I researched henna extensively before purchasing this item and recommend any interested do the same if new to henna. There's a wealth of resources via Google; one website includes the individual color properties of the various plant ingredients mixed with henna to create different shades. That being said, you can buy the individual plant powders and portion as you see fit, but I chose to (as a henna virgin) go with the boxed proportions. I made sure to find pure plant product contained therein, as some companies' claims of henna are rather loose. Light Mountain is true to its word, happily.
My hair, a naturally dull, flat brown, deepened to a dimensional chocolate shade with this Chestnut color. I opted not to use heat, as the instructions suggest doing so may bring out orange properties (in retrospect, I wish I had to bring out red highlights--the initial result was a bit murky but cleared up after a few washes, possibly due to mixing the henna with coffee).

No cancer hair color,

I've used Light Mountain Natural chestnut twice now and have been thrilled with the results. Beautiful color with no dangerous chemicals. Have a friend with rare blood cancer and found out it can be attributed to artificial hair color. Women need to learn the danger they are being exposed to with hair dyes. Am hooked now for life.
What I expected!,

I just used this product 2 days ago and followed the directions it listed. I kept the product in my hair for a total of 45 minutes and sat by the window and let the sun keep it warm. I included 2 tablespoons of yogurt to moisturize my hair as well as some all-spice to bring out the brown. No clue if either worked but figured it was worth a try.
Rinsing the product out wasn't too difficult, a little chunky and thick and left a very strong smell that it still lingering but slowly going away. I only used conditioner the first day to help moisturize it since my hair was very dry and hard to brush through after using this product. Afte 2 days of using a regular condition it's back to what I expect it to be.
The color I am very happy with. I dyed my hair lighter a few months ago and wanted something to get it all consistantly back to my original color. I highly recommend this product as a natural way to dye your hair.
