I've been henna~ing my hair, on and off, for around 15 years.
The reasons for this are:
My recipe this time was: the juice of 1 lemon, 15 drops of tea tree oil,
one packet of Henna & warm water.
Method: mix to a thick, yet spreadable consistency.
Leave to sit for an hour or three.
Then scoop into hair (use gloves!).
Coating roots first, then working down to tips.
Cover with a shower cap and then a wrapped towel.
Leave in for as many hours as you can, (All day or night if that's do-able).
Rinse out until water runs clear.
Wash normally with your choice of shampoo & conditioner.
Note: when I can get it fresh, I boil beetroot &
use the warm, RED water instead of clear water.
I get a much richer colour!
