How to use Henna
* BLACK * BROWN * BLONDE * CLEAR *
* DARK RED * STANDARD RED *
For an average head of hair, use approximately 100 grams of the henna of your choice and mix to a paste with water.
Heat in a saucepan on stove and "cook" for a few minutes,
adding water or reducing until a thick paste is achieved.
Remove from heat and stir in 1tbs of olive oil.
When cool enough to tolerate on scalp, but still hot, work and comb mixture through hair, taking care to coat all strands.
Use rubber gloves and protect clothes with an old towel.
If possible, sit outside.
Wrap hair in plastic food wrap. Wipe drips from face and neck. Leave for approximately 4 hours, then wash out.
If in any doubt about using these herbs always consult your health practitioner.
