When you're washing your hair, or drying it, are you still getting
some henna rinsing out or staining the towel? The only explanation I
can think of (especially with cassia in the mix) is that the henna
stuck to your roots extra-well and is taking forever to come out.
I'd try a deep treatment sort of conditioner, the kind you leave in
for five minutes or something insane like that, and then rinse really
well. If there's henna left clinging to your hair, that should get
rid of it.
