Here are questions related to Using Henna As Hair Dye.
Using Henna To Dye Hair
I was thinking of using henna to color my hair. I was born a redhead but due to fading have colored my hair for years. Can anyone tell me if it is safe to switch over to henna? Also, where can I buy it? Thanks!

Check out www.rainbowresearch.com, they have henna hair coloring in lots of shades with guides and tips for applying it. Henna is an awsome all natural alternative to hairdye and it is sooo much better for your hair and the environment! It is a little harder to apply, so you may want someone else to help you with it, if you get it on your skin it will stain much longer than regular dyes.
Using Henna to Cover Grey Hair
Package of henna.My mom's friend wants to know if henna covers grey hair. What color will her hair be? She only wants the kind bought from an India store. The natural green powder kind. She has brownish hair with grey. How does she mix it? With water? And does anyone know how long it should stay on? Does she shampoo it out or condition it? And will it cover all her grey hair? Tyvm, any info would help her. Sorry she asking a million questions.

I have used henna for several years now. I buy mine from www.lushusa.com. There are also lush stores around different states. I use the caca rouge (I think that's the name of it). It actually comes in several colors, and it will be different on everyone. It does cover my gray.
In my case, this color is very auburn! I am fair skinned and have freckles, so it fits! My natural color was brown with some auburn (years ago)...and now, much more gray!
I use a grater and grate the henna (it comes in bar form), and then mix it with boiling water. I let it cool to the point where I can put it on my hair. I use a cheap paint brush to get all the roots and be able to control where it's going! I then wrap my hair in a bag (like a plastic walmart bag) and clip with a clothes pin. I usually wrap an old towel around it to keep drips from going down my neck! I look a little like something from a swamp monster movie! lol
I leave it on for a minimum of 3-4 hours, and often just sleep in it. I wash it out with shampoo and condition as usual. I've gotten many compliments on my hair and it's so much healthier feeling since I henna instead of using dye! I have heard that once you henna, you can't go back to other hair dye, but to be honest, this is natural and I don't like chemicals, so I won't go back to it anyway! Good luck!
Hair Color for Sensitive Skin
I am a 69 year old woman with salt and pepper hair (leaning more to the pepper). I would like to color my hair but the last two times I have done so I had an allergic reaction to it. My scalp itched and one time it flaked after using. Is there any product I could use that I will not get a reaction to that is effective?
I understand Henna would work but have no idea where to buy it and really don't want to buy it online. I did buy Garnier Nutrisse but have not opened it yet. A woman standing near me when I was looking at the hair color suggested this one because it is gentler. But if someone has a better suggestion, I can return it.

Yes, well that is enough to see to decide I better grow old gracefully. My reaction was no where near that bad, just some itching of the scalp for about a week but the next time I might not be so lucky. Thank you for the information.
