This is the perfect tutorial I was looking for. I’m a natural redhead who’s losing pigment as I enter my 30s. I have tried semi permanent glosses to boost my colour but they all washed out within 5 days. The henna gloss is the perfect solution as it’s pigmented but allows dimension. And of course, it doesn’t cause the same damage as other dye methods. I’m definitely going to implement this next month when I top up my roots!
I think it will definitely work to boost your red! Just be sure to strand test and remember more conditioner in the ratio = less intense dye! Also the dye always looks a bit more saturated the first couple days. Happy henna-ing! 💓
I am allergic to hair dye. So I also dye my grays with henna and indigo. It is definitely a ritual. Also it allows me to grow my hair long and luxurious at my age. Almost 60.
You're totally selling it! I've been coloring/having my hair colored since 15 (and I'm about to hit 60) and I'm used to the mess etc., and this sounds like fun; I've had every shade of red, black, brown, blond, purple & more. But I'm lucky to have a younger sister who is an amazing stylist, and she would kill me, so I'll just live the henna life vicariously through you. I do think that it looks like you were born a redhead, it goes so well with your skintone.
I found this after I hennaed my hair 😂 but I did essentially exactly what you did. Half conditioner and left in for 40 minutes. I’m a natural auburn/redhead but fading at 29 with some white hairs. It covered all my white hairs!! It’s pretty orange in the front but I’m sure it will chill out over the next few days. I love it!
Indigo is all natural and beneficial for hair. I use it to mix in with the henna for warm dark brown hair. You can use various percentages for different colors. There are herbs like Amla or cassia that can lessen the warmth of henna mixes if one chooses.
Henna sooq recommend not diluting the henna with oil or condish if you want to dye your hair in order to get the max color payoff - what do you think? They do recommend mixing with oil and condish(gloss)of course if you want to use it as a treatment more for the health/appearance of the hair.
If you keep doing your whole head with henna it's gonna eventually turn a deep burgundy, purple color. Henna doesn't fade so you're just darkening it more and more each time you do a full head.
Very true! With a henna gloss for an hour, it’s a lot more forgiving though. I don’t always bring the extra mud to the ends. It’s resulted in more of a rich copper. I’m switching to just roots going forward to opt for more of a strawberry blonde though it will take a while to get there lol
Thank you!! I actually cut my own hair! If I went to a hair dresser I would say, a little bit of layering around the face and long-ish wispy bangs that can be worn in the front or pushed to the side curtain-style. Hope that helps!
Loved your video. Subbed immediately. Sorry if I missed it - but, how often do you henna your hair? I started henna dyeing in my teens. Sadly moved to the chemical dyes. Now in my 50’s and greying, I’m back with a bang! ❤your hair!
Hello! Is it the more often you re-apply it, the darker it gets? Also, do you know if you can’t use chemical dyes after with indigo, cassia, and amla? Or is it also with henna? I’m doing research and everybody says something different
It will definitely get darker! Especially if you are doing full applications. Since I use a henna gloss for only like 45 mins, it’s a lot more forgiving if I re-apply. I’m not sure about the chemical dyes with the other plant powders. Some people have had success dyeing over henna, it just has to be done very cautiously and it’s a risk!
Hi, this is a very helpful video. I would like to use henna. I'm a strawberry blond but greying. How did you mean with henna and conditioner ...are you adding a tablespoon of dry powder to conditoner? I love your hair!!
So after you have done the dye release overnight (adding water to henna), you add conditioner the next morning before applying to your hair to make the henna paste smoother and to slightly dilute it. Be sure to strand test as henna on grey hair can create quite a vivid orange. It might make for some very nice highlights actually!
Not currently! My eyebrows are pretty fair so it’s easy to tint them red with brow products. I’m planning to try putting henna on them next time I dye it though. The thing about henna is, it will never lighten hair, only change the colour!
Ooh yes henna is not a route I recommend lightly! Only for those very committed and interested. I hadn’t heard that about curly hair though. In forums some people say it relaxed their curls but I suppose there are so many different hair textures!
Your hair color is absolutely perfect! I was really waiting for this video. For everyone interested I really recommed @HennaSooq channel: she is an absolute expert and I believe she has a playlist specific for those who are hennah beginners. She will explain everything and I learned so much from her!

The whole henna process seems like such a witchy ritual too!
True!!

Great tutorial, this tone looks great on you!
OMG I was obsessed with this book! my little high school self is so giddy about you mentioning it 🖤 Love your hair!
I knew someone else would know it! I recently re-read the series, so nostalgic for me now! 💓
Love your hair! The color suits you so well! Thanks for sharing the process and for sharing the baby pics!! So cute ❤
Thank you!! 😊

Haha, hairstylists HATE henna! 😂

That’s a great way to brighten up the colour! It will definitely settle after a couple days 💓

I once added a touch of indigo for a deep auburn!
I have used Lush and Henna Guys in the past and been happy with them both ❤
Good to know!!

Yes, diluting it dilutes the colour pay off for sure but that’s why I like it! It creates a more natural red rather than being super vivid.
So helpful!❤. Thank you for the inspo. You have gorgeous hair!

I just asked you about your hair and then found this video. thanks!!!😊
❤❤❤so beautifull i just start using henna ❤❤
Once you figure it out, it’s great!!
Love it and love your hair! Also love your haircut, so I was wondering what do you say to the hairdresser to end up with this haircut? 😍
Thank you!! I actually cut my own hair! If I went to a hair dresser I would say, a little bit of layering around the face and long-ish wispy bangs that can be worn in the front or pushed to the side curtain-style. Hope that helps!
Love it, thanks so much! 🙏❤️
How mush more Hanna hair color did you use the first time
So hard to say because it was 10 years ago! There’s lots of handy guides out there about grams to use per length/hair thickness though!
Loved your video. Subbed immediately. Sorry if I missed it - but, how often do you henna your hair? I started henna dyeing in my teens. Sadly moved to the chemical dyes. Now in my 50’s and greying, I’m back with a bang! ❤your hair!
Ooh glad you’re back using henna! I would say it’s the classic every 6-8 weeks. My roots aren’t too obvious luckily
@@evangelinemolly Thank you so much for responding! 🫶🏽from South Africa 🇿🇦

@@evangelinemolly thank you so much!! I'll try a strand test first.
do you do anything to your eyebrows to make them match better? Im asking because my eyebrows are quite dark, Thanks.
Not currently! My eyebrows are pretty fair so it’s easy to tint them red with brow products. I’m planning to try putting henna on them next time I dye it though. The thing about henna is, it will never lighten hair, only change the colour!
Apple cider vinegar brings out the red tones on the Hannah
I do it for hours on my hair
I used to know people who did that! I don’t know how you manage, I’m always so anxious to get it off 😂 But definitely better for a richer dye
I never had conditioner because it takes away the color
Yes! I like it because it does a softer dye!
As a curly haired girl, I promise it is not as fun as it seems, the maintenance is hardcore otherwise you look like a frizz ball
