Hi all.
I am in the process of testing a ball of hair right now. This is only the first time I've ever used henna so I am only leaving the mixture for an hour (at most!) I'm even considering rinsing the test strand after 45mins.
So my questions are:
1)should I wait a couple days to see what the color will really look like?
2) what do I do with the henna mix in the process? After I mixed it yesterday, I let it sit wrapped up in my kitchen cabinet under the sink all afternoon, all night and until 12pm today. Is it okay to just leave it like that?
Thank you!

I would let it oxidize for 3-4 days to get your final result before doing a whole head application. I would also put that mix in the freezer ASAP! The dye will demise if you leave it out too long.
