(Health and Beauty) I started using permanent hair color about two years ago when I turned 40. My hair became dry, lifeless, and brittle, and I desperately missed the hair I was born with. No brand of conditioner or hair product seemed to make a difference. I even took hair vitamins. Then I came across this product on the Internet and decided to give it a try. The brown henna gave me back my old hair color, and my hair is soft and shiny again! Finally I have my hair back! I highly recommend this product! By Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Colora Henna Veg-Hair Brown 2 oz. (Health and Beauty) I have medium brown hair and generally dye it with a red henna blend. Wanting to go back to brown, I tried out this blend. It contained plenty to coat my shoulder length hair, and resulted in a lovely dark brown. It still contains some red, especially in the sun. I'm not sure if that's from the henna in this blend or my previous hair color. But the color is great!The liquids I used were coffee (to darken the color) and apple cider vinegar (for conditioning). By Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Colora Henna Veg-Hair Brown 2 oz. (Health and Beauty) Background:I used the mix on my overprocessed honey blonde hair with dark ash blonde roots. Results: because I've been using henna powder (pure and mixed) for 3 years or so on and off, I followed my own recipe: mixing the henna powder with 1/2 water, 1/4 strongly brewed chai tea, 1/4 strongly brewed dark coffee, wet set on the hair for 2 hours. The results were ok- the blonde ends turned to a medium golden dark blonde, but the dark ash blonde roots turned a dark reddish chestnut color. This faded in about 6 weeks to a washed out strawberry blonde color which blended decently into my ash blonde roots. |
