: I'm going to henna my hair for the first time tommarrow, and I was
: wondering if terps make any difference on your hair. The henna mix
: I use on my skin is just henna/lemon juice/sugar/tea tree oil/clove
: oil. I was planning on using the same recipe on my hair, minus the
: sugar. Do terps affect the color tone, or just allow more dye to
: release?

I've never hennaed without terp, but my impression is that it allows more dye to
soak into the hair. It doesn't release more dye; once I made a mix with enough
terp, but insufficient lemon juice, and it came out pretty poor.
