Zenia Indigo Powder (Indigofera Tinctoria) | Hair/Beard Dye Color 3.5oz (100g) | 100% Pure & Natural | No Preservatives

For all of the ladies who said this stuff doesn't work, you must have applied it wrong. Its really not rocket science! I did not follow the instructions given by doing henna first. I simply added a tbsp. and a half of Nupur Mehendi to about 6 oz. of Indigo powder and I got amazing results. My hair is about 35% grey and I'm only 36. I have been grey since I was 17 and always used chemical dyes in black or platinum blond. Black in the winter and blonde in the summer. I love to color my hair but since I have gone all natural for the first time in 14 years of having natural hair, I decided to try indigo to color it instead. Now keep in mind I have used henna several times throughout the 14 years of being natural but I have never used Indigo powder. I needed to cover my grey for a party this weekend so I ordered this Friday 8/3/13 and I got it on 8/6/13 so that was pretty fast. So I mixed it first by itself and did a strand test. It was a little green at first even after letting it sit for about an hour but I noticed the top was turning black after covering it for another half hour. So I added the Nupur thinking it would cut down the greenish look. I really don't think that worked but I added some more indigo just to make sure the color would still be dark. I read some reviews that said Nupur makes it red so I didn't want any red hair. Also, I didn't use a lot of Nupur incase this process didn't turn out right. So getting to applying the product. My hair was dry when I put it in. From roots to tips, I applied it while trying to message it in as much as possible before moving around my head. Once I had applied it all over, I quickly mixed up a small batch of the product making it a little more soupy than the one I had already applied. Then I started adding hot water from the sink by wetting my hands (sparingly), rubbing them together to get a little soupiness then applied to my head I did this until my whole head was wet to the consistency of a regular chemical dye. Then I applied my soupy mixture just for added security incase I missed some spots. Chemical dyes have their own moisture from the ingredients but henna and indigo are dry from the start meaning they need moisture applied to really work. My hair was wet but not dripping. I had no dripping at all. I put a plastic cap on, a bonnet and wrapped a head band around my head to keep the heat in. My results were amazing after leaving it on for about 4 hours. My greys are gone and my hair is really dark. I really wish I could have left it on over night but I'm working out in the morning and this would be a hassle for me at 4:45 in the am. So I washed it out, co-washed then gave myself and Olive Oil hot oil treatment with a heating bonnet for 30 minutes. I wash my hair with black soap anyway but I used it to get the oil out a little from the H.O.T. For the most part, my hair has oil in it because I can comb throw it but its not greasy. For those who have not figured it out yet, I'm African American with 3c hair. LOL! I hope this helps someone. I read about 50 reviews before I purchase anything, just to get an array of different opinions. Good luck!

I was really worried about trying indigo on it's own. I had purchased Godrej Nurpur Mehendi powder from amazon about two months ago but didn't achieve the color I wanted. Then I tried Light Mountain black henna and that was so gritty and didn't give me the results I wanted either. I was worried about the quality of indigo powder (after reading a few other reviews from previous zenia indigo) so I purchased this one since it said from the 2012 crop. Felt like I had a better chance of the color being more vibrant. I mixed about half of the bag (because my hair is pretty thin) with 1 tbsp of salt. I let it sit for 15 min. when you mix henna it looks reddish or brown, but indigo looks green; and that worried me! However I knew that my hair had just been heenaed the week before so I wasnt really worried about my hair turning green. I applied it to my already washed, (not conditioned) damp hair. Then I let it sit for an hour. While it was sitting on my hair I could see my hair turning a burgundy color so I was really excited to see the finished color. When I rinsed it out it was a mess. So much messier than when I hennaed my hair twice before. There was green dye everywhere. I washed my hair about 6 times, conditioning it every time I rinsed it. I got tired of rinsing it and decided to just let it dry. When it dried it was definitely darker. Two days later I washed my hair with shampoo (which was still another mess), conditioned it and straightened it (my hair is naturally curly). The results are amazing. I didnt believe this but indigo does deepen over time because two days later my hair was a richer brown tone. I have a beautiful deep chestnut brown hair color. Exactly the color I wanted in the beginning. It is good quality powder and I will buy this again.

My hair began to go gray many years ago, so I have used indigo with henna to cover them up for many years now and this is definitely the best quality indigo powder! It gives me the perfect black color to hide any grays (or whites). Even my husband, who hates using typical hair dye, loves this indigo powder to achieve the most natural black. At first, I was a little iffy about using the product because of one or two reviews, but I realized that many people out there don't use the product correctly. I mixed the henna and let it sit for 1 hour and then after the henna application I mixed the indigo powder and let it sit for 10 minutes ONLY before applying! Many people leave it for more than 10 minutes and complained that they did not get black color. This indigo product covered my grays so easily and didn't make my scalp feel itchy or sore. The product is definitely natural as my body is very sensitive to chemicals. I recommend this to all my girlfriends and swear by it! What a great value!

Bien empacado, el pelo me queda castaño muy oscuro como mi color natural ni rastro de canas
