There was an article about natural hair products and of course they
got the stuff about henna wrong. They said it was temporary (they
actuallly said it will wash out in 5 weeks) because the henna just
sits on top of the hair unlike chemical dye which bonds with the hair.
They also said that it didn't work on grey hair. They advised people
with a lot of grey to add "two tablespoons of vinegar to your henna
mixture" because "the added acidity will help the color to better
adhere to your hair." The "expert" they used for the article was a
Tourles who obviously doesn't know dick about real henna. Obviously,
they got a letter from me pointing them right here and next door for
some real information, not that halfway stuff they obviously didn't
check out before publishing.
