INDIAN HENNA BLACK is a certified organic plant-based hair colour created according to traditional Ayurvedic recipes from a carefully selected blend of Henna, Indigo and Amla.

The colour gives the hair a deep and rich natural black shade with cool dark brown and blue-black highlights while providing comprehensive cosmetic care for the hair and scalp.

The product is certified by the French organisation Ecocert SA in accordance with the requirements of the USDA Organic — National Organic Program (NOP) standard and carries the highest 100% Organic labelling category. The certification confirms the organic status of the finished botanical blend, control over the origin of the raw materials and compliance with the established requirements throughout its production and processing.

Unlike conventional oxidative hair colours, botanical pigments do not require ammonia or hydrogen peroxide. They combine with the hair’s original colour and coat its surface with a fine layer of pigment without damaging the hair’s natural structure.

After colouring, the hair appears thicker, smoother and more voluminous, with a natural shine and well-cared-for appearance. The botanical formula helps strengthen weakened hair, reduce dryness and breakage, makes the hair easier to comb and acts as a natural conditioner.

The colour is suitable for all hair types, including fine, dry, weakened, dull, porous and breakage-prone hair. It can be used for regular colouring, maintaining shade intensity and covering grey hair.

A black shade with an individual result

INDIAN HENNA does not lighten the hair’s natural colour. The botanical pigments combine with the original shade, which means that the final result will be individual for every person.

Depending on the original hair colour, the following results are possible: on light and light blonde hair — a deep dark brown or black shade which may have cool botanical nuances after the first application; on medium blonde hair — a rich dark brown or natural black shade; on grey and white hair — a shade ranging from dark brown to black, with possible temporary greenish or bluish nuances immediately after colouring; on dark blonde and chestnut hair — a deep natural black tone with additional richness and shine; on dark brown and black hair — a deeper, more even and richer black shade with additional shine; on previously coloured, lightened or porous hair the colour may appear more intense, darker or less even.

Immediately after colouring, the shade may appear dark brown or have slight greenish or bluish nuances caused by the action of Indigo. This is a normal characteristic of botanical colouring. Over the following 24–48 hours, the colour oxidises, becomes deeper and more natural, and develops its final dark shade.

Before first use, it is recommended to carry out a strand test. This will allow you to assess the individual result in advance and determine the optimal processing time.

Grey coverage

INDIAN HENNA BLACK is suitable for colouring grey hair; however, the result depends on the amount of grey hair, its structure and porosity, and previous colouring treatments.

Where there is a small or moderate amount of grey hair, the blend helps create a natural, multidimensional effect: grey hairs take on lighter dark brown or graphite shades, while the remaining hair develops a deep black tone. This makes the colour appear vibrant, dimensional and natural.

Where there is a high proportion of grey hair or the hair is completely grey, the shade may appear lighter or less even after the first application or may have temporary greenish or bluish nuances. A second application may be required for a deeper and more uniform black result.

For resistant grey hair, a two-step colouring process is recommended to achieve the deepest and most even black shade: first with pure Henna and then with the INDIAN HENNA BLACK blend. Henna creates a warm colour base with which the Indigo pigments can interact more evenly. A strand test must be carried out before the procedure.

Botanical colourants have a cumulative effect. With regular use, the shade becomes deeper and more durable, while the transition between grey and pigmented hair becomes less noticeable.

Three organic Ayurvedic plants for colour and care

Henna (Lawsonia inermis) creates a warm colour base, coats the surface of the hair, helps strengthen its structure and gives the hair thickness, smoothness, visible volume and natural shine. In combination with Indigo, it supports the development of a deep and even dark shade.

Indigo (Indigofera tinctoria) is the principal ingredient used to create deep dark brown and black colour. Depending on the original hair shade, the proportions of the botanical pigments and the processing time, Indigo makes the colour darker, cooler and richer.

Amla (Emblica officinalis / Phyllanthus emblica) is one of the most highly valued Ayurvedic plants for hair care. It helps strengthen the hair, preserve its elasticity and natural shine, and supports the development of a deeper and more balanced shade.

Colour and care in a single treatment

INDIAN HENNA BLACK does more than change the shade of the hair: it also provides intensive cosmetic care. With regular use, the hair appears stronger, thicker and more vibrant. The effect is particularly noticeable on fine, weakened, dull hair lacking volume.

Product quantity required

The required amount of powder depends on the length, thickness and structure of the hair: short hair — approximately 30–50 g; medium-length hair — approximately 50–80 g; long or thick hair — approximately 100 g or more.

One 100 g pack is usually sufficient for a full application on medium-length hair. Two packs may be required for very long or thick hair.

A smaller amount of powder is required when colouring only regrowth. Prepare enough mixture to cover the target area evenly and generously.

Directions for use

Before colouring, wash the hair with a shampoo free from silicones, oils and conditioning additives. Do not use conditioner or a hair mask. Gently towel-dry the hair. Before beginning the procedure, put on protective gloves and protect your clothing. A rich cream may be applied to the skin along the hairline, taking care not to apply it to the hair itself.

1. 
   

   Place the required amount of powder in a clean, non-metallic bowl.

   
   


2. 
   

   Gradually add hot water at a temperature not exceeding 50 °C, mixing thoroughly.

   
   


3. 
   

   Mix until a smooth, creamy consistency resembling thick yoghurt or ketchup is obtained. The mixture should spread easily through the hair without running.

   
   


4. 
   

   If desired, add one teaspoon of salt per 100 g of powder. This may help produce a deeper and cooler shade through the action of Indigo.

   
   


5. 
   

   Use the prepared mixture immediately. Do not leave it standing for an extended period and do not store any remaining mixed colour.

   
   


6. 
   

   Apply the warm mixture evenly to the hair, beginning at the roots and gradually distributing it throughout the lengths. Every strand should be completely covered.

   
   


7. 
   

   After application, the mixture may be gently distributed with a wide-toothed, non-metallic comb.

   
   


8. 
   

   Put on the plastic cap and wrap the head in a towel to retain warmth.

   
   


9. 
   

   Leave the colour on the hair for 60 minutes. For a richer and deeper shade, the processing time may be increased to 90–120 minutes.

   
   


10. 
    

    Rinse the hair thoroughly with plenty of warm water without shampoo until the water runs clear.
    
    Do not use water hotter than 50 °C: excessively hot water may weaken the action of Indigo, resulting in a warmer, browner or more reddish shade.
    
    For the first 24–48 hours after colouring, it is not recommended to use shampoo, conditioner, a hair mask or oil. This allows the botanical pigments to develop fully and bond with the hair.
    
    How to preserve the colour
    
    To prolong the durability and intensity of the shade, use the special INDIAN HENNA COLOR CARE shampoo for coloured hair; avoid deep-cleansing shampoos immediately after colouring; do not wash the hair with excessively hot water; limit the use of oils and intensive hair masks during the first few days after colouring; protect the hair from prolonged sun exposure; rinse the hair with clean water after swimming in seawater or chlorinated water; repeat the colouring process as the roots grow and the shade gradually fades.
    
    Important information about the colouring result
    
    Botanical hair colours have a cumulative effect: with repeated applications, the shade may become richer, deeper and darker.
    
    When colouring only regrowth, it is recommended to apply the mixture primarily to the root area. Frequent repeated application over the entire length may gradually make the shade darker.
    
    Before colouring the entire head, always perform a strand test, especially if the hair has been lightened, bleached, permed, severely damaged or previously coloured with synthetic hair dye.
    
    It is not recommended to apply a blend with a high Indigo content directly to very light, bleached or completely grey hair without first performing a strand test: the result may be uneven or may develop a pronounced greenish or bluish shade. In such cases, a two-step colouring process is preferable.
    
    After using Henna or Indigo, the result of subsequent chemical colouring, bleaching or perming may be less predictable. Before undergoing any such procedure, inform your hairdresser that a botanical hair colour has been used and perform a strand test.
    
    Precautions
    
    For external use only. Do not use to colour eyebrows or eyelashes.
    
    Before first use, it is recommended to perform an individual sensitivity test and a test application on a separate strand of hair.
    
    Do not apply to an irritated, inflamed, damaged or flaking scalp.
    
    Avoid contact between the powder or prepared mixture and the eyes. If the product comes into contact with the eyes, rinse immediately and thoroughly with plenty of clean water.
    
    Do not inhale the powder. Wear protective gloves during preparation and application. Do not use metal bowls, spoons or combs.
    
    If severe burning, itching, redness or any other adverse reaction occurs during use, rinse the product off immediately and discontinue use.
    
    Store tightly closed in a dry, dark place at room temperature and out of reach of children. Protect the powder from moisture.
