  • Hello I was wondering if I can put cinnamon in aswell?

  • @Dhamiltonj Good question. I've never done that, not sure what it would do to the hair. If you try it let me know.

  • salams sister. Are we religiously allowed to use indigo? i learnt that it is usually synthetic

  • @nimmi3r Salam. The use of indigo to dye the hair brown is halal. You can also use store bought dyes to color your hair (as long as they're not black, dying the hair black is haram. The indigo I sell is 100% natural and from the plant itself.

  • I'm in Australia and I got this product from a local health food store here.

    Its called Natural Henna Herb Colour - Hair Black Tint. It says the ingredients are :Henna leaves (indigo fera leaves).

    It turned my hair a lighter shade than my normal brown and sort of like a copper.. Can you give me and info to why that is?

  • @MissLoveAndLight I am not sure why your hair turned that color. Did you use any other dye on your hair before you used the henna/indigo?

  • @plutoice21 It's only haram for people who have gone grey with age. We may dye it brown or any other colour, just not black.

  • Do you know how one would use indigo to get the blue color or a blue-black color rather than the moldy mossy blue-green color?

  • can you dye your hair with henna if you have black hair

  • I have dyed black hair and i need to cover greys. what do i have to do?

  • my mom said that theres a henna that makes ur hair really really straighten

  • this is a serious question: if dying the hair black is haram, what if you are born with natural black hair? also if an old woman with balck hair is turning gray and dyes her gray hairs black is that haram too?

  • @FreeHandMehndi OMG if you dye your hair black that is haram.hahaha and what will happent if you are born with natural black hair ???? don't be silly please

  • ohh you stuppid Muslim World

  • yes you have to henna it first for hours, it will be reddish or copper,, then rinse it with water out then put in the indigo paste in to get the browns
