If you're getting yellowish hair, you're probably not using the best
henna. My gray sideburns are dark red (they've gotten a bit darker
since the pictures were taken) and my friends and I like them that
way. Indoors, it's hard to tell which hairs are gray - outdoors, the
gray ones sparkle like little red jewels!

Try coffee, cloves, or walnut powder in your mix. It took me two
coats to get it dark enough for me; I'm up to four now, I think.
