I am 25 and have hennaed my hair since I was 19. When it was shorter
it had a nice natural wavy curl, but as it got longer and heavier it
doesn't do that anymore. I love my hair curly but I don't have time
to set it every day and I would like to perm it. I have not hennaed
my hair since March 16 (about a month and a half) in preparation for
the perm, which will happen next week if it appears safe enough to
do. I should think 1.5 months is long enough that there is no henna
residue that will react with the perm. I also plan to wait at least 2-
3 weeks after the perm to put henna on my roots again. Does this
sound safe? Has anyone else out there permed hennaed hair and had
good results? Can someone just tell me if this is safe to do given
the amount of time I have waited since my last henna job? Catherine,
I know you probably know something about this.
