After the henna treatment, prepare the indigo separately according to its instructions and apply it to the hair. The final shade can vary depending on your natural hair color, the amount of gray, processing time, and the particular products used.
It is important to understand what this method can and cannot do. Henna and indigo can color existing gray hair, but they do not restore the pigment-producing cells inside the hair follicle. In other words, they can change the appearance of gray strands, but they cannot stop the biological process that causes new hair to grow gray.
If your goal is healthier, longer-looking hair, the bigger difference comes from consistent hair care. Use a gentle shampoo, condition the lengths of your hair, minimize excessive heat styling, avoid overly tight hairstyles, and protect your hair from unnecessary chemical damage. A balanced diet containing adequate protein, iron, vitamin B12, zinc, and other essential nutrients also supports normal hair growth.
