Henna comes from small shrubs called Lawsonia, native to the Middle East, West Asia, and North Africa. Its used for body art as well as hair conditioning. Its an alternative way to color your hair (reddish/brown) and it adds strength and body to the hair. Hope that answers your question. Let me know if you have more...I love talking about henna!
Thanks for the video... I did the henna and got great results. My gray is covered (horay) and I am loving the results after 3days. The initial color of my gray was brassy. Next time I will add a small aount of indigo. Will be trying this on my daughters hair.
I don't think there is any harm in keeping it in overnight. However, be mindful of the henna drying out, which makes it extremely difficult to rinse out later. I suggest covering your hair to make sure no air can enter and no heat can escape. You want the hair to remain warm and moist. You may even want to make the temperature slightly warm in your house so the henna won't dry out. Hope this was helpful. Let me know of any other questions you have :)
I just as acidic juices. Other people add a variety of things to their henna. I followed directions from the mehendi website. But its totally up to you. Try experimenting to see what you like :)
ok, now i want to try it :) can henna lighten too much? i have that hair with redish-brown tint on the ends so coloring always scared me....always wanted to "highlight" tho

I'm so glad you had good results. I recently did another application myself. It was great! I think I want to try the indigo as well some day.
