Hi, everyone

I am on the mix page Debbie b I need some advice.

When I henna I had a little problem first I never dye my hair with
synthetic dyes I did use a health box henna once before. The henna
and indigo that I use is from here. The one thing I didn’t write was
that I didn’t do a test I just made my mix and put it on. I like the
way it turned out but want to do more and get it a more darker/burgundy.

I had the herbal tea, lemon juice, cloves in my mix. Had it on for 7 ½
hours. Didn’t have a problem while it was on. When I wash it out I
had an itching and burning sensation on my head not terrible but it
was there. It has been a week and it is starting to feel better it is
like a tiny irrated feeling.

I took some henna and indigo to test on my arm and notice that I was
itchy and red with the indigo and not the henna. I am not sure can
some be allergic to one and not the other. I am very sensitive to
things and have a very sensitive scalp always had. So bummed out I
might be that rare person to be allergic.

I wanted so much to use the indigo in my next henna because I wanted a
darker blackish burgundy color not really red.

Or maybe it could have been a combination of things in my mix on for
so long.

Hope to hear thank you
