My explanation? You used Lush. They are, in my opinion, not worth
the packaging they come in. Yes, REAL henna is helpful in thickening
hair and stopping breakage/fall-out, but since I don't know what's in
Lush right off the top of my head I have no idea what weird thing in
it has done this too your hair. I'm very sorry it happened, but in
the future, especially since you're apparently going for a bright
red, just use regular body art quality henna from any of the
suppliers on this site.
