Well..
I've just completed my first ever henna!
My final mix ended up consisting of 300g henna powder.. about equal
parts lemon juice & red wine.. with about half a cup of tea thrown
in, for good measure. I couldn't decide which EO to use as a terp,
so I used three different ones (Tea Tree, Marjoram & Lavender).. et
voila! It looked & smelled foul! :op

I slapped it all on, this morning.. it was all over the bath.. all
over the sink.. up the walls & all over me (even on the underneath
of my feet!).. thank goodness I covered the bathroom carpet with a
plastic sheet!

I left it on 6 hours (I was determined it was going to work!), while
I lazed around outside, in the sun..
I've just rinsed it all out & I absolutely love it!
It's very bright ginger, where my blonde bits once were, but I like
bright! Bright is good! I'll probably be quite sad when it tones
down in a few days. Though I have to say, it does clash a little
with my newly sunburned forehaed! :o/ lol

I'm totally converted to henna now..
Yey for henna!!! :o)
