1. I have green box with about 6 sachets of henna powdered. I found my hair getting thinner with few strands fall off.
2. Do you think the product is out of date. Don’t see any date outside the box.
3. Do I have to mix with gold water or hot water?
4. Do I have to shampoo my hair or just conditioner?

I have been using henna for years. If you want a darker brown, not red, the key is to henna first, rinse, then put on indigo for about 30 min. Remember to mix your henna the night before so the colour can develop. I tie an old piece of cloth rather than wear a shower cap so it can breathe. Also, I add a little essential oil to help with the smell.

I used bio organic henna hair dye and it covered some gray, but not all of it and I kept it on for 1 to 2 hrs. My hair is natural black some of my gray was covered but not all of it. I will wait a month and try another brand. Thank you for sharing your henna experience with me and others.

The company I use is from Portland, OR as well…Henna Color Labs. It’s great. Easy to use and leave in for an hour with great results. Their customer service is great and they ship quickly. No additives, just straight henna.

I have used Rainbow Henna for years.Rainbow research company .All natural henna.Beautiful color yes it covers the grey.I am allergic to many things and never had trouble with this.A patch test done before is a good idea.I believe people who have an allergic reaction used a product with other things in it than henna.For me its a wonderful alternative.

Yeah, if it’s a cream that means it’s pre-mixed and is definitely NOT natural henna, which must be mixed and used fresh, it loses effectiveness in about a day once mixed. True natural henna is a gritty powder you mix with water (and little extras to boost color, add fragrance, etc.). It’s ONE INGREDIENT: henna.

I liked your post and it’s pretty spot on . I wanted to clarify that I’ve been using henna for 8 years now including during two pregnancies with no adverse effects. I use the Hairwalla brand sold on Etsy . There are no chemicals just plant powder it’s activated with water. It works great! I have dark brown hair and use walnut color. By the way I’ve also highlighted my hair without issues with color lifting. Maybe it’s because this brand has no metallic salts and is just crushed plant powder.

Yes! Above poster is correct Surya is not natural at all it only has a small amount of henna in it. Filled with chemicals. I now get “body art quality” henna online. If you search for that online hopefully you can find some close to where you live.
