Request export quote — share SKU mix, port, and annual volume for a structured reply.
French consumers and salons continue to shift toward plant-based positioning. Distributors building natural hair colour assortments from India should pair henna and indigo with honest claims, batch discipline, and education — not “chemical-free” slogans without specs.
Assortment architecture
Two-step systems dominate professional natural colour: henna for orange-red base tones, indigo for brown-black depth. Ready blends appear in natural hair colour SKUs for faster salon throughput.
