Thanks Nancy.

I did learn about the quick demise of indigo the hard way. Do you
have any feel for the dye release and demise of walnut? What did
liquid did you mix with the walnut/amla/indigo paste? Water?

After reading your response I may up the walnut a bit and do 50 henna,
40 walnut, and 10 indigo. I'd rather put up with the red tones than
go too dark black, since I don't wear make-up and with my coloring I
would look washed out.

What exactly does amla do that indigo doesn't? I gather from reading
other posts that it is another black. Is is blue toned like indigo?
Maybe that will be my next experiment.
