  2. For better results add one teaspoon each (5 grams) of organic Amla, Bhringraj, Fenugreek & Hibiscus powders to this paste and mix till all herbs are infused fully.
  3. Leave it soaked overnight.

Day 1:

In the morning, apply the Henna paste to your hair and leave it on for at least 45 minutes.

Wash your hair with warm water to ensure all henna particles are washed off completely.

Day 2

  2. Apply the paste to your hair and leave it on for at least 45 minutes.
  3. Wash your hair with lukewarm water to ensure all Indigo particles are washed off

Furthermore, following this three-day ritual will promote better hair & scalp health ensuring that premature hair fall & greying are reduced considerably.
