I use it for my facial hair it works great just you have to know how to use it I mix it using distilled water after I put on my facial hair and eyebrows I cover it with plastic foil that I use in a kitchen to wrap food it is important to cover not to loose moisture after 1 hour I wash it out The most important thing if you want to get best color result do it at night before you go to bed because it takes about 4-5 hours to get real color after you removed henna first I see yellow instead of grey but in the morning perfect natural brown I have been using it for about 3 years no irritation at all any other product irritation, redness, burning Thank you MANLY GUY

Henna is complicated but so in getting cancer or horrible health problems so I ditched the nasty chemical dyes forever and switched to henna. A friend of mine was diagnosed with a horrible health problem that destroyed her chances of having children. Her doctor told her to ditch crazy hair dyes, parabens and weird chemicals in her beauty routine. When she shared this, I thought it would be a good idea to cover my bases and do this too. Because switching to natural hair dye and organic makeup, lotion and hair products has changed my life I am leaving my longest product review ever and outlining my process. About my hair: long, naturally extremely curly, went completely grey at 20, now going SUPER silver slowly, It is thick. My black girlfriends told me it would help to relax the frizz and it totally does. My new henna treated hair (6" from the crown at this point) has the texture of a teen girl's hair. I love it. It took me 6 months to figure out the process for dying my hair with henna that works best for me. I started with the Lush henna, it seems to be a gateway drug for most henna initiates, but soon found the great dyes online that are less mess and less expensive. I repeat this process every 2-4 weeks. This is a two step process and it works to successfully cover grey hair. NEVER EVER add apple cider vinegar to henna. It makes it smell terrible and attracts bugs (cockroaches and ants). Use organic black tea in the second step. Make sure they dies sit overnight. Use distilled or very filtered water for all steps. There are about half a dozen ingredients added to the Henna Maiden brown dye that promote hair growth and nourish it. There is Amla in it which is also a super food that is great for skin and nails. It has powdered neem that helps keep fungus (dandruff) away. You could buy each of these ingredients separately and mix it yourself. I wouldn't trust myself to consistently mix the right amounts. The second brown step does contain some indigo but not enough to cover my greys. I purchased a separate package of indigo and use almost 1 part indigo to one part dark brown second step mix. Note; mix the brown dye and indigo separately and let them sit for an hour then mix together extremely well. You can mix the dyes well in advance and they won't be worse for the wear. I have found that an hour is adequate. My process: 6pm Using a glass pyrex cup I make 2 cups of organic black tea and let it steep and cool on the kitchen counter 7pm Using distilled lukewarm water I mix the 1st step, the henna (included in the Henna Maiden package) alone and let it sit for an hour before applying. *Note do this in a plastic bowl with a plastic spoon. 7:55 pm I remove the bathroom rugs, get out a hair dye flat brush with stiff bristles, lay out the plastic wrap, gloves, giant scarf, plastic hair clips, ugly old towel to dry my hair, paper towels or old cleaning rags, shower cap and I apply coconut oil to my hair line to cut down on dyed skin. 8pm I apply the henna to extremely clean, dry hair that has NO oils, mousse or styling products in it. I wrap the edges of my hair in a long strip of plastic wrap. (my hair is in plastic hair clips piled on top of my head) I then put on the shower cap, tie a giant scarf over the cap and plastic wrap to keep heat in and clean my house, careful to avoid all windows as to not scare the neighbors. 9:30 pm Mix part of the brown mix with the black tea until you get a creamy, heavy peanut butter consistency. In a separate plastic or glass bowl using a plastic spoon I mix a nearly equal amount of indigo (don't use the tea but use the distilled water for the indigo) 10 pm I rinse the henna with slightly warm water in the tub by kneeling over a HUGE pot (3 gallons) then dumping the water in the toilet to keep from cementing my bathroom plumbing shut. I do this approximately three times. Right now you have hair the color of Lucille Ball, don't freak out, this is your base color and it will look pretty layered under the brown hair dye. 10:30 pm While my hair dries I completely mix the indigo and brown together. (if your dye leans too red you can purchase and add a little bit of organic amla- about 1 teaspoon at this time) I also wipe up the dripped henna water from the floor and clean the toilet. It looks ugly. I dry my hair well and when is is pretty much totally dry I apply the mix of my indigo and brown mix that came in the package. 11-11:30 pm after applying the thick mix I cover my piercings on my ears with bandaids or medical tape to keep henna out of them. My piercings get really infected if henna creeps into them, yes I'm probably slightly allergic. I then put on the shower cap, tie a giant scarf over the cap and plastic wrap to keep heat in and go to bed on an old pillowcase. At this time I will tell you it is possible to dye your eyebrows with henna and considering the risk of getting the dye in your eyes I remind you to use extreme caution. I am NOT endorsing doing this but you want your eyebrows to match your hair. In theory, and I am not saying this works... you could carefully put plastic wrap over your henna laden eyebrows and wrap it all the way around your head. 6:30-7:30 am. I wake up and make myself some coffee, mixing in the remaining chai and some stevia and coconut milk, yum! I rinse my hair repeating the crazy giant soup pot thing from above, using cool water and then shower. In the shower I add an organic, paraben free conditioner to help me work out the rest of the dye. Do not shampoo and water that is anywhere near hot. Rinse your hair in the shower until the water runs clear. Your hair will be a little red and slightly dark for about 5 days. If you have an event I would recommend dying your hair about 5 days or 2 hair washes prior to the event. I use this process to dye my roots. As you work out the chemical hair dyes and your hair grows you will notice you have some variations in color in your hair, this is normal. If it's just awful consider cutting it. As my hair has grown out since switching to henna one year ago I have noticed the new hair texture is BEAUTIFUL. My hair is supple and healthy looking and I have started growing more new hair in the last 6 months. If you have thinning hair your chemical dyes may be part of the problem. If you routinely change hair colors henna dyes are not for you. You can't simply go to a salon and have this reversed. Henna is extremeley permanent. It does fade slightly over time. I touch it up completely every 4 or 5 months and I plan to let it fade this summer for a warm, sun-kissed look. At this time clean your house and bed VERY well. The tiny particles of henna attract bugs because it is a healthy food. Absolutely do NOT wear a white or light colored shirt or scarf until you have washed your hair 24-48 hours later.

It works well but it’s price is climbing up so fast and I will be discontinuing this product since there are other henna product available with much lower price.

It does work but you have to let it set for at least one hour in order for it to dye your hair. I have used it also on my scalp, and it does the trick, and it covers the grey but as I said before, you have to leave on for at least 1 full hour. The scent is not very pleasant, it smells like burn grass or something, and it also lasts for a couple of days even if you shampoo your hair. It doesn't cause any itching nor irritation whatsoever. I'm not sure if you can combine it with regular hair dye, but just to be safe I stop using it for at least 2 weeks before I even try dying my hair with over-the-counter dyes.
