Henna Hair Dye Powder for Hair Colour - INT Pack

For many people searching for henna hair dye or “natural henna hair dye”, henna is the starting point for a more herbal-style colour routine. Spierb Henna Powder is a cosmetic, single-ingredient henna made from Lawsonia inermis leaves, milled and sifted so it blends into a soft, even paste when mixed with water. On this page we focus on henna for hair, not body-art cones or decorative mehndi designs.

Used as a standalone henna hair dye powder, it can give bright copper-red and auburn-style tones on lighter or uncoloured hair. On naturally darker hair, henna usually adds a softer red glow that is more visible in the light than in the shade. Because base shade, previous dyes and hair condition all matter, results vary from person to person, so a strand test is the most reliable way to preview the colour.

Many people are particularly interested in henna hair dye for grey hair to bring warm tones back to white or silver strands. Pure henna often turns individual grey hairs a copper or orange-red tone while blending with the rest of the hair. With regular, thoughtful use you can build a repeatable pattern that suits you, but henna will not behave exactly like a synthetic permanent dye. Our job is to give you a consistent pure henna hair dye powder and clear guidance so you can design your own routine.

If your goal is a deeper shade, Henna works naturally with Spierb Indigo Powder for hair. Many herbal users follow a henna-first, indigo-second routine, or carefully balanced henna–indigo mixes, to move towards rich brown or darker tones. In the Spierb Learn Hub, you’ll find practical articles on henna–indigo timing, ratios and layering so you can experiment with structure instead of guessing.

Henna does not have to be used only for full, long colour sessions. A shorter henna hair mask on the lengths can offer a more gentle way to refresh tone or enjoy the ritual. Because this is a single-ingredient powder, you choose how strong, how often and how long your henna applications should be, adjusting as you learn what works for your hair.

Always perform a patch test and a strand test before your first full application. See “Good to know” on your product page for simple methods.

For full-head henna hair dye

1. Wash your hair with a regular shampoo and rinse well, avoiding heavy conditioners or oils immediately before colouring.
   
2. Towel dry until the hair is damp but not dripping.
   
3. Add 3–6 tablespoons of Spierb Henna Powder to a clean, non-metal bowl, adjusting for hair length and thickness.
   
4. Slowly pour in warm (not boiling) water while stirring until you have a smooth, yoghurt-like henna paste with no dry pockets.
   
5. Cover the bowl and let the paste rest for about 20–30 minutes to encourage colour release, especially if you are focusing on henna hair dye for grey hair.
   
6. Put on gloves and divide your hair into small sections; apply the paste from roots to ends until each section is evenly coated.
   
7. Gather the hair and cover it with a shower cap or wrap to keep the paste moist and in place.
   
8. Leave on for 1–3 hours, checking a small hidden strand after the first hour to see how the shade is developing on your hair.
   
9. Rinse thoroughly with plenty of lukewarm water until the paste is fully removed; finish with conditioner if desired and style as usual.
   

Henna colour usually oxidises and deepens slightly over the next 24–48 hours, so wait until then before judging the final shade.

For use with Indigo Powder (darker routines)

1. Complete your henna step as described above and rinse fully, then gently towel dry the hair.
   
2. Prepare a fresh paste of Spierb Indigo Powder for hair according to its directions.
   
3. Apply the indigo paste as a second step if you are aiming for darker brown or deeper tones; cover and leave on for the recommended time.
   
4. Rinse and condition as usual, then allow 24–48 hours for the combined henna–indigo colour to settle.
   
5. For suggested ratios and timing options, see the henna–indigo routine guides in the Spierb Learn Hub.
