Henna Cosmetics Pure Henna Powder Hair Color, Brown/Red, 100g (3.5 oz)

The finest grade henna I have ever used! That's a good thing. Mixed effortlessly with a piece of thin clear plastic from the henna bag. 98 percent clump free, and clumps easily blend. Only added a splash of dark vinegar. Didn't let it cure. I did a strand test on my hair. Not runny. Left on only 45 minutes, and a bright orange sheen developed on my almost dark brown hair. I love the color. I always get compliments from strangers about my hair color. I loved the added instructions, easy to understand and read. Very professional. Do your own research, but I would suggest adding a dash of salt to help henna absorb, and lemon, lime, or vinegar to enahnce color. Vinegar for dark hair, lemon or lime for light for medium hair. No essential oils, they prevent henna from absorbing into hair. You can occasionally use a hair dryer to keep your head warm. Leave on as long as you can, minimum 4 hours. Rinse with only water to get as much henna out as possible. Use a conditioner to get out all of the henna. Do not shampoo for at least two days or longer. Blow dry hair. The color wil oxidize over the next few days. Henna is an amazing, safe hair color for natural hair. Not good for processed hair.
