: Hello, everybody,
: Right, I have spent most of the last week perusing this and
related

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

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

when

As I have mentioned in previous posts, I have been a long time
hennahead, am in my fifties, suppose most of my hair is grey now and
was okay with the henna bit albeit becoming a bit brassy and
then...discovered the really good stuff via this site and what a
difference it makes! A deeper red and also more auburny not bozoy
(if this makes sence). This old chic usually gets a couple
compliments a day when she ventures out and not that I was fishing
for it, just like to feel beautiful.
