My black hair starting to turn gray in my twenties. I felt, I am still young to show gray and starting using commercially available chemical dyes to hide my gray. After a while my scalp starting to itch and skin turn red where the dye was applied. As the time went by, it started to get worst with each dye application. Even the mildest of the dye I could found on the shelf caused a reaction to my scalp. My hair started to thin and bald spots started to develop, my thick hair were gone. I was struggling to hide my gray.

Some one told me that there is a natural product called Kali Mendhi( Black Henna). Hoping this will solve my problem I bought a pack and applied to my hair, not knowing, this will turn into my worst nightmare. Next day, blisters starting appearing all over my scalp and side burns, my face swell up and my eyes were almost shut. I was in agony and had to rush for emergency treatment. This was a frightening experience. Later on I find out that Kali Mendhi(black Henna) contained Paraphenylene-diamene(PPD) which caused this reaction.

While going through shelf to shelf of hair coloring products from one store to another, I could not find a product which was free of Ammonia, Peroxide and PPD or similar chemicals. Health food stores did carry some henna base coloring products but their results were so marginal that they were not worth the time and money.

I resorted to pure henna, which I feel is the greatest herb exists on the planet earth. The use of henna revived my hair and scalp, my hair started to look healthy again. The only problem with pure henna was, that my gray hair turned Reddish/orange which was sort of scary. I started to get used to it, but always wished that, if they were natural black.

I knew there are millions of people out there that need a natural hypoallergenic hair dye.

One day I met an executive of AMA herbal Labs. He said, "They will be happy to take this project." Not realizing that how intricate this project will be. Within a year they came out with a product, which I named Lustrous Henna. But this was no different then the products already selling in the health food stores. Three years went by without any encouraging news. Then the second version of the product came out. The result still was not very encouraging. I was about to give up, when it clicked and they were really able to improve on this product. I call this, the third generation of Lustrous Henna that you will get from us now. Lustrous Henna is worth Bragging about; it does not contain PPD, Ammonia, Peroxide or toxic chemicals. It is a 100% natural hair dye. Nature has answer to all our needs, as we discover, we benefit from it.

Lustrous Henna should be used by every one who needs to dye their hair. It is safe and healthy.
