Henna ideas

[Anksa Na]

Hi
I've been away from LHC for a little while. Have been doing henna and henna + amla every month. Hair has been healthier but I am not 100% happy with the color. Have had comments that some like it and want to try henna and have had comments like"WOw...pause...It's vibrant". I would like less vibarancy, orangey color.

I have grey hairs on the top of head. I'm thinking about adding highlights to go lighter.
(Without henna my hair was a light to dark brown with some grey). Or I was thinking of doing a demi-permanent color to soften the hue. ANy suugestions?

Thank you.

Next time you henna, you may want to add in some cassia for a lighter,blonder color, or indigo for more brown.

HI Mellie Have been staying away from Indigo. What do you use on your haie

[mellie]

I use Rainbow brand henna, the Dark Brown color. From what the company told me in an email, it doesn't contain indigo. I think this is probably true, because I tried bleaching a test hair sample, and it bleached just like normal. It does a good job on my grays.

Here are my grays before and after:
