From Very Light to Dark
khadi Color Prep forms an optimal primer for the color change from very light to a darker shade. It will deposit a strawberry blonde to intense copper base color on your hair making the transition easier. Use Color Prep before you color with your desired shade. Simply mix the color powder with water that is 176° F and leave on your hair for 60 minutes for an intense base color.
Bleach & Highlights
khadi Color Prep prepares your bleached, dry, or porous hair for further coloring by adding blonde and copper pigments. Use Color Prep before you color with your desired shade. Simply mix the color powder with water that is 140° F and leave on your hair for 30 minutes.
Chemical Coloring / Gray Roots
Do you have gray roots? khadi Color Prep will deposit a strawberry blonde to intense copper base color on your gray roots, preparing them for further coloring with your desired khadi shade. This step is great for you, if you want to color with a darker khadi shade and achieve optimal gray coverage on your roots. Simply mix with water that is 176° F and leave on your roots for 60 minutes.

khadi products bring harmony to your body, mind and soul. Our plants thrive in the warm Indian sun and are hand picked by small co-ops at peak season. We use only the finest leaves - no stems - because they contain the purest color. Our valuable plants are ground to a superfine powder to create the richest color.
Our Ayurvedic Formula
Recipes with unique blends of active ingredients are derived from mankind's oldest medicine - Ayurveda. In these recipes lies the spirit of khadi. khadi Natural Hair Color dyes your hair with the power of finely ground plant-based powder. The natural color pigments it contains bind to the hair cuticle and adhere to the surface of the hair shaft – creating a nourishing color glaze that protects and revitalizes.
The khadi Ritual
The finely ground plant powder is mixed with tempered water to a naturally creamy paste. This potent color cream is then applied to freshly washed hair. After allowing the hair dye to soak in, the color cream is washed out with water only.

The color result is immediately visible, but intensifies over the next 24 to 48 hours.
