: I just recently henna'd my hair (see last post) and i was wondering
: if i might have messed up by using too much lime juice. I really
: used mostly lime juice and a little bit of tea. (lol earl
grey...its
: what i had sitting there) but that made for gross little pulp bits
: and fairly straw feeling hair for a while afterward. (i conditioned
: alot to compinsate) i dont know what i should mix it with instead,
: esp to avoid the gross pulp bits. also does anyone know how many
: grams of henna you should mix with what amount liquid? my supplier
: of henna powder only sold it in grams so i have no idea of oz like
: most sites give directions w/. irk, so confused! help please!

Oh, good, somebody else who is new to all this, just like me! I
haven't used henna in some years, either, and what an eye-opener this
site is... I have been having just the problems you describe, and am
very excited about trying body art quality henna soon. If you go to
The Henna Page [the one for skin],and click on Mix Henna, as well as
checking the Mixes part of Henna for Hair, that helped me to learn a
lot, and perhaps you will find the solution [no pun] to your problem
there. Good luck!
