"Senna" Question

Hi Everyone!

I am very anxious to start using Henna to try to bring health back
to my hair. (as described below in post "Help Please... for lurking
1st time poster! " )

The neutral Hennas I am seeing are a mix of different plants,
even with yellows in them. I am not interested in these. I want to
keep the plant as whole as possible.

I went to a local Health Food Store as they sell plants, herbs and
spices in bulk foods in apothecary type jars to measure out (they
used to have Henna, that would go so fast in my healthy hair
days, I did not need it ! But they no longer have that.)

I was looking for Cassia Obovata...they Did have Senna Leaves.
The leaves were dried but green (looked like a bay leaf) not
brown. Is this the same senna as The Cassia that goes by
Neutral Henna??? Can I grind this myself in a coffee grinder???

I would evetually like to Sample Catherines Cassia Obovata, but
after reading the replies to my post, I am excited to start
YeSteRDay with no color (to try to arrest to20-30 hairs at a time
that are still falling. Then I want to try the "Glossing" and then if all
goes well with healthier growth...with some Henna Mix for my
needs.

Is this Senna the Cassia Obovata you all speak of??? Please
help. I am very desperate!

Love & Light, Tee
