Has anyone tried this : http://www.ehow.com/how_5531068_remove-henna-deep-hair-cuticle.html ?


It must be really drying for the hair, no ?

Wonder if it really works ... I'd be curious to test with shed hair !

The intro is refreshingly accurate however the statement in the "Tips and Warnings" at the bottom saying "Henna is oil based and coats the hair ....", sticks in my craw a bit :rolleyes:

Anyhoo....

I am very curious too. It does sound horrifically drying but I don't mind making a hairball scream in agony ... so I will try this :agree:

The darned colorfix thread tempted me into purchasing a second box to experiment (first experiment resulting in barely lifted, but greenish hair). This second time around has been less then stellar as well. Bummer. :(

That has been tried and discredited a few times and discussed on henna forums. If only henna removal was that simple, lol.

I, too, remember several people trying this without any measure of success.

Oh, sorry for making another thread about it then !

Maybe I'll still try with shed hair, out of curiosity lol
