OK, my youngest has been begging me to henna her hair but I haven't
because she has really light blonde hair and I was afraid that it
would turn out Bozo the Clown orange. Well, today I did a test on a
lock to see if that's what would happen. I used some of my leftover
body henna (Jamila, lemon juice, tiny bit of tea tree oil) and Bozo is
exactly what it looks like so far. I know that henna on my hair
changes over time so I'm going to give it a few days to see what happens.

In the meantime, do any of you have any suggestions to make the color
come out more strawberry blonde and less orangy? I'm thinking
definitely leave out the terps. She has sensitive skin so I'd do that
anyway, but I'm not sure if that would effect the color on hair. It
doesn't seem to make a difference on mine but who knows on that baby
blonde head!
