Did you know that hair colouring is not a recent phenomenon? Yes, that’s true. It is a centuries-old phenomenon from an ancient time when people used to colour their hair using natural or plant-based dyes such as Henna or Indigo. You must remember how our grandparents used to apply Henna on their hair to colour their hair naturally. But have you ever wondered why natural Henna has been so popular as a natural hair colour? It is because of its unique antioxidants and conditioning properties that not only provide damage-free hair colouration, but also keep your hair nourished and conditioned to prevent further damages.
In this blog, we will enlighten you with the remarkable benefits of bio-organic henna colour (apart from hair colouring) to understand why it is the safest natural hair colour option that you must choose, if you still haven’t. Let’s begin.
Why Choose Natural Henna Powder over Chemical Hair Dyes?
Henna leaves are used to make natural henna powder due to their ample nutrients and antioxidants properties. Unlike other chemical hair dyes available in the market, it is a rich source of vitamin E, fatty acids and antioxidants like Tannins, Catechins, Phenolics and Flavonoids that make it a healthy and damage-free hair colour option for all hair and skin types.
5 Remarkable Benefits of Organic Henna Powder for Healthy Hair
The antioxidants and nutrients that come in organic henna colour strengthen and nourish the hair follicles preventing hair damage and hair fall problems.
1. Nourishes the scalp to combat dandruff
Indus Valley Natural Henna Powder has a calming effect on the scalp. Its antibacterial and antifungal properties cleanse the scalp off bacterial infestations and dandruff.
If you have a severe dandruff or scalp itchiness issue, you must apply natural henna after mixing it with a few drops of lemongrass oil twice a month. It will not only nourish your scalp, but also reduce your dandruff to a great extent.
2. Promotes hair growth, defends against hair fall
As mentioned earlier, natural henna powder is a rich source of antioxidants like Tannins, Catechins, Phenolics and Flavonoids which strengthen and stimulate hair growth. The nutrients available in henna powder nourish the hair follicles to improve hair texture and quality, ultimately reducing hair fall and hair breakage and promoting natural hair growth.
3. Reduces premature greying of hair
Henna is a natural hair colour that effectively covers the grey strands by giving them a natural shade of red or orange, depending upon your hair colour and texture. But apart from covering your early greys, the antioxidants and phytochemicals present in natural henna powder also help slow down the process of premature greying so you can enjoy your natural hair colour without further greying for a longer period of time.
4. Regulates natural oil secretion
Sebum is the natural oil secreted by our scalp to maintain the moisture level in our hair. But in case of excess sebum production, you can start feeling greasiness and itching in your hair, which can be regulated with the application of bio-organic henna powder.
Regular application of bio-organic henna powder regulates sebum production and also removes excess sebum accumulation.
5. Conditions and repairs damaged hair
The natural nutrients and vitamins present in bio-organic henna colour help repair damaged hair too caused by excessive use of chemicals or heat products. It has natural conditioning properties that make your hair smooth, shiny and vibrant after every application without any side effects or damages. It causes no allergies so is also suitable for those with hypersensitive or allergy-prone skin.
