Hi dear community!
I hope for help. :waving:
My hair gets really nice treatment (just natural cosmetics, oil, a really good brush) and I wish it were nicer to me too. But no.
I try to henna (henndigo every other time) my hair brown. Thats all I want, a 'boring', simple brown. For my sake whit a red glow. Actually I just want my own original haircolor back.
The problem is, that the last half still suffers from a bleaching trauma. Yes, I confess that I wanted to be blonde for once in my life. :crazyq: (It's a hundred or at least 4 years ago.)
I suppose, thats why the color sticks so badly. (Even normal drugstore or hair-dressers color won't last too good.) After 2 or 3 hairwashes I'm red-brown, which I like too, I'd be fine, if it stopped here. But after another 3 or 4 washes the ends turn kind of orange. As my skin is cool-toned so you can imagine how pretty that looks.
So I felt, I need to open a thread for all of you out there, who are working on the project: Brown hair with henna.
Be united to be stronger! :joy:
Please write down all of your tricks.
Here are some pictures of my changing hair color:
One or two henna sessions - fading:

More fading - less brown, more red:

So far my best result - thats what I want! Freshly hennad:

Last henna result - nice but very non-lasting:
