Radico Organic Hair Colour-Mahogany 100g
Radico Colour Me Organic Hair Colour - Mahogany 100g
Radico Colour Me Organic Hair Colour - Mahogany 100g is a plant-based powdered hair colour designed to give hair a rich mahogany shade with warm red and brown tones. It is formulated with a blend of six herbal ingredients: Henna, Indigo, Amla, Bhringraj, Hibiscus, and Methi (Fenugreek).
The colour-producing combination of henna and indigo gives the Mahogany shade its characteristic warm, deeper colour profile. Because this is a botanical hair colour, the final result is influenced by your existing hair colour, hair condition, application method, and how long the colour is left on the hair. The shade may therefore look different from person to person.
The powder is supplied in a 100g pack and is mixed with water to prepare it for application. The resulting paste can be applied to clean hair, covering the roots and lengths as required. Radico recommends leaving the colour on for at least 60 minutes before thoroughly rinsing it out.
One important characteristic of botanical hair colour is that the colour does not necessarily show its final appearance immediately after rinsing. The shade can continue developing as it oxidizes over the following 3 to 5 days, meaning the colour seen immediately after application may deepen or change slightly during this period.
Herbal Colour Blend
The formula combines six botanical ingredients:
- Henna (Lawsonia inermis): A traditional plant used for colouring hair and producing warm reddish tones.
- Indigo (Indigofera tinctoria): A plant-based colour ingredient used alongside henna to create deeper brown and darker tones.
- Amla: An Indian fruit traditionally used in hair-care preparations.
- Bhringraj: A botanical commonly used in traditional Indian hair-care practices.
- Hibiscus: A flowering botanical used in traditional hair and beauty preparations.
- Methi (Fenugreek): Fenugreek seeds are traditionally used in Indian hair-care routines.
What Makes the Mahogany Shade Different?
Mahogany sits between warm red and brown tones. The combination of henna and indigo creates a deeper colour than plain henna alone, while retaining a noticeable warm undertone.
The actual result will depend on your starting hair colour. On lighter or grey hair, the colour may appear more visibly warm and red-toned, while on darker hair it may appear subtler, with the mahogany tones becoming more noticeable under light.
Formula Details
Radico describes this hair colour as free from several ingredients commonly associated with conventional oxidative hair dyes, including ammonia, PPD, peroxide, resorcinol, bleach and parabens.
It is a powder-based botanical hair colour, rather than a conventional permanent oxidative dye. This distinction is important when setting expectations about application and colour development.
How to Use
- Mix the required amount of Radico Mahogany Hair Colour powder with water to form a smooth, workable paste.
- Apply the mixture evenly to clean hair, beginning at the roots and working through the lengths.
- Leave the colour on for at least 60 minutes, depending on the desired result and application requirements.
- Rinse the hair thoroughly with water.
- Allow the colour to develop naturally. The final shade can continue to deepen over approximately 3 to 5 days as oxidation takes place.
For first-time use, a strand test can help you understand how Mahogany will look on your particular hair colour. A patch/sensitivity test is also recommended before applying the product fully.
