I couldn't find the thread about Color Oops and henna removal, but I tried it tonight and I almost had a panic attack in the shower when I started washing it out! Holy crap it actually worked!
I only had a few glosses and maybe 3 full head applications, and a few root touch ups. I swear my hair is back to the same it was after the first full henna... or maybe lighter - just a light coppery-orange-peachy colour! And I only left it on 45 min. In the other thread (on here somewhere) they recommend 3 hours! I was too chicken to leave it that long as I was afraid my hair might melt or something. Plus the smell was making me feel sick. I literally put it on around 5:45PM and watched Big Bang Theory until 6:30PM, then rinsed.
I wish I could get a good picture, maybe I will try outdoors tomorrow. All I have is my iPhone and it cannot do an accurate picture. I tried and it just didn't look right.
I am SHOCKED! Now that I know it won't fry my hair, I will try a second one on the weekend and leave it longer I think. But OMG I am just...wow...it's removed so much henna! I'm just... it's crazy!
Ok, here are some pics from my photobucket:
This is my natural colour:

This was the colour after my first gloss:

This was after my first full henna:

Here is the last time I did henna for a wedding in October:

I think the colour I got after the colour oops is in between the first gloss and the first full henna.
