Natural, pure Cassia powder is a wonderful and safe, chemical free botanical hair dye. It’s an Ayurvedic herb and will leave your hair shiny, conditioned and healthy. The Cassia plant contains a natural golden dye that bonds to the protein in hair and will brighten your blonde or grey hair. It will not color or lighten darker shades but is a great natural conditioning treatment.
Achieve beautiful shades of blonde, strawberry blonde, and reds by adjusting your cassia with other botanical herbs such as Indigo, Amla, Cassia or Henna. Cassia will keep your hair soft and shiny!
