For the best results, you must always use both the Gel Colour + Aloe Orange Gel (organic, HPO-free developer) together. When mixing two shades, use gel and developer from both kits in equal proportion.
✔️ Mix gel + developer in equal ratio
✔️ Use only Indus Valley Damage Free Gel Colours
✔️ Do a strand test before application
❌ Don’t use the developer alone or mix with water
❌ Don’t mix with chemical developers
⚠️ Always follow the pack instructions for perfect results

We understand your concern �� If the first application didn’t give full coverage, you can safely reapply after 10–15 days. Our organic, damage-free formula is gentle and nourishing, so it won’t harm your hair.
✔️ Reapply within 2 weeks if needed
✔️ Apply generously on resistant greys
❌ Don’t reapply the next day — give hair time to rest
⚠️ Use enough product and follow the full recommended time for best results

Yes—our organic herbal hair colour works effectively even on extremely resistant grey hair. Some resistant greys may need two close applications (10–15 days apart). This helps train the hair strand to absorb and retain colour naturally. With repeated use, the hair cuticle softens, allowing more uniform, long-lasting grey coverage.

Yes �� One of the best things about Indus Valley Damage Free Gel Hair Colour is that it softens and blends naturally after 2–3 washes. The initial shade may look darker or brighter, but over a few days, it becomes natural, glossy, and even.
✔️ Allow a few washes for the colour to settle
❌ Don’t worry if first-day colour looks intense
⚠️ Strand test helps preview the final shade

We completely understand how frustrating quick colour fade can be ��. Hair colour may fade faster due to frequent shampooing, hot water washes, harsh chemical shampoos, porous or resistant grey hair, choosing a lighter shade, or sweating and pollution exposure.
The good news �� With the right aftercare, colour longevity improves significantly.
✔️ Wash hair only 2–3 times a week
✔️ Use a colour-protect shampoo
✔️ Condition weekly to lock in colour
❌ Avoid clarifying or anti-dandruff shampoos right after colouring
⚠️ Protect freshly coloured hair from direct sunlight

Yes, humidity and rain can make hair colour fade faster, as moisture opens the hair cuticle and allows colour pigments to slip out more easily. Rainy weather can also cause natural seasonal hair fall, which is not caused by hair colour.
✔️ Keep hair covered in heavy humidity or rain
✔️ Use conditioner to seal cuticles
❌ Don’t leave hair damp for long hours
⚠️ Weekly oiling adds a natural protective layer

Yes ✨ You can mix two Indus Valley Damage Free Gel Colours shades to create a custom hair colour tone. For example, Dark Brown + Burgundy gives a warmer brown, while Soft Black + Copper Mahogany creates a deeper mahogany shade.
However, mixed shades are not laboratory-tested, so results may vary.
✔️ Mix equal proportions
✔️ Always do a strand test first
❌ Don’t mix with chemical dyes or skip testing

�� Yes, this is a great choice for first-time users. Indus Valley Damage Free Gel Colours are gentle, natural, and easy to apply, with no ammonia, no PPD, no hydrogen peroxide, and no harsh chemicals.
✔️ Always start with a strand and patch test
✔️ Follow the step-by-step instructions inside the pack
❌ Don’t rush into chemical dyes if you want safe, organic-looking results

Patchy or uneven hair colour can be frustrating ��, but it’s fixable. This usually happens due to uneven application or using too little product. To correct it, reapply colour on lighter or patchy areas within 7–10 days. Use a brush for precise application on missed greys, apply section by section, and comb through for even coverage. ❌ Don’t rush or stretch small quantities. Apply generously for uniform results.

�� You can apply hair colour using gloved hands, a brush, or a comb—each has its role.
✔️ Brush: Best for precise application on roots, crown, and temples
✔️ Hands (with gloves): Quick and easy for full coverage
✔️ Comb: Helps spread colour evenly after application

Yes ✅ You should avoid serums, sprays, gels, and leave-in conditioners before hair colouring. Styling products can coat the hair shaft and block pigment absorption, leading to uneven results. Always colour on clean, product-free hair.
✔️ Wash away all styling products before colouring
❌ Don’t apply colour on hair coated with serums or sprays
⚠️ Keep hair styling-product free for 24 hours before colouring

Worried about uneven hair colour results? ��
A simple check: your hair should feel fully coated from roots to ends, with no dry patches. Always apply generously, especially on greys, and use a brush for precise coverage.

Worried about leaving hair colour on for too long? �� Keeping it beyond the recommended application time does not improve grey coverage. Instead, it may make the shade darker than expected and can sometimes dry the scalp. Our herbal hair colours are designed to work best within the suggested time, when pigments bond properly. Follow pack instructions and rinse thoroughly on time.

Just had a keratin, straightening, or nanoplasty treatment? �� Yes, our damage-free, herbal hair colour is generally safe to use after these treatments and is much gentler than chemical dyes. Since smoothing treatments coat the hair shaft, the colour may take slightly longer to settle initially, but with 2–3 applications, the shade blends naturally and looks even.

Your health and comfort matter most ��. Many people ask if hair colour is safe after cancer, chemotherapy, or radiation. Our ammonia-free, hydrogen peroxide-free, herbal hair colour is designed to be gentle, and many cancer survivors have used it safely. However, cancer treatments can make the scalp highly sensitive. Always consult your oncologist and do a mandatory patch test before colouring. Welcome to Indus Valley, your one-stop destination for natural, organic, and eco-friendly skincare and haircare products. Every formulation is designed with pure ingredients, ensuring your skin and hair stay healthy, glowing, and nourished—without the risk of harsh chemicals.

Yes �� Our organic, herbal hair colours are safe and suitable for all hair types — curly, textured, fine, coarse, and resistant hair. The gentle formulation adapts well to different textures without damaging the hair shaft.
• How it performs on different hair types:
✔️ Fine hair: coats gently without weighing hair down
✔️ Curly & textured hair: maintains softness and definition
✔️ Coarse or resistant greys: may require 2–3 initial applications for deeper pigment penetration and even coverage

Yes, you can use it ��. Our hair colours are mild, herbal-based, and enriched with aloe vera, jojoba oil, amla, sunflower oil, and other soothing ingredients. They are designed to be gentle on sensitive scalps and do not cause scalp dryness or dandruff.
• Why it’s scalp-friendly:
✔️ Herbal, gentle formulation
✔️ Soothing & nourishing ingredients
✔️ Helps maintain scalp comfort during colouring
✔️ Suitable for people prone to sensitivity

hair fall can feel alarming ��. Our hair colour is free from ammonia, hydrogen peroxide, and harsh chemicals commonly linked to damage. It’s enriched with aloe vera, henna, and amla, which help nourish and strengthen hair. The colour does not damage hair follicles — it gently coats the hair strand.
What to do next:
✔️ Use a mild, sulphate-free shampoo
✔️ Avoid hot water and excessive styling
✔️ Follow up with nourishing conditioners or masks
If hair fall feels excessive or prolonged, consult a dermatologist.

This can occasionally happen if the colour is left on for longer than advised or applied on a dry or sensitive scalp. Gently rinse with cool water, then calm the scalp using aloe vera gel, coconut oil, or a soothing hair spa mask. Always wash with a mild, sulphate-free shampoo to reduce further sensitivity.
• Scalp-Friendly Dos & Don’ts:
✔️ Apply only on a clean, oil-free scalp
✔️ Follow up with a post-colour conditioner to soothe the scalp
❌ Avoid scratching, as it can worsen irritation
❌ Do not apply colour on a freshly oiled scalp

Yes — Indus Valley Damage Free Gel Colours are safe for both men and women, across all adult age groups (16 years and above).

We use 100% plant-based glycerin only — never animal-derived.
✨ Why it matters:
✔️ Keeps our hair colours vegan & cruelty-free
✔️ Naturally moisturises and conditions hair
✔️ Supports ethical, plant-based purity

�� Our hair colours use plant-based pigments, not harsh chemical dyes.
The key natural pigments include:
✔️ Henna – natural colouring & conditioning
✔️ Amla – supports pigment depth & hair health
✔️ Cassia – improves shine & strength
✔️ Manjistha – enhances natural colour tones
✔️ Safer colour pigments – used in regulated, safe amounts for proper grey coverage

✨ Yes — Indus Valley Damage Free Gel Colours are 100% VEGAN and PETA-certified cruelty-free.
✔️ No animal testing
✔️ No animal-derived ingredients
✔️ Ethical, conscious & safe hair colouring

Our hair colour is 100% free from ethanolamine, resorcinol, and alcohol — making it a safer choice for sensitive scalp, dry hair, and damaged hair.
✨ Instead of harsh chemicals, we use natural conditioning ingredients like:
✔️ Aloe Vera – soothes and hydrates the scalp
✔️ Jojoba Oil – nourishes hair and reduces dryness
✔️ Wheat Germ Extract – strengthens hair and improves texture

Indus Valley Damage-Free Gel Colours are completely free from added Hydrogen Peroxide, making them safe for regular use and gentle on the hair cuticle.
However, during the colouring process, a naturally occurring, extremely mild and safe form of peroxide may be generated through oxidation. This helps activate pigments and improve grey coverage. ✔️ This process is USDA-approved and accepted by leading European regulatory bodies.
✨ No harsh peroxide. No cuticle damage. Just safe, effective colour.

No ��. Indus Valley Damage-Free Gel Hair Colours are completely free from metallic salts and heavy metals like lead, mercury, or barium.,
Some low-quality dyes use these metals to create instant colour, but they can damage the hair shaft and may be harmful to health.
Our formula uses plant-based pigments and herbal conditioners to deliver colour safely and gently.
Choose colour that cares — not shortcuts that harm.

Grey and white hair can be more coarse and less absorbent, so a little extra care helps the colour settle better. No chemical pre-treatment is needed.,
✨ For best results:
• Wash hair with a mild shampoo before colouring
• Do not oil or condition before application
• For resistant greys, use a warm towel wrap for a few minutes to help open the cuticle

We follow the same international shade nomenclature used by popular brands like L’Oréal, but our formula is herbal and chemical-free. Because it contains no Ammonia, Peroxide, or harsh chemicals, the result may look softer and more natural compared to bold chemical colours.

If your Copper Mahogany hair colour fades quickly, you’re not alone. Warmer shades like copper and mahogany use lighter, delicate pigments that can wash out faster—especially on resistant grey or porous hair and with frequent washing.
Unlike chemical dyes, Indus Valley Damage-Free Gel Hair Colours contain no Ammonia, Peroxide (HPO), or PPD, making them gentler on hair. Because they don’t use strong fixers, regular application is key.
✨ With 2–3 consistent uses, the colour builds depth, lasts longer, and looks more natural.

Many people choose Dark Brown hair colour but find it looks darker, almost black. This happens because herbal pigments react differently on grey and light hair, where darker tones absorb more strongly. Since this colour contains no Hydrogen Peroxide, Ammonia, or bleach, it does not lighten natural dark hair. Instead, it deposits colour, which may appear deeper initially.
✨ With time and repeated application, the brown tones soften and balance out, revealing a true dark brown shade.

Our herbal-based hair colours last up to 28 shampoos (approximately 6-8 weeks) depending on your hair type, wash frequency, shade, shampoo used, and heat/sun exposure. Darker shades like black and dark brown tend to last longer than lighter ones. Since our colours are free from bleach, ammonia, PPD, and other harsh chemicals, they fade gradually and gently—no harsh regrowth lines.

Our hair colour products are dermatologically tested, certified organic, and 100% free from harsh chemicals like peroxide, ammonia, PPD, and resorcinol. The vast majority of our customers use them safely without any reactions. That said, everyone’s skin is different. Even natural ingredients and herbs can cause sensitivity for a small number of individuals. That’s why we strongly recommend a patch test 48 hours before first use, without exception.

On black or dark brown hair, the Burgundy shade blends with your natural hair pigment. As a result, it may appear deep brown or almost black, with a subtle Burgundy shine visible in bright sunlight. On grey or lighter hair strands, Burgundy reflects more clearly and shows richer reddish tones. With 2–3 consistent applications, the reddish pigments layer gradually, and the Burgundy tone starts showing more vibrantly across the hair. This is how 100% natural, non-bleaching formulations work—gentle, progressive, and damage-free.

Because our colours are 100% natural and organic, the final result depends on factors like your starting hair shade, hair porosity, and percentage of grey. For example, the same burgundy shade appears deeper on black hair and brighter on lighter hair. To avoid surprises, we always recommend a strand test. Mix a small amount of colour and apply it to a hidden section of hair, then compare the result with our official shade card. For extra confidence, you can also share a photo of your hair with our customer support team and get personalized shade recommendations tailored just for you.

Pro Tips for Long-Lasting Colour:
✔ Wash with cold or lukewarm water only—hot water opens cuticles and fades colour faster
✔ Use Indus Valley Colour Protect Shampoo, specially made for colour-treated hair
✔ Apply Hair Ultima Spa Mask 1–2 times a week to nourish hair and seal colour
✔ Oil your hair once or twice weekly to lock in pigments
✔ Limit heat styling tools like straighteners and curlers

✔ Avoid daily shampooing—use dry shampoo between washes
✔ Follow a weekly routine: gentle wash + deep conditioning + light oiling

If any reaction occurs, stop the application immediately and rinse your hair and scalp thoroughly with cool running water. Apply pure aloe vera gel or any soothing remedy you usually trust. If symptoms like redness, swelling, or irritation persist, please consult a dermatologist immediately and keep the product pack handy for reference. Allergic reactions are rare with our natural formulations, but your safety always comes first. That’s why we strongly recommend doing a patch test before every application, even if you’ve used the product before.
