Hairstylescut :: Hair Color Henna, Natural Hair Color
Henna is a natural vegetable tanning that stains the hair, I love the
idea of using a natural colour on my hair, but I must confess, henna
scares me. That's because, while henna generally produces some
shade of red, you won't know exactly what shade until after you've
completed the treatment.
If you don't like the results, you're stuck -
you can't remove the colour, nor can you use any of the more
conventional hair colour formulas to hide the colour.
Benefits of Henna Hair Color
That said, I have seen some amazing hennaed hair. Henna seems to strengthen strands, making them shiny and healthy looking.
Furthermore, the people I know who use henna swear that, since their conversion, they've never had a split
end. So it comes down to this that if you like red and you want
to try henna, get help. If you can't find a henna expert in
your area, get on the Internet and start surfing until you
know everything possible about henna's behaviour.
Tip for Henna Coloring and Dry
Do not mix henna with conventional
colour. This creates a chemical reaction
that turns hair green or a greenish black,
or can make the hair break off.
Using henna usually produces a reddish tone, but the
actual shade will depend on your natural hair colour and type.
