Jamila Henna Powder, 100g - Natural Hair Dye for Color & Conditioning

Paul Pelroy: I tried multiple tricks to get a darker stain for body art henna, but I couldn't get it to stain properly. It looked smooth when I mixed it, but I was never satisfied with the tattoo stain :(

katherinekatherine: The media could not be loaded.  This Henna worked AMAZING for hair color! It ended up being the exact thing I wanted!
I've used 3 different hair dyes trying to get the ginger I wanted and I've never been happy, so I figured why not try Henna. I mixed my Henna with Greek yogurt for a thicker consistency as well as hot Chamomile tea for a more golden color and Lemon to lighten slightly. I left the mixture to sit (covered with a paper towl for about 6 hours before applying, and I couldn't be happier with the results! I have very long THICK hair and I ended up using 1.5 boxes of the Henna powder. (I used half a freshly squeezed lemon and a medium size Greek yogurt, smaller than a Quart but bigger than a single serve chobani)
The smell wasn't amazing, but it was earthy and much better smelling than chemical hair dye. It was messy as heck, but that was partially my fault as I added to much water to my mixture so it was extremely drippy, i ended up wrapping my head in plastic wrap and a towl to keep it from getting on everything. I kept it on for about 3.5 hr and it came out a perfect bright ginger. Obviously I started with a darker blonde, so it ended up lighter on me than...

Meredith SteeleMeredith Steele: Doing my second application tonight so I figured this would be a good time to leave my review!

First application was on 5/2/17 -- see before, after, and 4 week pictures attached. My hair is waist length, thick and naturally light brown with blonde highlights. (It is just a boring, unsaturated color, but I like the natural highlights.) The "before" picture actually makes it look a little redder than it naturally is, unfortunately. It was also dirty and a bit wavy from being in a bun. ( See the second pic for a better "before" color reference.) The difference between my before and after IRL was pretty huge. My hair started out with "reverse ombre" because I stopped dying it almost black dark brown, and let my natural color grow in. The ends were a bit damaged from all the chemical dye.

The first day or two I had what some might call call "orange fright" -- it was very, very orange. I had wanted more burgundy, but I like having weird colored hair, so it was fine by me. By week 4 it had settled into a natural looking auburn, and my natural highlights are still there. As of this review, it's almost week 6 now, and the color has not faded from the week 4 picture, but my...

K. Willis: This was the first Henna I tried and my experience was it was alright. Though my experience may have been better if when I was mixing it I didn't add too much coconut milk that resulted in it being a little runny making it more like a melted chocolate texture. I also was in such a rush that I applied it one hour after letting it sit(it was also during the week and I had to work in the morning so i only applied for three hours then over nine hours the second time around). I will say it was a nice smooth texture and easy to apply and wash out. I also DC afterwards as one should since henna can be drying. My hair strands are thicker but I didn't notice my hair being more soft. I am glad this is a BAQ henna also. I mixed mines with coconut milk, lime juice and added olive oil after letting it sit. I was going to order again but I decided to try a different brand just to see if I could see a difference. I just did the application last night and have to say I like the other brand better(the one that has the 9 herbs added in it), but that could have been 'cause this time I made sure the consistency was thick like pudding and let it sit for three and a half hours as it says to do. I also...
