t’s such a pretty word, isn’t it? Such a pretty word, for
such a mess I made. But we’ll get to that later.
If you’re looking for an alternative to chemical-laden hair
dyes (in fact, I just read on cancer.gov that over 5000 chemicals are used to
produce hair dyes … ugh) – or if you just want shiny, bouncy hair – stop and
take a long look at henna. Just look at it. (It’s right up there.)
And in lieu of trying to write a fact-filled, informative
post, please, please take a look at these two VERY well-written, VERY helpful
posts by Hilda Blue. If you’re thinking about using henna hair dye, for the
love of cheese, use her posts as reference.
Dye Your Hair Naturally Using Henna
Henna Recipes
She’s outlined the basics on henna in ways even I can
understand.
I just wish I’d have tried to understand them all before
experimenting. In the wacky, wonderful ways of the universe, my jacked up
experience gives me authority to talk to you today about what mistakes you
SHOULDN’T make while trying to dye your hair with henna. Because I now corner the market on making
henna mistakes.
However, before we get to that, here are just a couple of
quick facts about henna as a hair dye.
Red Henna InfusionMentioned in the Bible and used by the
ancient Egyptians as a decorative cosmetic, henna is enjoying renewed
popularity as an alternative to synthetic hair dyes. There have been tomb
findings of henna markings on mummies and some evidence of Bronze Age ritual
use exists.
How its made
Product Story
Made from the best quality Persian henna. Persian henna is
known for giving the very best red tones, but is hard to get hold of. We don’t
want to use anything less so we think it's worth the trouble.
Henna has a strong smell, so we have carefully chosen
essential oils that leave your hair smelling nicely scented instead of like
dried leaves!
Quick Henna Info
The flowering plant called henna has been used for millenia as body art and
staining leather. You may have recently seen a henna tattoo (a process called
mehndi in India) on Vanessa Hudgens. I mention this because, of course, she’s
the standard of ancient body art beauty. Ahem.
True henna dyes your hair a reddish brown color. The henna I
bought wasn’t actually henna – it was a mixture of indigo, “neutral henna,” and
other plants. There were no ingredients on the container, but I can only assume
there was no henna in the mixture I used, because there were zero red
highlights left after I finished. We’re going to call it “henna” for reading
ease, though.
You can purchase henna at Mountain Rose Herbs (like me!),
natural food stores, and Nepalese or Indian shops. It will be considerably less
expensive than traditional chemical hair colorants.
Neutral henna is actually a plant called Cassia obovata –
it’s not “true henna” at all. But it gives your hair incredible shine and
bounce, nonetheless.
Henna seals the oil into your hair, leaving it super
conditioned, and it helps close off the cuticle. After a henna (true or
neutral) treatment, you can expect less frizz, more manageability, and a very
healthy shine. (I’ve even read that it helps stop dandruff and gets rid of head
lice.)
Henna color fades naturally within about 4 months, so it
won’t leave you with weird-looking roots or otherwise scary streaks.
For even more information on henna, here’s this handy post I
found on Mountain Rose Herbs – and the part I found most interesting:
