The powder is free from parabens, preservatives, PPD, ammonia, peroxides and synthetic dyes, and it arrives sealed in an aluminium foil pack to keep it fresh until use. Suitable for external application only, this indigo is designed to combine with or follow henna treatments to produce deeper, long-lasting dark tones without harsh ingredients.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I get dark brown to black hair with this indigo powder?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor best results, many users apply indigo after a henna base. Henna first deposits red-orange pigments; indigo overlays that color to create rich brown to black shades. If using indigo alone, the resulting tone depends on your starting hair color and the strength of the indigo paste.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFor black shades: apply henna, rinse, then apply indigo paste within 24–48 hours.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMix ratio: commonly 1 part indigo to 2–3 parts warm water for a smooth paste.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eProcessing time: 30–90 minutes depending on desired depth and hair porosity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePatch test: always test a small strand first to preview the final shade.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the proper way to prepare and apply the indigo paste?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePreparing indigo requires only water and time to release its dye. Use a non-metal bowl and spoon to mix a lump-free paste, apply to clean, towel-dried hair, and cover to keep moisture and warmth in while it develops.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUse warm water to mix to a yogurt-like consistency; avoid metal utensils.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eApply to dry or henna-treated hair with a brush or gloved hands for even coverage.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCover with plastic or a shower cap and leave for the recommended time.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRinse gently until water runs clear; avoid shampooing immediately to allow color to set.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow should I store and maintain the indigo powder?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIndigo powder is light- and moisture-sensitive, so storage affects shelf life and dye potency.
