Awesome Henna

Worked really well to get my hair a beautiful deep fiery orange. Used to using Lush’s henna blocks, getting it in powder form is easier to use.. however, Lush’s henna does leave your hair smelling much better. This henna has my hair smelling like a dirty drain every time I get my hair wet. Maybe that’s just a normal scent for “pure” henna? Either way, as long as you use some sort of perfume via a hair product, or bodily perfume/cologne, you wont notice the smell.Also, here is a henna preparation and application guide.-Measure out your Henna into a *GLASS* container (it will stain other containers, and metal isn’t good w/ henna). I have short hair, and weighed out 50grams of henna. It was more than enough. I’d guess about 100grams for shoulder length hair, 150grams for chest length hair, etc.-Next, you want to SLOWLY add some really warm/hot (120°f MAX) water, which is about the temp water comes out of your sink at full heat, use a thermometer to double check, though.-Stir the mixture as you go to eliminate most clumps and check the consistency.-Once you have added enough water and stirred to make a thick, creamy paste (think yogurt or toothpaste consistency), you want to cover the mix with plastic wrap; you can keep it held on securely with a rubber band.-Let the mixture sit for at least an hour before using.-After an hour or so, you will notice the mixture has become very reddish brown. That’s the released dye, you are ready to apply!-Use gloves, wear a towel/cape, apply Vaseline around hairline to prevent skin stains, have paper towels/etc on hand to wipe up spills before they stain, and stand somewhere you can either clean up easily (shower/tub/etc), or apply outside.-Once your hair is fully soaked with the henna mix, you’ll want to wipe as much as possible off any parts of your skin on your face you don’t want to turn orange.-Then wrap your hair in plastic wrap as well as you can, making sure to cover all parts to lock in moisture and heat (these two things are essential for a good dying process!).-I would also toss on a plastic shopping bag on top of all the plastic wrap to make sure everything stays contained.-Keep henna on your hair for 2 hours+, I usually place a big black towel down over my pillow/ sleeping area, and just go to sleep looking like a mummy. I find that keeping it on my hair for ~8hrs gives me best results.-Once you’re done letting it sit in your hair, go shower/ wash it off! DO NOT SHAMPOO. USE CONDITIONER TO HELP LOOSEN IT FROM YOUR HAIR. Be gentle, so you don’t fling henna bits all over your shower, less to clean later!-Enjoy your new hair!

It is messy, but turned out great!

I’m done with chemical dyes and am hopeful this one works. I grew up with naturally strawberry blond, and then auburn hair, which faded to more brownish, with graying at the temples, so I’ve been coloring it for several years. I mixed the whole package in a glass bowl of hot water and covered it for about 4 hours. It’s messy, so be prepared; I had paper towels ready and used Playtex gloves. I put Vaseline on the skin around my ears and face at the hair line and covered it all with plastic wrap, after applying it. I’m glad my husband was able to help me get it on where I couldn’t see. I thought I could do it all on my own, but did need help. I didn’t mind the fragrance and the texture was smoother than I thought it would be. I’ll definitely be using non-chemical products from now on and am looking forward to how this turns out. I’ll give an update.UPDATE: My hair color turned out great, but not as bright as I thought it would be. My hair is shoulder length and I used the whole package, but from now on I’ll about half as much or just much less to cover just the roots, as others have suggested. My hair is soft and I don’t smell any fragrance. Very pleased!

Bonne texture

Belle couleur de henné

lasted a long time and saved me money compared to other dyes

This lasted me a long time, left my hair in good condition and saved me a lot of money from other hair dyes. Doing root touch-ups, this probably lasted about 6-10 dyes. Good product, smells like food, not good or bad, and adding essential oils when dying can help turn the long time-consuming process of henna into a spa experience.

It’s the best.

I’m a barber and keep my hair very short; my gray hair grows in quickly. This henna has worked wonders—it’s excellent. I love it; I simply let it sit for about 40 minutes and then apply it to my hair for another 30 minutes. Of course, I cover my head with a plastic bag, and I can guarantee it completely changes my hair color. I usually follow a two-step process—henna first, then indigo—and the result is a perfect brown. I highly recommend this henna; it’s very good. I’ve tried many types of henna, and I can assure you that this one works wonders. You just have to let it sit in warm water—I repeat, warm water—and the result is a beautiful, natural reddish shade. There’s no need to wait as long as you do with other brands; it’s fast and effective. I’ve used other brands and left them on longer, but they didn’t work because my gray hair is hard to dye. I give it 5 stars.

Game changer!!!

Too bad I didn’t take a before pictures. I can never do chemical dye products due to severe reactions. My scalp turns hot pink and burns.I thought I could never dye my white hairs and just live with grandma hair. But oh boy!!! This henna product and matching indigo powder mix changed my look dramatically. I have medium brown hair color, and henna:indigo, 3:1 ratio was perfect mix for my hair color.The longer you leave the mixture in room temp the better. Color gets deeper and works better. I first used the one I mixed night before, and I found some missing spot, so I used them again one day after, color came out even better.And no reaction whatsoever yet, and hair didn’t get damaged at all. Perfectly satisfied😍
