We probably answer more questions about our henna hair dyes than just about any other product at Lush. Do you use the whole block? Will it work on your grays? And, of course, how do you use it? As always, Erica is here to help with this crash course on our plant-based hair dyes.
Erica starts us off with a history lesson explaining both the brick’s unique shape and style, as well as Lush’s own 40-year journey with these vegan hair dyes. Each shade is a unique mix harkening back to co-founder Mark Constantine’s origins as a trichologist and henna colorist in the United Kingdom, and each mix is handmade with a blend that brings out each beautiful color. From lemon juice and coffee to nettle powder and cocoa butter, every dye is designed to yield the most vibrant hues on every head of hair.

Wish we could see the bricks on different hair colors and what they look like
Kate Minney it’s probably hard finding models to stain their hair with this super permanent color
Different colors....they.... would look like........ different colors.
@@wimpyshrimpy7836 they could do a strand test on human hair extensions. You don't need a whole head of hair to see the results.
@@MessiahMarieYT the point is to see the results on varying shades of natural hair. I know they would look like different colors. I want to see what the results are if you put brun on blonde hair vs. a darker hair color at the start.
It will never EVER come out
Aww I was hoping for a demo :(
They have a couple demos on their channel :3 just search "henna" and a few will pop out, one specifically is called "How to apply Lush Henna Hair Dye"
Hi love, sorry that this video didn't include a demo. We do have an in-depth step by step of how to apply henna in a secondary video. Check it out here: ua-cam.com/video/XK51UvWER6Y/v-deo.html
"I swear you don't have to use a grader" lmaoooo, you LITERALLY need to use a grader, otherwise its like putting sand straight up in your hair and it's impossible to rinse off. If you make it into a powder first and then dilute in hot water works a thousand times better. Take it from an ex lush employee who used this henna multiple times. I must say it leaves your hair so soft and shiny! Such a great product :) but make sure to dissolve it properly lmao.
I use it perfectly fine without grating it. It takes a bit longer to smelt/dissolve, but that is time (and effort!) I would have to put into grating otherwise (I tried grating before and decided that method was not for me). If it is too sandy, I feel not enough water was used to dissolve it. So I would suggest to people to try both options and see what you prefer.
I agree, it was so sandy I used to use a whole brick for my head! I now realize I could’ve done it smarter and had several uses.
Leo Y. Will it cover the gray hair
@@donnaserret895 It will cover grey hair, but the colour differences in your hair will still be (somewhat) visible. When I use caca rouge, my grey hair will be a more bright orange compared to my other hair. This is because henna applies a coating around your hair, instead of opening up the hair to deposit the colour inside (hence no damage to the hair). I prefer it this way, as it also results in a more natural look.
Esya Silverwind henna doesnr coat anything, it binds to the keratin inside the strand. Thats also why it is hard to remove.
wow! you went back 1000 years and did not Mention India even once?! Whats up with that #Lush?
Hi there, Riddhi. Thank you for taking the time to reach out to us. We created this Deep Dives video to explain how the concept of Lush henna was created and to help familiarize our customers with how our henna is used. The henna that we use is sourced from Iran, but we recognize and respect the cultural significance that it has in other countries. We're so sorry if this video was not a reflection of this and we appreciate you sharing your thoughts with us.
Omg!! Henna was being used for 1000 of years in many different cultures not just Indian
Fully agree with you Riddhi.
Who cares! She is talking about the product per say... eeeeeverybody knows who stated Henna and it wasn't only in India!
@@t-.-t. it was you research
Was it hard to spend 5 seconds on mentioning Africa, the Middle East, Persia and South Asia.
I swear they choose to ignore thousand years of tradition occurring in Asia and Africa -_-.
Plus adding coconut oil is useless since water and oil don't mix , the oil will prevent the color to die the hair . Coconut oil is often used to minimize failed hair color and make the color leave faster
Nobody likes you.
Not everything is about race.
@@rebekkiej who the heck mentioned race ? We're talking about intelectual honesty here
Chalux ! Ak they were talking about the lush product, not the whole history. Some people probably just wanted to have a concise video to learn about what the product will do. And there’s no coconut oil in the dye, just coco butter.
Am I the only one who's watching this even tho I have no plans to dye my hair at all? Haha
I'm dying my hair platinum so 😂
Ellen Widén me! Lol
Soooo you went back 1000 years ago but you didn't mention the ACTUAL heritage of Henna.....so just ignore India.....hum.....🤔
@@user-lg3yj2fz2j Many people don't. And people do care. Bye.
@@Stefan-hf6xb It actually is very personal especially since she went back into Lush history....she made it personal. It just would've been something good ethnically and educational to mention.
Jesyca Thomas literally no one cares it fucking hair dye 🙄
@@acrumpledmemo Literally people do care. I care, people that liked my comment care, people that commented that they care care as well. Let's be clear, YOU just don't care. Don't confuse the two.
Jesyca Thomas i totally get where you are coming from. I do think they should have talked about the history of it a little and where it came from.
What inspired them and how Mark came to find it. And why he was so into it.
And most definitely where they get the ingredients and the ethical ways they harvest it and help the people of that region.
overprice block of henna! in asia u can get it for (from) less than one dollar
If you took time to actually check the ingredients you would see this isnt just henna. There are also a heep of other ingredients that make this more expensive.
@@rebekkiej the ingredients pretty straight forward, and should not be very expensive. thats why i think lush pretty overpriced for such a diy product.
it's not that easily accessible where i'm from (midwest in the usa) so this at least gives people here the option if they want it. you are free to get your henna wherever you're able to access it
@@TheLark420 if you're into this you should totally buy bulk from Amazon. There are way better ones than lush
It’s really good quality though. And it can be used several times on a whole head.
Where's all my Arab, African and Asian sisters that have been doing this for thousands of years❤
Not on this video- because we know this lush stuff is trash ❤
...Aren’t you probably like 22 or something. Nobody in this comment section has been doing it for thousands of years lol
Not only sisters but brothers as well. My dad still uses this as a dye.😄😄😄
adee ha and African...
Hey don’t forget us Africans !! Lol we also use this as well 💕💕💕
In henna we stand ! Lol
"Caca brun" literally means "Brown poop" in French like... Wtf Lush
Exactement
scarmander sounds like it in Spanish too
😂😂
I know right I was wondering why they would name it that
Lol originated in Asia, made in America and named in France?????
Globalization
Made in UK and Canada too especially in Canada French is a secondary language for us
@@Sinnabunny1 That doesn’t mean anything
Girl I am Egyptian we have been doing this for the last 8 thousand years
Moon Mm well I’m Egyptian too soo 🙏
ايه ده دا الدنيا ديقه يا جدع 😂
It literally says *CACA* on it 🤣
Brooo shut up so funny
Here's a tip I found out on my own; you actually can over-cook it and that will ruin the henna.
Thanks, that helped me a lot!
Over-cook ? Explain that...
Only using hot water ruins henna. Go for baq henna if you want to have the full effect.
i love lush but jesus y’all hate to mention india huh
Ikr it’s like why not mention it’s history?? That would’ve been so interesting!
And they did not mention Africa or Middle East.
"caca brun" means "Brown poop" in french. You're welcome
I mean caca is poop in spanish too 😂
Yall just go to an Indian store and buy it for 10x cheaper,you’re getting ripped off.
Even crunchy vegan health food stores sell it cheaper. Wish I had done a bit more research before I impulse bought this one last week. I'm gonna go ahead and use what I bought but if I decide to keep it up there's plenty of other brands I'm going to look for first
yeah and sell it with harsh chemicals too...
And calculate a few hours to clean your kitchen and bathroom and buy yourself a new cutting board. I have been using henna (powder) for years and was surprised how much more expensive, difficult, frustrating and messy this was. Back to powder now and adding 'all the good stuff' in myself.
Omg, I wish I read this before buying. I was applying it in the bathroom, and I realiseed it would be better to apply the lush henna literally in the shower Instead. Lots of bits kept falling out even though I had mixed it up into a smooth paste 🤣
As an Indian I must say it's not natural henna, Natural henna is more nature green in color and in powdered form 😊 And Indian women apply it on their head to get red colored smooth shiny hair... For best results we mix the powder in water in any iron container 🌱
It is natural henna it's justed mixed with other things like indigo and cocoa butter which gives it different shades and makes it into the block. The cocoa butter is used because it is super moisturizing.
Top tip: “buy two of our products!”
Oh capitalism...
Pls make a how it’s made video for it. Thx!
Hey love, that is a great suggestion. We will make sure to pass it along. 🧡
I’m really interested in layering the colours and the results of it. I need to see a demo
Did my first henna dye with Marron at the weekend and I just love it. My boss even complimented me on the colour today!
Caca means shit in Spanish. Great marketing 😂
Just plant the mehandi plant yoursef...And make your own henna...
@@user-wp5cf4uf3b and cost effective and gives free oxygen😌
It's so difficult to decide because you don't know how it turns out. I wish there were pictures of before and after with many different hair types so you could at least imagine what it'll look like
Don’t use this if you ever want to bleach your hair. I used the Brun and then wanted to go blonde two months after, (so I didn’t have a lot of growth) I did a test section to see how the bleach would react and it made my hair super brittle and break off. I had never died my hair prior to henna and I went to a professional salon. The people working at lush never told me anything about how you can’t bleach your hair after using it. There is also no way to remove it from your hair once it is died.
Sophia Steve yes they say do not use bleach on henna thats NOT 100% henna. I use 100% henna (red henna is 100% aka caca rouge) it has no metallic salts. I did a bleach bath to lighten my henna and had no problem at all. Apart from the fact my back got chemical burn... but my hair turned out great :)
Yeah, mix bleach and indigo and you get melted hair. Try straight henna powder. I recommend Rainbow henna because they guarantee no indigo in the original red.
For those wondering: I have naturally light brown/dark blonde hair and I use the Lush henna hair dye on my hair. I use a mix of rouge and marron to obtain a rich, natural, not so bright red hair. I have really fine hair so I use about 1 1/2 blocks of the rouge and then add 1/2 a block of marron 🤗✨
Iv been dyeing my hair with lush henna for 2 years now and I love it would never change!! My hairs gone from brittle and very damaged to shinney and I always get complements. The more you use it the better the results and easier it gets to work with x
So happy to hear that your hair has been loving our henna! Thanks so much for sharing, lovely. 💕
I've heard henna can make your hair very dry. That's my main hair problem since I have curly hair and and afraid to use henna!! Help!! Lol
@@chelseygarrett4221 Curly girl here: It's no problem. After you wash most of the henna out, grab a thick, CG-approved conditioner and work through the hair. You'll need a lot of it, but eventually you'll get a good slip and then you'll know that you're done. Then wash it out and add products as needed. I've used Maui Moisture Smoothie and had great results. Just don't freak out when you have to use handfuls of the stuff. LOL. Henna can work really well with curly hair--it will actually help hold in the moisture in the long run.
Hi there, Chelsey! Our henna has shine-enhancing and conditioning properties. If you find that you hair is particularly dry, following up with your favorite conditioner after washing the henna out would also help! 😊
Lush Cosmetics North America how long should I keep the henna in my hair.
I have never seen more misinformed, arrogant hairdressers in one comment section. This is hilarious.
Hint; good quality henna does not contain metallic salts.
Misinformed lol! My fellow human being mostly people in this comment section are Asian or Africans and henna has been in there lifes for the longest time. My sister makes natural henna and sells it less then $5. Talking with personal experience dried henna never looks brown it's always this greenish color that gets the brown color after dye release
Tips for people who wanna use henna (Not this garbage henna but the ones you can get at Southeast Asian stores and Middle Eastern stores)
Add warm water in your henna along with 1tbsp of lemon juice, ginger juice, mustard oil, Fenugreek powder, 1-2 egg whites and leave it for 1 hr then apply thoroughly in your hair. Wash after keeping it on your hair for 1-2hrs depending on your time availability.
I do not suggest mustard oil for people with oily skin. I have added plain yoghurt too sometimes.
All these addition helps with dandruff, gives shine, makes your root strong, makes hair smooth and helps with growth.
Ps. This has been used for generations in my community and it’s awesome.
As a hairstylist I can’t stop cringing
Tell your story
Why?
@@T19835dght bullshit.
EYEoftheneedle my hair has never been healthier since I started using henna. As long as you’re careful about where to purchase henna (to avoid harmful metals and other chemicals) It’s really great.
Michelle N sweetie I’m doing just fine
Excuse me but henna isnt something discovered or invented by your founder. It has existed for thousands of years as a hair dye in many different civilizations- Indian, Arab mainly. By not specifying that you imply this is a brand new product that has never been seen before instead of the iteration it is.
Lush's cosmetic and hair dye lines are... let's just leave it at that. Just like how they blatantly couldn't give props to Indian/African culture for being the original creators. I highly doubt this Mark guy invented hair henna 🙄
As a hairdresser If you plan for on having any chemical service on your hair do not use this product
Jess Hewitson i believe it is safe with lush henna, just not the “faker” ones that contain this certain thing( forgot the name) that reacts bad with chemicals
Guuuuysss henna originated almost everywhere around the world not just India
Henna hair dye is WAY cheaper on Amazon just saying.. Many different brands to choose from. I love henna-ing my hair!
I have dark brown / black hair. If I use the brown hair dye will it make my hair a little bit lighter or would it so nothing since my hair is dark?
Because it coats the hair it wouldn't do much!! If you use the noir (black) it will give it slightly navy blue undertones in the sunlight. If you use rouge itll give a red/orange undertone! Hope this helps xx
Hi, love! When it comes to using henna, the color will coat the strand and not penetrate it, in other words, henna tints your hair but there won't be a drastic difference. Hope this helps, hun!
I always compare it to staining vs. Painting a piece of wood. Traditional hair dyes is like paint. Changing any color to any other color, covering the original color. Henna is like staining. It used the natural hair color as a base and stains it with natural loss and highs keeping the dimension. Unfortunately you cant go lighter with henna.
Henna does not loop arount the hair. It bonds to the keratin of the hair. Thats also why its so hard to remove. I freaking love the result caca rouge gives me though. Its amazing.
Caca rouge meaning red poop in French
I used the Rouge one, I was a bit confused about how long i should leave it so i lefy it 4 hours. I ended up with a bright orange (nit what i expected but i liked it). For about 2 weeks my hair smelt like boiled vegetable, especially when wet and i hated that. The color would also run everytime i would wash it. But eventually i got this nice red color and it stayed like that for a long time. Great thing is that it faded but there never really was a huge mark when my hair grew back. I noticed it in some pictures when my hair was in a pony tail, about 9 months after i had died it. It was a great color, but the process was super messy. I had to use the whole thing, and it took me forever to apply it, and good thing i covered the floor with cardboard and newspaper, and that the walls were covered in tiles that i immediately wiped. Also, when in the hair it gets super messy and tangled.
I was debating on henna for years until I bit the bullet and did it for the first time 5 years ago. I should have read more in depth- it SUCKED on boxed-colored hair, the roots were never the same color, no matter what color I used, and it was an all around mess on my head. Cut it away, started new, but eventually, I was bad and started using box dye again. Cut to last year, I got to work from home and went a little...nuts. Bleach, box, bleach, box, hair falling out. Shaved it off. Colored for the first time last August when I had enough hair with Lush henna and oh my GOD, so much better this time around, and now it's all I'll use forever more. Lush, you've saved my hair and my sanity. I love this stuff and will never box dye again. So lesson learned, kiddos- DON'T dye over box dye with this, because your roots will NEVER match. This is best for people who 1. Have virgin hair and 2. Don't like to change that much. It does only come in 3 colors (I don't count the straight brown, that's more of a block conditioner, honestly) and depending on your hair, you'll get bright orange, rusty orange, fire red, deep red, and dark, rich chocolate brown. My roots are mostly gray and when I dye it with Noir, they come out very light brown, almost blonde.
What even ... I see very bad reactions to henna in the comments and let me assure you pure henna used in India, Pakistan etc are very healthy and great for hair! Lmao I even have a henna plant in my backyard. We usuallyUse natural henna powders that comes in bags
Ima buy the real deal from my corner shop for a better price no processed henna
Erica, you explain things so well! I swear you have talked me into so many new and amazing products 💕😊👌
I'm glad you're finding these useful! xoErica
I wanna say because of lush I grew my hair back from trictillomania henna made my hair grew faster stronger and roots made my huge bauld spots grow back under 4 months thank you lush from anywhere my opion on henna i love it I probably went though 5 bricks under 6 months
I’m here for the same reason .. I hope it works
I was wanting to see a demo or a before and after on different hair colors and types.
Henna is very common in Libya
We mix the grounded henna with diffrent things like red tea, blended beetroot water, pomegranate water and many other diffrent things to get different colors
Please please please mention to your hair dresser if you go to a salon and you’ve hennad your hair before. Even though it’s natura it will cause a metallic wall reaction and melt your hair strands.
Arden Berkely what?
EYEoftheneedle thank you, actually i have long harir since age 6 and still keep them long and I am over 30 now. Used henna a few times as my mom did it for me to make then stronger when I was a teenager. I have never considered changing my hair colour or any chemical changes but if what you say is true I will not be entitled to do anything like this for at least few years?! Have you experienced somebody going bald because of using chemicals on henna died hair?!
I love these vids so much I watch them over and over!!!
The Life Of Rachel same! 😊
Hi hun, we are so glad you are loving the videos! Which product would you like to see on Deep Dives next?
LUSH Cosmetics North America - AHHHH I CANT BELIEVE YOU REPLYYYEDDD!! Anyway I would love to see the Mother’s Day collection and basically a how it’s made for every bath bomb
I ❤️ lush ~
Noted! 😘
I've tried and tried using henna from Lush but found powder online for a fraction of the price much cheaper and not a massive pain.
Lush I love you but it's a messy nightmare. I've found you need to grate it for easy mixing with hot water, which is long and 1000x more difficult than grating cheese.
Once heated up and application time comes you must now battle with getting it onto your head, the consistency is like thin mud, then you need to keep it hot or it becomes mud flakes. The mud doesn't smooth on and flicks all over the bathroom... 3hrs minimum on your head. While this is happening you have henna dribbling down your neck and forehead from all the bits that have got warm, got runny and escaped your fashionable cling film wrapped alien head. So you can't 'do chores' etc while it's on your head as you need to be constantly monitoring the dribble situation.
Meanwhile up top you now have crusty drying mud.
So 3+hrs later rinse out time, best to put some sort of strainer over the plughole as the henna mud likes to block as I found out once the hard way.
The hair does feel much much healthier afterwards but don't expect any dramatic colour change until the third go.
After all the above the most frustrating thing I find is the leaflet that comes with it is absolutely useless.
Pros, the store local to me sells for £10 a block which will dye my shoulder length hair 3 times.
All in all there are better more traditional hennas available online or failing that I've now switched to Holland & Barret dyes as they are vegan and cruelty free.
In India we do it every 3 months lol
The whole head or just the roots?
Its not only hair dye. You can melt it and put it in a piping bag and make designs on nails, hands, arms and feet.
Btw, you don’t know what shade you’re getting of the color you choose, you don’t pick the undertones, it’s ridiculously hard to lift out of your hair, it stains everything like crazy, hairstylists and cosmetologists will tell you not to use it, and it’s an all around not-the-best-idea unless you really just don’t care for an exact color and really desire a natural way of changing your hair’s color.
Henna cured my scalp psoriasis, I can't recommend it enough!
I’m kind of disappointed in my recent lush henna job. So I used to use Marron 2 years ago and I did it about 3 or 4 times until last year April I decided to stop dying my hair for a while. Then recently I wanted to Noir but I had my old henna still in my hair which made half of my head brown (my natural colour) and half red. So after watching this video she mentioned using Rouge first to get an even toned base for the darker colours..... I’m literally so upset with the outcome. I used Rouge 2 days ago and Noir yesterday and my hair is now DARK GINGER, the furthest thing from dark brown or blackish which is what I wanted. I did so much research on what’s the best way to achieve a deep dark colour but instead I’m now dark ginger and I have no idea what to do, and if I knew this would of happened I would of scarped the Rouge altogether but I hoped it would even out my hair colour. I used to love lush henna but now I don’t think I’ll ever be purchasing it again as the information in this video literally meant nothing regarding the results I saw. Instead of the rouge toning my hair it was so strong that underneath Noir it’s still ginger, not even red but like ORANGE. Can’t even describe how upset I am.
Just saying,"caca brun" means brown poop in French.. Maybe you should change what's written because it's not appealing at all
And in spanish too caca marron😅😅
I’d love to see the henna on a hair model next time! Maybe even on different hair colors (ie. rouge henna on blonde, brunette, red head )
It doesn’t look like Erica Vega uses this henna on her hair
You're right! I like my natural color with all the grays :) xoErica
@@whiteprayingmantis I think it looks good on you and I liked the message if choice and individual beauty that's backgrounded by using a woman with greying hair as the spokesperson here. That said...how *does* this product work on greys and how to handle the... line of demarcation?
@@stanamilanovich3956 That's a good question! It is known to be a tone-on-tone color, so it does not 100% cover grays and we've often said they have a "sparkling" effect. BUT, having said that, I have seen a double application take on gray hair flawlessly and remain true to the color for weeks afterwards! Imagine putting a gloss of color on, then another gloss on top of that. It definitely builds, and as you continue to use it over time, the color builds even more.
@Erica Vega, I also have white hairs (Quite proud of them, actually). I was told that henna would be the best choice to color my hair, but keep the white. Is that true?
@@wendijackson8844 Hi Wendy! Just in case you didn't see my reply above, i copied it here for you. Lemme know if you do it!

Juliet Peterson you’d be dumb wasted within the first 30 seconds😂
I have mostly grey hair, salt and pepper but mostly salt (perhaps 80% grey). The Rouge left me with a natural red head look, probably because how grey my hair is naturally.
the lady every two seconds: “hmmm” *smacks lips*
Okay why do i want to take advice from someone who doesnt trust your product? If you did you wouldn't be walking around with grey hair!!
Well I'm one for using henna I think it's excellent especially for ppl that are allergic to dyes and I'm one of them ppl so I tried Reshma and I love it you have to experiment on different colors to get the color u really want meaning I wanted a burgundy but the red was a little orangey red so mixed black in it and it came out perfect I love me some Henna !!!
So, I never dyed my hair before.
I'm 27, with medium length hair, dull dark brown.
On a day off I decided to give this a shot. (New to hair care)....
The product actually works. Keep in mind I did not wash my hair for 3 days prior, and left the henna in for 6 hours. The brick was good for 3 hair dyes/treatments. The whole month at work I received compliments that my hair looked shiny.
I used the Coco Maron. It will definitely give your hair a natural red hue.
If anyone is going to try this product reply down below. There is some things you should no first to extend the henna brick and get better results.
She’s giving me grade 3 teacher vibes and I’m loving it
my asian and african sisters where you at??
Friendly reminder from a hairdresser- it is impossible to get henna out of your hair. You cannot bleach it out. So if you do this, you can’t change your hair until it grows out. Just make sure this is REALLY what you want before you do it.
I have used the rouge henna for 2 years now and yes it started out startlingly pumpkin orange (had white/grey hair) it's now the most incredible auburn colour. Have had strangers actually stop me in the street and say what a fab colour.
How long to go from orange to auburn?
@@hippybecca 5 to 6 applications
If you’re considering this just keep in mind that it will only fade naturally, hot oil treatments will help but you can’t bleach henna colored out. I had mostly virgin full length hair and my ends had leftover blue black henna and no amount of bleaching would make it go away (I tried twice and toned after to keep my hair healthy)
Can you use this on bleached hair? Like my hair is light full head of bleached hair with some medium brown roots coming in. I wanna use Brun but some videos say it goes either bright red or green?! How do I get my hair from bleached blonde to medium brown????
Hi there, love! You can use henna over top of bleached hair. However, once you color your hair with henna, you won't be able to use chemical dyes or chemical processes on top! Brun uses a combination of both henna and indigo and since you would be coloring over blonde hair, the indigo may cause the hair to have a bit of a green-ish tinge. If you wanted to try using henna, we would recommend using a more red henna, like Rouge, first before following up with Brun and we always recommend doing a strand test before applying the full treatment. The results you achieve from henna can vary depending on your individual hair, so it's always best to do a strand test first. 😊
Can you use this Henna on already permanently dyed hair? My hair has been dyed black with a professional color and I have dark blonde roots. I want to do root touch ups myself with a more natural dye because my skin is sensitive to most conventional dyes.
I want to try this because I love the fact that it's all-natural, but I'm scared I'll mess up my hair cause I've never used henna before. >.
Overpriced "henna" tint. I use straight henna powder (ground up leaves) mixed with water and it gives more coverage and brighter color than whatever that is. I paied $10 for a gigantic jar of it. No grating, no boiling, almost no work at all. Just mix with warm water and slather it in.
can you put it on just your tips?
I used the noir henna last week for the first time. It's dead winter and it was difficult to melt and apply, it would cool down too quickly even with a pot of hot water underneath. Also because it dries so quickly you can't comb it through. I tried to comb it and it crumbled into a mess. I liked the end result, it wasn't as hard to wash out and it didn't stain my shower like boxed due would. My hair is thin and curly and the henna did make it feel thicker and straighter, at first I didn't think it covered my grays but the next day they were barely visible. It doesn't leave your hair shinny but kind of mate.
I love this and learn to make a double broiler with a crockpot so it would stay warm. And if I needed to add water, the water from the crockpot pot was the perfect temperature.
Lush Drinking Game: any time she says um or “tongue snaps” drink! 🥴

I have to blend it or it ends up being all chunky. I love the colour of my hair and its never been so healthy!
We're so happy to hear that you're loving your results from our henna! 💕
Her hand movements are so calming omg
Notice how she says it will stain your skin. It will also stain your hair just like hair color.
I got Marron I have light brown hair and it made it really dark :( I’m so disappointed
It didn't work that well and was a huge mess. I like the smell.
I wanted mine rouge I just tried it and didn't turn out bright as I wanted to be I left it for 4 hrs. Could it be maybe because in Nov. I colored dark brown 3x with henna BUT different brand prior to that I was coloring it with henna red and some other color. I really want it very bright copper. The Rouge. Maybe Lush sent me the wrong color. My hair turned out brownish with reddish tint. I will wait couple of days and see what color it turns out.
Please for the love of everything good do not even ATTEMPT to bleach out henna. Wish she had mentioned this, your hair will disintegrate
.... of course you are going to reccommend buying 2 of the bricks to "layer the colors"....
But that's how henna works. You layer the colors and they get deeper and richer every time.
Okay guys. DONT BUY THIS PRODUCT IF YOU DONT LIKE MESS ILTHE MESS IT LEAVES IS FUCKING ATROCIOUS!!!! I just spent an entire hour bleaching and mopping my bathroom
My grandma and me was doing this before lush 😆😆
I have natural auburn hair but with cool tone skin. Which henna should I buy to put cool tones in my auburn hair without making it just brown? TIPS PLEASE THANK YOU
Just google your closest Asian/Indian market and supoort locals rather than Lush thats a horrible gimmick company anyways.....?
I used the marron colour on my brown hair and the results are great :) Now it has warmer undertones and is much smoother. The only minus is the smell, I don't know if it's the coffee or what but for those 4 hours when i had it on my head, I wanted to puke :/
its like a dentist widout few missing thooths trying to convince you hi knows his shit.... dye ur hair before u chose recomand this .. really poor choise
... But why the fuck does it have to smell like coffee?
That's shits nasty I aint gonna be putting that up in my beard, also it's overpriced.... Becasue lush
Why are there so many offended people in the comment talking about how the history of henna wasn't PROPERLY covered? I came here to learn about the product uses not get a history lesson.
No offence, Erica’s hair doesn’t look great lol. Looks damaged and unhealthy. Haha. How can you talk about henna being good for your hair when hers looks dead.
Wow, people in the comments please learn to mention South Asia not just India this + India that. Some of y'all talking as if India goes ignored which isn't even th e case so maybe down your ego a bit?
Indian here... Henna is great if you want reddish hair... Which isn't a great look for everyone. Henna turns grey hair into red, giving raise to old brown red heads. I honestly never got the look but it's very common here. Especially in our Muslim communities. We see grandparents do this to their hai. Some granmpas even have their beards and look little funny to be honest. I hope this is not the case and you have added other things that don't turn the hair into a weird red, and the colour options you provided are close to what you get.
Why you didn't mention that henna traditional dyes from arab,??.you stolen our history and products without mentioning us???
Henna I is just as bad as hair dye folks. Don't expect to ever be blonde if you've used henna in the near past. I do have cosmetology training and 3 years salon experience. This is a scam.
Don't waste your money on lush henna. Its crap. I have used the red one & didn't do a thing.
I have done henna for years so I know what I'm talking about. Just buy the real powder form an Indiann shop or persian.
She NEEDS to color her hair, can't take her seriously... she's obviously never used it.
My hair is black but I want to dye it to a REALLY light brown, which one do you recommend I buy?
