Moroccan Henna Extract

from $19.99

Shepherd Textiles Moroccan Henna Extract is made from the leaves of the henna plant lawsonia inermis. Henna has a history as a dyestuff that goes as far back as the Pharaonic Era of ancient Egypt. It is used as a hair dye and a fabric dye, and perhaps most famously as the source of “mehndi,” the beautiful brown skin decoration applied throughout South Asia. The main pigment is an orange-brown compound called lawsone, but henna is also rich in natural tannins. It will produce a variety of colors of brown on wool and silk, although it has little affinity for cotton. Use at 20% weight-of-fabric for medium shades. For more information and color recipes, check out our Guide to Dyeing with Moroccan Henna Extract.

Made in France from henna plants grown in Morocco. Produced by a GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certified manufacturer.
