I have just had henna done in Rainbow Henna (bought in the health food store) Persian
light brown. Persian blonde did little or nothing which is why I went darker. I basically like
the results but there may be some room for improvement since the front where I have
most of my gray is a littly carroty for my taste. Aside form that, the color turned out
surprisingly like what my hair "used to be"--in my youth (with age and very short hair it
now appears quite dark with quite a lot of gray in front) it was a kind of honey bonde--
medium/darkblonde (depending on conditions) with reddish highlights--sometimes
photographed redder than it actually was. With this henna, even the carroty area in front
is in the same tone range, but how can I improve--make the color more even, or make the
gradations more effective. The stylist(it's hard to find one who'll do it)applied it well but I
get very little support from him.
