Natural Indigo was left on the hair for 4 hours. It was washed out using water and shampoo. Individual results will vary. We recommend  you  harvest hair from your hairbrush and test the dye on that hair sample. Color will wash out within 20-30 days, depending upon how often you wash your hair. Indigo is not permanent.

The Organic Ingredients:

• True Indigo (indigofera tinctoria) gives a blue-black color tone.

Natural Indigo as Hair Dye

Indigo is combined with other herbal dyes to create brown and black color shades for the hair. For those seekers of adventure, indigo can be applied to hennaed hair for a semi-permanent black hair color. Indigo is completely safe for your health and has been used in body care before the time of Christ.

Synthetic Hair Dyes Cause Chronic Illness

Article after article online will say that chemical hair dye is safe when used by the directions. Even the FDA claims that it is safe for use in hair dyes. But when the animal studies and news reports of human deaths show otherwise, we should sit up and pay attention. There is no reason to poison our bodies with hair dye.

How Much Natural Indigo to Use?

How much Natural Indigo you will need for a single hair application will depend upon 3 things:

• Your hair length
• Your hair thickness
• Your hair type. Curly hair should be measured by pulling it straight to determine the true length.

BioAnue Natural Indigo is sold in 100 gram pouches. The following is an estimation to help you buy what it will take to dye your hair one time.

Buy 1 bag (100g) of Natural Indigo for short hair cut to the ears and neckline.
Buy 2 bags (200g) of Natural Indigo for collar length hair.
Buy 3 bags (300g) of Natural Indigo for shoulder length hair.
Buy 5 bags (500g) of Natural Indigo for waist length hair. 

Supplies to Dye Hair:

• BioAnue Protect your hairline: Apply a thin coat of petroleum jelly on the skin around the hairline, including the forehead, ears, neck and jawline. This will prevent indigo from staining your face. (Be sure to keep the jelly out of your hair.)
   
• Distilled water (approx. ¼ water to ¾ dye powder)
• Gloves for hands
• Hand mixer for thorough mixing
• Glass or ceramic bowl
• Petroleum jelly for hairline
• Plastic bag
• Plastic wrap
• Heat cap or aluminum foil
• Hair clips to section long hair
• 1 hour to rest and relax

Directions for Usage:

• Prepare hair: Hair should be clean and damp or dry, free of conditioners and styling gels.

For those with hard water which contains lots of minerals, you may desire to rinse your hair with diluted vinegar to help remove minerals from hair. 

• Mix Indigo: Wear protective gloves and old clothing as Natural Indigo will stain skin and clothes. Put powder into heat-proof bowl. Boil distilled water and pour over cassia power. Mix until thickness of yogurt.  Cool before applying mixture to scalp and hair. (Using an old hand mixer works very well to get the henna completely mixed.) 

• Protect your hairline: Apply a thin coat of petroleum jelly on the skin around the hairline, including the forehead, ears, neck and jawline. This will prevent the indigo from staining your face. If you do get indigo stains on your skin, it can take up to a week to wash off. (Be sure to keep the jelly out of your hair.) 

• Apply Natural Indigo to hair and scalp:  Divide hair into sections and apply the indigo paste from the scalp out to the tips of the hair.  

• Cover the Hair: Roll hair into a ball on top of the head and cover with plastic wrap or a plastic bag. Additionally, place a heat cap or aluminum foil over the plastic to promote heat to the hair for good dye application.  

• Time: Leave the Indigo in the hair from 30 minutes 1 hour depending upon the desired color tone. The longer it is left on the hair, the more color tone is imparted to the hair. 

• Rinse: Rinse the Indigo out of the hair in the shower or in a sink. It can take several minutes of rinsing and shampooing to get the mud-like indigo out of the hair.
