Cassia Obovata Leaf Powder (Cassia / “Neutral Henna” Leaf Powder)

Cassia Obovata Leaf Powder is a plant-derived powder traditionally used in hair care as a conditioning botanical, often referred to as “neutral henna” because it provides hair-strengthening and shine benefits without the strong red tone of true henna. It forms a light film on the hair fiber that can improve smoothness, manageability, and perceived thickness, while helping reduce the look of dullness and roughness. In cosmetic use, it is common in herbal hair masks, scalp and length treatments, and botanical hair-care blends; on very light or porous hair it may impart a subtle golden tint depending on the batch, processing time, and formula. As with other botanicals, patch testing is recommended to assess individual tolerance.
