I didn't notice any increase in brassiness over the weeks ... the last two times I
hennaed I used substantial indigo, close to half the previous time and half indigo this
time. I didn't want black, so I mix the henna the night before, the indigo just before
application (~20 minutes, with HOT water) and then when they're both ready mix
them together and apply.

I got a dark cherry brown, I'd call it ... I'm pleased with it. I started with brown hair,
my first henna was VERY brassy orange, and it's been getting deeper and "cooler"
tones each time. I'm very pleased with this last time with the 50/50 - I don't know
how much to attribute to the successive applications and how much to attribute to
the indigo added. What color are you starting with? My gray hairs are still much
brassier than the dark hairs, but they don't look carroty with my new mix.

Below is a pic of my newest results
