Point to remember:
- There is no such thing as black henna. In order to make henna produce a black color, chemicals are added that are unsafe for your skin. Black henna should be avoided.
- Always use protective plastic gloves always, as the color will discolor your hands. The paste will also discolor your clothing, towels etc., so take necessary precautions.
- Permit the henna paste to settle on your hair for at least couple of hours. The duration of time necessary for coloring is dependent upon your hair type. If your hair gets the color very fast, it will be colored in about 40 minutes.
- When the paste has been on your hair for the required length of time, rinse it carefully. Rinse until the water is clear.
- Repeat applications of your henna and indigo will deepen the color results over time.
