How Henna is Colored
The line of Henna offered by Mountain Rose Herbs is made exclusively with Lawsonia inermis, other botanical ingredients are included for the purpose of creating the many different shades which we have to offer.
Mountain Rose Herbs Henna is colored using the following botanical combinations which are combined during manufacturing.....
Lawsonia inermis: Red
Lawsonia inermis and Indigofera sp.: Black, Burgundy, Dark Brown, Medium Brown, Mahogany, and Sherry
Lawsonia inermis, Indigofera sp., and Cassia obovata: Copper and Light Brown
Lawsonia inermis, Cassia obovata, and Chamomile: Strawberry
The Chamomile and Cassia obovata are used to lighten Henna colors, and Indigofera sp. is used to darken some of the Henna colors. Indigo is a natural shrub in the legume family that thrives in dry and almost poor conditions. To date most of it is commercially grown in India, but the Chinese and other Southeast Asian countries are growing it with much success. There is a fabulous profile of it on Botanical.com, please see..... http://botanical.com/botanical/mgmh/i/indigo05.html
But we should point out that this published material is over 75 years old and in that time there have been several more introduced Indigo varieties that are being employed for coloring reasons. For a more recent profiles, please see....
