: Hi,
: I'm new to this site, and I'm seriously considering hennaing my
hair
: because I've been dyeing my hair with regular dye for more than 10
: years and I'm only 36 years old! The chemical dyes make my scalp
: itch after I do it, and now is when I realized after reading
: everything on it that I'm allergic to it! duh!
: I'm so scared to do this..... my husband likes me as a blond, but
I
: do not want to sacrifice my health.
:
: I have 100% gray on my front part of my scalp - especially my
: sideburns! In the back part of my head, I am about 50% gray. I
: would like to stay blond but don't know what to use. I definitely
: don't want red and blond together. I don't think it would look
: nice. My only other option would be to dye it my natural color
: which is medium to dark brown to cover the grays. I think brown
hair with red highlights(not too red) will look better.
:
: I've looked at all your mixes but I am still not sure what mix to
: use?
:
: First, I have to do a hair strand test to see if it won't create
any
: reactions. After what I've been reading, it seems like the
natural
: henna won't react to the synthetic dye on my head right now.
:
: Please help. I haven't gone back to my appointments for fear. So
: now my gray hairs are growing and visible and I can't stand it
like
: this much longer!
