    Sorry guys I told that it was best to ask the laundry guys for indigo but NO that indigo is different .the one we are talking about is the real crushed leaves of indigo.I just got it applied and am very happy with the result.

    Re: black hair

    Hi All

    this is my personal experience

    I do monthly once with Curry leaves and henna powder into a paste leave it in my hair and wash it with plain water . I avoid using shampoo only very rarely . I use more natural products (meaning only home made ones ). And i oil the same day with olive oil . My grandma did this and her hair stayed all black until she was 80 yrs and it turned to be half grey not fully grey when she was 85.

    Hope this helps some people .

    I make lot of home made recipies and tried at home . This one is my grandmas recipie ... May god bless my grandmas soul for her great recipie .

    For smooth hair : Boil hibicus flower and leave put into grind make it a paste and wash hair with this . You hair will be shiny and lightly put olive oil.

    Re: Black Hair

    Yes. Coloring black.. the hair loses it's shine quite a bit.

    I have heard from one of the beautician friend that pitch black color has to fade by it's own because any color over that wouldn't work at all. Have you explored the option on henna-ing the hair over the black? I got a pack from a mediterranean store that would give a red color. But again am not sure if you can even henna the colored hair.
