Henna for Your Hair!

I've just recently ventured back into the world of Henna! I remember I tried to dye my hair with Henna years ago and it was a disatrous event. My hair turned really brittle and became even less manageable.

So you can imagine, I was a little hesistant to try again. However I took the plunge this time with 100% Natural Red Henna from a reputable company and wow! - the results were astounding!

My usually dusty brown to auburn hair has nice red overtones and the extra perk is that it is super soft and extremely manageable. Henna is known for detangling one's hair and repairing split ends and I can testify to this, especially to its effects on an African-American woman's hair:) (unfortunately, there aren't that many resources on Henna dyeing ethnic hair out there).

I totally believe now that the Henna I had years ago was just a bad batch and that in fact, Henna is a great if not wonderful way to nurture and nourish your hair, whatever your hair type!

Here are the Henna internet resources I've found helpful:

Natural Hair Dying with Henna is something that I'd love to offer as a service through So(u)l Revival Mobile Spa in the near future. Do you think this would be a cool service to add? Do you have some Henna advice you'd like to share? Post a comment and let me know:)!
