I'd been using Jamilla since i started using henna about a year ago. Not the special stock but the one for hair, in the clear cellophane on the inside of the box. I had good results, though the color could be sparodic. Sometimes it wouldnt color my roots, sometimes it would........ and sometimes it would be a bit orangy.
Well........ as luck would have it my usual supplier ran out of my stuff, so instead, on a what the heck basis i bought half a kilo of Rajithani Henna.
Oh my oh my! The texture was like baby powder, i'm used to a rough grainy texture. The mix was almost gelatenous smooth, not like mud. And it didn't smell when on like old wet hay, but fresh sweet hay......... since i hate the smell of henna and try to disguise it, this was a bonus.
The minute i put it on my head, it started staining my SKIN!...... I've never had that happen before. Two hours later i rinsed, and its an amazing deep rich red. Rinsed out like a charm, and though I had the usual after henna dryness, its nothing like what i'm used to.
I'm a convert to this kind of henna now, w00t!
