Thank u so much for the video. I was wondering , if I want it more burgandy can I use this same henna?
You did henna just right! I have used henna for many years. Since moving to the US I'm not able to find good henna lol. Will try this brand 😍. For the smell, try using aromatherapy oils. I like tea tree just because it is so good for the body and I put lemon. I only use 10 drops total, since i would keep henna on for 3hrs.
u can also add 1 egg white (well yolk smells alot ), its really helps to get soft and silky hair and also 1 tbs of greek yogurt .its works wonders
😍😍😍
great vid and it truly looks natural! I actually prefer it more 'orangey' because that's what most real 'red'heads are. The red/burgundy looks more dyed to me. Well done!
Dying a bit of your hair from your hairbrush is literally the most genius thing I’ve ever seen! 😂
Loa Lei gotta be EXTRA careful or who knows how long your skin will stay stained 😂😂😂
SAME! I have never thought of that before
Women used to collect their hair to make hair pieces for filling out an up do or to pad a hairstyle so it would look fuller.
That's hardly a new invention, at least those using henna have been doing that for ages ;)
@@loristrout4741love the color
Just think, you and ladies for 4000 years have been doing this. It’s a practical archaeological experiment as well as a link with women throughout the ages. You look gorgeous. You actually look like my auburn haired Scottish sisters who were born with hair just like that. Your eyes are SO blue too. Perhaps you were really meant to be a redhead all along! Me? For some reason I got mousebrown, but brains.....
Cute Cake she didn’t say it was a western thing...
Middle East and South Asia, from the top of my head. Probably also parts of central asia (tajikistan, uzbekistan, east turkestan). I don't know about north Africa, but since they too use henna for staining hands and feet, they might as well dye their hair with it~ The way I know it, elderly people use it their hair starts to turn white. That's why you sometimes see elderly brown people with bright orange beards and hair, it's not the natural hair color, it's henna!
I am from North Africa and we have been using henna for years .I use it to dye my hair
I, too, got mouse brown but brains
Puri
I’m from Africa and we use henna!!!!
Hairstylist advice; henna is great if you're completely committed to being a redhead and if you never want to go any lighter. If you use henna even once and you decide to go to a salon for professional color you may never be able to remove the henna. I've also seen it react in very volatile ways, such as turning the hair blue, pink, bright orange and even smoking in a foil when lightener was applied. and Yes, I've used henna many times before I became a stylist and as someone who enjoys frequent change I recommend caution 🤗
What is the way of heena removal ?
I have dyed my hair with Hanna before and loved it... Thanks for the tips and going to try it again
Yay! Good luck!
It looks stunning. I really wanna try this.
I am actually pretty much gray, so I dye my hair with henna, and it looks natural especially since I dye my eyebrows too. I use to add oil (rapsoil, but any plant oil will do it, and some lemon juice. Oil will cure the hair, and the lemon juice will make the color more bright and shinning. I buy my henna at the lokal Turkish shops, it an old Turkish tradition to dye the hair with henna.
I'm Gray and afraid to use henna because I don't want 🍊 hair!!!
i heard it is much better for results if you apply to dirty dry hair, not freshly washed wet hair,, you can add hibiscus powder, rose powder, paprika and cloves to smell nice and also for more intense red color,, some women add cinammon but cloves are my fave,, when you sweat, you will be able to smell cloves and it is very nice,,
Love the red! Very pretty. I heard about henna. Guess will be trying it. Thank you for sharing😎
Of course! Happy to help!
Thank you 🙏 nice information! I maxed with a lot of tea and coffee.
It looks really good!
Thank you so much Ashley!
The orange color suits your face so much
does the tea come inside the box? If not what tea did you use? My grandmother likes Lipton
tea will using that tea give same color results?
You look gorgeous ,love it :).
When you take a shower after dying your hair, does the color get darker the next day? Mine looks brownish now, i wanted red
I'm going to use henna but how can I prevent my hair from getting thin?
😍 Gorgeous!
That's your color!!!
Nice.
I have been dyeing my hair with henna since I was 18, I'm 66 now so you can say I have some experience using henna. So I would like to make some comments on this video. When you mix (hot water) in the henna you don't have to wait you can use it right away. Leaving the henna in your hair for 2 hours is enough to get a good color. It's not that the color will get stronger that's rubbish, it will fade a little every time you wash your hair. Another important thing you should know is that if you want a perm, or another color it will be difficult because henna is very dominant and will always come through again. But it has no chemicals in it and makes your hair more shiny and stronger. And it has super coverage on grey/white hair.
Where can you buy henna for dying your hair and is it a different product depending on if it's for your skin or hair dye ?
I always use the powder from Krishna, it's the best. But if you can buy it in a Indian or Morrocon shop it can be a better quality and gives stronger colors. When henna is old (you can't see but you will notice when you use it) it gives off less color. When you have dark or black hair it will give it a reddisch glow specially in the sunshine. If you have lightbrown or blond hair you will get a more orangy/red color. They do sell black henna too, I have no experience using it so?
You don't have a Indian restaurant nearby? Because you could ask the men working there where they get it from, ofcourse I have no idea where you live so?? who knows Amazon works.
Will the ones at Walmart or Walgreens work the same?
You might give it a try and do a test, take some of the powder put hot water (only a spoonful of henna, and some water) and try a bit on your skin for a few minutes. If it gives a strong reddish color it's good stuff.
I thought taking hair from a brush was nasty but that was the smartest idea I have never seen before. I think you just did something
I know, I kind of wanted to put in a disclaimer that I was taking hair from a brush. :/ But I'm glad you thought it was a good idea!
Caty Culp I know typically brands ask for a strand test. But I’m not going to walk around with one piece of hair chunk on my head dyed 😂
RIGHT?! That's why I went with the hair in the brush. 😂 If I don't like the color, then I don't have to walk around with a chunk of hideously colored hair haha!
That is some kind of functional wisdom on the fly!!!
Holy genius that was great
The idea of testing the color on left over hairs from your brush is genious! Why did I never come up with this idea? No more henna fails now hopefully.
always do a strand test with any type of color!!!
really smart girl!
3 year henna user here. I went grey early and my hair was wrecked from dyes. My hair has never in my life been so healthy. I literally can just shampoo it, comb it, and leave the house. No styling, no product, nothing. It's SO liberating. It's incredibly shiny and no more frizz. I wish I had done it years ago.
is there a specific brand you use?
sounds wonderful... but tell please which henna product, the brand. Thanks xx
Yes which henna do you use?
Does repeated henna look less orange?
How often do you refresh it
Ur eyes r so green, u should have been born with red hair.
I was thinking the same thing... Gorgeous eyes!!!
That is why her hair turns red in the sun. In the years of the past women were outside more gardening, walking to church, tending to laundry. She would be a redhead but the sun does damage to our skin we know that now but they didn't in the 1800's.
She looks Irish don’t you think?
@David 1119 The sun lightens my hair too, I'm blonde, but a little on the red side. When its summer and I'm outside more often, my hair lightens, and the hair underneath that doesn't get sun acces stays darker.
@David 1119 its kinda burning out the colour and fairs it, I have had blackish hair as short but when I started to growing them because of the sun they turned out to be more brown
Just some advices from a henna lover and user:
1)if you use warm, close to hot water/tea, you can actually put the henna immediately in your hair, and leave it about 3-4 hrs will do the job.
2)do not use lemon or other acid ingredients as it takes to darken up the colour faster and make it look more of a brown.
3)if you do want to keep this exact tone up, only do the roots, and once in a while the whole hair:)
4)you can put a spoon of sugar in your mix, it will soften your hair, and there will be no need of conditioner, which doesn't help the colour easily pop up the first days.
5)mix a spoon of Apple vinegar with about 2 litres of water and after washing henna out, use that as an ultimate rinse, it will leave your hair shiny and set the colour in!
DesdemonaHorror great tips, thanks! I'm doing the strand test with Chestnut and Auburn from Light Mountain. Chestnut was way too dark and I'm waiting to rinse Auburn :) Is it true you can't use chemical dyes on top of henna? Even a couple of months after doing it? What if I don't like the results??
Paula Pérez you can use chemical colours on top of henna, but it wouldn't set as on a normal base and also isn't very "healthy" for your hair.
If you want to maintain this kind of hair care routine, you have to experiment a lot!
But if you don't like the colour that is too dark, or different than what you'd like, do a hair mask with oils (sorry for the English btw I hope I'm comprehended lol). Like castor oil, coconut, olive, almond... for a few weeks and you'll notice how the colour gets off a little bit..
Another method is the beer and shea butter method lol.. so you take a beer, boil it so there's no alcohol (just warm it up if it's no-alchohol beer) and then put a spoon of shea butter in it, and apply the mixture on your hair , keep it for 2 to 3 hrs..
Also.. ask me if you need infos about other kind of henna... you can find them on Amazon but they cost a little bit more than usual :)
Omg awesome info!!! Thanks a lot!!! 💛💛💛💛💛
Paula Pérez you're welcome! :) message me for any problem/advice :*
DesdemonaHorror I dye my hair back in May. The bleach it. They left my poor hair horrible. Now is looking like orange it looks like a hot boiler exploded my hair. I’m 3 months preggo so I can’t dye my hair but I want bc it looks horrible. They told about henna is natural hair dye. But I would like it to be burgundy or reddish. The bag I bought it says dark brown. But I’m reading all these comments that say it turns out red.
After watching such videos I feel all the more amazing to be an Indian. These things come so naturally and comfortably to us. We have all seen our parents, relatives or neighbours apply henna and various home remedies on a regular basis. Did you see the amazing texture it gave to your hair after that first rinse. Stay beautiful
Will it work on black hair like Asian hair. Can I get the colour like her?
@@radziahradzi no, because henna doesn't lighten the hair
@@s.8186 Thats what I was thinking, her hair is darker too and I'm confused how dark hair became a lighter tone. I have used natural henna manny times (straight from the plant!) - but it never changed the color of my black hair.
@@radziahradzi Asians have Black or Brown hair usually. It will work but probably will darker shades of your hair, and Red reflection in the sun is definitely happening. If you have black hair, you will get a dark red brown color.
Is there a way to get a cooper tone?
I used henna in the 80's (yes I'm old :D) I wanted a really dramatic color so I put it on bleached, close to white hair and I loved it. It was intense fire orange :)
That's actually SO awesome! I love it!
You’re not old. I wish I was around in the 80s.
carinaejag ... Molly Ringwald’ish.. the hottest chick of the 80s 🤗🤩
I did this a lot in my early 20s in the 90s. My naturally blonde hair was dyed brown with white bleached sections, so when I hennaed it, it was deep intense red with sections of neon orange and yellow. So fun!
i‘d love to see pictures!
you look amazing as a redhead..completely natural. Especially with your eyebrows done!
Oh wow, that's so sweet! Thank you so much!
you are welcome! 😊👍
It's look very great! I'm wondering how long you put the henna on your eyebrows? I want to do it, but I'm a little sceptical...
would you be interested in looking after my pet 9 inch wiggling hairy weasel?..I swear I don't want to get rid of this annoying weasel..I love him very much.
you are also left handed?..also are you left eye dominant?
I think that’s the cleanest henna application I’ve ever seen! 👍🏼 The color looks awesome on you!
Oh man, thank you so much! I think the texture of it really helped. I mixed it juuust right haha.

I used henna in the past and loved the results. If you want an even bigger pop of red, add natural hibiscus tea to it or add the hibiscus powder right to the henna. It is amazing and the red is over the top!
Hi there how much hibiscus powder do you recommend to add per 100 g of henna powder? Thank you kindly
This application process is killing me! I get on my knees on the floor in front of my shower and plop it in my hair one handful at a time then message it all in. Roll it, wrap it and rinse after 2-3 hours. Work smarter, not harder. Love the video :)
Hahaha it puts me off too
Tee hee...I apply the same exact way. :). Reduce the mess!
Oh my God, the application process is killing me as well! I have done it now four times. I was using an applicator bottle I saved from a Revlon dye. However I think I’m going to try your method. Thank you kindly I am learning a lot from the comments!
This is a great video about henna! Good job and the colour suits you so well. I have been a henna head since 2010. And I too am a redhead at heart, hehe. If you don't mind I would like to add my experiences too since there is so many questions about henna.
1. You can absolutely dye chemically treated hair with henna, just wait for it to settle and fade after the last session. About 1-2 months should do it. But make sure the ingredients in your henna is just henna. BAQ henna (Body Art Quality) is a great way to make sure you get it pure. Also tends to be cheaper than henna sold as hair dye.
2. You can "safely" chemically dye hennead hair, but only if you used pure henna to begin with. If not you can have the green hair, hair falling out etc. experience.
3. You get the best result when hennaing if your hair is clean, the oils in the hair prevent the henna penetrating the hair shaft. Same way that the lotion prevented the henna from staining Caty Culp's skin. I have however hennaed on oily hair and it works, but it is not optimal.
4.When hennaing the new growth on your hair add henna just to the roots and let sit for about the same time as the first time you dyed your hair with henna. This will ensure you keep the colour consistent. If you dye your whole hair every time you will darken the ends of your hair as the henna will continue to deposit colour onto your hair. (Same way chemical dyes work.)
5. Henna does not fade. Yaaay! But your natural hair, (and maybe the henna, I don't know really) may fade from exposure to the sun. To remedy this do a henna gloss on the lengths on your hair once in a while. A henna gloss is a mix of henna and your hair treatment of choice (but no oils). I use enought conditioner to coat my entire hair mixed with a bit of ready to dye henna. How much henna depends on how much you would like to freshen up the colour.
6. Use a henna gloss to give your hair a hint of red. Very handy if you are not sure if you could handle being a full blown redhead. This also is a great hair treatment in itself.
7. Henna can be lifted from your hair, but the process is long, hard and damaging to your hair. If you go henna, you do it for life. Or at least until your hair grows out.
8. I have heard that it is best to use the same brand of henna to ensure colour consitency, but the henna I started with has long since been removed from the store I used to buy it from, a local family owned international foods store. I have tried several different brands of henna and almost all have given me great colour payoff. Only once I had a brand of henna that gave a deeper richer red. The only henna I have not been happy with was Lush Caca Rouge which I tried back in 2012. I am not trying to throw shade, just putting my two cents out there. Caca Rouge gave very little colour from what I am used to and actually faded on me. I would say stay away from that one if you are going full on henna.
9. There is no such thing as "brown henna", "black henna" or "blonde henna". You can use indigo and cassia to achieve different shades but I have no personal experience with using any of these, so I will not go into this here. Pure henna is always a shade of red though and no natural dye can bleach your hair.
"Black henna" may contain PPD which is found in chemical hair dyes and is not very good for your skin!
10. I'll just end this here because the topic of "black henna" may cause me to ramble, lol. Google it if you wanna see why.
Anyway, great job again and keep it up:)
SUCH amazing info, and you're so right about all of this! Thank you so so much!
Thank:) I am probably not right about everything, but this is just what info I have gathered and learned for myself.
I watched a video shortly after this one about henna and the lady there mixed some oil into her sample, so I might not be right about the no oil with henna dye, but hey, you learn every day:) I'll link the video if you wanna check it out.

Thank you very very much!!!!!!!!
Question. When I’ve dyed with henna my towel gets stained for months after even after I rinse and rinse forever. Is there a henna brand that doesn’t stain towels months later? I used henna hut.
Whispered Heart Designs, henna will stain natural fibers. No way around it that I know of. I suggest having dedicated henna towels and t-shirts for use with the process😊
You can add any kind of organic oils like coconut oil and olive oil to keep the hair soft and moisturized, here in egypt we do that, and we can also add a spoon of yogurt and an egg for the same reason.
Also, to make your hair red you can add Beetroot and Roselle after boiled in the water, then take the water and add it to Henna with a little of Curcuma.
For brown hair you can add: coffee, Nescafé, or Coco bodwer. enjoy!
Hi, can you tell how much coffee powder will be enough to give a brown color?
@@sauremilan1079 2 spoon ..& u can add tea also to the water
Pls is it any kind of tea bag?
Thank you for the tips!!!!
Won't the oil prevent color to absorb on the hair?
I’m a pro hair stylist and I’m very impressed with your strand test idea off the hairbrush, instead of testing a patch on the persons head or cutting a small sample from their hair like we are told to do 🤷♀️Anyways so simple but what a Great idea girl! 👍👍😁 PS YOU LOOk FAB AS A REDHEAD!! ❤️
Add some fenugreek powder and egg white for shinier and silky hair .. you can also use yogurt/curd for more conditioning
Just FYI as someone who has used henna many times, you can"t strip henna out of your hair without immense difficulty, if at all. You also should not use chemical dye over henna if you change your mind. Henna should be grown out as much as possible, even cut off, if you decide you don't want henna anymore. It's the biggest hair commitment! I cut all my hair off (long to pixie), grew out the henna as much as possible, and then it took 2-3 sessions with my hairdresser slowly lifting and toning it. Test strips were done first! Lifting henna can also go really bad, your hair can break, go stretchy, or go green. So please, be careful with henna!
Yep! Totally aware of all of this! Thank you for writing it all out for other viewers! Henna definitely requires a ton of research and thought before committing to. :)
Glad you know it! I contemplated henna for a long time and was really glad to encounter a friend who had experience using henna and told me everything so I was fully informed before taking the plunge! So just wanted to share the love and knowledge :) also I totally would have continued with henna, I loved it (I'm a natural redhead though and people didn't understand why I used henna haha) but I was moving to Japan and I didn't want the hassle of trying to source it. So I planned the de-henna-ing months in advance! Chopping all my hair off was step one!
If it goes green you used a bad quality of henna with added chemicals..pure henna stays copper I use bleach after 100% henna to highlight my hair and it works wonders.
I think henna is so much better for your hair than hair dye. Not to hate on hair dye, but I used to have the worst allergic reactions to it. I have darker hair, so I use a bit of indigo, but i love the natural color henna gives my hair in the sun. It is more majestic than any hair dye, and my hair has been in better condition sincing starting my henna journey back in 2016.
I was going to post the same thing! Lol you can have a metallic sulfate reaction, which is where your hair and scalp can actually burn/melt off if you don't tell your hairdresser.
Welcome to Henna! I have been using henna for 8 years. I get compliments on the color all the time. I love it and will never go back. I do my roots every 6 weeks and then my whole head every 12 weeks. One tip I have.. buy a big bag, make the whole recipe, let it develop and then freeze it in portion sizes! When I need to color my hair now I just pop 1 (roots) or 3-4 (whole head) portions in the microwave. And bam, instant henna. Works every time.
How big are the portion sizes? What kind of container do you put them in?
As I watched this I wondered if you could touch up roots. Thank you for adding this. I haven't taken the henna plunge yet. Been dye free for over 6 years now. Just toying with the thought of using henna.
How much henna do you have in each portion? Like a cup? Fistfull? What amount is a big bag? You've inspired me to try for myself & I would love to learn more.
Omg this is so useful!thank u
Do you have a specific brand you would recommend?
A tip that has been recommended by many is to use a blow-dryer on your locks, after your first decent rinse; there's something about the heat which encourages the 'development/blooming' progress towards your final color result. It worked for me.
its called oxidization and it will happen throughout the life of the hennaed hair- using heat and hot tools on the hair will darken it. So if you straighten your hair regularly, henna may not be the best choice
Arab women use henna because it is healthy for hair I love you from Jordan ♥️🇯🇴
What she used exactly plz ..i'm an arabic girl
Does it help with hair fall and thickening too?
I really want to start dyeing my hair with henna, but I'm scared about any adverse effects
No they are no effect because is a natural!!!!!
Good luck 👍🏿
@@khantayesha
There was a haddith from our prophet mohammed (r) recommended the henna and another thing that I don’t remember to dye our hair so it absolutely doesn’t damage our hair give it a try
you can Google map local Pakistani grocery store in your area and get 20 times better Henna for 3-4 dollars per box
Looks beautiful!
Quick tip - if you use tea, let it cool before you mix, otherwise you risk "killing" the henna. Henna is pretty delicate and too much heat can ruin it.
I know this is kind of old but thanks for the tip about cooling the tea
I LOVE Henna. It gives you the shiniest most spectacular shade of red. It is stunning in the sunlight.
Thank you! I agree! I'm super impressed with how it turned out. :)
I have no intention of dying my hair but I just watched because your eyes are so stunning. Great video!
That is seriously sooo sweet! Thank you so much!

We in here in pakistan use pure henna and that thing is damn cheaper here ..like 1kg for 1 dollar approx
And only 1 hour is enough
is always nice to get knowledge from those where henna comes from. thank you maham.
@@franciscavanommeren1709 in my country old ladies use henna to cover grey hair
we use it mainly in our body with drawings and stuff
So luckyy in my country not even sell pure henna powder
@@mia-chan1905 get online amazon- light mountain
I've used both natural henna, and professional synthetic hair dyes, and I prefer henna hands down. It doesn't dry out my hair and the grassy smell while applying it is so much more pleasant than the ammonia that synthetic dyes require. It does fade though, to a weird sort of orange, so when my hair was long, it was such a chore re-dying all the way to the tips.
I’ve used henna for years and I love it. I mix cinnamon and hot six oil in with the henna and hot water. I love the fact that it colors my gray hair red and looks like I have red highlights.
CAUTION!! What Alison Grant said is true!! Coming from a trained cosmologists Henna color WILL NOT come out!! So definitely make sure your committed to the color!! Cause if your indecisive, or like to try new things all the time this is definitely not for you!
Nicole Cyr i have brown-black hair would anything even happen if i was to dye it with henna??
Büsra Kara, so I'm not sure what your end goal hair color is. But Henna haircolors should not lift/lighten your hair at all. So it depends on what color of henna dye you are planning to use. With your hair being so dark, it may just add a tone of that color to your hair.
Hey there. As you can see my hair is pitch black. Can I have any kinda color on my hair without damaging it with bleach. I just love the deep burgundy color so much
As someone who has died their hair with Henna for more than 50 times I can say with absolute confidence that this is not true at all. Firstly Henna will fade away after about 30-35 washes. Secondly your hair keeps growing so your natural hair will eventually replace your dyed hair. Please dont misinform people Nicole
Firstly what you are saying is true! Any hair color in the world that exists fades. A color that doesn't fade is impossible. And of course your Natural Regrowth will lighten or color. But the piont that I was trying to make is that if you are someone that likes to change your color frequently (Example: a brunette that occasionally likes highlights in the summer) that part that was colored with henna even if it has grown out will not lift to a pretty blonde color.
Oh yes, that dead grass smell! Ah the memories. :D
My mom used powder-form henna to dye her hair after she started to get really bad allergic reactions to the chemical in most permanent hair-dyes. She learned a few tricks, like if you have lighter coloured hair (like her grays) and don't want your hair to come out bright orange, until the colour evens out after a day or two, mix coffee with the henna and it will make it less vibrant and more brown. Also, another way to dye your hair in a natural way, like henna, is to use indigo, it's the stuff they normally use to dye jeans blue, it may come out blue or green on it's own though, but if you want a dark-brown, dark redish-brown, or even black, use it with the henna. She buys and applies the indigo and the henna separately, btw. :)
Omg it was so painful to watch u apply that henna !!! There’s an easy way start from crown n deposit hair round. There’s even a vdo on that. Almost no mess n very quick n easy !!!!
It is very good to see this video catching a. ton of views. I have been using Henna for coloring my hair for 19 years now. My hair started greying when I was a teen and being an Indian, Henna was the first and natural choice to hide grey hair. Now that in my mid thirties, most of my hair is grey but it all looks red, thanks to Henna. I have people asking me if I do red highlights on my hair all the time. No one believes I naturally dye my hair. The best part of using Henna is that I can style my hair the way I like, I oil my hair all the time and naturally deep condition it without worrying about losing the color of my hair. A lot of my friends use cosmetic dye and they cant condition their hair naturally at all leaving their hair slaves to chemical treatments. Henna is the best. The negative side I see is the need to keep it on for 3 -4 hours to get the hair colored completely. Time Consuming if you are in hurry. But I always believed it is worth it. I always use Lemon Juice mainly because it kind of offsets the dryness / damage excessive soaking results in. I suggest avoiding hot water / Tea / yogurt if your main purpose is coloring.
My mom used to put henna in my hair when I was a child, it's a traditional thing in Middle East 😍♥️ we start putting it since age 5-6 years, I love the smell of it but it always dries my hair I do it from time to time now, a great video/hair color 😍👍🏻
You can repeat Henna application as many times as you want till you get the color you desire. Also, you can mix it with other natural ingredients to get more colors. We do it here in Morocco a lot.
What is best to achieve copper orange?
In India,one can find a henna plant in most of the traditional households and it has been used as a hair conditioning and colouring agent for like decades! Here, its a very common method that people use for colouring their grey hair or prematurely aged hair! Besides being a natural dye it also has ayurvedic or medicinal properties.It aids in hair growth and makes hair stronger and also helps in reducing scalp itchiness. Even people with naturally dark hair use it for its other benefits apart from its dying properties.
I love how it’s a mix of dark brown( like a deep chocolate)brown and ginger.
This is the color I like and want
You have the most beautiful eyes that I've ever seen!!! And also you use the same dish soap as my best
friend😂😂
Haha small world! And thank you so much!
I love how my brown hair has a reddish shine in the sun. And now that there are non-brown hairs, I have red highlights. I'm lucky I have my husband to help apply 😊
I love henna! have been using it for a few years now. I mix it with coffee for a darker more red hue. Mix it the night before leave it in a closed container (old yogurt container) in the fridge, I have been getting the best results if I allow it to develop for at least 8 hours. Then I leave it in my hair for at least 4 hours. It is a long process but well worth it considering the how healthy it is. Thank you for this video, have been looking for a tutorial to teach my husband to do it for me ;-)
So smart! I love your style! ❤️
I henna my hair and this is a great video for beginners. One tip: henna will build up over time and darken if you keep putting it on all of your hair. After the initial application, all you ever need to do is your roots. You can also freeze your left over henna for use next time. I get three applications out of one package, making this very economical. It averages $4 per application. $10 for my henna and $2 for the lime juice to mix it with.
Plus freezing henna= instant dye release, so I thaw it in the fridge, and it is ready to use! I mix mine with lime juice too 🙂
I doubt you will see this comment after 5 years, however I try :) if the colour darkens ove time with more applications then how does it work if it fades into an orange colour? If you only colour the roots then the rest will stay lighter?
@brigittakosa6513 in my experience, my henna never faded. It started out kinda orange, then after a few days, oxidized into a nice darker red. If just depends on what your hair color is. I had dark brown, so my red was deeper. If you put it on blonde, it will be brighter. I had to stop because my hair is too grey and it was getting very orange.
@@veronicahill7552 thank you for responding. I'm very undecided as I've lost a lot of my hair due to an autoimmune disorder. I haven't dyed my hair for more than a year. I have my own dark brown colour but it is cool toned and it's mixed with grey around 15%. From my ears down it has more red tone from the previous colouring. I'm concerned about fading... I don't want red tint or hue as it doesn't suit me however I also wouldn't like to lose more hair due to chemical process even though the colouring which my hairdresser used didn't contain ammonia or PPD.
@brigittakosa6513 you won't have to worry about it fading. Once it oxidizes, it stays. Henn Amadeus my hair very healthy, but it's a commitment. You can't do any chemical services over it without risk of it being damaged.
You can add essential oils to your henna if you don't like the hay smell! Also you can add aloe vera powder if your henna needs a moisture boost, it may make the red less vibrant though.
Who’s watching with hennah on their head
The final color looks soooo lovely on you! Thank you for sharing the process for those of us who are curious about henna.
When I was in high school I would sleep with it over night :D my hair is dark brown. Everyone loved my red hair
An Indian friend of mine said to add brewed coffee to brown it down a little
your eyes is so beautiful😣💖
That is SO sweet! Thank you!
definitely true! 😲👀👏👏👏
AFNAN * Not to disrespect you but proper English is always good to learn.... no matter how old we are. So that said; Your eyes ARE so BEAUTIFUL. In this type of sentence when you are talking about a singular item then you use the word IS.... two or more item's , like eyes, then you use the word ARE. Just a happy suggestion sent your way so in the future, like when your out on a date with beautiful eyes....You can impress her with your proper English and your smarts 😄
B Eppard I'm not good at English but I'll learn it ، thank you 😊 💖
B Eppard jerk.
I love henna. ❤️❤️ I'm allergic to most chemical hair dyes (they make my skin slightly puffy), so henna is a nice alternative.
I have the same brown color... it’s looks like a great healthier option, just wish it could get a more bright orange/red tone. Does anybody know a trick for that? Thknx
I've gone a year now growing out henna from my hair but now all I want is to henna again. My hair has never been as shiny and as healthy as it was when i was using henna. I never had dandruff when I was using and my hair always grew really fast. My natural color is a dirty blonde so compared to red I have growing out it just looks dingy. I might go back to henna.... Oh my god it has ruined my life lol
It's all about what makes you happy! If that's henna, go for it! If it's growing it out, that's fine too! :)
It looks lovely! I'm a natural redhead and have been spending a lot of time and money at the salon to cover my grey. I used to use henna when I was younger and I'm going back. It's messy but works beautifully. Now I just have to figure out how to style and cut my long, thick locks. ~haha~ Thanks for the tips, inspiration. Gingers rule!
It's been about 8 months now, I was curious how the henna turned out / has been going?
this actually works and its pretty strong my friend(shes in her 5os ) used henna a couple of times i guess twice every month or so ,she went from light brown, copper,reddish,orange thru the process in a couple of!months Now she has completely orange carrot i laughed a little cuz it would even look red/dark pink tone shes started looking a little punk 🎸 , super bright so she stopped using it Not needed anymore and her hair just stood like that since then! it will fade a bit but still look orange/copper enough!!! trust me and just never use it again she doesn't need it anymore
Beautiful on you ❤❤❤! When I apply henna, it turn my hair much darker but yours turn on light. How come😅😅😅?
And your hair looks amazing, your eyebrows also. I noticed that right away. You are just a natural beauty and I love that. Keep up the great work hun!
You're seriously SO sweet! Thank you so much!
Yooooo the hairbrush trick though, thank you so much lok
I'm dying my hair red with henna too. Thank you so much for this video! It's so helpful!
Your color turned out absolutely gorgeous! I henna'ed my hair hoping for an auburn tone, and it came out pretty well. My hair isn't as full and dark as yours naturally... I have a lot of gray which turned sort of strawberry blonde after henna. Because I have some brown and some gray, I ended up with a sort of two-tone effect, which I actually do like. I made a video about henna'ing my hair too! Anyway I just found your video today. It is very thorough in explaining what henna is and how it works. I truly adore the results you achieved! 💖
Just to add to the others commenting about bleaching after henna. I’ve used body art quality henna & indigo for years. I just got blonde highlights without any problem. My color lifted without difficulty. The reason for this is because the henna I used was excellent quality with no metallic salts or added chemicals. I didn’t tell my hairdresser because 1) they don’t know anything about henna. 2) they wouldn’t touch me if I told them I had henna in my hair 3) I’ve done this before with highlights and also alternating Demi/permanent color with henna and indigo. I did my research before and knew it would come out fine. If I wanted to I could henna and indigo over my highlights to get a whole new look.
What henna brand are you using?
Girl give us the brand name 🙏
This the only video on henna that I found helpful .👍👍 =3
Aw thank you! I'm glad you found it helpful!
Looks absolutely Great ! Interesting about the Lemmon juice..., I read this darkening Hennah tones, not lightening ! Thank you for the tip of where to order Henna! ; )
I just applied henna to my hair. It looks like I butchered someone in the bathroom 😅
Hello dear....I'm from India....I would like to say that's not the way to mix and apply henna.....initially boil water add tea if u want dark color u can add coffee....but if u add tea strain the water ... add henna powder mix well and leave for 7-8 hours(no need to cover the bowl) .In the morning just before application add egg white, fresh yogurt 2 spoons mix well and apply on the hair. After rinsing ur hair .... dry it and then oil your hair leave for one day or atleast 1 hour and wash your hair with shampoo....this is done to avoid itchy scalp
It did work though lol
OMG your eyes ... wonderful ♥
I've never seen this eye color in my life. and your hair too ^^
Thank you so much! You're so sweet!
RIGHT!! I was watching and those eyes are so damn mesmirisinggg♥️♥️♥️ it’s such a nature eye color 🙆🏻♀️
I’ve always wanted red hair and I’m getting it done by a hair dresser for the first time, but I’m seriously considering doing henna and not paying $80+ every month to get my hair re touched.
Henna is much healthier than using chemicals and is a natural conditioner. I am a natural redhead, but over time my hair has become dull so the henna brings back the color of my youth. Henna is a commitment, but less expensive and healthier if you think you want to remain a redhead.
The best method of henna, which is the way our Arab grandmothers do in Saudi Arabia. Try it. You will not regret it. It softens the hair, gives it vitality and makes it healthy. Boil three red tea beans in a cup of water and add one tablespoon of cocoa and one tablespoon of Nescafe to make you a beautiful brown color. Add to the water mixture the juice of half a lemon or less. Add 6 tablespoons of henna and a teaspoon of cloves Add two tablespoons of yogurt and two tablespoons of mayonnaise and let it rest for a whole day Then put it on the hair for 2-4 hours, then rinse it with conditioner only, and the next day, put a suitable oil for you for an hour and rinse it with shampoo Awesome recipe
Im an asian I colored my hair red and received a lot of compliments but the problem is it faded so fast it doesn’t look good when it fades
My fave is Auburn also, me finding this is so perfectly timely
If you want to make red henna, use hibiscus flower tea with lemon juice to make henna
Randomly found this video and HOLY crap - your eye colour ist SO stunning!
I used Henna for 6 years and am now platinum blonde. I bleached it every 2-3months and did fun colors like pink during the orange stage. Yes Henna is hard to get rid of, but it's not impossible. After 2 years of blonde I'm thinking about going back to henna :)
Will henna turn gray hair permanently red too? Since I have some gray hair now, whenever I go with boxed red dye, the gray hair turn gray again very quickly. Do salons offer henna as an option?
Tia - it turns my grays into a beautiful Copper
It turns my mums greys copper too. Try with hair from your brush like the vid showed. No salon would offer the service because they said they can't ever guarantee the end colour so she's had to find Indian ladies willing to do it for her.
I may just be alone in this, but I find that henna actually dries out my hair from it's normal soft texture and doesn't last for more than a week or two at most. I do have to wash my hair daily however (my scalp and hair get super oily) so that could be contributing to the loss of color.
Hmm what kind of henna are you using? 100% pure henna would take a tooonnn to remove once it settles, so is it possible you're using a henna that isn't pure? That might be a pretty big contributing factor to how quickly it fades, as well as the fact that it leaves your hair quite dry.
Mo, i have been using Henna and Henna gloss for years, but because of its drying tendency, you must use a moisturizing deep conditioner after Henna application. I leave my deep conditioner on for 30-60 minutes.
Mo henna does dry the hair out that's why you need to oil it after
I actually have only ever used light mountain natural. My hair probably just doesn't take the color that well...I might try leaving it on for a longer duration like you did in the video and go as long as I can without shampooing it.
Oiling is must before u put henna on ur scalp or u can add oil to ur henna paste...it will prevent the dryness of ur hair after application of henna...
I have used henna for about 15 years if not for colour but definitely as a good mask. Love the colour it gives. I love the copper colour it gives to my whites
Heyyy CAN ANY ONE CLEAR MY DOUBT SOOO DO I HAVE TO LEAVE IT FOR 3-4 HRS TO ACTIVATE IT OR CAN I JUST APPLY IT ON MY HAIR
I might try this but I'll hold off until my week off for the holidays. Not sure I want to smell like a barn at the office, haha.
Definitely, the smell is a bit off putting for sure. I smelled like a hay bale for 3-4 days.
I've found that rinsing it with apple cider vinegar after shampooing helps get rid of the smell. It won't wash out the henna to shampoo right after applying it. Now I only smell like a barn for the first day when there is still some residue from the mud itself. I notice it, but other people don't. Also if you have hard water, it can make henna smell stronger because of the minerals. I have very hard water and now use pure lemon juice in the mix. But if you think that may dry out your hair, try distilled water. The minerals in my water can add kind of a sulfur/iron/metallic smell that was even more off-putting than the hay smell.
I'll a hundred percent try this. Thanks for the amazing tutorial, Caty!!!
Your eyes are gorgeous! Red really suits you,
You're so sweet! Thank you!
Hello .. I really liked the color of your hair,, and am happy that you are using henna it is soooo healthy.
Anyway, my grandma is from Yemen which uses the henna as a main dey and treatment thing from ages. My grandma had always said henne is preferred to be applied at day time and never sleep with henna as it becomes so cold around the head.
Also it is advised to add some yogurt/coconut milk to the mixture to avoid the dryness. if you need treatment only without color you may add oil but it will not be colored as the oil will prevent the process.
:)
Oh my god your eyes girl. YOUR EYES. WHAT
never use metal utensils or metal containers! just for anyone out there starting out. thanks for the video, I love seeing everyone's processes!
Henna is just ground up plants. It doesn't react with metal like oxidative hair dyes do.
I'm a natural redhead,I'm 46 still no grey
That's awesome! I'm jealous!
We redheads don't go grey. We go lighter shades of red, to strawberry blonde then white 💁
My grandma is a redhead,70 and still not grey! Same for my mum in her 50s, I unfortunately ended up with brown hair thanks to my dad :(
You ladies are lucky! 💕.. Im 28 and already have a few greys which is why im looking for a natural way to color my hair. Its funny I always died my hair in my teens just to change the color without a care in the world. But stopped a few years ago. Finally back to my natural color and now im going to HAVE to color it just to hide the greys.. #GettingOlderSucks
Lucky you Wendy, I've been going grey since I was 24. As Scottish Rose said, natural redheads don't really go grey, they fade to white. It's because of your strong genetics.
