Hi there, just all excited, first time I want to try the henna. My
hair is dark brown, almost black , but still not black so I thought
of using henna. I bought one, it is called 'Black Vasma Henna' from
Pakistan.
Now I realize that possibly one box won't be enough because it is
only 100 gramm and my hair is down to my shoulderblades, but then
I'd like to ask that if I only use 100 gram would that be a problem?
I mean I don't want a dramatic result(well maybe later), just give
it a bit more blackish shade and some shine.
Also I'm a little confused, do I apply the 'paste' on wet or dry
hair? The box says wash hair, remove all greasiness and dry it
properly then apply henna. So that's right then? Ok I guess.
It only says on the box... Leave it for some time till dry then
rinse.... so how much that some time should be? I mean that
absolutely depends on the temperature as your hair dries.
Also... sorry if I seem a bit dumb, just I used about 3 months ago a
bluish black chemical dye... well first it was tooo black and then
after 3 weeks it looked nice but then it's gone out absolutely in
after 1.5 months I used it... yes... super permanent....
But the question is... can I use this 'henna' or better say
indigo?... won't it make any trouble with my hair if I got by any
chance chemical dye traces in my hair?

:) btw it looks green, and a little of it mixed with water, made a
paste and cut a bit of my hair and 'dyed' it... well I'll see how
it's going to look tomorrow. Also mixed some powder in a glass with
some water about half an hour ago... but it still looks green
water... hmm.

OK, wish me luck :)

btw, anything I should avoid using (chemical, type of shampoo,
hairspray or gel or anything...)

Please wrtite the answer to my email address... that will get to me
faster.

Thanks
