Hair color longevity depends on a number of factors.
- First and foremost, you should always leave your hair color for at least 90 minutes before washing it off. This will allow the product to fully set and achieve the best results.
- You should also make sure that the consistency of NILINI paste is not too watery when mixing it. In addition, we recommend that you only use water as an ingredient in your hair color paste and avoid using any other powders or products like ground henna or indigo etc.

First of all , Please note – ANY HAIR COLOR needs to be applied using a applicator or comb and not using bare hands. One of the ingredient of NILINI is heated Coconut Shell powder.
Its absolutely NORMAL to see stain if you apply NILINI using bare hands- the stain will be there..it will only go after a day when you wash using shampoo the next day of NILINI application.
Generalizing this using an example from our nature itself: — any raw turmeric / kasturi manjal yellow —please mix and apply on your hands- stain remains. It will only go after a day or several washes. Yellow stain is not because it has some chemical in it. It’s natural property of turmeric to cause stains
Similarly, NILINI is a blend of several ayurvedic ingredients that can delivers dark brown color to grey hair. All ingredients when mixed in water and made a paste, it constitutes the color. If you use using bare hands and complain of stain, we can’t do anything but, only make you understand that’s it’s pretty normal for it to happen like that. coconut shell powder or charcoal which leaves a stain on your hand if u apply using bare hands when u apply initially ; on the day of first wash after using NILINI ; we advice customers to not use shampoos ; that day too, few might see slightly stain towel when hair is towel dried ; It’s very natural for coconut shell powder to leave that slight stain ; It goes off next day when u wash using shampoo.
We can assure that no synthetic chemicals have been added to NILINI. LAB results can be checked on Ist section of FAQ
