Re: GreetingsPosted by CorriRose on September 4, 2004 at 17:23:19: In reply to: Re: Greetings posted by valerie on August 27, 2004 at 20:33:06: : : 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] : : Hello Katherine :) I am new here too. This is a great site and as you : can see a lot of good advice. I did the same as you and cleared out : all the chemical hair colors out of my cupboard (well Im still : hanging on to the bleach and sun-in at this point just in case) but : dont think I will go back. Like you I am growing out my hair but have : much further to go than you do. In march it was in a boy cut, now its : just starting to look somthing other than extremely short. There is : no comparison between naturally colored hair and chemically colored. : the chemical looks dead and well chemically colored, especially after : a while yuk. and you have only to look at the technique section on : this site to see the difference. I have never seen so much lush shiny : healthy red hair in all my life!:) Well just wanted to say hi and : welcome. Happy henna-ing. : Valerie Helo, Newbies....I'm one too. My hair is chin length because it was breaking off. From what I read here, this silly Beatles style haircut now has the capability to go beyond my chin. I henna'd once before I found this wonderful site...I just henna'd again. Yeay! There's finally hope for me! Here's to all redheads...newbies, oldies, and in-betweenies....and those lustrous locks...Beatles style..shoulder-length, and, I think all our dreams...those heavenly long (sigh)ones. Happy to meet you guys!
