Ok, I'm reporting in as a lab rat!

I thawed out my ~12 oz (volume) of prabda henna + beetroot from last time. And I
added probabyl about the same volume of indigo mixed with hot water, which had sat
about 30 minutes until I saw the dye release. I mixed the two mixtures together
(both having shown dye release) ... glopped it on ... I have about 8 oz. leftover - I
must have really REALLY thin hair, :LOL I keep trying to use up my leftovers and
getting MORE!

I plan to leave this on for 6-8 hours.

I used an old wooden fork to mix the indigo, and it is stained bluish at the bottom,
then used the same fork when I mixed in the thawed henna, and it is stained orange
above the bluish, so I guess that's a good sign, right? :LOL

Pix and results to follow
