I colored my hair w/ Indigo **Pics**

[MsBoinglicious]

It looks really nice and rich. wait till a few more days pass after it oxidizes it will get even darker. Nice job.

I knoooowwww i can't wait! I wonder how black will it get!?! thanks!

Nice color BB. I love indigo. I add a tablespoon of cornstarch diluted in warm water in my indigo recipe for it to adhere to my hair better = no more mess all over the place or me.

Also I never allow my indigo to sit - I add it to my hair immediately after mixing, leave it in my hair for about 2 -2.5 hours, rinse out, and I get very black results.

You know what i started to leave it on longer. When i took the plastic bag off it was still green in some places and blue/black in others. I should have waited until it all changed dark. Maybe next time i will live on a lil bit longer. Thanks!

I really like the black on your hair! I use henna and indigo also. Except I mix my henna and indigo together an apply at the same time.

Looks great, boingboing! I have been getting sick of the red tint to my hair from the henna, and I wanted to try indigo. Seeing your results have helped me decide to take the plunge!

I love this! I have been thinking of going Black for a long time. I've been doing reds/light browns for over a decade so I'm nervous. Wonder if my face will look washed out compared to it. But that depe rich Black is calling me

 

[MsBoinglicious]

Thanks again ladies! I will post another pic in a few days on here, to show the color after it develops more.

Great thread! I've been following my henna treatments with indigo for the 9 months or so. I love love love the solid black stain it leaves. I do agree with the BoingBoing that the combo did loosen my coils, but I don't mind because I know it's only temporary. I also purchased the indigo and followed the instructions given on http://mehandi.com.
