hello everyone. just thought I'd drop a note to say that today I
tried Catherine's Henna on my medium brown hair. although I have
been chemically dyeing my hair for 10 years, I have since decided I
no longer want to go that route. I was/am a bit nervous of the henna
coloring though, it seemed to have dried out my hair and the color is
orangy-red, not the shiney, burghandy color I was hoping for. I used
green tea/henna mixture, let sit overnight and left on hair about 2
hours. my last chemical dye-job was about 2 months ago. my question
is this, how soon before I can henna again, and what should I use for
mixture to hopefully get a much richer, darker and softer
color/feel? Thanks for all the useful information I've read so far,
I will continue to monitor this site and experiment with color.
