    Hi
    I read from mehandi.com that indigo/Neeli when applied on top of Mehandi turns grey hairs black. Well, say it stress or the gift of US, I am all greyed enough at 25.
    Got this Avuri/Neeli powder from a renowned Herbal store in India and had it shipped here. When I put warm water & let it stay aside for sometime, it did not turn blue. It stayed green. Not sure if I can apply it or not. On the packet, it says it helps hair grow black & that it can be taken everyday internally.

    Let me know if any of you have come across this /know if it is ok to have it green & still apply. I applyed to portion of my hair (from brush ) and it didnt seem to do any harm - neither did it do any good.

    Is it ok if it does not turn blue?

    Thanks

    HELLO EVERYBODY
    THANKS FOR ALL GREAT INFORMATION...

    I HAVE A QUESTION
    1, if we use only indigo paste without applying henna (previous day) the hair color will become jet black right?
    means by mixing indigo with warm water & salt..
    bcoz my wife needs jet black hairs....

    Thanks & Regards
    sandy

    if you apply henna, then no use of applying indigo powder.. it is quite natural for hair..

    Friends, for the past few years I started using dyes like Loreal and then Revlon. Became allergic to all of them and lost 50% hair. Last week my daughter said no more chemical dyes and I bought Herbal Hair dye by (Praba's) V Care. It says it is 0% chemicals. When I am about to try that I came across this post.

    Like to know is it really 0% chemical and your experience of using this V Care's herbal dye.

    Thanks in advance

    Re: black hair

    Hi Pari,

    I have much grey hair, used to apply Godrej's Nupur Mehendi but that would give unwanted red colour. I came across Dr Jain's Greynil powder ( Henna+ Indigo) and have begun just today and hope it gives good results.

    but how about i use Godrej's Nupur mehendi and Indigo powder separately, and on alternate occasions? I read in in this reviews that it gives better results. In that case please suggest a good brand of Indigo powder that i can use.
    Thanks in advance,
    Mrs. Raman

    I started using V Care Herbal hair dye. It has two packs - one is henna powder and the other one is Indigo powder. Two step procedure. It gives good result and no scalp itching after using it.
