Hello, everybody,
Right, I have spent most of the last week perusing this and related
sites, and decided to introduce myself - all the posts indicate that
you are lovely people whom I'd like to know! I have 'fried hair,'
which actually still looks all right, but I have been considering
resuming henna, which I used to use exclusively. What I have learnt
here made me rearrange all my bathroom cupboards, move out any
remaining boxes of chemical dyes, unearth some henna, and begin
harvesting hair for a test. My hair doesn't hold the red chemical
dyes at all well - it went quite grey last year, after about ten
years of dyeing it black - it was naturally a very dark chestnut. So I
stripped the black off, lopped off a fair bit, and now have a thick,
copper auburn, shoulder-grazing mop,which I want to grow longer, and
increase the red as much as possible. So advice is welcome!
Incidentally, I currently live near Toronto; I used to get henna
there from the Body Shop chain, wwhich no longer carries it. But when
I asked, the clerk said I was about the third person that day to
enquire why not!

Thanks to you all,

Katherine Alexandra [you may call me whichever name you prefer]
