Organic hair colour is safe for skin, good for environment and looks nice too 

The moment a person turns 35, one starts worrying about those grey strands that start popping up with unfailing regularity. Having said so, in today's era, many young people too have grey hair because of their stressful lives. Besides, many youngsters take to hair colour as a statement of style. In all such cases, salon and parlour visits have become a way of life. Markets are full of big brands and multinational companies promoting their products with gusto. Inorganic colour gives you an instant makeover. However, synthetic colour can be risky as it can adversely affecting your health. The way forward is to take to a bunch of herbal colours which are now flooding the markets.

By herbal colour we don't mean just Henna. Many of us don't appreciate the rich orange colour that it leaves behind. However, now there are hair colour products available that give us healthy and rich black-brown colour while still using Henna powder. How is that possible, you may wonder? Well, the trick lies in using Indigo powder along with Henna to give us a desired hair shade that Indians favour. We have curated a list of such products that are available online.
