Be careful with this product - too much henna can turn your hair bright orange!! Be sure to have some Indigo on hand to counter the Henna if needed. I've been experimenting with mixing Indigo, Black Walnut and Henna powders, along with Neem and Fenugreek (for hair health) into hair dye concoctions. At first, I struggled, but am getting the balance right so that my hair turns out a nice healthy brown color (not too red, not too dark) with good gray coverage. Every individual will have to experiment to figure out the mixture that works best for their hair. Be patient, keep a record of the recipes used, the time left on your hair, and the subsequent results - and before you know it, you will figure out what works for you!! At 47 years old, my dark brown hair now has significant gray - my Dad was completely gray at 50 - and I'm seeing good results in gray coverage. Worse, because of my thyroid issues, my hair is thinning - and huge handfuls come out every time I dye my hair with a box of dye!! Yikes. I haven't used a store bought chemical dye in 3 months, and now nobody would ever know I'm using natural powders!! BEST OF ALL, MY HAIR IS SOFTER AND HEALTHIER THAN IT HAS BEEN IN YEARS!!
