## Description

MB Herbals Indigo Powder 100 Gram Indigofera tinctoria Leaf Powder

Review: Great product! - I really liked this brand! I’ve been using Hennasooq for several years and really like their products a lot but needed to find a less expensive alternative. I tried Minature once a year or so ago and I don’t know what happened because they have good reviews but it just seemed to fry my hair so I’m afraid to try them again. This MB herbals worked perfectly with henna (if you have any gray hair you must do henna first, followed by indigo and however much of premixed and pre dye released henna, mixed in with it to cover the gray). I used this indigo as a two part process and my hair came out colored beautifully with softness and shine. I switched over to this brand. In my henna mix I always use aloe powder, Amal powder (to keep curls and to get more golden browns as opposed to reds) and some melted Shea butter as well as apple cider vinegar. But in the indigo you can only use salt (I use 2 tbsp) which helps the color stick to your hair. If you use anything else in the indigo, or try to use it without henna, it will not work and may even turn your hair green as it is not meant to use alone. After your henna and indigo have dye released separately, then you can mix henna and indigo together. This product worked great, is a very fine powder and mixes well. My hair turned out exactly how I expected, an off black with golden undertones and super shiny and soft! (My natural color is a medium to light brown with lots of reddish golden highlights). If you do a two part process just don’t be too shocked to your grays turn bright orange at first! After you’ve completed the two processes of henna and indigo it takes a couple of days for the color to “settle” in. Also the reason I use aloe, Shea butter and apple cider vinegar is because of the way henna gets into the hair shaft and can be drying for the first week or so, for certain types of hair (like mine since I perm it) but it is so good for your hair and does not dry at all when adding those products. In fact, I’ve permed for almost 40 years so I kinda got used to frizzy, dull, brittle hair. But since using henna and indigo my hair is soft and shiny with the exception of the ends that are still growing out because I refuse to chop it all off at once. Hopefully what I’ve learned helps anyone else trying to learn the process of using henna and indigo and / or deciding whether or not to try this brand.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this indigo fermented?**
A: No. This is raw dry Indigo Powder. It is not fermented. Hence, the color of the Indigo Powder is Green.
For fermentation, indigo is mixed with water. When it comes in contact with Oxygen in water (or excessive moist air), then indigo gets fermented. The fermented indigo paste when it is ready to be applied on hair, appears blue.

**Q: Can this be used as a dye for paper or fabric?**
A: Yes.

However, please note that our Indigo Powder natural and untreatyed. Hence, it is green in color and only upon oxidation, it turns blue.  

To use any natural indigo powder for a paper or a fabric dye requires oxidation of indigo. The color will not be as fast (strong) as the classical vatted indigo but if you expose the fabric to air for a longer duration then it will give a fairly good Indigo blue color. 

Soaking the powder in Cold water will give a better indigo stain than normal or warm water.

**Q: Why is it that when I mix this Indigo that it remains green and does not turn the blueish black like Indigo should?**
A: Hi, Our Indigo Powder is pure. We haven't added any chemical to it. Indigo will color your hair to blue or bluish black if you follow the 2 step hair coloring  process as mentioned in the description on our amazon page. 

Air contains moisture. Hence if a pure indigo powder turns to blue or black upon contact with water, then leaving indigo powder or even Indigo leaves in open air should also turn the dry powder to blue or black. But this doesn't happen. Indigo leaves never turn into blue. They remain green. Hence if an Indigo Powder turns to blue or black when mixed with water then be sure that such powder might be mixed with color enhancers or chemicals.  Indigo needs to be fermented in order to get the blue color. 

Indigo should be applied 1 day after applying henna. Unlike henna, Indigo paste should not be allowed to mature in the container but it should be applied on hair immediately as soon as it is made. It should be allowed to dry on hair and then rinsed with water after a few hours. No shampoo after rising off Indigo. After a few hours when Indigo gets oxidised on the hair, it will color the hair to blue or bluish black.

Pls try the above 2 step process. If you don't get the hair color to deep blue or bluish black, we will refund your full payment without any questions. No return formalities and no questions asked. This applies to all of our MB Herbals products for all of our customers.

**Q: Can I use Black walnut powder first instead of henna since I don’t want red or warm tones? Is the henna first necessary?**
A: Yes ,henna always first and then indigo gives you black color .I don’t know how black walnut powder work with indigo

Colors hair good after using henna powder

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good product
*by J***. on March 20, 2020*

This is my second order of Indigo powder, the reason I bought from this seller because of their refund promise and reasonable price. I used up the first bag within a month, because I was experimenting with different formulas to achieve the color I like. I had never used Indigo or Henna powder to color my hair. My original hair color is Asian black with more than 50% of grey that is not mixed in well, in other words I have lines of gray roots. Although I colored 3 times in the first month, my hair looks healthier. And, for the first time in my life I have not seen fallen hair on the floors. The not so fun experience is the result can be surprising, the color becomes lighter after my first shampoo. And for a few days, I would see blue color on the wipes that I used to clean my face and neck, often on my nails too. But, I am glad that I found these natural products, I feel safe using them.
