Henna only on one part of the hair?

[snuflan]

Hi! Has anyone ever tried henna on just your bangs, some sections, or the under part of your hair while leaving the rest natural/another color? I’m curious! If you have, please post a picture so I can see how it looks!

I had the opposite, henna head with black at the nape, also did pink at the nape once too.
I don't have pics anymore, my computer is corrupt and I lost everything.
The two tone looked good, especially the black

Sounds really cool!!

That's something I'm planning to do. I will for sure henna my ends for fun (I have kept my ends dyed (with Elumen) for quite a long time, but it's all virgin now and I just miss it) and maybe the underpart at my nape too...

I've seen people do this! If you want to do a gradient, do it on wet hair and it'll wick a bit and give you a nice fade

How do you mean? This sounds interesting!

For example, if you wanted to do just the ends of your hair for a dip-dyed look, you make a thin mud and apply to wet hair, then put the ends in a baggie. The dye-water will wick up the hair a bit so it's a fade rather than a hard line.

That's so cool, Nightshade! Can't believe I've never thought to do that in the years I've done henna.

Not my idea to be fair, it's one I read around here years ago!

That sounds great, thanks! With Elumen I went for a hard line and was happy with it, but if there's an easy way to have a mote fade style, I'm gonna give it a chance.
