How to dye your hair brunette with henna and indigo?

Dye your hair brunette in the healthy and smart way!

In chemical dyes, there are such chemicals as para-phenylenediamine, metallic salts, ammonia - and other dangerous ingredients - chemical poison. 

You should dye your hair in the way that is beneficial to your health. There is a smart way of doing it. You will dye your hair plus you will treat it! This way is simple and less expensive than using harmful chemical dyes.


Mix henna with indigo and get what you want:


If you use just henna over white hair, the color is coppery red. 


If you use just indigo, the color is blue. 


If you combine henna and indigo, you will get brunette colors. 


If there is more henna than indigo, the color will be warm reddish brown. 


If there is more indigo than henna, the color will be dark brown. 


There is no paraphenylenediamine in these mixes, no ammonia, no peroxide, nothing but pure body art quality powdered dried plant leaves. These colors are permanent. And they protect your hair from damage. In addition, they make your hair thicker.


If you are a man and your hair is short and grey, and you want to make it dark brown, use the following proportions: 2 teaspoons of henna and 4 teaspoons of indigo (use either glass / plastic bowl and teaspoon). Mix henna with apple cider vinegar (or lemon juice) and add a bit of water (make the thickness like yoghurt), cover the bowl with a plastic bag and keep it for 24 hours. Then mix indigo with water, make a thick paste (thick like youghurt). Mix henna with indigo (mix well). Apply the mixture immediately on your hair. Cover your hair with a plastic bag. Keep it for 4 hours. After 4 hours wash it with water and shampoo of your choice. Your hair will be brown. 


You can repeat the above process if you want a darker color. Please note that it will not be possible to make the color lighter.
