HerbtoniQ Henna, Katha & Indigo Powder Natural Hair Colour Trial Pack – 120 g (3 × 40 g)

Henna and indigo powder, with a pouch of katha to sit between them, is everything you need to try plant-based hair colour for the first time. Mehndi lays down the warm base, kattha nudges it towards brown, and neel takes it on to dark brown or black – and at 40 g each, you can test the result on your own hair without a big commitment.

Key Benefits

• Henna gives natural reddish-brown colour and a conditioned feel.
• Katha helps deepen henna to a richer brown tone.
• Indigo over henna gives natural dark brown to black shades.
• Adds natural shine and body to dull-looking hair.
• Small pouches are ideal for strand tests and root touch-ups.

What’s Inside

3 pouches × 40 g, 120 g in total:

• 1 × Henna (Mehndi) Powder, 40 g – Lawsonia inermis leaf, the traditional base for natural hair colour.
• 1 × Katha (Kattha) Powder, 40 g – Acacia catechu, stirred into henna for a deeper tone.
• 1 × Indigo Leaf Powder, 40 g – Indigofera tinctoria, applied after henna for brown to black shades.

How to Use

1. Mix henna with warm water to a thick, smooth paste; stir in 1–2 teaspoons of katha. Cover and rest for 2–4 hours.
2. Apply section by section on clean, dry hair. Leave for 1–3 hours (longer for a deeper tone) and rinse with plain water.
3. Mix indigo with water to a smooth paste and apply it at once – do not rest it – on the hennaed hair.
4. Leave for 1–2 hours and rinse with plain water. Avoid shampoo for the next 24 hours.
5. Do a patch test 24 hours before colouring and a strand test for shade. Wear gloves, keep away from eyes; not for eyebrows or eyelashes.

Who Is It For

For men and women who want to cover greys with plant powders, and for anyone unsure how henna and indigo will look on their hair. The trial size suits strand tests, short hair and root touch-ups between full applications.

FAQs

How do I get black hair with henna and indigo?

Use the two-step method: henna first for 1–3 hours, rinse, then fresh indigo for 1–2 hours. Repeat the indigo step if you want it darker.

Is 40 g enough for my hair?

It suits a strand test, a root touch-up or very short hair. Shoulder-length hair usually needs 100 g or more of each.

Why should indigo paste be used immediately?

Indigo releases its dye quickly once wet and weakens if left standing, so mix it just before applying.

For external use only. Do a patch test before first use.
