Hi, I'm Kat, and I make lots of DIY videos, about everything from DIY jewelry, home decor, gifts, and crafts, to Gluten Free recipes, No-poo hair care, DIY hair extensions, how to make sugaring wax and arabic wax for natural hair removal, and how to make a bracelet out of a toothbrush. Here you can watch videos about friendship bracelets, whitening your teeth with activated charcoal, or even skip on over to my second channel for Story Time videos and vlogs!
Shiny, Pretty Things!

You're welcome everyone.
haha wow
I just did henna on my hair last night and I am soooo happy with the results! I am a natural redhead but the older i get the duller my red has been. I will NEVER dye my hair red with dye again. My hair looks shiny and healthy and I wish I had known of it sooner. I'm really surprised more professionals don't use it for their clients wanting red. It was easier to apply than store bought dye and I was able to sleep with it on and sooo much easier to rinse out of my hair. AWESOME STUFF!!!
Katie C Salons are taught that henna is really bad as for your hair. They are either going by the old henna with chemicals metals and salts added or when they are trained by the big cosmetic companies they don’t want to promote natural hair care. Bad for business. Or when some clients come in wanting a major change in their hair it’s more difficult for them to achieve.
Hey I know you might not see this! But I am in the same boat.. natural redhead facing a real dull head of hair these days.... but discovered this and super excited to try it out! just wondering, do you mix with casia or indigo? or use pure henna only?
Go for it. You can start with something lighter and move to darker; if you get orange panic when you first see the colour, remember using a blow dryer will darken it up and it will darken up in its own over time - henna oxidizes. But as a natural redhead, you really can't go wrong with henna.
Hi , I'm from Saudi Arabia and henna is common here since really a long time ago so we use henna with sider plant that you can find as a powder and mixed with just water and we apply it on all your hair from the roots till the edges of your hair and after that you wash it with shampoo and conditioner and leave it till it dries naturally and brush it and after that apply olive oil on all your hair do this routine once a week , you'll notice an incredible volume to your hair and fast length. I think arab people are known for their hair :) by the way the routine I mentioned is the old classic way
Interesting! Thanks for sharing.
Can u please tell me from where in saudi arabia I can buy a good henna ..I live in geddah .. thanks
What is this sider plant? Please.
hind nawaf Thank you so much! ❤️
hind nawaf Do you lnow if it can be found in USA 🇺🇸?
here is the Arab way of doing it :) mix pure henna with water only let it rest for 6 hours put it on your hair leave it on your for 30 hours YES! (u may want to rock a hat or something) don't use plastic wrap on your head only fabric,after that wash your hair without shampoo, then mostrise with oil and wash it with shampoo the next day
extra tip (If you leave the pure henna stays on long enough to the point of drying on your head it will double up the thickness of every single hair)good luck
Huda Abdull Salaam Aleykoum, i usualy just leave it in overnight, does it have to be 30 hours or do you think it will be alright if i just leave it in until it is completly dry?
overnight is great for sure , but leaving it until it drys really makes the difference when it comes to" thickening" and getting volume of the hair that's already there,
i remember the older women in faimly would leave it for a couple of days😅 just make sure it's 100% pure ....leaving it until it drys will do the job 👌
Ok thank you verry much!!
I will definetly try it. Thank you for this tip. :)
Huda Abdull i allways do this was bit i am a kurd
I just rediscovered your channel again. After several years with very long hair I made the decision to go extra short because illness had weakened and thinned my hair so much. Your hair is so beautiful. You've gone through so much, thank you for sharing that. It gives Mr hope that my hair can be healthy again.
Its been 4 years already?! Wow. I remember watching your first tutorial and that was what i used to do mine. You're the reason i do half henna and cassia, and use camomile tea. Works a treat! Thank you!!
Your hair is gorgeous, I'm glad you're feeling better
This was a PERFECT review, demo and explanation of how to properly use THE RIGHT kind of henna at home. THANNKK YOUUU SO MUCH!💙💙💙💙
I think I will try to part my hair this way next time I do my roots, it looks more simple to do that, than all that sectioning I've seen in a lot of videos. Thanks for showing us that !
I actually had a pheochromocytoma too and started using henna to combat the major frizz, as a result. Thanks for the cassia tip!
Very helpful! I just started using henna and am impressed with the results, but I was wondering how to handle the root situation. Your explanation was great. Thanks!
Her skin looks to marshmallowy plush and soft and plump. It's so even and smooth and soft looking. Very pretty 💕 stay out that sun girl. It's working for you 👍
Bahahahahaa. I sound like the stay puft marshmallow man!
Manifesting Moni mine is the same hehe and I am 33.5 years of age I definitely stay away from sun.
I use Henna and Indigo and do it much the way you do, with slightly darker results. I love it, and it's so much healthier!
I had the same thing, TE bc I bled internally from ulcers from a vicious stomach bacteria!! Take care of yourself!!! ❤️❤️
Great info :) Henna was my gateway into DIY hair color. There was a period of a few years in college where my hair was bright red. I finally mixed it with indigo (found you through your henna/indigo video) and I've been dark brown ever since. You make red hair look so good though, it makes me want to try to ease back into the warmer tones.
every arab and northafrican giving tipps 😂😂 i swear i wanted to say something too hahaha henna is love ❤
VoldiOldie Artichokie are you SERIOUSLY calling out someone called Nihal Ibu for using a racial slur? I mean come on man.
Loved this video thank you for sharing hair looks so lovely and healthy
So glad you are healthy and that health scare is behind you now Kat! Been struggling with health myself. I hope all is well with you, you look beautiful as always! Congratulations on your marriage!
Thank you! Best of luck to you.
Thank you for replying back. ❤️
OMG your hair is gorgeous 😍😍
Kat after you wash your hair rub and massage small amount of olive oil and use coconut oil alternating . Also using olive oil an hour or so to before you wash your hair works as a conditioner
You’re so beautiful and your hair is same! ❤️
You're hair looks beautiful... thank you for sharing xxxxx
thank you for posting an update!! ♡♡♡ xoxo
I love the color of your eyes, your hair is also beautiful
I love that style dress on you! Very complimenting I was so excited when I saw this video and that it was about henna because it was your original henna video that really helped me get the hang of using henna in my hair, I think I’ve been using it for about 2.5-3 years now? I get so many compliments on it now and because of my pale complexion and the fact that my eyebrows are really light as I’m naturally blonde, a lot of people think it’s natural. I have an old bed sheet that I put on the floor in the bathroom for all the “fallout” crumbs lol. What brand of henna/cassia do you use and where do you get it from? I’m currently using Light Mountain. Thanks for sharing your updated method of touching up your roots, it does seem much simpler than how I’m currently doing it!
Thnkyu kat for videos my good wishes for ur bright future ❤️
Cleaning conditioners work best for my henna treated hair. Also they don't dry out the hair like mainstream shampoos do. They retain color longer and if you have curly dry hair like mine it really improves the health of the hair overall. Keeps moisture in it and detangles too. L'oreal Extraordinary Oil Cleaning Conditioner is the one i mostly use and i love it. La Coupe Orgnx makes one too that i love but harder to find. For people who don't want to go no poo cleaning conditioners and co washing is the next best thing. Personally i find them much better for your hair than shampoo's, keeps your colour longer without all the fading sulphates, and doesn't dry it out. Once you start co washing you'll never go back to drying sulphate shampoos. It also gets your hair just as clean i have no issues.
Your hair is beautiful!
You look just like Emily Browning!! You both are so pretty and keep it up with the great videos!!!💙👏🏼
My same thought
Hi there! brand new to your channel, but I Just wanted to tell you that I love the dark henna in your hair!!! It just looks so good on you. I love this more than the lighter henna color that you have in your other henna videos:)
Thank you! I agree. :)
girl I hit like from the first minute. cause your hair color looked so good
I watched this as I bought henna from lush, the drug I am taking for the next ten years following breast cancer last year has ruined my hair too, your video was lovely to watch and nice to find someone who can identify. Thank you.
Your hair looks beautiful
Ah, spent 15 years as a henna redhead and loved it. Been bakc to my natural blonde for a while now. Lots of misinformation out there, no wonder hairdressers cringe, lol. Pure lawsonia inermis is gorgeous, never melts your hair or turns it green or blue. Just luscious, vibrant orange red. Sometimes I miss it. 😊
Great video. Beautiful hair.
You have beautiful hair. I have very fine hair that doesn't grow and just started using henna and natural shampoos.. Hoping this will make a difference
If it wasn't for these videos I'd have said your hair is naturally red, it looks so good, I wish I could have red hair too but I have a dark skin and it doesn't look good on me haha I love your hair
sophie gastelum lol same here lol
sophie gastelum just go for a dark orangy Auburn. I'm Olive skinned and I'm using henna. It looks great.
Have you thought of using pure indigo instead of henna? it has the same qualities and your hair ends up black, not red :)
Well, i can think of many dark skin redheads from fiction that look great, i dont think it should be a problem
I think dark skins look great with red, maybe a more coppery or orange red rather than wine red. I've seen dark skins with orangey red hair and it looks spectacular and stunning and is very different from everyone else.
Damn girl, you are good! I have been using henna for 9 years and I still can't do it without gloves.
Great that you are better!
Hi Kat! Love the shade you’ve achieved by mixing cassia with your henna. Would you be able to give the ratio/measurements of cassia to henna? Thanks for your videos; I’ve really enjoed them!
It doesn't say what color the henna is. I want to make sure I'm getting the same one you use to get your red. I'm naturally a redhead(copper), and I've never used henna before. I really want to try it since I've bleached my hair to get it a pretty purple in the past, and now I am getting tired of using box dyes on my hair damaging it further. I've heard soo many great things about henna. And I think this would be the best way to dye my hair (a natural looking) red until my color grows back out, and a much healthier way to do so. So I'm glad you have such awesome tutorials with you using it.
Can you show us your natural, unstyled hair, and the steps you go through to style?
Thanks Kat! It's been really fun to follow you for a few years! I'm about to do my first henna and have rainbow henna here but I guess I will order this stuff and use it since you have great results. BTW: you stopped using any other additives, like coconut oil and coconut milk? I liked your earlier color better for my own skin, eye color choices. That one you used chamomile tea, coconut milk, coconut oil? Do I have that recipe correct? I also have a lot of roots and some gray now in my hair. Maybe I will do one more boxed color to get it all back to one full shade and then do the henna full head application. Any comments on that?
Im excited to start henna and indigo! (I go blonde to black)
Im also glad at the brand you vouch for, it seems to have the best price out of all I have seen.
Hi Katrina, first of all thanks for the helpful info. I really relate to some of your story, I am just emerging from 2 surgeries to remove a tumour and although I didn't lose my hair from radiation it's been a challenge finding my sense of beauty again. Going through this as a young person is isolating at times, as it is difficult for others our age to understand I find! I'm also trained as an actor like you, although I'm doing more social justice theatre stuff now. Anyway was wondering if you made a video about your process and finding yourself again after illness especially in the film/tv industry? Would love to connect with you over this.
Thanks for sharing your experiences to honestly!

Red fits you Kat
hi beautiful lady, I love your video your hair is gorgeous, I'm glad that you mention about another powder call Cassia in your tutorial, I'm going to try it even though I like my hair darker Auburn, I've been using henna for over a year now and my hair is really looking healthy thanks for the info about the eyebrows, and what movies are you starring in so I can look out for them? May God bless you though your acting career.
جميل ...انا استخدم الحناء مع الكركديه والشاي الاحمر والليمون والسدر ...والنتيجه رائعه
In between full applications, mix some leftover paste which has been frozen and thawed into your favourite conditioner. Leave on for 5 minutes or so every couple of weeks. Gorgeous, feels wonderful. ❤ 15 years as a henna gal.
Very helpful, thank you!
Can you plz do another week as an actores and LOVE your vids
What do you use as "shampoo"? I love Your hair!
I also had straight hair as a child and it got curly as I grew up! I thought I was the only one lol
Thanks for sharing! ☺ That's great you can freeze the leftover mixture. My hair is dry so I don't have to wash as often either. It's also as long or slightly longer than yours but yours looks really healthy. I'd love to try this to get some semblance of my natural color before it faded with age. I have to ask... is your water chlorinated? I have well water with iron, lime, copper, and other minerals so I occasionally go to the salon for a shampoo. Do you think my water would have a negative affect when using henna?
You are so pretty!! You remind me of Emily Browning
You are so gorgeous!
I put a store dye on my hair around Sept 8th.. I can see my grays already, how long I have to wait until I can use the henna and indigo on my (natural) hair?
Do you style your hair with heat tools? I just did henna on my hair and love it but I usually curl my hair once or twice a week and I saw some people say you shouldnt use heat 😬
Hi! I love your haircolor😍. Where do you buy pure henna? Thanks in advance for your answer❤️❤️
I don’t let the henna sit for hours. If you use hot water, you can use the mixture immediately and get good color deposit.
What lip color are you wearing? brand & color please. Love it. I am fair skinned and want to get that color.
I love this colour! What brand of henna do you use? Mine is always so orange :( I like that your hair is more auburn than orange
Try to put shower cap over your hair and some beanie on top, that would make the results bit more popping ❤️
Yours is the only henna'd hair that I've seen that I LOVE the color of. I'm wondering if it's the specific formula you use with the chamomile and half cassia. I want to start hennaing my hair but I'm worried about not liking the color
Same! I love this gingery/coppery color, but am worried as I see a lot of henna turn hair a more unnatural/bright red.
Same. I'm going to try this formula but do a test strip first.
Love your hair color in this video, are you still using henna, would love any updates you have regarding henna 😀
I love your dress! It really suits you with your hair color too :D
Also: i love your voice!
Hey Kat!! Love your channel❤, Can you do a skincare routine video
or another acting one
Hi Katy looks someone’s using a v Indian beauty care V happy about that an I like ur courage gone thru so much of health problems but ur are bold need to learn a lot from u......
ياريت حدن يترجم الكلام
*"Nightmare meets Hagrid meets Hermione... **_and it's NOT pretty_** "* hahaha I love it!
Mooooood! I had to stop dying my hair years ago cuz my chemo treatment for RA and Lupus made my hair super thin and fall out in clumps. I'm wanting to switch to henna because I've gone back to chemical dye but I don't like the dryness it's causing. Thank you!
If you don't like the dryness add yoghurt to your henna mix, or condition it afterwards.
I have lupus too. How long for your hair to grow back? Mines a mess right now
❤ this video. Do you have a video on how to do the initial process. I've never done this before but would love to give it a try. I used to conventionally dye my dirty blond hair all the time until I had my youngest son. About 6 years ago. However I always loved having red hair and would love to go back using natural products.
I used to, but the music I used on it is a problem. The music artist later signed with Sony Japan, so even though I had the rights to use it, they did a copyright strike on it, so it got taken down after I disputed it three times. And since I don't speak Japanese...oh well. Unfortunately it was one of my first videos, so it was before I was saving backups without the music for such instances.
I've been thinking about seeing if I can find a person here in LA who would be willing to let me show the whole process on a first time dye job, but henna is such a homespun, unpredictable process, who knows if anyone would let me.
Katrinaosity that's too bad. It looks great. Shoot, if I lived closer I'd totally let you do mine...lol ❤
Can you please recommend the brands you use? I haven’t color treated my hair in about 6 months but I dnt want any of the burning of my hair like you mentioned lol I’m looking to do a more natural healthy way of coloring my hair due to health reasons. Thanks so much
PLEASE ANSWER: Do you put any leave-in conditioner or oils in your hair after showering?
Is there a type of henna you get? Where do you get your henna an cassia?
Hi, I too have medical conditions that I has caused my hair to thin extremity bad. Can you please link the products that you use? Thank you so much.
Greetings! Any suggestions for someone with more than a few grays who would like to use Cassius but does NOT want red or black hair. lm looking for chestnut or a cool brown. Thanks for your time.
What is your natural hair color?
Dear, use a pair of gloves to avoid staining your hands in the applying process otherwise henna stains lasts for many days before they fade away or get washed off completely.
Do you know that indians and arabs brides apply henna for designing their palms and arms before their wedding day??
Its also a way of adorning themselves to look more beautiful. 😍😘😚
Do you still use Zenia henna and cassia?
Please let me know how long to leave henna on hair...your video does not say need exact time.. also how long to leave it to rest before putting it on hair 6 or 12 hrs.?
What is your natural color? I have brown with 50% grey and I like your colour, but I'm not sure if I can get the same result on my hair.
Thanks for the info! What does the chamomile tea help with in the henna? What would the color turn out to be if I just used cassia and henna with plain water?
It's the acid to release the dye.
Merhabalar ben dilinizi bilmiyorum o yüzden anlayamadım ama sayfanızı çok beğendim.Bu tonu yakalamak için kınanın içine siyah renk kınamı ilave ettiniz bende uygulamak istiyorum sevgiler 😘
You are a preety girl. I like the dark brown colour of your hair.
But I have a question: I've read that you shouldn't use henna on hair that's been previously dyed with chemical dyes, because it will react & might turn your hair green &/or fry it off - but you said this is only the case if it's not "100% pure" henna - meaning no chemicals or salts added to the product.
I had never colored my hair before (because I frankly had gorgeous color my whole life), but since I started getting nasty grey hairs popping through my previous natural golden-strawberry blonde/auburn locks , I've started using a Matrix professional demi every 4-6 weeks (for about the last 4 years). I use it on my roots only - because it seems to work permanently on making my greys a strawberry blonde & brings back my more youthful "pop" to the original darker strawberry blondish / auburn color (giving on-the-go "copperish" look you described), as it fades to my totally natural color - which I've always loved. But I've been thinking about trying henna because it's not only natural & peroxide-free - which would likely be gentler to my hair (though the Matrix doesn't dry it out), but because most products of natural henna are "cruelty-free", & I'm really trying hard to switch all products to cruelty-free products. Do you think I'm safe trying it over the demi color & may be happy with it?
Can you please tell me how often can henna be used on hair?
I’m trying to look into putting henna on my hair to gently tint my hair but all the instructions all massively differ and the colour looks way more thick than i was told...I’m so confused.
Can I regrow my hairline by using this method? How long should I keep it for? Should I let it dry completely? Because if I let it dry, wouldn't it be harder to rinse your hair and wouldn't it damage your hair? Please help me.
What about henna hair lab?? I’ve been using this. ❤️
So lovely 😊
You look gorgeous! I have a question: if you only do your roots why did your hair get darker? I'm thinking about switching to henna but I don't want it to go dark..
Thanks!
Rouge Vamp I've found minerals in tap water can make henna get brownish. You can rinse your hair with apple cider vinegar in the shower and let it sit a few minutes (ex while you wash your body) and it will get out the mineral build up and brighten your henna. I use a spray bottle with half vinegar half water in the shower once a week. Also reapplying henna will make it darker over time, but she said since she is in sunny LA, it's not a problem anymore. I'm guessing when she uses a henna gloss over the ends, it deposits more henna dye that can get dark over time. I guess the sun bleaches out her henna enough to cancel out the darkening. Also her no-poo method of washing her hair uses vinegar which has a brightening effect on hair. If you don't want it to go to dark, start with a cassia henna mixture, then add more henna with each coloring until you get the shade you like. You can henna everyday, but it's better to wait 3-4 days between treatments because the color develops over a few days after you wash it out, Henna alone won't go darker than a deep auburn.
You remind me of Emily Browning ❤️
i use henna + indigo to color my greys nearly black. enjoyed your process! does the henna stain your tub at all during that final rinse?
Thanks! I've never had a problem. I try and do it right before I clean the tub, so it stains the soap scum and I wash it away. LOL
curlykiki Some Clorox Clean Up washes it off your tub/sink/counters etc. Any cleaner with bleach works.
henna doesn't stain non-porous surfaces :)
I’m really confused about henna and dying my hair my hair are so thin and I want to change the color of it from black to ash brown but I’m scared of bleach because my hair are so thin kindly give me some suggestions
Can u please tell which company cassia do you use?
Hi. How long do u let the cassia soak for the dye release.
Gorgeous hair! You look like a main actress from sucker punch. Angelic face.
i really liked it when it was lighter, it looked like you were a natural redhead. On another note, can you think of what might lighten dark henna once its already dyed like yours is?
honey or lemon juice can lighten it slightly
You look good.
Very nice color!! But if my natural hair grows out to a medium brown would I need to bleach my roots then touch it up with henna?
Yes, if you want it the same color all over. If not it makes for an ombre effect.
Hi Katrinaosity, I am a colorist, and watching your video's, since I have a client who really wants henna and I am going to help her with that despite it not being professional. She wants it, I will do it. It is too bad that you had such a negative experience with hair coloring. I study about color and chemicals, that is all I am interested in. But I
am still and always learning, and there are better products to choose for just a few bucks more per service. As I learn, this is all I intend to do and if someone wants my help to do henna, that's cool. The only reason it is not professional is because, you cannot apply any hair color over it with good results and so on. But and so, if someone is going to stick to henna, then they are good to go. Your hair is beautiful, I am glad things came out well for you, with all you went through. My client wants the red for a wedding, so I hope I have the right stuff. Silk&Stone 100% Natural Henna.
Cindi, that's nice of you to do what your client wants! Just make sure she knows first time henna color is a bit of a gamble for a wedding! You just really don't know exactly how it's going to turn out on your specific hair color before you do it. But as long as it's 100% henna or cassia, it won't react with any old chemicals in the hair. I do use a mixture of henna and cassia to get my more coppery color, but henna by itself will give her a really vibrant red. Good luck!
we took the gamble! Wow, is all I can say. It looks quite lovely. Wedding is Saturday and it is a surprise bridesmaid to bride. After that, I will put her pics on my colorist site. I just may be slightly sold on henna alternative in the tool box, sometimes! :) thanks for sharing your experience.
Hi, can you tell me if I use henna over auburn/red hair color will the color stay longer? I am asking since reds fade away super fast and I don't want that. sorry for bothering you.
You absolutely CAN apply traditional (chemical) haircolor or even bleach over PURE henna (such as the kind Mehandi or Mountain Rose sells), if you ever need to... it is perfectly safe and you should get good results, just strand test first. The type of henna that you CANNOT apply chemical color over is BOXED henna (compound henna), which is not pure henna. Most professional stylists don't seem to know about this huge difference between pure henna powder and boxed henna, which is why henna unfortunately has a bad (and undeserved) reputation in the professional community. I get that applying chemicals to people's scalps is currently seen as more "professional" than applying a pure plant, but hopefully the industry will re-evaluate that peculiar notion at some point soon!
You can not apply any color chemicals to henna'd hair, even pure henna, until the coating that henna leaves on the strands of your hair is gone. It usually takes about 3 months for the coating to fade off the strands, but you can strip the coating off by massaging essential oil hair masks all over your hair a few times. As long as the coating is gone you're free to use whatever chemicals you like. However you can't really tell if the coating is gone or not because the color will still be there after the coating is gone.
