Henna Hut

For those of you following my blog, you know the story of how I am allergic to a chemical that is in most hair dyes, so I am no longer able to dye my hair the why most people do.
Instead, I now use REAL henna, and I made my first purchase from a company based in Texas called Henna Hut.  You can see their website at http://www.hennahut.com

My first try dying my hair, which has gray, turned out with most of the gray turning a darker red shade.
Not exactly the result I had hoped for, but much better than having the gray strands that really stick out in contrast to having black hair.

I price I paid, including shipping was less than $16.00.  Not too bad to pay in exchange for not having gray hair, I think.  Also, the order arrived a few days after I placed it, which it always great.

I just received another order.  This time the two-step process of pure henna and indigo.  I am hoping this will do a better job of covering the gray, which I have read is harder to cover than normal hair.

The cost this time, since it's a two-step kit, was over $21.00.  Still not too much to pay to keep the gray away., though I am hoping to dye it every two months, if I can go that long without the gray coming in too fast.

If you go the henna route, please make sure you do lots of research on the company or product before you buy or use it to make sure it's real henna, and doesn't have dangerous chemicals.  The most important thing is to be safe!
