"INDIAN HENNA" Indigo BASMA is a natural hair colour made from 100% basma, or indigo, powder (Indigofera powder). The powder is used together with henna to achieve darker and cooler hair tones.
Basma is a plant-based hair colour that helps create natural brown, chestnut, chocolate and black shades. The product is suitable for natural hair care and Ayurveda-inspired hair colouring.
NET QUANTITY: 100 g
INGREDIENTS (INCI): 100% basma powder (Indigofera powder)
USE: Before colouring, wash the hair and lightly towel-dry it. Use gloves when applying the colour. Mix the required amount of powder with warm water at 60-70 °C until the mixture is smooth. To achieve deeper and more intense shades, it is recommended to let the mixture stand for 1-2 hours, then add warm water and mix again. Apply to the hair, starting from the roots. Processing time is from 20 minutes to 4 hours.
RECOMMENDED PROPORTIONS:
The longer the mixture is kept on the hair, the darker and richer the colour will be. Basma and henna can also be applied to the hair separately, in the given proportions, one after the other. This step-by-step colouring helps achieve cooler shades such as natural light brown, brown and chocolate, without a red or golden sheen.
WARNINGS: It is not recommended to colour the hair with basma alone — always mix it with henna. Henna helps neutralise the bluish-green tone of basma. For external use only. Do not use in case of hypersensitivity to any ingredient. In case of allergic reactions, discontinue use and consult a doctor. Avoid contact with eyes. In case of contact with eyes, rinse thoroughly with water. Keep out of reach of children.
STORAGE: Store at a temperature from +5 ºC to +25 ºC, in a dry, dark place, out of reach of children.

INDIAN HENNA Indigo BASMA 100 g is a plant-based hair colouring powder chosen by people who want a deeper, cooler shade or a darker result when colouring with henna and herbal dyes. In hair colouring, indigo powder is valued because it deposits blue-toned pigment on the hair surface. When used on its own or together with henna, it helps create brown to dark tones depending on the starting hair colour and the colouring method.
Unlike oxidation dyes that rely on stronger chemical reactions inside the hair shaft, indigo-based herbal hair colour tends to coat and bond around the outer layers of the hair. This is why the result often looks more nuanced and individual rather than flat. The final shade depends on:
Indigo, often called basma in traditional hair colouring, has been used for a long time in herbal beauty practices across Asia and the Middle East. People usually choose it to:
It can suit those building a gentler beauty regimen, especially if they prefer powdered botanical hair colour and enjoy a more hands-on colouring process.
This product may be relevant for those with naturally brown or dark hair, for people combining henna and indigo for richer tones, or for anyone experimenting with plant-based hair cosmetics. Because herbal colour develops differently from synthetic dye, a strand test is especially useful before full application.
