AWAFI MILL Henna Katam Powder 500g | Yemeni Katam Buxus dioica

AWAFI MILL Henna Katam Powder, also known as Yemeni Katam or Al-Katam Powder, is finely ground from the dried leaves of Buxus dioica. The naturally green to olive-green powder has a fine, soft texture and an earthy, leafy and mildly woody character.

Katam Powder is traditionally used with henna in plant-based hair-colouring preparations. When blended with henna, it can be used to create brown, chocolate-brown, deep brown and cooler dark tones. The final colour may vary depending on the starting hair colour, henna-to-katam ratio, preparation method, application time, hair texture and other factors.

To use, gradually mix the required quantity with warm water in a non-metallic bowl until a smooth, spreadable paste is formed. It may be combined with henna according to the desired shade. Apply evenly to clean hair using gloves, leave for the preferred application time and rinse thoroughly with water.

Conduct a patch and strand test before full application. Avoid contact with eyes. Carefully prepared and packed without added colours, artificial fragrances, fillers or preservatives. Store tightly sealed in a cool, dry place away from moisture, heat, direct sunlight and strong odours.
