Thanks!!

It is starting to oxidize. I'm seeing less fire and more mahogany tones as the day goes on, which I'm more than fine with. I think one application was plenty enough.

How much does it typically oxidize? I was mentally prepared for all possible shades but I LOVE the colour it is right now.

I depends. Full henna oxidizes the most, but diluted blends with less henna oxidize less as their final color is lighter and ore copper

Ah that is good to know.
This was 45 henna 65 cassia so hopefully this won't change too much.

Super pretty henna, you both!

Beautiful color!! I love it!

Thanks, Jane99, this henna adventure has been so worth it. Still not too much oxidization. I'm still waiting until Monday to take a post a pic but I'll do a few photos in different lighting so you guys can see the color. I'll also give an old pic of my natural color so you can see what my results were from start.

Ahh ok sorry for the delay guys I'm still doing the oxidation experiment! I haven't gotten around to taking pics because I've been so busy with yard work and gardening over the weekend but stay tuned. Lol
