Indigo

[Tootuff]

Hi Ladies,

I dyed my hair black on Sunday using indigo and it turned out really nice. I didn't use all of the indigo that I mixed and I am wondering if I can reuse it later if I keep it refrigerated? How long will it last if so?

TIA

I've heard to throw away the leftover Indigo. Not sure why, but that's what I've read. erplexed As for Henna you can freeze it. But maybe some others that are more experienced w/ it will come on and give their food for thoughts.

Yes, you're right.

"Do not freeze your indigo powder. That will kill it. Keep your indigo powder in a dark drawer. You cannot save leftover indigo mix. It will demise within one hour."
