You should not have used a pre-boxed black henna as it wasn't henna. It was most likely indigo and has some sort of additives to it to make a blended mix with perhaps some henna in it. No one plant (like henna or indigo) can dye two different colors, so there is no such thing as black henna for hair, as henna only dyes reddish tones on brown hair.
Therefore since you have not used pure henna you have to give it some time to grow out before doing any chemicals as that might mess with your hair.

it depends on the kind of henna you used. if you use compound henna, then no, it'll turn your hair an icky color green or some weird black thing, basically, not a good outcome. however, if you used body art quality henna, then yes, you can. if you don't know which kind you used, take a little part of your hair and test some color on it, just to make sure( you can either cut a tiny piece of hair off or take a part of your hair thats hidden). even if you are able to dye it, the color might not turn out as you like because its such a drastic change (as any change from dark to light). there aren't any products that remove henna but there was a product that took away its outer layer which then made it safe to color, i can't think of the name at the moment, but i'll let u know once i find it!

No! If you are trying to match the color you achieved while using henna, use a semi permanent color on the hair NOT TOUCHED with henna dyes. The chemicals do not mix and could cause problems. Otherwise, the only way to get around this issue is to cut off the hair colored with henna.

NO! dont dye your hair after using henna. Ive not heard of any products that remove henna. You are safer waiting for it to grow out or going to a hairdresser. Your hair could turn bright orange or pink!

Since you used henna, your hair will end up turning orange if you try to lighten it and it can react w/ the lightener and cause severe breakage. You should never use henna based color. To get decent, even results you will need to wait till you have the grown out and cut off.

With the henna in your hair you shouldn't mix it with chemicals. If anything you need to go to a professional hair stylist and talk to them because they can probably take care of it way better than yourself.

Yes.
Your hair will be fine but the colour may not be exactly what you want.
