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!
 
Lovely! I would love to lighten the color for my own hair though.. I know there is a way to mix it somewhere on here
 
SOOOOO PRETTY! I LOVE THE BLACK!

I might try this, I used to be henna head...
 
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.
 
:up: 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!
 
Great results.. your hair is sooo pretty!
 
you reminded me why I need to to another treatment in December.... that black hair looks so nice and healthy!!!
 
Nice,black & thick (love the curls).Greta Job......






Happy Hair Growing!
 
Wow, dark & lovely for sure! And your hair is beautiful straightened and unstraightened. :up:
 
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
 
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.
 
After seeing your results I might take the plung. You did a really nice job...
 
you'll have to dedicate clothes for messy procedures, I have my amla top lol

You got amazing results!! I look forward to seeing your pics after it's developed more!!
