Hi :) I did't suggest any semi-permanent color dyes because they
have chemicals that are bad for hair. I just mentioned my mother
does semi-permanent color dyes and has hennaed hair, and it doesn't
do anything. (the origninal poster mentioned you can NEVER use any
other hair dyes with henna) Sorry for the misunderstanding.

: Thanks for ideas everyone. I may try a semi-permanent color first
as
: Shelly suggested, then gradually go back to the box dyes. I also
: plan on doing a lot of apple cider vinegar rinses and oiling with
: coconut oil (by the way coconut oil is the only oil that
penetrates
: the hair shaft - just like henna does and it's excellent for your
: hair) to help me dislodge the henna a little. I hope it will help
: because I really am having second thoughts about that bleachig
: process. Thanks for all your help again.
