The uniqueness of Henna oil lies in the red-orange pigment
called – lawson, which binds to the hair's keratin, imparting a
copper to mahogany hue. It will enhance the colour of red and brunette
hair. [1]

Because of the natural content of lawson and other bioactive substances,
Henna oil also acts as a great and all-natural UV filter,
protecting the structure of keratin from damage. This prevents brittle hair and
split ends. [2]

skin. It really comes handy for excessive dandruff formation or
