It grow in countries of hot tropical climates like Indian, Pakistan, North Africa, Middle East & other Asian Countries. The best color comes from the youngest leaves on top of the shoots. These leaves are dried and ground into a fine powder for different fineness, thickness, precision and smoothness. The rest of the plant is dried and ground to make hair products like hair dyes and shampoos.
