Answer 1

Yes semi permanent color would be better. Semi permanent color actually makes your hair thicker. This is because they dont chemically alter your hair like permanent colors. They coat the hair shaft making it slightly thicker.

Answer 2

You cannot use Henna if you have other hair color in your hair , the two chemicals don't mix . AND , yes there is a slight amount of chemicals in ALL non - permanent hair colors and Henna . You should have a hot oil treatment after every chemical process you have done . If your doing your own hair then you should read the directions and make sure you DON'T pull the color all the way to the ends . You need do only the roots , save the remainder and add equal parts of conditioning shampoo , after your roots are done being processed , then you use the remaining mixture to the entire head shampoo it in let it set for 5 minutes and shampoo out , 2 shampoos and then rinse , use your favorite conditioner ... This is a good way to start healing your ends .

My aunt who is a hairdresser warned me against henna. She said that it can do heavy damage to hair and costs a fortune to fix.

Remember that semi-permanent dye will go in your hair more than once. So you'll have to do it over and over again. Now, I'm just guessing here, but let's pretend semi permanent does half the damage that permanent does. After the semi permanent fades out, you have to put it in again. Then it damages it again. I guess. Ask your hair dresser about that, don't take my word for it.

I've been using shades for the last year (with the exception of a couple times). My hair definately felt healthier when my stylist did shades to my hair............ they cost around $30 - $50 here but are more than worth it. Every stylist i've talked to has said it actually works as a conditioning treatment as well and leaves your hair colored and glossy.
