Just Jaivik Henna Powder Lawsonia Inermis for Hair - 100 Natural USDA Certified Organic by OneCert Asia No

Worked really well to get my hair a beautiful deep fiery orange. Used to using Lush's henna blocks, getting it in powder form is easier to use.. however, Lush's henna does leave your hair smelling much better. This henna has my hair smelling like a dirty drain every time I get my hair wet. Maybe that's just a normal scent for "pure" henna? Either way, as long as you use some sort of perfume via a hair product, or bodily perfume/cologne, you wont notice the smell. Also, here is a henna preparation and application guide. -Measure out your Henna into a *GLASS* container (it will stain other containers, and metal isn't good w/ henna). I have short hair, and weighed out 50grams of henna. It was more than enough. I'd guess about 100grams for shoulder length hair, 150grams for chest length hair, etc. -Next, you want to SLOWLY add some really warm/hot (120°f MAX) water, which is about the temp water comes out of your sink at full heat, use a thermometer to double check, though. -Stir the mixture as you go to eliminate most clumps and check the consistency. -Once you have added enough water and stirred to make a thick, creamy paste (think yogurt or toothpaste consistency), you want to cover the mix with plastic wrap; you can keep it held on securely with a rubber band. -Let the mixture sit for at least an hour before using. -After an hour or so, you will notice the mixture has become very reddish brown. That's the released dye, you are ready to apply! -Use gloves, wear a towel/cape, apply Vaseline around hairline to prevent skin stains, have paper towels/etc on hand to wipe up spills before they stain, and stand somewhere you can either clean up easily (shower/tub/etc), or apply outside. -Once your hair is fully soaked with the henna mix, you'll want to wipe as much as possible off any parts of your skin on your face you don't want to turn orange. -Then wrap your hair in plastic wrap as well as you can, making sure to cover all parts to lock in moisture and heat (these two things are essential for a good dying process!). -I would also toss on a plastic shopping bag on top of all the plastic wrap to make sure everything stays contained. -Keep henna on your hair for 2 hours+, I usually place a big black towel down over my pillow/ sleeping area, and just go to sleep looking like a mummy. I find that keeping it on my hair for ~8hrs gives me best results. -Once you're done letting it sit in your hair, go shower/ wash it off! DO NOT SHAMPOO. USE CONDITIONER TO HELP LOOSEN IT FROM YOUR HAIR. Be gentle, so you don't fling henna bits all over your shower, less to clean later! -Enjoy your new hair! Read more

This product is nice, I'm recommending it. Read more

Too bad I didn’t take a before pictures. I can never do chemical dye products due to severe reactions. My scalp turns hot pink and burns. I thought I could never dye my white hairs and just live with grandma hair. But oh boy!!! This henna product and matching indigo powder mix changed my look dramatically. I have medium brown hair color, and henna:indigo, 3:1 ratio was perfect mix for my hair color. The longer you leave the mixture in room temp the better. Color gets deeper and works better. I first used the one I mixed night before, and I found some missing spot, so I used them again one day after, color came out even better. And no reaction whatsoever yet, and hair didn’t get damaged at all. Perfectly satisfied😍 Read more

I'm done with chemical dyes and am hopeful this one works. I grew up with naturally strawberry blond, and then auburn hair, which faded to more brownish, with graying at the temples, so I've been coloring it for several years. I mixed the whole package in a glass bowl of hot water and covered it for about 4 hours. It's messy, so be prepared; I had paper towels ready and used Playtex gloves. I put Vaseline on the skin around my ears and face at the hair line and covered it all with plastic wrap, after applying it. I'm glad my husband was able to help me get it on where I couldn't see. I thought I could do it all on my own, but did need help. I didn't mind the fragrance and the texture was smoother than I thought it would be. I'll definitely be using non-chemical products from now on and am looking forward to how this turns out. I'll give an update. UPDATE: My hair color turned out great, but not as bright as I thought it would be. My hair is shoulder length and I used the whole package, but from now on I'll about half as much or just much less to cover just the roots, as others have suggested. My hair is soft and I don't smell any fragrance. Very pleased! Read more

My hair was a light brown. So bought this and mixed with indigo evenly. Let it sit for 4 hrs. Rinsed and used cream rinse only. The color was a rich auburn brown. My hair feels and looks healthy. So much more shine and body. Read more
