Apply Henna

- Never apply indigo alone on light or grey hair - it will give a blue or greenish tint. Always apply henna as a base.
- For brown shades: Mix both powders together before applying — no two-step needed.
- For deeper colour: Replace plain water with black tea or coffee when mixing your paste.
- Never oil hair before applying — oil prevents henna from binding to the hair shaft.
FAQs
Triphal Natural Hair Colour Kit contains two pure herb powders — Henna Powder (Lawsonia inermis) 100g and Indigo Powder (Indigofera tinctoria) 100g. Both are 100% pure leaf powders — no fillers, synthetic dyes, PPD, or preservatives. Together they give you a complete natural hair colouring system from warm brown to deep black.
100g of each powder is sufficient for:
- Short hair — 2–3 full applications
- Medium/shoulder-length hair — 1–2 full applications
- Long hair — 1 full application
The colour depends on the ratio you use and your original hair colour:
- Henna only — red-orange to burgundy (depends on original hair colour)
- Henna + Indigo 2:1 mixed — warm brown
- Henna + Indigo 1:1 mixed — dark brown
- Two-step method (henna first, then indigo) — deep natural black
Grey hair absorbs colour most vividly — those with more grey will see richer results.
Use the classical two-step method — apply henna paste to clean dry hair and leave for 2–3 hours, then rinse without shampoo. Immediately apply fresh indigo paste on damp hair and leave for 1–2 hours, then rinse. Do not mix both powders together if you want black — mixing gives brown, not black. The two-step method is key for deep, long-lasting black.
Mixing them together gives brown or dark brown — not black. For black, the two-step method is essential. Apply henna first, rinse, then apply indigo separately. This is because henna needs to fully bind to the hair shaft before indigo can deposit its colour on top.
No — never apply indigo alone on light, grey, or white hair. Without a henna base, indigo gives a blue or greenish tint on light hair. Always apply henna first to create a warm base, then indigo for depth.
Natural henna and indigo colour typically lasts 4–6 weeks depending on hair type, washing frequency, and sun exposure. The colour fades gradually and naturally — it does not leave harsh root lines like chemical dyes. Touch up every 3–4 weeks for consistent grey coverage.
Yes — but always do a strand test first. Henna and indigo can interact with existing chemical dyes and produce unexpected tones, especially on bleached or highlighted hair. Apply on a small section and observe the result before doing a full application. Wait at least 5–6 weeks after any chemical treatment before using this kit.
Pure henna applied to hair is generally considered safe during pregnancy — many Ayurvedic practitioners recommend it as a natural alternative to chemical dyes. Always do a patch test first and consult your doctor if you are in the first trimester. Indigo is also considered safe for topical hair use — but consult your doctor before use during pregnancy as a precaution.
Black tea or coffee instead of plain water — deeper, richer colour
Lemon juice — stronger dye release and more vibrant colour
Amla powder — extra conditioning and colour depth
Aloe vera gel — smoother paste, softer hair
Egg white — if indigo doesn't adhere well to hair
Henna has a natural earthy, hay-like smell that fades within 1–2 washes. Indigo has a mild, slightly herbaceous scent. Neither has an unpleasant chemical smell — which is one of the most appreciated differences from chemical dyes. Add a few drops of rose water or essential oil to your paste if you prefer a lighter scent.
This happens when indigo is applied on light or grey hair without a proper henna base, or when henna was not left on long enough to fully bind. To correct: apply henna again and leave for 4–5 hours to build a stronger base, then reapply indigo. The greenish tint will fade within a few washes.
Absolutely — this kit works equally well for men. For grey coverage or beard colouring, apply the same two-step method using smaller quantities. For beard application, apply carefully and rinse thoroughly.
