! For anyone looking for a way to get rid of henna: I hennaed my hair around 2-3 times with lush caca rouge. after a while i wanted to go back to blond and what i did helped me a lot. first i mixed baking soda with anti dandruff shampoo and massaged that into my hair. i left it on for only about 5 minutes. I did that to open up the hair cuticle. then i heated up coconut + olive oil and washed out the shampoo+soda mixture not putting any conditioner or anything on my hair (that would close the cuticle again) then i dried my hair a bit and massaged the warm oils into my hair for a few minutes, really trying to get the oils in there, so they could pull the henna out. then i left that on my hair for 2 hours. (of course you can leave it on longer) I blow dried my covered hair every once in a while so it stays warm. after 2 hours i washed my hair with warm water and the water was actually red-ish from the henna. i did this twice and there is no henna left. it really helped me a lot cause i was afraid that i couldnt go back to blond. i wanted to share this because maybe it will help someone else. i know how frustrating it can be. hope it works for you. good luck!
Did you bleached ur hair or do you have natural blonde hair? I want to get rid of my henna because i want to bleach my hair and dye it purple but im afraid because of the henna and thanks for your advice i will defenitly try it out
@@yunie6861 my hair was bleached before I dyed it darker and put henna on it. Before the baking soda+oil I used color b4 once, to get rid of the artificial color. I was left with the henna (really orange hair) and then the oiling worked wonders for me. Right now I'm back at an ashy light blonde color! After I did those oiling treatments I bleached my hair twice with really low developer (Schwarzkopf Blondme 7 Volume). I used low volume cause my hair is rather thin and my roots are a dark blonde. I couldn't be happier cause I thought I have to grow it out. Try to do the oiling as often as possible before bleaching. I hope it works for you aswell!
Thanks so much for sharing this! I am desperate to get the henna off my hair! I dye'd it like 4 months ago and went to the beach this summer to dive a lot etc and yet henna is still more than visible on my hair 😭😭😭 I'll try your method for sure! Tonight I'll just do the overnight oiling treatment.
Oil will remove it but takes time it took me months of sleeping in coconut oil and olive oil 2 times a week but it worked for me. I’m now back using henna for last 2 years and love it but if you wanna get rid of the henna and not damage your hair it can be done it’s just a process ..
Do you think any oil will do or does it have to be the combination of olive, argan and coconut oil? I'd like to try and do something about my blotchy henna residue hair
Rachel! That is so bloody sweet, thank you very much! Red is a beautiful hair colour, don't get me wrong, I just really wanted to go back to my natural hair colour (mostly because I'm lazy and didnt want to deal with root regrowth lmao) but thank you for your lovely comment! xxx
It worked for me! I had been using red henna for 7 years . I did 2 vitamin C treatments and then put a medium ash blond on my hair and it looks wonderful. My friend did put bleach on my hair after the 2 treatments and the process took 10 days total because I didn’t want to overwhelm my hair so I allowed a few days in between each step. My natural color is medium blonde.
The "hair follicle" is the pocket under your scalp that hair is anchor to and where hair is produced. I think you meant "the cuticle" which is the outer structure of the hair shaft.
Hiya.. I used lush henna twice (brun) and it was beautiful and healthy. Then I wanted to go back to blonde, 4 months later 🙄 I used hair colour remover and it does work, buuut my ends turned green. I then did a bleach bath, that worked slightly then did a bleach all over (all in a week). Ends are still slightly green. I did a 7n on my roots and might do lowlights on the green using a gold or pink so it blends nicely . Love doing my hair but faaark it's been through a lot. Been using Bondi Boost to help it get healthy and long again.. Good luck y'all xo
Paul Mitchell shampoo 3 + hot oil treatment will remove the green- then use a toning shampoo like gemlites or keracolor klenditioner- red tones neutralize green if it’s resilient.
I used Dawn dish soap mixed with lemon juice mix another time also used lemon baking soda and dawn dish soap mix wore a shower cap on it for about an hour after shampooing I mixed 2 tablespoons of olive oil in conditioner left it in for 20 to 30 minutes made my hair soft. Other if you prefer something like coconut oil add a few drops of pure lemon oil to it works for me
Thank you for watching my video! I'm sometimes self-conscious about how I speak, so this comment was a real boost! :) Hope you're keeping safe and well x
You are so funny i laughed so hard because i have the same problem and my hair is metal black and i hate myself and i don't look at the mirror My hair was that nice brown color wtf did i do😭
Aww I'm so sorry to hear you're not happy with the colour! I've made so many colour mistakes over the years ahah Was it a chemical box dye you used? There's a product called 'color oops' that's really good at pulling box dye colours from the hair pretty quickly - just make sure you're doing deep conditioning hair masks after application! Thanks so much for watching the video, I'm so glad you enjoyed it :) Best of luck
I just got f’ed today with light mountain henna in light brown. It was. Is labelled or something because I ended up with. Dark indigo brown after 45 minutes. I had golden chestnut light brownish hair before. I was doing the same colour. I usually use colora but thought I’d try let mtn. Never ver use them. Vit c burned my scalp and ow sleeping in oil. Send me your prayers.
Yes! You're dead right, I actually ended up continuing this treatment and stepping up my conditioning between uses, it really helped - especially because I have naturally dry hair on top of the treatment being very abrasive. Thanks for watching!
My Auburn haired daughter dyed her hair with Henna. It turned green in the pool. Ketchup got a lot out but we're still struggling to remove it a year later. We've used lemon juice, baking soda, ketchup, etc. It's a long slow process.
This was awesome you are so funny! I feel you I have this henna married to my hair forever unless I want to deal with the awful grow out...thanks for trying. I tried one treatment and agree ugh your conclusion
Hey! No, it's nothing like a semi permanent, it will fade and the vitamin c rinses do help with that but my hair still has copper tones in it today! It's definitely something you should only consider if you're happy committing to the colour and the upkeep in applying it to root regrowth xx
I did this to my hair yesterday and I'm pretty sure that it lightened my hair, but left the henna. Sadly, I've come to the conclusion that growing out the henna is the only way.
I think so too Darlin', but at least it's a gorgeous colour you're stuck with for the next while! I've since grown my henna out, it took a long time, faded somewhat along the way but never fully! I actually got to really like the coppery balayage effect towards the end! Stay safe and well, thanks for watching :) x
Hey im trying to get henna off my hair toi and what im doing is: When ur washing ur hair put alot of deep cleansing shampoo and massage lemon Juice in un hair. Then wait 5 mins. U Will have to to it many times for it to work. It took me 5 times to see real results but every time i do it its lighter next day
Tnx for sharing your experience with us , I was about to do this treatment and I was looking for someone who tried it on so it's btr to go to hairstylist 😊
The colour of henna you use doesn't matter, you could definitely try this removal process if you've already dyed your hair using the henna but it takes SO LONG, I'm talking weeks and months to remove henna regardless of the colour! If you scroll down the comments on here you'll see one from Teresa Michele who said she had far better results using oil to remove henna - I think a combination of the two might speed up the process as the vitamin C treatment is very drying and the oil treatments are nourishing! Best of luck x
I'm so sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but not for me! I used color oops and it just zapped my hair's health for the most part. The henna definitely fades after time but I'm still growing it out lmao
Myriam The color oops left my hair a really bright orange/reddish which was okay but my roots were showing a lot (bc the color oops doesn’t do anything to new growth) so I did a color on top which was wella color charm 8rg with a mix of a couple other colors to get a really beautiful ginger color. The henna I used was all natural with no Metallic salts so the color over too did not effect anything and my hair came out super shiny and healthy looking! I’ll post my profile photo what it looks like so you can see it. Hope that helps !!
@@bayareababe thank you! I don't want to light the color, but I didn't like henna and I don't know if a normal dye will work in my hair with henna (only henna), I'm going to wait a couple of months and try it...

this was educational but let me just say, your hair looked amazing red, with the blue eyes and skin tone, wow

thank you for being honest coz I am thinking of removing henna from my hair
It turned out that it was easier for me to shave it off 😂
You got?
@@unbalun nope, I decided to shave my head off, it was much easier to do to let my premature grey hair show

I used powdered vitamin C for box dyed hair. I might try it out on my henna hair, but I read that oil helps lighten it.
Jade which oil did u use?
@@dianam4286 Olive oil but wash your hair with a soap before ,it will work.
Some people’s henna darkens with coconut oil, at least that’s what I read on “the long hair community “ web page posts

You need to use a really moisturizing deep conditioner afterwards to replenish some moisture.
Yes! You're dead right, I actually ended up continuing this treatment and stepping up my conditioning between uses, it really helped - especially because I have naturally dry hair on top of the treatment being very abrasive. Thanks for watching!
The follicle is at the root of the hair. Henna deposits onto the outside cuticle of the hair. Good video😍
Thank you for the correction, Gwendolyn! Much appreciated xx
@@moodybaby3296 no worries, you are very welcome😀

Does it fade away every time I wash me hair?I mean one year from now will it be gone?

You want bi carb and lemon juice andchoney mix it to a thick paste leave it in your hair half hour then wash it out
Girls, does anyone know if using oil to remove henna, removes the blue(caused by indigo) too?

ahhhh did the color remover work?
I'm so sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but not for me! I used color oops and it just zapped my hair's health for the most part. The henna definitely fades after time but I'm still growing it out lmao
Use color oops. Works wonders. It lightens it at least a shade or two each time with no damage or dryness.
But then you have to dye the hair isn't it? And will the chemical dye works with henna in the hair?
Myriam The color oops left my hair a really bright orange/reddish which was okay but my roots were showing a lot (bc the color oops doesn’t do anything to new growth) so I did a color on top which was wella color charm 8rg with a mix of a couple other colors to get a really beautiful ginger color.

thank you
I think its because you used head and shoulders . That stuff is full of nasty chemicals that shouldn't be going on anyones head -let alone their hair .
What a treat, I came over to this channel for a henna removal video and found out you're vegan!😃 I had to subscribe. 😊
Love the accent.
Did the chemical treatment work?
Hey! I noticed less fading and more damage with the chemical fading!! I really wouldn't recommend it for henna - I've finally faded the henna from my hair and it's almost it's natural colour once again because I've continued the vitamin C treatments once a month since posting
Wrong vitamin C
Which is the right vit c?
