Henna and Indigo Mix for Dark Brown/Black Hair
If you want a stronger, longer-lasting natural color, try mixing henna and indigo powders. Henna imparts a reddish tint, while indigo deepens the color to brown or black.
Mix henna powder with warm water and apply to hair; rinse after 1-2 hours.
Follow up with an indigo paste application; rinse after 1 hour.
This method requires care and patch testing for allergies but provides a vibrant natural dye alternative.
