Re: Hair gone orange! I want brownPosted by Sam on March 16, 2004 at 12:06:24: In reply to: Re: Hair gone orange! I want brown posted by Jane on March 16, 2004 at 09:38:10: Many thanks for getting back to me. I have tried black walnut hullpowder with henna mix but it didn't do anything. May be it is the way I brewed it, I added boiling water to it and left it alone for 5 - 6 days. It didn't wrok. Do you know the right way to brew it? I have also tried coffee (although instant) as well as black tea. Nothing happened again. How do you go about it yourself? I'd appreciate your advice (and anyone else out there who may also have tried same). Thanks. : Others on this forum are much more experienced that I am, but you : might try indigo, black walnut and very little henna. Remember, : henna always will give red, it is the added ingredients that give the : other colors. Also, better quality henna is supposed to give less of : an orange color, more of a deep red. You can also try using coffee : and black tea instead of water in your mix. This has worked well for : me. If you use coffee, don't use instant or decaf and use day-old : coffee. Make sure to check out the mixes and "what's in it" pages on : this website. : http://www.hennaforhair.com/mixes/ : http://www.hennaforhair.com/science/whatsinit.html : : Good Luck! : Jane : : I'm not sure what happened to my second message either. It was : going : : to be moved from the Henna forum to this site but I can't find it. : So : : here I am agian, posting it on this site. I am not sure what I am : : doing / not doing in order for my message to stay up there...? My : : message was: : : : : "I have Asian / Oriental hair which is greying around the temples. : I : : tried dying with henna and black walnut hull powder but it went : : red/orange. The wlanut powder didn't work somehow. I am not sure if : I : : soaked it right. How do I get a brown tint from walnut powder? Are : : there other ways too? Any ideas out there?? Please help!" : : : : Thanks
