I've been itching to henna my hair and now that I'm 2 years post relaxer! and 2 months natural, I am gonna get back into a henna routine. This is my Henna Gloss version. **side note: I got a lot of my inspiration from CurlyNikki.com and Hairscapades.com** I purchased my henna from hennasooq.com and ordered the Fresh Organic Body Art Quality Rajasthani Indian Henna Powder. Body Art Quality is the only kind of henna you should use on your hair! I mixed 200 mg of henna powder with 3 cups warm green tea until I had a mashed potato texture. Let sit 2 hours covered. Then I added Tresemme Anti-Breakage conditioner to the mix until it looked like cake batter. Let sit 1 hour....actually more like 2 hours because then I ran an errand and shampooed my hair. I shampooed with Aveeno Anti-Dandruff shampoo (contains sulfates) I let my hair airdry 80% and applied the henna in sections. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO COMB THRU YOUR HAIR ONCE HENNA IS APPLIED AS THIS WILL CAUSE YOUR HAIR TO SNAP; HENNA IS VERY THICK AND HEAVY. Then I covered with a plastic bag for 4 hours. Then rinse, rinse, rinse until water runs clean. I deep conditioned afterwards with the Beautiful Textures deep treatment and did my wash n go as normal. Total time spent was 9 hours.
