Lustrous Henna®

Beautiful Hair LOVES these Naturally Healthy Ingredients

Beautiful Hair Loves Natural Cleansing

Reetha Fruit (Soapnut) contains saponins which are a natural surfactant; used for washing for thousands of years by native peoples in Asia as well as Native Americans. Besides containing excellent cleansing properties, it is known to keep hair and skin soft

Amla Fruit is wonderful cleansing agent for both the skin and hair. It imparts luster to hair and protects from dandruff, also helps prevent premature graying. Amla stimulates growth of hair on the scalp, and strengthens the hair roots. Amla extract in the shampoo does not deposit any color on the hair and can be used by everyone alike. Amla extract helps replace the nourishment lost by hair gels, chemical hair color and hair spray.

Beautiful Hair Loves Natural Moisture

Wheat germ oil has emollient properties that add moisture and suppleness to hair. It helps eliminates excessive dryness. It contains vitamin E, a natural preservative that also adds moisture to hair. Additionally, it contains a B-vitamin complex: B1, B2, B3, and B6. These vitamins help increase circulation to the scalp and thicken hair.

Beautiful Hair Loves Hair Growth

Shikakai is known to stop hair loss and promote natural hair growth by nourishing the scalp at the glandular level. It also can strengthen hair roots. (This is good news for anybody transitioning from a chemical perm or relaxer to natural hair). It is rich in vitamin C and vitamin D, along with other nutrients that nourish the hair follicles and promote natural hair growth. It can be used by itself or mixed with other natural ingredients in powder form, along with water to form a paste that is then applied to the hair

Natural Hair Care Shampoo from Ancient Times

Natural Hair Care is Ancient and Effective

-not a “Revolutionary New Concept”

Today, it’s all too common to view infomercials on TV and online ads that promote 'natural' hair care products and promise to produce “revolutionary results” for all hair types. While these products might be effective, they usually come with 1) a relatively high price tag and 2) are not totally, 100% natural hair care products.

So, what’s wrong with truly ancient botanicals for natural hair care -if they've been proven to work- for literally centuries? Let’s ignore the modern hype and get back to what really works for healthy hair:

Lustrous Henna® Dry Shampoo Powder is a mixture of the finest ingredients: Hibiscus rosa-sinensis, Phaseolus Aureus, Sapindas Trifoliatus, Andro Pogon Muricatus, Accacia Concinna, Azaduacha Indica, Acalypha Hispida, Santanum Album, Lawsonia Inermis. These ingredients have been used since ancient times to cleanse, condition, moisturize and create strong, supple and healthy hair.  

Lustrous Henna® Dry Shampoo Powder is an all-in-one, totally natural conditioning shampoo that cleanses without suds full of harsh lather. It is sulfate-free and preservative-free. The mixture of botanical ingredients permits gentle cleaning, nourishing and strengthening of follicles to grow healthy hair. Additionally, the herbal ingredients soften and treat the hair and deliver the following benefits: fights against dandruff, helps repair split ends, prevents hair loss, and helps cure scalp problems. It can be used on all hair types; men and women.

Natural Hair Care Products Need Not be Expensive

Although Lustrous Henna® Dry Shampoo Powder is a conditioning shampoo made from the finest quality botanical ingredients, it is extremely affordable. The current price per 100 gram package is only $6.99. This added benefit helps to maintain a regular natural hair care routine; all at a fraction of the price of so-called all-in-one shampoo ‘revolutionary’ hair care products that are not totally natural. Your healthy hair remains pampered and becomes the 'mane' attraction you desire.

Lustrous Henna® Shampoo Powder Healthy Hair Reviews

“Love it. I quit using shampoo a few years ago and only wish I had never used shampoo! I have been washing my hair with Castile soap which leaves my thin and fine hair with more manageability. This henna shampoo leaves my hair with even more manageability and shine too.” –Christine L., South Pasadena, CA, USA.

“I use the shampoo often. The preparation is easy, as well as the application, both are administered by my beautician. She is also pleased with the results.” – Charlotte T., Pikesville, MD, USA.

 “I am very happy with the service and the quality of the product.

Deen, Toronto, Canada

Natural Hair -What is Lustrous Henna Hair Dye?

Lustrous Henna® is an All-Natural Henna Hair Dye

-in a variety of natural hair shades

Once upon a time when modern day chemical concoctions were not available, henna was the desired herb use to beautify hair and skin, however, the choice of color was limited: bright orange-red. Yikes!

Today, there is Lustrous Henna® hair dye. It's a totally plant-based, natural hair dye. Lustrous Henna® is made by combining pure henna with natural botanical extracts via modern technology. It comes in various shades including a lovely shade of red hair color. No more bright red hair! Unlike traditional henna hair dye, Lustrous Henna® hair dye comes in more than ten natural hair color shades. It's much easier to apply and has a quicker dye release than traditional plain pure henna hair dye.

• Lustrous Henna® contains numerous benefits: men and women can use it • blocks UV sun damage • Protects against split ends • Adheres to hair beautifully • Looks like your natural hair shade • color fades gradually and doesn’t create ugly white/gray lines with growth • conditions and protects hair, instead of stripping hair from the natural protein it needs to stay healthy and grow • contain herbs that have therapeutic values, will heal not harm hair like chemical dye • does not penetrate in the hair shaft to cause dry brittle, hair • makes hair glossy, shiny and of course, lustrous.

 Lustrous Henna® contains the following ingredients (the order in which the ingredients are listed on each pack varies from one shade to another):  Lawsonia inermis, Indigofera tinctoria, Isatis tintoria, Coffea arabica, Rubia tinctoria, Bocopa monniera, Eclipta prostrada, Acacia concinna, Trigonella foenumgraecum. 

Lustrous Henna® Does Not Contain Chemical Dyes

Chemical Dyes first damage the outer layer then fills the cavity and stays in the hair shaft, is also a permanent dye. Chemical Dyes thin the hair which reduces the strength of hair shaft whereas, Lustrous Henna®, thickens and nourishes your hair shaft while increasing its strength.

Lustrous Henna® should not be compared with Chemical Dyes effects, as they totally differ in the mechanism of dying. Lustrous Henna® gives coating on your hair shaft, and remains on hair shaft, as a Semi-Permanent Natural Dye. Lustrous Henna® hair dye is nontoxic and contains no chemicals, such as Para-phenlenediamine (PPD), ammonia, peroxide, or other synthetic dyes. 

Natural hair is not only left with a radiant color but it's conditioned by the pure henna and other botanical ingredients. Lustrous Henna® hair dye also is appropriately named -because hair is conditioned- and the natural hair color looks and feels soft and supple.

Modern Living vs. Traditional Henna Hair Dye Application

Traditional henna application can take several hours, sometimes a full day to achieve the desired results. This is because you must wait hours for the hair dye to release after mixing the powder. Then wait longer after application of the hair dye for complete henna hair color results.

Even though pure henna by itself is a natural hair dye, solely using pure henna for hair dye produces a red hair shade that is not very attractive, on most complexions. Traditional henna application generally produces a bright, bright red hair! Actually, the hair dye produces a red-orange or orange-red color (take your pick). Do you really want bright red-orange hair? 

Henna Hair Dye Application Made Easier with Lustrous Henna®

The traditional henna application is no longer a tedious waiting game. The quicker application process of Lustrous Henna® hair dye is a real time saver when compared to traditional henna application method. It usually takes -only about 90 minutes- from start to finish. Lustrous Henna® is easy to apply: just boil, mix and apply for beautiful color. Now that's pure henna application made easier.

Dandruff –What is It? How to Get Rid of it Naturally.

Dandruff Defined

Short definition:  "Flaky dead skin that appears on the scalp, eyebrows or around the hairline, ears or nose; range from small and white to large, greasy and yellow.

Long definition: “Dandruff is the shedding of dead skin cells from the scalp. Dandruff should not be confused with a simple dry scalp. As skin cells die a small amount of flaking is normal; about 487,000 cells/cm2 get released normally after detergent treatment. Some people, however, experience an unusually large amount of flaking either chronically or as a result of certain triggers, up to 800,000 cells/cm2, which can also be accompanied by redness and irritation.

As the epidermal layer continually replaces itself, cells are pushed outward where they eventually die and flake off. For most individuals, these flakes of skin are too small to be visible. However, certain conditions cause cell turnover to be unusually rapid, especially in the scalp. For people with dandruff, skin cells may mature and be shed in 2–7 days, as opposed to around a month in people without dandruff. The result is that dead skin cells are shed in large, oily clumps, which appear as white or grayish patches on the scalp.*

Dandruff –How to Get Rid of it Naturally.

If you suffer from itchy scalp and flaky dead skin that appears on the scalp, eyebrows or around the hairline, ears or nose, there are natural treatments available.

Natural remedies for dandruff treatment include: Following a healthy diet that includes flax seed oil; daily scalp massage increases blood circulation; weekly oil treatment to scalp, washing off in shower after 10-15 minutes will help avoid excessive drying out of skin; frequent  mild shampoos that include any or all of the following Ayurvedic herbs:

Shikakai:  A pod that’s considered a superior cleanser for lustrous long hair and has been reported to promote hair growth; included in natural remedies for itchy scalp prevention and dandruff treatment. Because of these benefits, this pod was named "Shikakai" which translated as, "fruit for hair".

Soapnut: Indian name Reetha fruit is also called Soapnut, as it contains natural soap. Besides excellent cleansing properties and dandruff treatment, it is known to keep hair and skin soft.

Amla: A wonderful cleansing agent for both the skin and hair. It imparts luster to hair and is an effective dandruff treatment; also helps prevent premature graying. Amla stimulates growth of hair on the scalp, and strengthens the hair roots.

Fenugreek: Seeds contain essential oil that contains 40 different valuable compounds. People used to soak fenugreek seeds overnight, and in the morning grind them into fine paste and apply them to the scalp for half hour for scalp treatment and removal of dandruff. The hair was then washed with Soapnut solution. The same paste was applied on the face at night before going to bed and then washed with warm water in the morning. This was known to prevent one from getting pimples, dryness and early appearance of wrinkles. It improved complexion and make one look younger.

In addition to being a proven dandruff treatment, these ancient herbs also are used for the following benefits:  Natural hair conditioning; Hair softening; Help fix hair split ends; Prevent hair loss; Helps cure itchy scalp problems.

The best benefit of all: When dandruff is eliminated and your self-esteem is boosted by a look in the mirror and you see beautiful, radiant hair.

Avoid Allergic Contact Dermatitis from PPD in Chemical Hair Dye

Allergic Contact Dermatitis
-What’s Paraphenylenediamine (PPD)?

Paraphenylenediamine (PPD) is a chemical substance that is widely used as a permanent hair dye. It is a leading cause of allergic contact dermatitis from application of popular mixes of hair dye. It may also been found in textile or fur dyes, dark coloured cosmetics, temporary tattoos, photographic developer and lithography plates, photocopying and printing inks, black rubber, oils, greases and gasoline.

How to Avoid Allergic Contact Dermatitis 
-from Paraphenylenediamine (PPD)

The solution for avoiding Allergic Contact Dermatitis is to avoid using synthetic hair dye altogether. Most artificial hair dye contain PPD, ammonia, peroxide and other harmful chemicals. As noted above, results through continued use can be quite detrimental.

Allergic Contact Dermatitis
-The Dermatological Solution

The solution given by most dermatologists across the globe is to use an all-natural hair dye such as pure henna that works like a semi-permanent color dye, but without chemicals. The problem with using pure henna is that it only gives one color: bright red-orange. Most people don’t care for pure henna color. Most people are satisfied with covering their gray hair or coloring their hair with their own natural shade of hair color. 

Allergic Contact Dermatitis
-The Dermatological Solution Exists

Heeding the above reminders, from dermatologists worldwide, many men and women have experienced successful results using Lustrous Henna® 100% all Natural Hair Dye. It comes in more than ten (10) natural hair color shades. The shades are a result of mixing pure henna  with the extracts of other botanical plants. All shades of color are totally natural and therefore, don’t contain any harmful chemical substance. Allergic Contact Dermatitis can be avoided since allergy reaction to pure henna is extremely rare. Lustrous Henna® 100% all Natural Hair Dye is a combination of ancient traditional hair dye combined with modern green living.

Hair Dye Warnings that Can Save Our Hair and Skin

Hair Dye Warnings Heeded

Did you know that a growing number of men and women (including a number of hair stylists) have made an important change in their hair coloring treatments. They’ve gone ‘all-natural’ and no longer use chemical hair dye. They use all natural herbal hair dye -that is free from Para-phenylenediamine (PPD), ammonia, peroxide and many other harmful chemicals. This was not an easy decision, but it was a wise one.  

Now, we love our all-natural, PPD-free hair dye.  We can still enjoy looking younger using natural herbal products that won’t harm our health.

Hair Dye Warnings Ignored

With the pressure from advertising companies placing emphasis on ‘speedy beauty’, many love the addiction to favorite (chemical) hair colors, even if they’re not a perfect natural match. On the other hand, there are others out there, still not totally convinced and still straddling the fence…and still using chemical hair dye with dangerous Para-phenylenediamine (PPD). Therefore, I’m repeating a few facts about the risks you take every time you use permanent chemical hair dye.

Possible Side Effects According to the FDA, American Cancer Society, CDC, NIH, National Cancer Institute -and a plethora of other consumer organizations

• Cause allergic reactions including redness, rashes, sores, burning sensations, itching and headaches.

• Be a possible carcinogen after oxidation, linked to increasing the occurrence of various forms of cancer such as: non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, Multiple myeloma, Breast Cancer, Leukemia, Bladder Cancer.

Additionally, a report (08/2007) from leading chemical company DuPont, regarding the dangers of para-phenylenediamine (PPD) in hair dye is well-documented in the Material Safety Data Sheet. (MSDS number: 1155CR) Unfortunately, this document is no longer available online. You must contact DuPont and request it.

See also: Facts about skin allergies from the New Zealand Dermatological Society, Inc. 

Please give serious thought to this information about possible side effects of chemical hair dye.

Do what numerous others have done. Make the wise choice: use all-natural plant-based hair dye and be healthy and strong for yourself and especially for those you love.

Almond Oil Recipes for Hair Care

Almond Oil and Hair Care Benefits

Almond oil has been used to promote thicker and longer hair growth all the way back to the ancient Egyptians. It strengthened the roots, thus strengthening growing hair; stopped hair loss; blocked dandruff; added radiant sheen and silky smoothness to the hair. Almond Oil contains fatty acids that are essential in natural hair care maintenance. It helps to grow and strengthen hair, while adding suppleness to healthy hair. Try this helpful oil in the following natural hair care recipes.

Almond Oil Scalp Massage

Try a simple scalp massage with about a tablespoon of almond oil. Continue the gentle massage to ends of hair; let rest for about 15 minutes, then use cool water and rinse hair. Follow with an all natural shampoo powder. Depending on condition of hair and rate of hair growth, repeat this treatment once or twice a week.

Deep Repair Masque for Dry Hair #1

Mix a teaspoon of each: olive oil, almond oil, coconut oil, avocado oil and 1 tablespoon of honey. Massage and smooth gently into the scalp. Do NOT comb hair with honey in it, USE YOUR HANDS to smooth.

Cover your head with shower cap; then cover with a towel to keep the heat in. Leave on for 20 minutes. Shampoo with Imbue™ Natural Shampoo or Lustrous Henna® Shampoo Powder. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water. Final part of rinse: use cold water for about a minute to close follicles.  Repeat this 3-4 times a week. This treatment will encourage hair growth by strengthening the hair follicle; reconstruct, moisturize, soften hair and remove frizz.

Deep Repair Masque for Dry Hair #2

Make a paste by mixing:

 2 egg yolks, 1 tsp. olive oil, 1 tsp. almond oil, 2 tsp. brandy,  2 tbsp. each of Amla, Reetha and Shikakai powder. Enough water to make paste.

Gently part hair and massage mixture on the scalp, first, then throughout hair. Cover your head with shower cap; then cover with a towel to keep the heat in. Leave on for 30 minutes. Shampoo with Imbue™ Natural Shampoo. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water. Final part of rinse: use cold water for about a minute to close follicles. To encourage hair growth, repeat treatment 2-3 times a week, as needed.

Almond oil is easy to apply, and most likely, can be found right on your kitchen pantry shelves. When used along with other natural botanical powders, it can make a real difference in your rate of hair growth in just a few short months. You’ll love the results of proper hair care.

Aloe Vera Plant Benefits for Healthy Hair

Aloe Vera Plant Promotes Healthy Hair Growth  

Are you worried by hair fall or hair loss? Aloe Vera is an excellent treatment for hair loss because the plant itself closely matches our own body’s biochemistry, containing many of the same vitamins and minerals that make up our own bodies. It strengthens, adds a healthy radiance and shine to hair.

The aloe vera plant contains many healthy hair benefits especially when combined with wheat germ oil and almond oil, added to Bhringraj. This mixture* helps to moisturize, nourish and revitalize your hair and scalp. If you suffer hair fall or hair thinning, then regular use of this healthy hair conditioner will help to stop hair fall or hair loss; thus promoting hair growth. Without question, Aloe Vera provides great benefits for hair loss or hair fall.

Aloe Vera Plant Additional Benefits

The Aloe Vera plant is a flowering plant with a long history of medicinal treatments for skin problems. It has been called “the lily of the desert” and “the plant of immortality”.  Its medicinal and healing properties have been known for over 4000 years. The Aloe Vera plant was used by ancient Greeks, Egyptians and Chinese civilizations. Cleopatra used it to purify her skin. Alexander the Great used it for his soldiers’ wounds.

As a topical medicinal treatment, Aloe Vera extracts have antibacterial and antifungal properties that may help in the treatment of skin infections and inhibit the growth of fungi. Additionally, it's a natural moisturizer that soothes the skin, eliminating the risk of flaky scalp (dandruff) and flaky skin in harsh and dry weather.

Aloe Vera ‘Product’ Warning

It’s fairly common knowledge that the Aloe Vera plant is a stemless or very short-stemmed succulent plant with yellow flowers, growing to 24–39 in tall. The small serrated leaves are thick and fleshy, green to grey-green, with some varieties showing white flecks on the upper and lower stem surfaces. The beautiful yellow flowers are produced in summer on a spike up to 35 in tall. It grows in arid climates and is widely distributed in Africa, India and other arid areas.

When we think of today’s Aloe Vera products, it seems that the words “Aloe Vera” on its packaging instantly mean that the product is healthy and beneficial. The sage counsel to “Let the Buyer Beware” should definitely be applied when we’re searching for pure Aloe Vera or natural products containing pure Aloe Vera.  We need to be especially careful and read the ingredient labels. We might be surprised to find out that many of these products contain harmful chemicals.

An example:  One well-known company claims to sell 100% Aloe Vera Gel.  However, after reading the ingredient label, you might be shocked to see that it is not 100% Aloe Vera Gel at all, but : “(an ‘earthy’ name) Aloe Vera, 100% Gel.” Does this make a difference? You bet it does. The ‘100% Gel’ is not pure Aloe Vera gel, but a chemical gel that contains some Aloe Vera and many other harmful chemical additives. One ingredient was even banned in Europe for being a known carcinogen!

Please heed the warnings and know the company you’re dealing with. Visit their website and get to know their natural product lines. As you regularly use truly natural products with pure Aloe Vera, your hair loss or hair fall will disappear. Your radiant hair and supple skin will reflect naturally healthy results.

*This combination of nourishing botanicals is found in every bottle of  Imbue® Natural Conditioner by Saba Botanical of USA.

Natural Hair Remedy for Hair Dye Allergy? Stop Searching.

A Natural Hair Remedy for Hair Dye Allergy.

The Search Begins…

Syed was in his early twenties when premature gray hair appeared and he believed that it was hurting his image. In his attempt to preserve his youthful appearance, he started covering his gray with chemical hair dye. Unfortunately, his didn’t realize how much of a struggle that decision would prove to be.

After a couple years of use he started to experience allergic reactions to the chemical hair dye. He was left with an intensely itchy, red and irritated scalp. Even with so-called ‘mild’ hair dye, the problem worsened. He was left with thinning hair and bald spots. His thick hair was gone and he was left with now a head of thin, gray hair. 

Eventually, following a friend’s advice, he decided to use what he thought was an all-natural hair dye product, "black henna" also called Kali Mendhi (Hindi translation for black henna). The result was a nightmare! It ended with a trip to the Emergency Room: Blisters all over his scalp and sideburns, a swollen face and his eyes were almost sealed shut. He later found out that the hair dye, Kali Mendhi black henna, contained paraphenylenediamine (PPD). The reason for the adverse reaction uncovered! The quest continued to find an all natural hair dye that was free of ammonia, peroxide, PPD and similar chemicals. 

His quest finally led him to the natural remedy for hair dye allergy was found: pure henna. Syed started using pure henna to cover his gray. The result was that his hair and scalp was revitalized. However, there was one big negative. His hair was now a bright (and a little scary) reddish-orange color. All he ever wanted was his black hair back, naturally. 

Natural Hair Remedy for Hair Dye Allergy: Success!

Syed soon learned that there is nothing that grows in nature, that instantly gives a black color to hair. Therefore, if he couldn't find the natural hair dye he was looking for -he would have to find a way to create it  himself using NATURE. His brainchild of developing a totally natural hair dye came to fruition after several years of research.

He worked in collaboration with the AMA Herbal Company of India who had only worked with natural dyes for textiles, previously.  A revolutionary 100% natural hair dye that does not contain toxic chemicals was soon realized. Syed and his team also created an application process that is safe, healthy and very easy to use. Just mix and apply. No need to wait for countless hours. Results are much quicker than traditional henna that involves several hours to complete.
