How Henna can be used to get the hair back black.?

Answer 1

Henna won't make hair black, if that's what you're asking. To get a good natural looking black, you can use henna and then indigo.

Answer 2

There is no such thing as black henna. In order for henna to produce a black color chemicals that are unsafe for your skin must be added. Black henna should be avoided. A chemical dye known as PPD, which is not authorized for use on the skin by the FDA is often added to the natural henna to produce a black color. It can cause liver and kidney damage, as well as scarring of the skin. Also be careful if you have used chemical hair dye previously or have grey hair. Do a strand test first to see the results.

had to point the effects of chemicals out as i am allergic to hair dye and its not nice.


How to apply:
Measure into a bowl the required quantity of your choice henna powder and mix with warm water (preferably) or simply with tap water, and stir it until you get smooth creamy paste of henna powder and leave this paste to mature for 4 to 8 hours.
Then apply a generous quantity of henna paste with fingers smoothly and absorb the paste well into hair, to avoid henna paste running down to your neck or forehead, wrap your scalp/hair with plastic or aluminum foil or with cotton strips, making sure the henna paste covers the hair around the hairline. Use plastic gloves.
Leave the paste on hair/scalp for minimum 45 minutes or up to 8 hours. Its better to let the paste remain on hair for recommended timing to get perfect coloration and to let the hair absorb henna properties. Cover hair with a plastic shower cap.
After desired time, carefully remove the cover, and rinse thoroughly until water runs clear and remove any remaining of henna paste from hair.
Now you can shampoo your hair or just dry hair by towel.
