Hair Care and Conditioning Pack

Ayurvedic hair care and conditioning pack

This Ayurvedic hair care pack combines six traditional hair powders with lemon peel: amla, shikakai, multani mitti, khus, neem and reetha.

Together they cleanse the scalp and condition the hair. We recommend using it once a week, especially for dry hair or hair previously coloured with chemical dyes.

What each ingredient does

• Amla: conditions and adds shine.
• Shikakai and reetha: traditional natural cleansers that wash gently.
• Multani mitti: a fine clay that draws out excess oil.
• Khus: adds a cooling, earthy fragrance.
• Neem: a traditional ingredient in Indian hair care.
• Lemon peel: adds a fresh scent.

How to use

1. Mix the powder with warm water into a smooth paste.
2. Apply to wet hair, massaging gently into the scalp and through the lengths.
3. Leave for 15 to 20 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with warm water.

Use once a week, in place of your usual shampoo and conditioner.

Before natural hair dye

The Ayurvedic hair care pack contains no dye, so it is a good way to prepare hair before henna or indigo. Clean, conditioned hair takes up natural dye more evenly. Leave a day or two between using the pack and colouring.

Good to know

• Do a patch test first if you have sensitive skin.
• Keep the paste away from the eyes.
• Rinse well, as the clay and powders can leave a fine residue.

Who is it for?

The Ayurvedic hair care pack suits anyone who wants a natural alternative to shampoo, and anyone moving from chemical dyes to henna and other plant dyes. It can be used on all hair types.

Storage

Keep the pouch sealed in a cool, dry, dark place.
