Indigo Powder (Indigofera Tinctoria) 800 g

Indigo Powder   (Indigofera tinctoria)

Indigo is a natural dye, the same used for dying blue jeans. It can make your hair blue-black, if you already have dark hair. Indigo is messy, but is safe. Most black hair dyes contain PPD, a dangerous chemical that can cause allergic reactions.

This helps give the indigo a base to stick to. You can mix indigo into henna to get shades of reddish-brown to auburn to brownish black.

You can try different amounts of henna and indigo, or mix in other botanicals to change the color. Just remember that while you only need to leave indigo on a short time, henna takes much longer. A henna mix should be left on at least 4 hours, and 8 is best.

Powdered indigo should NEVER be stored in the freezer, as this kills dye release in the plant. It is best to store it in a DRY, DARK place, and it will keep in its powder form for up to a year. An indigo mix cannot be stored, as it releases its dye quickly. Only mix as much as you need. Do not Freeze the remaining mix as you would henna; frozen indigo is useless.
