Cassia Obovata, all in one poultice
Cassia Obovata is a plant that has many benefits for hair health: it strengthens hair, adds shine and volume, is a natural anti-dandruff agent and also helps to reduce excess oil. It is an essential hair treatment to take care of your hair.
Are you experiencing hair loss and do you notice that your hair is weak and lacking volume? Or do you simply want more shine? Cassia Obovata is here to give your hair the boost it needs. This plant, also known as Cassia Italica or Henna Neutra, is a leguminous plant with yellow flowers that has properties similar to those of Henna (Lawsonia Inermis), but without dyeing.

Characteristics and properties of Cassia Obovata
- It is ideal for all hair types.
- It provides a lot of shine and strength, because it acts naturally on the hair's keratin, reinforcing its structure and providing a lot of shine and volume.
- It is an ally against greasy hair because it helps us to balance the pH of the scalp, so it treats the greasiest or driest hair from the root. With regular use, you will be able to regulate this pH to a neutral state. It is a treatment that is also widely used by men because, in addition to regulating excess oil, it gives shine and strength to the hair, without dyeing it.
Indications for home treatment
Ideally, Cassia Obovata should be applied once a month to maintain good hair health. Depending on how healthy your hair is, you can space out the applications more or less.
Important: this powdered treatment requires the hair cuticle to be repaired, to counteract its astringent effect and take advantage of all its benefits. If your hair is damaged, with split ends or bleached (for example), and you have not previously prepared your hair for at least 1 month, we do not advise you to apply Cassia Obovata, because your hair is not ready to absorb the nutrients of this plant. If you need to prepare your hair, we tell you what to do and what you need, in Steps 1 and 2 of The Henna Morena Method.

Combining Cassia Obovata with vegetable colouring
Besides being an excellent treatment for strengthening the hair, it is ideal for mixing with other plants. As it does not provide colour, it helps to reduce the intensity of some pigmenting plants such as Henna or Chamomile. That is why you will find it in some of our formulas: Henna with Cassia Obovata, Chamomile with Cassia Obovata, Chamomile or Henna with Chamomile.
