm water without using shampoo. Remember that the color will develop for another 48 hours - do not shampoo your hair during this time. For best results, it is recommended to do an allergy test on a small area of ​​skin before fully applying the product.

If you are a brunette and want to cover grey hair, it is worth considering a two-step henna treatment for an optimal herbal colouring effect.
