how to apply indigo powder - #23906
I am really curious about how to apply indigo powder. A few weeks ago, I decided to ditch the harsh chemical dyes for my hair since they were making my scalp really itchy and dry. A friend suggested indigo powder, saying it’s a natural alternative that works wonders. I got some from a local shop, but now I’m kinda confused. I read that I can mix it with henna for the best results, but how exactly do you apply indigo powder? Like, do I need to prep my hair in a certain way before applying? Should it be clean or dirty? And how long should I leave it on? My hair is pretty dark already but I want that rich color everyone keeps talking about. The packaging says to mix it with water but doesn’t give clear steps. Plus, I heard there are different methods, some people even add oils or lemon juice?! I just wanna get it right without ending up with a weird mess or green hair!! Any tips or experience with how to apply indigo powder would really help. Thank you!
