Henna Powder is the dried leaf of LAWSONIA INERMIS L., a shrub or small tree, which is indigenous to the area between Iran and Northern India. Botanists believe that the plants origin is somewhere in Persia. In India, it has been used since around 700AD and has continued to be very popular for over 500a years. The plant has been introduced widely throughout the tropics and sub-tropics as an ornament (frequently as a fragrant hedge) for home use as a dye and elsewhere as a commercial crop. LAWSONIA INERMIS L. (HENNA) is a small shrub with heavily scented cream flowers and blue/black fruit.
The major pigment in Henna leaf is LAWSON (2 HYDROXY- 1, 4-NAPTHAQUINONE) which fixes strongly to the proteins of the hair and skin. Henna nourishes, adds shine, helps slow premature graying, softens and strengthens hairs.
