I colored my hair with Lush henna - it looks the same color, but it changed my hair texture - it feels GREAT but I think I need to clarify big time because it feels really oily and lanky. I made the mistake today of conditioner-only washing today which did me no favors. I've french braided it to keep it off my face as I sleep tonight (ugh, the grease) and I'm thinking tomorrow I'll use my Giovanni Smooth As Silk shampoo with some baking soda.

Henna doesn't lift, right? Not that I'm sure it matters. I'd like to at least keep the shine and slick cuticle, but I have got to get rid of the waxy lanky feeling.

I also have ACV - how do you use this? Is it bad to use it after baking soda?

Suggestions welcome!
