I used the 2-step process, and no complaint about the quality of the packaging, or the results. But be aware that Mehndi/Indigo is not fully skin safe. I have never had any reaction to the chemical colors that I have used for many years on monthly basis. But I had a reaction to Mehndi/Indigo - on the 5th application ! I did all the right things - sufficient gap after my last chemical dye, patch test, minimal application initially - and did a full application only when everything was going fine. Both color and texture were good in the first few times. I really liked the color result (I have fully white hair), but sadly I have turned out to be allergic to Mehndi/Indigo. This was a purchase to confirm if I am indeed allergic to Indigo, or if something was wrong with my earlier purchased product. I got the same reaction from this too - itchy scalp, swollen forehead down to my eye area, and a mild reaction after every shampoo afterwards (maybe because the indigo was again coming into contact with the skin). My advice - consider it like any other chemical dye. Don't ignore any itching/swelling if you use Indigo/Mehndi. I have read about some very serious adverse reactions in some users. The process is tedious and time consuming, and the results are not as long lasting as chemical color. You may also need to start using an old towel over your pillow. But the color is definitely more natural looking. Also give around 2 month gap between any chemical dye before or after using Mehndi/Indigo because I read that these may react with each other and damage the color or the hair strands.

I love the product. It's all natural and works wonderfully. They even gave the list of instructions how to use and the best part for me is its even have pair of gloves in the package of heena powder.

This time extremely bad quality. Indigo colour was brown instead of green in the past. Applied twice. Didn't work. Resulted in odd colouring, reflects badly on the person using it, who is seen to be unable to get proper colouring done.

i used if, Happy with it

I am highly pleased with this product as it turned my grey hair back to its natural shades of black...I only wished I had tried this product earlier. Being highly allergic to harsh chemical hair colors, I had been through a lots of medical complications. This product is a boon and completely natural and safe. HERE IS WHAT I DID TO GET THE BEST RESULT. I used VLCC henna powder ( you can use Godrej or any renowned trusted brand of your choice) I made a thick paste of henna using luke warm water and straightaway applied it to my hair and kept it for 45 mins. Then I rinse it off with normal water without any shampoo. Once towel dried, I then quickly made another hair paste comprising 85% Indigo powder 15% Henna powder. I used enough quanity so that it can be used for two usages. Before applying this paste, my grey hair turned orange or slight reddish in some places. Now, keeping some quantity for lateral use, I applied this hair paste for exactly 2 hours and again rinse it off with normal cold water. By this time, my hair started showing slight black color radiance but still the greys were partially visible. One important point is...always use glass bowl or plastic bowl for preparing this paste....completely avoid using any metal utensils/ spoons during this process else because of oxidation you will not get the desired black color result. This is the final touch up...allow the remaining paste to sit for at least 5-6 hours...this will bring out the dark purplish color out of the paste mixture. You can use the first application in the morning and the touch up in the evening. Before applying, add a few drops of water to soothe the paste and again put this paste on to your hair and keep it for 2 hours. Rinse it again with normal water. Presto! you will see almost most part of your grey hair will turn into natural black hair. The best part is....the color will enhance your natural black radiance without overdoing it...(unlike chemical hair colors which artificially gives a black shines making everyone aware of using it). Try this method and let you know your feedbacks. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS!
