Indigofera Tinctoria
Indigofera tinctoria, also called true indigo, has a long history of use as a textile dye and a medicine for centuries in Southeast Asia and India. It has been called ‘the kings of dyes’ due to its deep blue color, resistance to fading when exposed to day light and the wide range of colors that can be obtained by combining it with other natural dyes.
When combined with henna, it is a natural hair dye that covers white and gray hair naturally while achieving different shades of brown, thanks to its bluish shades.
Indigofera tinctoria has anti-bacterial effect and has been used in medicinal remedies.

The anti-fungal and anti-bacterial properties found in acacia concinna can be used to treat dandruff problems. It also nourishes the scalp, and prevents dryness and itching.
