Dyeing hair is the most common way to colour grey hair and has become a part of the hair care routine for most people.

 

Henna is the go-to ingredient for the hair colouring needs of every natural hair care enthusiast, and it's one of the oldest dye known to mankind.

 

Our plant-derived Henna Powder is made with shade dried Henna leaves from Rajasthan, and our powder is triple sieved to obtain a fine powder. Lawsone is the main active ingredient in henna (lawsonia inermis). When Lawsone is high, henna is considered to be of the best quality(our henna powder contains a high quantity of lawsone).

 

But did you know that henna can do a lot more than just colour your hair? The versatile hair care ingredient - the Henna - can be used to maintain overall hair health. Conditioning, repairing damage, and balancing pH levels, reducing dandruff, etc, are just some of the many benefits that henna offers.

 

Why shift to natural hair dye?

Conventional hair dye is made with harmful chemicals that are put directly on the scalp each time hair is dyed, either at home or in the salon. Harmful ingredients in hair dyes are ammonia, peroxide, Resorcinol, Sulphates, Paraphenylenediamine(PPD), etc. One common precursor is PPD, which is derived from petroleum. Because it gives a long-lasting colour that has a natural look, it's used in a lot of hair dyes.

 

Harmful effects of commercially available dyes are many, including skin allergies, hairloss, cancer, renal failure, respiratory problems, scalp infections, toxicity in blood, etc.
