Organic Amla Powder (Emblica Officinalis) is often added to henna and indigo blends to tone down herbal hair colors, muting the orange in henna and the brassy-gold in senna. Use in a ratio 1 part Afterglow amla to 3 parts henna, senna, or other herbal hair color. Despite common claims, amla will not prevent or restore the curl-relaxation properties of henna.

Caution

Herbal hair colors with henna and/or indigo are permanent and will not come out with conventional dye removal methods, if at all. Be smart and strand test.

Storage

The powder can be stored for a year in a cool dark place (but not the fridge or freezer!), so long as it is kept in an airtight bag or container. The mud can be kept frozen for 6 months.

The Myth of Curl Preservation

One common misconception is that amla prevents henna from loosening your wave or curl pattern, or that it can restore it once lost. The curl-relaxing properties of henna are not impacted or undone by organic amla powder, and are therefore permanent.

I mixed Amla into my henna color for the first time and the results were wonderful. My hair feels deeply conditioned and the Amla toned down my Fire Genasi color slightly, as expected. Love it!
