: Chemical coloring treatments always suggested waiting a day or two: after washing hair before coloring it--in order to allow natural
oils
: on the head to penetrate the hair shaft (which would supposedly
help
: the color adhere). Does this rule of thumb pertain to henna and/or
: indigo treatment as well?
As clean as possible. Those natural oils the chemical dye needs help
protect you from the gross stuff (like PPD). With henna (and I'm
assuming indigo) the hair needs to be clean so that it can get to the
whole hair as evenly as possible.
