Like Henna (lawsonia inermis) Indigo (indigofera tinctoria) is also a herb. By mixing the two you can get different colors in your hair.

To get brown color:
Mix natural henna powder in lemon juice or warm water. Allow it to sit overnight. Next morning take some indigo powder and mix it with warm water. After 15 min. mix both mixtures together. If you add more indigo the shade will become darker. Apply this paste on your entire hair. Use a shower cap and leave it for one hour or more. Rinse the hair well and shampoo. For the next two days you can see the color change fully.
