Indigo hair colour is a two-step tradition: mehndi first, then a paste of ground indigo leaves to take the red towards brown or black. This pack of three 150 g packs is sized for people with long or thick hair, or for families where more than one person colours at home.
Key Benefits
- Gives natural colour over henna – from soft brown to deep black.
- Leaves hair looking shiny and feeling smooth.
- Shade can be adjusted by timing and by the henna-to-indigo ratio.
- Three packs mean you open only what you need.
- Plain leaf powder that mixes with water alone.
What’s Inside
3 packs of 150 g each, 450 g in total:
- 3 × Indigo Leaf Powder, 150 g – the powdered leaves of Indigofera tinctoria, called neel in Hindi and avuri or neelayamari in the South. It has been used as a natural dye in India for centuries.
How to Use
- Step 1 – henna: apply henna paste (sold separately) for 1–3 hours and rinse with water only.
- Step 2 – indigo: mix indigo with water to a smooth paste and apply immediately on towel-dried, hennaed hair.
- Leave for about 1 hour for brown shades and up to 2 hours for black, then rinse with plain water.
- Skip shampoo for 24–48 hours while the colour settles and deepens.
- Wear gloves, do a patch test 24 hours before and a strand test for shade. Not for eyebrows or eyelashes.
Who Is It For
For men and women with grey, brown or black hair who colour with henna and want a darker result. Indigo applied alone on grey hair gives little to no colour, so keep henna in the routine.

FAQs
How do I get black hair with henna and indigo?
Apply henna, rinse, then apply fresh indigo paste for 1.5–2 hours. A repeat indigo application a day later can deepen the shade.
How do I get brown instead of black?
Shorten the indigo time to 30–60 minutes, or mix about 2 parts henna to 1 part indigo and apply in one step.
Can I add salt or anything else to indigo paste?
Plain water is enough. Some people add a pinch of salt; it is optional. Avoid lemon juice or other sour liquids.
For external use only. Do a patch test before first use.
