OK. so i dyed my hair with henna but it wasn't the fresh stuff and it was very grainy, so it wasnt the best . My hair looks good and it very shiny but.. it didnt cover my (natural) bleach blonde streaks,it made them orange. My questian is would the good fresh tattoo body quality henna cover those streaks?

I'm afraid it might not. The lighter the hair is, the more orange it gets with henna (at least with my experience). You might try darkening those specific strands, but if you use henna on all of your hair the same the lighter strands will always be brighter than the rest of your hair.

If you have only just done this, give the henna time to develop it can take a week to see the real colour. Although your lighter bits will stay lighter compared to the non-lightened hair which I think will look really nice. It will go darker each application too.
