I tested some sample hair with cassia, and another clump of hair with cassia
plus tumeric and just wanted to say that the tumeric added a definite warm/
golden tone to my cool medium brown colored hair. I will add for anyone
interested, however, that I read tumeric is a uterine stimulant so I am not sure
that it would be good to use for tinting if you are pregnant, since the skin on
your scalp would absorb it. Interestingly, I did a dab of the plain cassia and
another dab of the cassia + tumeric on the inside of my arm for an "allergic
reaction" test, and when I washed off the dried cassia/tumeric mixture, I had a
yellow spot on my skin for about a day. Then it faded away.
