For best results, indigo must be applied to hair that freshly washed. Indigo by itself generally will not dye hair very well and should be used following a henna treatment or mixed with the henna to achieve various shades of brown/auburn to black. A.) Single Step method for henna/indigo for auburn/brown hair Mix henna powder in a bowl with water and a bit of acid, like lemon juice, vinegar or orange juice. Add enough liquid to make it the consistency of pudding. Cover the container with plastic wrap and let it set you see dye release. Once the henna has dye released, in a separate bowl, mix up the desired amount of indigo powder with warm water. Stir until the lumps are gone. Add the just mixed indigo to the henna paste and stir together until well mixed. Immediately apply to freshly washed hair. You may need to add more water as you are working with the paste, as it will thicken as it sits. Wrap head in plastic wrap, then place a shower cap over the top of that. Allow to sit on hair for a minimum of 2 hours. Rinse paste from hair. Do not shampoo for 24 to 48 hours, as the henna/indigo will need time to oxidize. B.) 2 step method for brown to black hair - works best for those trying to cover grey hair. Step One: Mix henna powder in a bowl with water. Add enough liquid to make it the consistency of pudding. Cover the container with plastic wrap and let it set until you see dye release. Once the henna has dye released, apply the henna paste to freshly washed hair. Wrap head in plastic wrap, then place a shower cap over the top of that. Let set for 2 hours then rinse out the henna. Step Two: Place amount of desired dry indigo powder into a bowl. Add enough warm water to the powder to make paste the consistency of pudding. Stir well, until all of the lumps are gone, then immediately apply to the hair. You may need to add more water as you are working with the paste, as it will thicken as it sits. Wrap head in plastic wrap, then place a shower cap over the top of that. Leave the paste on the hair for the following amount of time to achieve the desired colors: Black - leave on for 45 minutes to 1 hour Brown - leave on for 15 to 30 minutes, depending on how deep you want the brown to be. Rinse the paste out.
