Organic Indigo Powder For Hair Color

If you have a hair dye allergy or have been advised by your physician to not use chemical hair dye to dye your hair, you should be able to use Ancient Sunrise® Zekhara indigo and other Ancient Sunrise® products safely.

Ancient Sunrise Zekhara Indigo, sometimes referred to by the misnomer "indigo henna" or "black henna for hair," is not henna, but partially fermented, dried and powdered organic indigofera tinctoria leaves.

This organic powder is the best indigo hair dye for gray hair. Zekhara indigo can be used with a cassia/henna or henna mix to create different shades of blonde, red, brown, and black hair.*

Even if you're dyeing resistant gray hair, this product will cover beautifully. The fine sift will rinse nicely out of fragile hair and kinky,curly hair without breakage.

For a smooth texture, we recommend that you mix indigo with CMC powder.

Ancient Sunrise® Indigo works on chemically treated hair!You may need to do additional applications for your desired result, depending on how much damage was caused by previous products.

Ancient Sunrise products will not lighten your hair. Color may vary from head to head. For assistance in creating a custom formula, contact customer service.

Headache

I started having very bad headaches when applying indigo, and I solved it by putting a bandaid on my nose, covering both nostrils, the whole time (from before I mix the indigo to right after I wash it away) so I can't smell. I haven't had any headaches in more than a year of doing this; it definitely was the smell. I hope this helps someone.
