Glad to be of some help, Valerie :o)

If I were you though, I'd go with the body art quality henna, rather
than hair quality henna, from a health food store.. Many ready
made 'hair hennas' have other things mixed in with the henna powder,
or are old & poor quality, at best.. or have less than desirable &
even damaging ingredients in them, at worst.
I use the henna from Catherines store (on the 'Suppliers' page of
this site) & have had excellent results.

I haven't actually been to the hairdressers since I hennaed for the
first time (about 4 months ago now), so they haven't had chance to
give me a telling off about using henna!.. not that I'd pay any
attention to them anyway! :op I used to have my hair trimmed at
least every 8 weeks, but I've had no split ends since I hennaed!
My mother's actually a retired hair stylist.. she thinks the whole
henna thing's great!
