    I haven't purchased that particular henna, but I've bought Yemeni henna from her and she's a wonderful seller to work with. The Yemeni henna was outstanding and very, VERY fresh. I've heard nothing but good things about her henna, hair sticks and all other products. In fact, I'm waiting on a shipment of samples from her. I'm going to use her strawberry blonde henna on my teenage daughter and I'm also going to test out her famous oils and leave-ins.

    I haven't bought henna from NightBlooming yet but I have purchased various oils and leave-ins from her. She does a really nice job and shipped very quickly. I've only heard good things about her henna as well.

    I've been using Nightblooming's Kitsune for a while, it's wonderful. Easy to prepare (just add water and wait, no grating and you don't need to add anything extra to it), good stain, nice conditioning. It goes very far, I tend to use 100-200g on my TBL iii hair. I've not tried Enyo but I imagine it is equally good quality. I'll add some pictures of Kitsune for you.

    Here is my hair before:

    I've used the kitsune, which at the time was the darkest she had (pre-Enyo) i loved it. I bought it to do an ombre effect, although my hair is too dark for it to be clearly visible you can see it in the sun. Hmm probably time to redo it

    I have not purchased anything from her, but maybe she could show you an action photo of that shade of henna. She is Nightshade on the forums, and a particularly nice person.

    While an excellent idea, and she IS lovely, I'm not sure she's allowed to, but I could be wrong

    Also, thanks for reminding me, just bought some more

    I adore her hennas! The only reason I'm not constant with them is because I love the red tones but I struggle with roseaca and it really brings out the red in my skin. If I didn't decide to lay off the red I'd be maintaining with her henna. Leaves it so soft afterward.

    Best to contact her via Etsy. I'm sure she'll be happy to answer any questions you have.
