: And what exactly is the difference between red body art henna and
: red hair henna bought bulk in the food coop?

The difference is ....... quality.

Body art quality has higher dye content than hair quality henna. (Its
harvested at the peak of the season, in prime growing areas, processed
and packaged carefully to preserve freshness)

Body art quality henna doesn't have sand and crud in it. (Its more
carefully sifted. The price goes up as the junk is sifted out)

You'll get better color. (because it has higher dye content)

You'll be able to rinse it out of your hair more easily. (no junk
that sticks in your hair)

The henna will go down the drain more easily after you're done.
(plumbers will cost you way more than you save on cheap henna)
