"As always the delivery was prompt & the outward packaging was fine. However, when I opened my parcel the packet of indigo inside was burst & went everywhere. But after phoning lovehennahair I received a very sincere apology & my complete order sent out again. Great customer service & a prompt resolution to my complaint. Will definitely continue to order."

Why we love Henna and Indigo...

Some interesting facts about henna and indigo
Henna and Indigo- Truly ‘green’ hair dyes

We have been extolling the virtues of our 100% natural hair dyes since we started selling them on our web site www.lovehennahair.co.uk in 2008. In fact, the ecological credentials of our natural hair dyes stretch beyond the fact that they are made purely by drying and grinding leaves of the plants Lawsonia Inermis (henna) and Indigofera tinctoria (Indigo). Henna and indigo are ecologically sound crops for small land holders in marginal farming areas, and if the market for these products increases, it will benefit family farms and soils, as well as preserving our own health.


Henna Powder
Henna is a green powder with a distinctive smell which, on its own, dyes hair orangey-red. It contains tannins known as hennotannic acid.  Tannins are slightly astringent and their use will tighten the surface of the scalp and hair follicles, strengthening the follicles’ grasp on each hair.  Henna penetrates the hair shaft, strengthens it, smooths the cuticle and thickens the hair, making your hair more resistant to breakage.




Indigo is also a (different shade of) green powder that smells like frozen peas.  If you mix that with water, you'll see a bluish purple glaze form on the surface after a while. It can be used in different combinations with henna to create a range of colours from orange to brown to black.

Freshly mixed henna powder

Thought I would show you what my freshly mixed henna looks like.

50g henna + 4 tablespoons lemon juice + water =

Yes, I am going to put this gooey, muddy-looking substance on my hair! It feels like a cool, soothing mudmask.

I will now leave this mixture for about 8 hours and then apply to my hair for about two hours.
Will then post some new pics of my hair in a few days.
