Does anyone know what I'm talking about? If it's a member here that started it, I apologize for not knowing! I found it long before I started posting here.
Problem is - I can't find it again! I believe the host was flickr, and there were a ton of henna/cassia/buxus/indigo/etc tests on hair samples. Anyone got it handy?

Sounds interesting! I know a member here, caribou55313, did some plant dye experiments on mohair and Henna For Hair's website has a few samples of mixes.

If you find what you were originally referring to, be sure to post a link -- I'd love to see it!

I was just looking at this one: http://www.flickr.com/groups/hennaforhair/

There certainly are a lot of dye mix samples on mohair shared in the Henna For Hair e-book. I'm new to this forum, so I hope I'm not stating something that everyone already knows about. :lol:

Maybe caribou's experiments are what I'm seeking? They aren't on her profile, though. I'm pretty sure it wasn't the hennaforhair flickr, because the one I'm thinking of was almost entirely pictures of hair swatches on paper, as opposed to people. I remember one of the experiments was trying to get a light brown, but they all were green until oxidized. :shrug:

The website where i buy my henna has some documentation on that. They tested most of them (i don't know if they tested all of it) on a few different hair samples.
But everything is in french, so i don't know if it will be useful...^^Don't know either if that's really what you're looking for.
Here is the link :

I can't find anything like that on the link you provided! I feel pretty comfortable navigating the page once google translator is on, too. I am finding lots of awesome stuff on here, but no henna results - just recipes. Where do I go?

Just figured I didn't access what you wanted with this link...sorry ^^
here is the link to buy all the powders, there's a "en savoir plus..." link in each description (i guess it will translate to "know more" or something) and if you click it some of them will show the hair color changes : http://www.aroma-zone.com/aroma/extraits_plantes2.asp
Tell me if I put the wrong link again...hehehe :o

You're welcome :-)
Don't hesitate to ask if you don't understand something on the french website :)
