Henna Hair Color and Conditioner Persian Dark Brown Sable - 4 oz

My hair is naturally dark. But have like 4 greys that I was tired of looking every time on the mirror lol. So I decided to try something chemical free and found out this product. This is my second time applying it and it really does the job. I bought the dark brown color and the first application lasted about 4 weeks. The smell is not the best, but so much better than the chemical hair dyes you can get in the store. Reminds me to matcha tea. The powder is green color, but once I put it in a bowl and mix it following the instructions it turns darker. My biggest fear was to stain my scalp, but it didn’t. I would recommend to wear gloves when applying it bc it can stain your hands.

I've been using this for years, but now my hair is much grayer as it grows out, the color isn't the same. WARNING>>>Henna sites will tell you to use indigo with henna for gray coverage and yes it does work. But if you try to grow it out, you will end up with a blue line of demarcation from the gray into the henna and it may take two years or more to grow out. So use this product alone, not with indigo. Lesson learned. And professional colorists may or may not be able to help with the transition. Good product if used alone - you just need to remember it's permanent, it layers inside the hair shaft, so make sure you are ready for the commitment.

Here's what will happen if you have a small amount of gray hair or more, and use this product… It will turn your hair dark reddish orange. I don't know about the other colors that Henna offers and how they perform, but the dark brown version should not be used at all, unless you're dressing up for Halloween and going as Bozo the clown, because that's what it will do to your hair… Sad to say it turned my graying temples and gray in front all dark reddish orangey brown. The only reason I bought this product was because it's all natural and chemical free, and I'm all about organics and purity when it comes to my health, but ironically I had to go and run out and try and cover up this horrible dye job with the chemically laden hair dye " Just for Men"...that's that wonderful product that comes with all kinds of warnings because of possibly all of the radioactive plutonium and isotopes it must contain.. and after re-doing the crappy Henna job with just for men...my hair still looked like carrot top...as well as my head felt like the monster from the alien movie just regurgitated on top of my head and his acid was melting my scalp...my freakin head was on fire...they really should rename that product to something like "Just for Dead Men", so they look good in the coffin… because that stuff is intolerable on any living creature. Well needless to say my hair is ruined for at least a month because oh Henna… and so I am rectifying the situation by shaving my head tomorrow… Luckily I'm a Buddhist so it's not a big deal, and I'll just let it grow back In (I'm Buddhist but I'm still not ego-less....yet lol)...and in the future I think I'll just let myself grey naturally. Again to reiterate I'm only commenting on the dark brown product because that's the one I've used… I don't know about their other products, but if this is any indication of what they could be like… You might want to just run from this company and never look back... and you probably want to run from "just for men" too, unless you don't mind glowing in the dark and having your head burst into flames like "Ghost Rider".

I use this henna to enrich my hair follicles to make them thicker and healthier. Also, it did add colour to my dark brown hair making it darker as well. This is a great product. Definitely a 10 and a 10 I will be ordering more and next time I will get the black instead of the dark brown.

So the color came out darker then I expected. But I love it. And the price is not that bad. I used the hole container but I probably could of just used half. So I doused my hair good. I used a dark brown, came out more black. Did a test strip and the test came out green. So left it on for about 10 more mins when I did my hole head. Pros: 1) does exactly what is says, as in colors my hair. ( followed all the instructions, boiled water. Mixed. Used a bag wrap and heat wrap, ever 30 mins so twice I heated up the heat wrap, then rinsed ) 16oz of water and hole container.. Cones: 1) it says typically does not stain skin. But it does stain skin. It actually stains anything it comes into contact with. 2) messy. Not as messy as the other reviews says but still messy. Just use less water. (I did it in my tub to keep the mess contained) 3) it leaves like grounds in your hair ( kinda like coffe grounds) Hard to wash out. But guessing that will go away after a couple washings 4) dries out your hair. I used a conditioner after. And my hair still felt dry. So I used a nutrient hair booster and a aloe vera and mango butter leave in and it feels fine now. Now let's talk about smell. The reviews say there is a bad smell. This is untrue. It smells like green tea. Nothing horrible All in all I give it 4 stars. Cause its chemical free and that's what I wanted.. will update on how long it lasts.. UPDATE: it's been a little over a month.. and I am pleased to say the color has not faded. Update: it has been a little over 2 months.. and my color still has not faded.. I was hoping it would start to fade.. so it is not to dark.. but its holding the color very well.. Even with washing my hair daily. And washing with dawn dish soup once a week..

I have naturally dark brown hair and I'm starting to have more and more grey hair and they're becoming more visible so I decided to do something about it. I did everything according to the instructions - used clarifying shampoo, mixed henna with coffee instead of water, kept it warm, and left it on my hair for about 3 hours (they recommended 60+ minutes). The only thing it did with my grey/white hair was that now it has a yellow hue. So, not much of an improvement. I see that the henna did get activated (it gets activated by heat) because my brown hair now has darker shade than it did before and is almost black. May not buy again because it didn't work for the purpose. Update: Washed out after about a month. The hair was smoother, shinier, easier to manage and less frizzy while it was still on it. After it fully washed out, hair is back to its regular texture.

Love the way the hair looks. Would highly recommend this to anyone who wants to use natural products.

I’ve been using this for almost a year now to cover greys and make my natural red/brown highlights stand out and I’m so satisfied. I wanted to note a few things. -You must mix with enough acid to cover greys. Coffee or tea isn’t going to work if you’re trying to cover grey. You MUST use a substantial amount of apple cider vinegar, otherwise the chemical reaction that makes the henna turn dark isn’t going to happen. -henna oxidizes after a couple of days. This means, the color you see when you first rinse it out is not the color it’s going to be. I always wait a couple of days after coloring to see how dark it gets. It will get darker. If it’s not as dark as I’d like, or my greys aren’t fully covered, I do a second pass over the areas I want darker. -henna is messy, and takes time. Just deal with it. I do it all in the shower with gloves to contain the mess. Yes, it does leave a residue in hair, but that always washes out after my second wash. -be sure to use conditioner afterwards to prevent dryness. Also, steer clear of any products with protein for a bit. Henna acts as a protein in your hair, and if you put more protein in after using henna, your hair will suffer protein overload which could result in dullness, extreme dryness, and breakage. All in all, henna is not for everyone. I’m willing to take the time, energy, and mess over putting harmful chemicals in my hair. And after a year of using this product, my hair has grown significantly, is incredibly strong, and absolutely beautiful.
