3 Packs Of Red/Orange Henna Hair & Beard Color/Dye 100 Grams - Natural Hair Color, Plant-based Hair Dye - The Henna Guys

I am a performer, I am 44 years old, and have salt and pepper hair. A few years back, I noticed that most hair dies, even though they state that they cover gray hair, would not cover gray hair completely. I started to do a lot of research on the health benefits of switching to Henna. Most, Henna products have salt in them, which, if you have processed your hair prior, can cause your hair to break off. The Henna guys does not have the salt in their henna! I have a very dear friend that turned me onto this particular company. They have a lot of integrity, and the colors are so beautiful. I had been bleaching my own hair and dying at different colors. Mainly Pravana, and also semi permanent vegan dyes. I am a Tour Guide in New Orleans, and it gets quite hot here and tend to sweat a lot during the summer time, especially. One day I noticed, as I took witch hazel and wipe my chest, the cotton pad was black. I started to do research on the effects of chemical dyes, and how it is absorbed into your body, what I found is there are some cancer causing affects. Your skin is one of the biggest organs, I wanted to improve my mental health as well, as I am perimenopausal and figure that the absorption of these chemicals is probably affecting things that I don’t realize. Henna dye, darkens overtime, so I was quite worried to commit to this. I have long straight hair that almost touches my lower back for the first application, I used hibiscus tea that I brewed, put the deep red powder in a glass bowl. You do not want to use any kind of metal bowl slowly mixed the hibiscus tea in and stirred the Henna, so that there were no clumps and a cookie dough kind of texture. I also used Bravani powder. Adding in a quarter of the packet, this is something that you can add to the Henna that helps with strengthening the hair, etc. You can go on the henna guys.com and see the options that they have. I also used a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar, then I let the Henna sit for eight hours, and set an alarm on my phone. I used three packets which was way too much, but wanted to make sure I had enough. After eight hours I mixed it again. Then I took a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar and mixed it in, as the reviews stated it would help with gray coverage. I also made sure that I had a sulfate free shampoo and conditioner. I used a regular hair, dyeing, brush, gloves, and had a plastic cap nearby, the easiest way to do this with long hair, you section your hair off and four different sections and clipped the ones back that you were not using. You can use your hands, but I found it much easier to use a dye brush. I don’t know what people are so fussy about, I was reading reviews, and they said that it was super messy, however, I didn’t have any issues. Keep in mind I’ve been dying my hair for many many years. I did put a cape on over my clothes and made sure I wasn’t wearing anything that I would care about getting Henna on. If you get henna on your hands or body, it’s actually not as bad to get it off like people say. Use lemon juice and baking soda. Mix it into a paste and let it sit on your skin where you accidentally died, and after a couple minutes, just scrub it off with a washcloth, off and no problem Depending on the length of your hair, will determine how long you need to wait until you apply it. Once you apply the henna, you have to let it sit on your head for three hours and cover it. It is a clay, so your hair will feel heavy. Honestly, I just twisted my hair up into four buns and put a cap on basically just did some house work after three hours, I went into the shower to rinse it off. It is extremely important that when you rinse it off it is cold water. Also, it’s a good idea to rinse off the top of the cap before you pull it off. If you have long hair, you’re definitely one gonna wanna lean your head back and keep it back, the first time I did this I didn’t do this, and the water that dripped down my face had had a die coming down, so I did actually need to scrub my face after this happened. I would highly suggest a mirror on the side of your shower you can also start with warm water at first to acclimate your body, and then rinse it out if your hair. I would definitely suggest putting a leave in conditioner that is super hydrating that sulfate free, a.k.a. maybe a coconut or jojoba hair mask. Put it in your hair and leave it on as long as you can after the first application, then go in and rinse it off with cold water. A lot of people don’t realize that if you have been processing your hair for sometime, it takes your hair a while to adjust. Literally, the henna will coat your hair, follicle and help heal your hair, but it takes time. My hair felt dry and brittle the first time, the second time was better, and the third time, I finally feel like my hair has adjusted and it’s soft and silky. Honestly, after I first did my hair, it was very soft due to the oils I put in my hair. Just know if you do decide to take a warm shower, to actually seal the henna dye into your hair, you do need to use cold water the more you wash your hair with warm water, the quicker it will rinse out. The gray coverage is amazing and the health benefits are also equally as awesome. I should’ve been doing this years ago. There are many tutorials on YouTube specifically for this brand, the Henna guys. Are used a lot of those tutorials to approach this. Now, when I am outside and sweating, I know, at least if the henna goes into my skin, it will not cause my body harm. Also, the more I use this, the healthier and stronger my hair feels. to prevent darkening at my ends, I actually applied two times all over my hair, then the third time I only applied it to my roots, this way, I can keep the rest of my hair a little bit lighter There are several lightning techniques. If you have been dying your hair with Henna for a very long time, you can find a lot of those resources on YouTube. This may sound like a very long process, but I’m telling you, it is well well worth it. Wanted to share my experience, hope this was helpful, honestly this color is so beautiful and I get so many compliments, I would suggest it to anyone!

My hair is naturally dirty blonde (1st pic). The first time I used this auburn hair dye, I wanted more of a copper color. So, I used one packet and mixed it with half a measuring cup of brewed coffee and the rest water until it was a consistent texture. Not too runny, not too thick. I let it sit for 45 minutes. I applied it and let it soak in for 2.5 hours. Turned out perfect! It did fade quite a bit as the packet mentions it would after about 6-8 weeks. But it held onto enough color that the 2nd time I dyed it (2nd pic) it was closer to the auburn color on the package. I also used a bit more coffee this time and let it sit for 3.5 hours instead. After dying it, I wash it with conditioner only and let the conditioner sit on for a while before rinsing. I haven't noticed my hair being any more dry than usual this way. All in all, much prefer this hair dye compared to the products with chemicals. Also, it covered my little bit of grey hairs which is why I wanted to dye it in the first place. I love how natural it looks!

Amazing, rich color that lasts. I've received so many compliments and folks are surprised that it's henna! I've found mixing with coffee brings out more brown and adding a small amount of apple cider vinegar really helps cover greys. It also makes my hair shine and reduces frizz. It does have a funky odor because its all natural, but really not enough to put me off. Definitely recommend

I have been using henna on my hair for the last three to four years for covering grays and for the deep conditioning/strengthening benefits that henna provides. I probably give my hair a henna treatment every month and a half to two months. Over the years, I have tried a couple of brands that I like but one of my staple brands is Henna Guys (which I reorder often). I like this brand because it is high quality, finely sifted (no twigs or other coarse debris), and has great dye release. I also like this brand because it offers a variety of shades besides the traditional orange/red. I typically use the light brown or auburn varieties, depending on my mood. My hair is very dark brown/almost black so other than the beautiful color it adds to my gray strands, the color shows mostly as subtle highlights in the sun. There are many brands of henna on the market which offer a variety of color choices but I have found that a lot of the brands that offer an array of colors add metallic salts and other harmful additives to their henna in order to make this plant-based product achieve the various colors. This brand has a simple list of natural ingredients; I have listed the ingredients below for the two colors that I use most often: Ingredients (Medium Brown): henna powder, indigo powder, emblica, eclipta Ingredients (Auburn): henna powder, indigo powder, hibiscus I really like the fact that there are no harmful additives in this product. The color deposits beautifully and is permanent (although I do have to touch up my roots as my hair grows). Because henna is a natural, product, you can either apply it to the roots of your hair as it grows or reapply it to the entire length of your hair (which will strengthen your hair strands and result in the enhancement of the color from previously applied henna treatments). I can get at least two applications per packet if I am just touching up my roots. If I apply henna to the length of my mid-back length, thick, curly, hair I probably use an entire packet (although admittedly, I am heavy-handed with hair treatment products.) If you are experienced with henna, I recommend that you give Henna Guys a try not only for the reasons stated above, but also because this brand allows for much variation in the application process and will work well in a number of application scenarios. For instance, at various times I: 1) have added only plain water to the mix and the dye still released. (I typically use an acidic liquid such as lemon juice or apple cider vinegar when mixing henna, but plain water has worked for me in a pinch.); 2) have added oils such as olive or avocado to the mix prior to the dye release stage as well as after the dye has released before applying the henna to my hair and saw no difference in the results; 3) have used this brand of henna on wet, freshly washed and clarified hair, and also on dry hair that was in need of a wash, both with similar positive results. The only things that remain the same each time I apply henna is the length of time in which I allow the henna mix to sit so that the dye releases (typically overnight) and the amount of time that I Ieave the henna mixture on my hair after I apply it (between 3-4 hours using a heat cap). Other than that, no matter how I have chosen to mix and apply this brand, the color always turns out well. If you are new to henna I encourage you to do your research before using henna because (among other things) even though henna is natural product it bonds with your hair to provide permanent color and may interact with any commercial color you may have on your hair. After doing your research, if you decide that henna is right for you I would definitely recommend this brand.

The hair appears so well conditioned, shiny and soft. The henna washes out easily without any bits stuck to the hair. And it covered all grey hairs 100%.
