Still using chemical hair colors ?

⛔️Do you know, chemical hair colors contain harmful chemicals like ammonia and hydrogen peroxide which can damage your HAIR and increase GREYS

⛔️Hydrogen peroxide present in chemical hair dyes is going to bleach your hair and it can damage your healthy hair by spreading GREYS.

‘Nilini’ is an all ‘Ayurvedic’ hair coloring kit that helps to add color(dark brown), shine and lustre to hair. Hide those greys effortlessly with our star product.

❌ no bleach, no ammonia, no peroxides. 

This product is inspired from the 𝑴𝒖𝒓𝒂𝒍 𝑨𝒓𝒕 𝒐𝒇 𝑲𝒆𝒓𝒂𝒍𝒂. Centuries ago our ancestors invented natural colors and these colours were used on the walls of the temples, monuments, rocks etc. These colors never faded and is still existing. Even with the rains, extreme weather conditions etc We still see those colors. Shesha Ayurveda’s star product – NILINI is based on this above concept of 𝑴𝒖𝒓𝒂𝒍 𝑨𝒓𝒕 𝒐𝒇 𝑲𝒆𝒓𝒂𝒍𝒂. The selection of ingredients and the highly intricate manufacturing process make Nilini a wonder product.

NO SYNTHETIC CHEMICALS ADDED IN THE ENTIRE MANUFACTURING PROCESS

Note :- The kit contains 4 sachets of 10 G each. Patch Test sample is added to every order. Results last for upto 15-20 days depending on new hair growth. Every 15-20 days re-application required. Each sachet is for single use. not recommended for sensitive or allergic skin or hair color allergy people.

If your hair color is orange, wait for it to turn grey or white. NILINI works best on grey or white hairs.

Note: Color and the aroma of the product varies from batch to batch depending on the ingredient seasonal changes. This is completely normal considering the raw nature of the product. Can go from light green to darkest green from batch to batch. These color variations do not deteriorate the quality of the product in any way. We take great care in sourcing the finest ingredients and ensuring that our products meet the highest standards of quality and effectiveness.

Unlike chemical hair dyes that penetrate the cortex of the hair shaft, henna works by binding to the keratin protein in the outer layer of the hair, known as the cuticle - NILINI is not manufactured using any bleaching agents or ammonia etc which penetrates to hairshaft and works. NILINI is a natural hair color and it works like a natural hair color in coloring only the grey hair and not upcoming hair. NILINI stays upto 15-20 days and then grey starts coming, for new grown hair too, grey starts and user will have to reapply.

⛔️Not for eye lashes

⛔️not recommended for sensitive or allergic skin

Refer to patch test instructions before using

KEY INGREDIENTS

The contents that truly make a difference

Banana Stem

While the banana fruit is the most effective part of the fruit for haircare, you can also extract the juice from the banana stem and use it as a conditioner and hair rinse. Regular application of this can help boost hair growth, and also prevent premature greying.

Coffee Beans

Using coffee for hair, helps stimulate your hair follicles and speeds up hair growth. Caffeine also improves the blood circulation to your scalp, which in turn allows for nutrients to reach your scalp more efficiently. This results in a quicker and healthier hair growth.

Tea Leaves

Black tea contains a high concentration of tannins, a type of polyphenol antioxidant that neutralizes cell-damaging compounds called free radicals. In particular, black tea contains theaflavins and thearubigins, which give it its characteristic dark color. Due to this dark pigment, black tea rinses may give naturally dark hair a temporary boost of color and help reduce the appearance of grey hairs.

Coconut Shell Powder

Coconut shell powder helps soothe the scalp and removes impurities. The deep cleaning of the pores helps the scalp breathe, thus stimulating the healthy growth of hair.

Henna Leaves

Henna has a cooling effect on the scalp. The antifungal and antimicrobial properties of henna help in maintaining the scalp health by fighting against various scalp issues like dandruff, scalp itchiness, etc. It helps in removing impurities from the hair.

Bhringaraj

Maha Bhringraj is an all-in-one hair treatment for hair loss, premature graying, dandruff that restores and nurtures damaged hair back to health.

Pomegranate

Punicic acid, found in pomegranate seeds is known to make your hair follicles stronger and also ensures proper blood circulation to your scalp. This aids in stimulating hair growth by bringing out the natural oils in your hair and preventing hair breakage. The pomegranate oil conditions the hair shaft to reduce dryness and breakage that keep the hair shaft moisturized for a very long time. Hence, moisture reduces frizz, breakage, split ends and single strand knots. Reduces Grey Hair

Aloe Vera

Aloe Vera calms an itchy scalp, deep cleans and moisturizes hair, control frizz etc. Aloe vera also rejuvenates hair, giving it elasticity and preventing breakage

Bibhitaka

Bibhitaki intrinsically showcases anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory properties that helps in treating various scalp and hair infections like folliculitis, itching and dandruff. The iron and potassium present in Bibhitaki balances the deficiency of minerals required for adequate melanin production, thus preventing premature greying of hair.

Hibiscus Leaves

Hibiscus leaves nourishes and conditions hair while restoring the elasticity of strands, thus reducing hair fall. Hibiscus benefits hair by naturally sealing the moisture on the shafts of hair and making it smooth and silky.

Lotus

All parts of lotus can be used for medicinal purposes and the seeds and stems are used in Ayurvedic medicine. The Lotus flower itself is a potent antioxidant, which detoxifies the body, skin and hair and prevents it from free radicals and oxidative stress. Other than this, being rich in nutrients needed by hair are present in this flower and this flower is known to stimulate melanin, the pigment that imparts colour to the skin and hair. It helps to prevent premature graying of hair and even acts as a moisturizing agent for your skin.

Moringa

Vitamins C and E in Moringa help fight off free radicals and reverse the damage they cause. If your grey hair is caused by overexposure to free radicals then Moringa can help counter it. Since moringa contains pterygospermin it acts as anti-bacterial and anti-fungal helping in prevention of dandruff, itchy scalp, psoriasis , eczema and bacterial blisters.

Mandukaparni/ Gotu Kola/ Brahmi

FAQs

NO SYNTHETIC CHEMICALS HAVE BEEN ADDED IN THE ENTIRE MANUFACTURING PROCESS

NILINI dark brown hair colour is intended to color grey hairs to dark brown shade. If you are a NILINI black user, within 2-3 uses yo will see the difference. NILINI dark brown will not color normal black hair to dark brown. Only the grey hair will be colored to darkest Brown colour. Rest of the hair remains unchanged.

Note: Color and the aroma of the product varies from batch to batch depending on the ingredient seasonal changes. This is completely normal considering the raw nature of the product. Can go from light green to darkest green from batch to batch. These color variations do not deteriorate the quality of the product in any way. We take great care in sourcing the finest ingredients and ensuring that our products meet the highest standards of quality and effectiveness.

Ingredients are different. Both are one step hair colours intended to colour grey hairs to brown and black.

NILINI black will convert GREYS to natural black colour & NILINI dark brown will convert GREYS to darkest brown shade. normal black hairs remain unchanged for both products

If you are a avid NILINI Black hair colour user, initially you might not see any difference. But, within 2-3 uses, grey hairs will be  darkest brown shade

We recommend you NOT TO MIX the two. Ingredients are different and proportion is different and purpose is different.

Now, to answer the question- If both are mixed and used - COLOR might be more of a reddish or orange tint . Coverage, performance and longevity will be poor as when mixed, proportion also changes and product will NOT work as expected.

IT WILL NOT WORK. NILINI Dark Brown is intended to colour GREY hair to darkest brown. if you apply the dark brown colour on a normal black hair, It will not work. Hair colour remains unchanged.

Wash your hair using natural shampoo the previous day and make sure there is no oil trace on your hair ( completely dry hair ) before applying NILINI. Use only water to rinse off the hair color. We recommend waiting for 1 day before using any shampoo/ shikakai/ conditioner

100% Natural products can also be allergic to some people. Patch test is a must for everyone who use NILINI irrespective of whether you are generally allergic to natural products or not.  Apply a little quantity on the back of your ear and leave it Watch out for any irritation or redness for 48 hours.  If any redness or irritation occurs, DONT USE THE PRODUCT.

CAUTION : If you have a sensitive skin OR if you have a sensitive scalp - We DONT recommend you to try or use NILINI. Reason being - NILINI is a mix of several Ayurvedic and Natural Herbs and we cannot predetermine how the natural ingredients react on everyone's skin/scalp. You need to be extra cautious when you have sensitive skin or scalp.
SO, IF YOU ARE SOMEONE WITH SENSITIVE SKIN OR SCALP. PLEASE DON'T BUY OR USE NILINI

Hair color longevity depends on a number of factors.

1. 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.
2. 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.
3. For those who wash their hair multiple times a day or week, this means your hair color may fade faster.
4. Avoid sulfates in shampoo and conditioner.
5. Using Hot Styling Tools Without Heat Protection
6. If you have hard water running through your pipes, you might experience faster color fading. Hard water is composed of high amounts of calcium and magnesium, which can wear down hair.

Any kind of hair color natural is to be applied or used from 18 years of age. We recommend the usage of NILINI only after 18 years of age

If you've been a NILINI user, You may continue to use the same.

But if you are a new user and got recently pregnant and introducing NILINI for the first time, we want to make sure that you know what you're getting into.

Every pregnancy is different, and not every woman reacts the same way to every product. Some people are allergic to certain things—even 100% natural things like herbs. During pregnancy, your hormones fluctuate dramatically, which means that even products that are supposed to be safe might not work for you. It's just something to keep in mind as you decide how best to care for your body during this special time in your life.

Our advice? We don't recommend you try our Hair Color during pregnancy. Talk with your obstetrician about any products you're considering using during pregnancy and only take a decision after getting your doctors approval

Mix a 1-2 g of product in water to make a paste consistency and using a cotton earbud or a applicator brush , Apply the sample on the backside of your ear sufficient to cover an area about the size of a coin. Allow it to dry.

Don't wash, cover or touch the patch until 48 hours. Watch out for any irritation, discomfort, itchiness or rashes for next 48 hours. DON'T USE THE PRODUCT IF THERE'S ANY KIND OF DISCOMFORT, RASHES, ALLERGIES OR REACTIONS.

Patch test of 48 hours is highly recomended for anyone who plan to use NILINI irrespective of whether henna or indigo suits you or not ; NILINI is not just made of Henna or Indigo ; it contains an array of several other ingredients too.

Also most importantly— we cannot predetermine whether a particular product will suit everyone. 100% Natural products can also be allergic to some people. Only way to understand whether a product will suit you or not is by performing the patch test Refer to detailed patch test instructions in the inside booklet or patch test section on this page

Usage of chemicals can permanently damage hair. this might also result in color variations. We recommend you perform PATCH TEST as well as STRAND TEST to find out how your hair will react to colors even if its natural hair color.

Strand test would determine the length of time colour need to remain on your chemically treated hair to obtain desired results.

You might also want to visit a Trichologist and take their opinion before performing strand test.[/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title="DOES NILINI CONTAIN BLACK HENNA ?"]Black Henna contains a chemical called paraphenylenediamine (PPD). Shesha Ayurveda NILINI doesn't contain black henna. Our NILINI is PPD free and lab results are attached to the FAQs itself

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

CAUTION : If you have a sensitive skin OR if you have a sensitive scalp - We DONT recommend you to try or use NILINI. Reason being - NILINI is a mix of several Ayurvedic and Natural Herbs and we cannot predetermine how the natural ingredients react on everyone's skin/scalp. You need to be extra cautious when you have sensitive skin or scalp.

SO, IF YOU ARE SOMEONE WITH SENSITIVE SKIN OR SCALP. PLEASE DON'T BUY OR USE NILINI

Good product

No headache which I used to get from the chemical hair color. Good product loved it.

Deepti Tangri
Good.

It’s easy to use. And the dark brown colour is not like old tacky Henna. It is appealing & doesn’t have after effects. For my frizzy hair, it is tough to NOT apply conditioning mask. But it is by far one of the good hair colour substitutes.
