I'm not 100% certain, but I think the only way you'll get your hair
back to blonde, after henna, is by peroxiding it. But if you do
that, be very careful.. I wouldn't fancy bleaching my whole head of
hair! :o|

: I think I've seen people mention it in here. Can't you add Cassia
: Obovata to your mix and keep diluting it until you are adding
nothing
: but Cassia. I thought I had read that it turned from red to light
red
: to strawberry blond to your hair color over successive sessions. I
: also read that coating your hair in mineral oil sometimes "washes
out"
: the henna, like maybe using that in between dye sessions...but I am
: certainly NOT a henna expert. I would definitely check with some
of
: the experts on the site. Maybe Catherine will come by and see
this.
