Henna Powder - Brown

This Henna Powder produces a high quality Henna stain. Henna is commonly used for colouring hair and skin, however it is also used in shampoos, conditioners and soaps for it's softening qualities.

Henna is a natural semi permanent dye and colour will fade over 2-3 months. Available in Black, Brown, Burgundy, Copper, Natural and Red. Natural is used as a conditioning treatment and does not tend to change the colour of your hair if you have natural red highlights, however if you are grey, it will turn bright orange (as we discovered when I put my leftover mix on Steve's hair).

It is not advised to use henna on chemically treated hair, including dyed bleached or permed. When used on partly gray hair an uneven effect may occur.

1. Wear plastic gloves and wear old clothes as henna will stain .

2. For short hair mix 60g of henna with 1 cup of hot water, for shoulder length or longer hair, mix 90 –120g with 1.5 – 2 cups of hot water. Stir until an even paste is formed.

3. Allow mixture to stand 4 – 5 minutes to cool.

4. Apply mixture with a brush or with gloved fingers straight onto dry hair. Section the hair and apply the henna from the roots to the nape working up to the crown of the head.

5. Ensure the hair is evenly coated and leave to develop for a minimum of 15 minutes. The longer the henna is left on the hair, the deeper the colour will be.

6. Rinse hair thoroughly with warm water when finished to remove all the henna, then shampoo and condition as normal. Please note that this product is powder only. Consumers will need their own tools in order to apply the Henna.

We are also stocking Henne Color kits from France.  These consist of Powders and Colouring Cremes in a wide range of colours as well as a fortifying non-tinting powder. You'll find these in our Haircare Range.
