Henna and hair

Ok so I am in the process of hennaing one strand of hair to see how it turns out. It's not in the top layer and not a large strand, about the thickness of the larger variety of spagetti lol. We will see how it turns out in a few hours.

Can't wait to see it Georganne!
I used to dye my hair a lot in high school, but now I am so against all those chemicals. But I get really bored with my mousy brown hair.
My health food store carries henna, and I was thinking about trying it for a bit of change.

Here's a good henna for hair resource. http://www.hennaforhair.com/

Henna is GREAT for the hair. It conditions it as well as colors it. It turned out ok. I'll post pictures tonight.

Ok here is my henna hair strand test. Oh it is very subtle. I think I will do some more since it is.
I also took some other pictures for you all that I'll throw in.

It's really hard to take a picture of a portion of my own hair lol so I am laughing while I am trying to do it.







Thought I would take some pictures while coning up my last batch.





Sorry this is so dark. I was just tickled that I have finally lost enough weight to do my own foot! It's not real good but do you have ANY idea the position one must get into in order to henna one's own foot? It is not a pretty site.

Georganne - that looks so pretty and I feel your inner fire moving into the outer strands of your hair! C'mon now, jump in and join the ranks of us Reds - you'll love it!
P.S. I'm finding that today I'm replying to your posts all over the place!

Nice, Georganne! Love the feet! If my feet were anywhere NEAR being worthy to be seen then I'd love some henna on them too!
