Swimming with henna in your hair can cause henna colour and hair dyes to fade and become dull. This is because of the chlorine in pool water.
If you’ve used henna with metallic salts in it i.e. a pre mixed compound henna hair colour, there is also a danger that your hair can turn green.
Our henna hair colour products are 100% pure henna and 100% pure indigo and they do not contain any metallic salts or other colour fixatives. Some manufacturers use these to create and market different henna hair colour shades. Rest assured we do not add chemicals to our products.
To protect your hair from chlorine, try wetting your hair and coating it with natural hair oil :
Amla oil , Argan oil , or our natural minty Neem & Amla hair oil will help mask the smell of chlorine .
For extra protection, use a swimming cap.
You can also apply a tablespoon of hair conditioner to wet hair which is fine as long as you’re comfortable using hair conditioner .
