for me at least...lol

Although I didn't realize today is Friday the 13th and of course this is the first time doing roots only, well sort of. I did use the color I had left over on the rest of my head but I mixed it different then last time so I have no idea what I will look like. Last time I used Fresh Organic Rajasthani Indian Henna Powder 100 % with about 75% indigo (on and I always add a bit of camellia oil to henna to help with smoothing and moisturizing). That was for my whole head and while I liked the overall color I feel that my ends look much darker, almost one tone brown with no red.

Today I used the Raj with 1 T cocoa powder and only a smidge of indigo. Why you ask? Well I wanted to experiment and was hoping that it wouldn't be as dark with the cocoa powder instead of straight indigo.

Hopefully I will like the results. Will post pictures in a few days and you can let me know what you think.

Comments are always welcome :)

I am jealous!! Although, I only have one bag of henna left and I am trying for only once a month on henna. Not sure if I will be able to buy another anytime soon so this one should last me one or two applications.

Thank you ladies for all your comments! :)

so far so good, I am happy with the color so far. Can't really tell about ends but I think I do like the way it came out with the cocoa powder. Will post and see what you all think in a few days.

Have a wonderful weekend :grouphug:

My hair is black, grays are almost burgundy in sun. I love it color wise, my hair feels over protein so I'm trying an SMT.
