First henna and I am in luuuurrv!! (pics! it happened)

[littleizz]

So I finally got up the courage to use the rajasthani henna from Henna Sooq (http://www.hennasooq.com) that's been in my freezer for a few weeks waiting for my bangs to grow out. I was a little worried at first after rinsing because of the traffic-cone orange hairline, but that faded pretty quickly and now I LOVE Love love love love it!!

Before hair.

The henna! I added a little paprika and ginger, but I doubt it was enough to make a different with color or aroma.

After dye release. I pre-heated the oven to 170, turned it off when I put in the henna, and left it for about two hours.

Strange face in this one, but the hubs took it and it's the best image in natural light.

Originally I was thinking I wanted to go for henna saturation and deep burgundy, but I really really like this! We'll just have to see how my henna maintenance plan works itself out :)

That color looks gorgeous on you and very natural. And I love your updo with the paintbrush:D

[silverstars]

Very pretty!

[littleizz]

Thanks, guys!! I'm glad it looks natural, the one thing I was most worried about was the color just totally not working my my skin. AND added bonus that I didn't plan - it does make my green/brown hazel eyes look crazy green! I love it!

[oktobergoud]

Very pretty! It suits you well :)

Somehow that henna looks delicious! It looks a bit like chocolate... pie.. mix? :P Lol!

[rock007junkie]

I love the new color! Very pretty

Oh, well .. I like your natural color but henna completely opens up your face! Good job, girl!

[einna]

Looks good. It suits you. I liked the before pic also though. ;)

[lunardaydreamer]

Wow! Your hair color was gorgeous before, but your henna-ed hair is so beautiful and looks like you were born with it :) so flattering and lovely. Good luck :)

That is such a pretty color! :)

[hototogisu]

Beautiful results! And that first picture is SO CUTE! You're super-photogenic, I'm jealous!

[maborosi]

Oh wow! Nice color on you! :D

And hmmm...putting henna in the oven is a novel idea...I think I might have to try that out for myself....

~maborosi~

[jojo]

looks so beautiful and the perfect colour for you, it matches your eyes and skin so much.

[Viola88]

Very pretty color :)

[LoveAngelBeauty]

So jealous :) my hair is way too dark to be dyed that dramatically with henna...otherwise...

[jacqueline101]

I love the color.

[melirod]

Very pretty results!

[lacefrost]

I love your hair both ways! You're so pretty!

[sibiryachka]
