Can anyone help me with this? I will be doing my first ever henna application in about a month (I'm absorbing all the knowledge on the topic that I can before I get started) and I know for certain I am looking for a henna with cooler tones and less coppery. According to what I have read, Red Raj or Rajasthani power would give me that. The Rajasthani is a couple dollars cheaper at the source I am ordering from (Henna Sooq) so of course my penny pinching tendencies are pushing me more towards purchasing that henna. However, I want what will give me the best result in the long run.

Is there much difference between the Red Raj and Rajasthani powders? If so, please fill me in.

In case it matters, this is the hair I will be working with. You can see my four inches of natural color on top, followed by about 20 some-odd inches of chemical dyed hair. (Last dye was the first week of January of this year.)
