INDIGO

Amogha's Natural Indigo Powder

Indigo, derived from the Indigofera tinctoria plant, is a powerful natural dye used for centuries to achieve rich, deep hair colours. Unlike chemical dyes, Indigo works synergistically with Henna to create beautiful shades of brown and black without damaging your hair. It leaves your hair healthy, conditioned, and full of natural shine.

Comprehensive Benefits

• Natural Dark Colour :Used after Henna, it provides deep brown to brilliant black tones and effectively covers grey hair without the brassiness of chemical dyes.

• Hair Strengthening

• Adds a rich, deep shine to the hair, enhancing its natural depth and colour.

• How to Use: The Two-Step Process (Required for Best Results)

Indigo must always be used after a Henna application. Indigo alone on grey hair may result in an unwanted blue-green tint.

STEP 1: The Henna Base

First, apply the Amoghas Natural Henna Powder (as directed in the Henna instructions) and rinse it out thoroughly with water. Your grey hair will now be a reddish-orange or deep red colour. This base is essential for the Indigo to bind correctly.

STEP 2: The Indigo Application

1. Mix: In a non-metallic bowl, mix the required amount of Indigo powder with warm water  to form a smooth, thick, creamy paste.

   • Note:. Use it immediately after mixing.

2. Apply: Apply the paste quickly and generously to your towel-dried, Henna-treated hair, focusing on the areas you want to darken (e.g., the red roots).

3. Cover: Cover your hair with a plastic wrap or shower cap to keep the paste moist and warm.

4. Wait:

   • For Dark Brown: Leave the Indigo on for 45 minutes to 1.5 hours.

   • For Rich Black: Leave the Indigo on for 2 to 3 hours.

5. Rinse: Rinse your hair thoroughly with plain water until the water runs clear. Do NOT use shampoo or conditioner for the next 24-48 hours.

Important Notes

• Colour Setting: The final colour will continue to deepen over the next 24-48 hours as the Indigo oxidizes.

• Shampoo: For the longest-lasting colour, avoid using shampoo for at least 48 hours after the final rinse.

• Storage: KEEP AWAY FROM MOISTURE. Indigo's potency degrades quickly when exposed to air and light, so store any unused powder in an airtight, cool, dark place.

• Patch Test: Always perform a patch test on a small section of hair (and skin) 24 hours before full application to check for any reaction and to preview the final colour.
