:Im very new to this I just became a henna redhead last week for the
first time. but Its been my understanding with the commercial /
healthfood store hennas ( a friend has used them) You dont leave it
on very long.
I left the natural henna on for about 4 1/2 hours.
I looked at it at 2 hours and it was pretty orangy. I have dark ash
blonde with 65% /50% grey.
I used ground cloves in the mix. red wine and lemon juice. It was
pretty orangy at first but after two days has mellowed into an
intense cinnamony gingersnap cookie red. I love it.
Take Catherines advice and do a test on hairbrush harvested hair.
Good luck
