Being a Bangladeshi we have used it for decades. How we do it is we apply it on dry/shampooed wet hair and wait for 2-4hrs if its for color (which you need to do once a month, no more than that) or 40min for just conditioning. I mix shikakai,retha,amla, fenugreek,aloe,curryleaf powder. Wash it off when its still wet, don't let the paste get dry. Wash it off without shampoo. Dry your hair naturally and apply flaxseed gel on detangled hair if it's too dry. On your 2nd day apply mustard oil and on third day shampoo it and do your normal hair routine as usual.
Every other week or once every 15days you can do henna gloss and for the rest do hydrating mask which contains little to no protein...too much of anything is not good always... consistency and patience is the key.
Hope it helped...
Hi there, I’m new to henna and indigo, I had virgin black hair, but at 45 starting to get some whites and it was beautiful at first, but now at 48 my hairs is turning gray way to fast so I decided to dye my hair with henna plus indigo, I have to say my experience was ok , did dry my hair a lot even though I used aloe Vera and amla powder, whit the first brand I used, but the indigo didn’t color my now orange gray so I re apply the whole process again with a different organic pure henna and indigo brand powder, and what a difference my hair feels soft and no dry , again I used along with aloe Vera gel and amla powder, and I applied over damp hair, think the quality of the products and the application made it better for my hair, now I do have a question for you , you said you applied a flaxseed mask , and them a mustard seed oil mask , would this process would messed up the indigo dye, I just don’t want to do the process all over again , I will appreciate any advise thank you.
@@Maracz47 no it doesn't interfere with indigo or henna color...in case of henna it needs 24-48hrs to set thoroughly thus everyone advices to wait for 2days before shampooing....flaxseed seed hydrated your hair and works as a leave in and mustard oil helps with too much frize but if you haven't used mustard oil do patch test since it can be too heavy...if it suits you that's good but if it doesn't try other one's that goes with your hair type...hope it has helped you
Hi , I did the flaxseed mask and oil mask , I did not have mustard oil , but I did a mask with black seed oil and avocado oil my hair fells so soft and it’s so shiny, thanks for your reply I really appreciated.
@@Maracz47 You are welcome...stay safe and happy☺️
I would like to ask you if its possible to mix genna and curd for glossing? Or os it too much protein
The biggest mistake most people make with henna is they allow it to dry on their hair. Please don’t let it dry as it will dry your hair out. Make sure to cover your hair with glad wrap or a shower cap to lock the moisture and keeping the henna from drying out. Don’t leave it for more than 4 hours. If you follow that your hair will only benefit from henna.
I did one henna gloss a few weeks ago, used glass wrap for maybe an hour and my hair is still hard and dry. I’m so disappointed and frustrated.
T Michelle hey there, this website explains why your hair may feel dry after henna but isn’t necessarily dry but try to add 2 vitamin E capsule to your mixture next time. www.ancientsunrise.blog/full-coverage-hair-feels-dry/
I had recently dyed my hair with henna and let me tell you before I didn't use any other dyes on my hair it was all natural. Anyways before I dyed my hair and follow the henna instruction and left it for 4 hour straight, In between the time I was waiting for the time to pass I started to have a itching reaction and didn't payed much attention so anyways when the time came too for me to wash it off some hair strands came off while washing and didn't payed much attention again cause hair falls it's natural. So anyways the next day and the others days that have past I have notice changes my hair started to fall off from the hair root and a lot I'm alarm and am feeling panicked with anxiety cause its falling off when I shower or when I'm not even showering or when combed my hair or just by running my finger through it their be strand of hair falling someone please help I really love my hair and I want to reversed the damaged it has caused or at least try before it all falls off and start looking like smeagol from lord of the rings 😭😭😭😭😭
Yeah people leave it in for too long. 4 hours should be the max.
@@suzysmiles5443 What brand? Was it 100% BAQ henna? Were other herbs mixed in? What did you add to it besides water (if anything)?
If you guys notice the Indian women do heavy hair oiling treatments regularly. This is how they avoid dried out henna hair and pretty much what you suggest. Hot oil treatments after henna are highly recommended.
You have a very therapeutic voice. Thanks for the advice. I’m trying to be consistent with henna, once a month. I’ve switched products too which has helped my hair last longer too. I did have a point in my life (several years ago) when henna really dried my hair out. Adding some slip (conditioner and oils) prevented the henna from drying out my hair.
Good video.
My low porosity hair was thinning, dry and not curling when using henna every 4-6 weeks, and this year I reduced applications to 4X/year and experienced an improvement in the overall condition of my hair.
The way you talk will make me believe anything you say... So soothing
ASMR
😂
Your a 🤡 jelena
Wow, real henna cons with positive steps to get through them. I watch Curly Proverbs and Henna Sooq channels, so i never encounter this problem with henna. But, i'm glad i youtube brought up your video.
I never have dry hair after henna. Henna make my hair so good. I had chemical damage and henna is only the think that works for me. I like your videos new think to learn.
I always add olive oil into my henna and the liquid I use in my henna is aloe very juice. I'm create small balls of that then freeze them.in individual bags. When I do a henna gloss, I defrost a henna ball and leave it at room temp... Once its totally soft and room temp, I add it to a coditioner, mix it and apply..... Suuuuuper moisturized hair, strong, and beautiful orange coverage on my greys.. Try that
What a great idea! Very creative! 🌺💛🌞
If you’re not using henna for the colour, then look into using cassia. Basically it’s like henna but without the drying side effect. As for henna use, i follow curly proverbz and henna sooq (who sells aryuvedic products) for tips and tricks on how to use henna and not have the brittle hair afterwards. The common additives they use are always marshmallow root and aloe vera in either juice, powder, or natural form.
Curly Proverbs now sells henna.
I used cassia still becarful because I had to big pieces brake off
These were the two ladies that convinced me to use henna in the first place. It worked for them but for me… it killed my volume all together and has made my hair very stiff. I never needed Henna and I terribly regret falling into this for my hair. :0/. I pray over time, my hair returns back to normal.
I really appreciate this video. I have not come across another UA-camr who discusses how to recover from Henna dryness, etc. God bless you for sharing.
can you send me that link of the recovery video? Thanks!
Great video, excellent points! New subbie here 😁
The reason olive oil feels like it needs a "treatment and a half" is because it's not as fatty as avocado oil, therefore feels like it gives a more lightweight effect than avocado oil. These are the two oils that also work best on my hair, and they work EXACTLY as you described - combine the two and BOOM!!!
You've given me a great idea; next time I henna I will:
mix conditioner with hot olive and avocado oils, apply generously to hair;
put on plastic cap for about 4 hours *then remove* - this will steam the treatment into the hair;
put on woolly cap or cotton scarf, leave on at least 6+ hours - this will absorb treatment into hair;
wash after 6+ hours or next day with sulfate-free shampoo - to remove excess oil;
finish with regular conditioner.
Henna leaves the hair fantastically shiny, full and gorgeous immediately after use but it does wear off and the dryness WILL creep up on you in time if you aren't 100% on point with your moisture levels, especially between treatments.
You always have great information! Thank you! ❤️
Love the video, informative - I subscribed immediately and look forward to future videos - tho I’m 4c, info is very helpful to have, thank you 😊👍🏿
Your voice, is like liquid gold, soothing....
Thank you sharing! It helped me immensely! All the best! Gorgeous hair, BTW! ❤❤❤
Another great video! Thank you
New subscriber! I've been having this issue too after henna glosses I will definitely give this a go! 😊
I really love your patient demeanor.. it is such a pleasure to meet you. I feel we could be friends in real life
I used Henna month ago, now dropping slowly all my hair off from the root. I am so happy. Need to wear a cap maybe next 3-5 months. Never again any kind of hair coloring for me.
Hi ! When my curls feels less defined because of henna. I use rhassoul and it defines my curls so so good. The best thing is to use henna once a month with honey some oil etcc and to do a rhassoul mask or clay mask before the henna. It avoids all the over coats that henna can make.
Love your Channel 😘❤
Thank you so very much! Lord knows I needed this, I feel so horrible and helpless, but this gives me hope, I'm going to pray and try this
Thank you my hair is suffering from severe henna dryness. I really like henna too. Thank you for the tips.
I experienced the same, and I also found recovery with avocado oil and black castor oil w/Rosemary. Best to all who's experiencing hair loss after Henna. I was sad at first because I had just gotten my hair to a great place (health and length) and wanted to use henna on my grey rather than dye... but thankful for incorporating the basics before things got worse... getting ahead of it, is most important.
So has your hair completely recovered for Henna? I only did 2 treatments and my hair is still suffering 8 months later. I did coconut oil treatments but then got lazy and stoped. My volume hasn’t completely returned back but my volume is for sure coming back. Which makes sense with every wash, the henna is still falling out.
Wow! Thank you ! I hope this helps me. Thanks again for being the only one addressing this.
😊🥰
You are very welcome!
Great tip!!
Thank you so much for this!! I regret using henna on my hair! It is so dry and awful. I will try the olive oil
God bless you for this video!!! I love henna.
Thank you very much for your advice regarding henna. I was experience my hair being dry and brittle and I took what you said in your video and it help me out my hair stop being brittle and dry. Thank you very much I really appreciate you so much. Youi also said don't use the fenugreek I was just going to use it . Your advice help stop the brittle and dryness of my hair.
Very helpful, I have the same problem, I am going to try this.
This is so very helpful . Henna can be brilliant and yet, precarious. I really appreciate this information. I just overdid my henna tonight and have the mild straw effect. I will try the avocado and olive! Thank you.
Omg yessssss thank YOU!!!
HEAR ME OUT PLEASE!
Johnson's baby shampoo the orange one helps soooo much it made my hair soooo soft it's paraben free, Trust me! I had my hair ruined bc of henna this literally saved my life🥺
wow… tell me more… henna ruined my hair too but I don’t use shampoo anymore. It’s too harsh for my curls thanks!
Great vid and info. After noticing some dryness on my maiden voyage with henna, I applied my homemade castor & beeswax pomade (including olive oil) with much success. I like the castor & beeswax since they are 'waxy' oils which protect and coat without removing the dye. Thanks again.
Omg thanks....I needed this
Thank u so much for telling me how to rectore my danage hair god bless u🌹
Thank you for sharing this, my hair has broken off from henna dryness. It still feels very brittle. I'm so happy I found this video
I hope this helps! Best of luck!
My hair feels HORRIBLE! I finally figured it has to be the Henna. I only used it on new growth to cover grays (only the first couple of times I did the full head...) I only used it sparingly, like every 3-4 months! My hair is so so DRY even when I just use protein free products. I can’t get moisture to penetrate my hair shaft! I so so hope I can get my hair back to how it used to be!!! 😢
What brand henna did you use? Was it body art quality?
Hi, how did everything go?
I use henna from henna sooq. The trick for me is to use aloe vera powder with using henna, which helps combat dryness. No more issues. My hair is doing great! 😊
Your aloe vera plant is so huge. Every time my plant grows even a little I get the urge to cute it and apply to my hair or my sick.
Wowww.
I was getting mad due to itchy scalp and my coconut oil had finished.
So..I just went in kitchen and tried olive oil on my scalp and wrapped hot towel.
Really it worked like magic.
I was not knowing tht olive oil can use.but now my best hair treatment is using olive oil.
Thank you for speaking on this topic. I was one of those people who got caught up in the hype of coconut oil, and found my hair does not like it at all, which makes sense because I don't digest it well either...I too went back to using olive oil and my hair loves it! I have never tried Avocado oil on the hair but I'm willing to try it. I also use henna but I tend to use pre made henna color. Would I still need to deep condition after using henna hair color?
😁a much better video, thank you for sharing this😉
I suffered from henna damage a couple of years ago and realized much later that my lack of knowledge on maintaining henna actually caused the breakage. Thanks so much for this and all of your videos on how to maintain henna because I do love using henna.
How did you master using Henna? I would like to try Henna and Indigo again (once my emotional scars have healed). Any specific tips would be greatly appreciated. Also which line did you use? I am seeking Black hair with no dryness and no loss of curl pattern. My hair post Henna looks like blood orange so its scarves and hats for the foreseeable.
This is my situation . I wasn't mixing it correctly and leaving it on too long and using it too often . I've had to cut 2-3 inches off because of damage.
I found you in holistichabits comments :). Thank you so much for all your videos! They are very informative. My hair is very dry and damaged after henna but I love the color so much that i refuse to stop using it. I’ve never really paid attention to moisturizing my hair after henna because I didn’t think it was necessary. I always read just benefits of hennaing. I wish I had known better because my hair is shedding like crazy, very dry, and just yuck. Again, thanks so much for your videos. I’m hoping to bring my hair back to health.
It’s my pleasure!! I really hope my tips help you out!
Thank you boo😘
Henna has given me a major set back . My hair is overprocessed ! Dull , dry and brittle and breaking . I've got single strandknots, split ends, etc. . My hair is so weak it cannot even take heat. It just dries it out more . I've Discontinued henna 3 months a go but I'm still dealing with the after damage . I've gotten a cut but hair still feels rough to the touch . I'm so disappointed. Don't think I will ever use it again .
I ve seen this video a month ago and i came back to thank you. It saved my hair.It is is much much softer and more hydrated than before.thx again 😘❤️
Of course! I’m so glad I could help!! Henna dryness is such a scary thing I’m happy things worked out!
@@VyalaBloom i also added aloe vera gel recently.i m happy with the result :)
EYA MSALLMI I just added aloe Vera a few weeks ago and I haven’t seen great results yet, but I’m gonna keep with it. I think I really screwed myself with the henna.
@@gwenn4ya i use organic alo directly from the plant with olive oil avocado oil almond oil,vitamine E as a hair mask .i keep using henna once a month and i ad SoME Alo to my henna mix too ,i ve seen great results , hope it helps :)
Thanks for this video. I have damaged my hair sooo much with henna. I feel so frustrated and hopeless. I thought I was going to have to cut my hair off. As a black naturalista I am desperate. I will try these methods. Fingers crossed.
Thank you so much for sharing my first time using henna in my hair. It is so dry and has shrinkage. It is also very staw like and dull, so I really appreciate your great advice. You have been so helpful. Thanks again again
Thank you SO much 🙏🏽🌸
I had the same sad experience as you and it is wonderful that you take time to this I belive common problem.
Henna is amazing if used right. I learned the hard way to.
Very intresting you talked about the olive oil! I didn’t know… My bathroom is filled up with every expensive oil there is to get.
My hair is all good this times but I will try olive oil if my hair gets dry again. Thank you!
Thanks. This is very helpful ❤
I'm so glad!
Thank you for sheering, i go do my hair with olive oil, greetings Mirabella from Egypt
My hair seemed fine.
Then after a few days, I felt like more strands were falling out too often. Now I'm sad. I'm going to try your method as I have tried to get a hold of a hairdresser and a friend who is one, but no luck. I feel horrible.
I have been trying to grow my hair for years, and now I'm just depressed.
I had to stop using henna , my hair breaks off all over. No matter what I did the dryness after henna seriously damaged my hair. And just when it would bounce back it was time to do my roots, it was a horrible cycle. My hair is super healthy without henna and responds well to chemical dyes without damage but henna frys my hair everytime . I've tired to apply it so many different ways and it's the same result each time.
Henna is not regulated. Natural henna conditions hair. However, some exporters sell henna adulterated with heavy metals or other toxins. This happens so often that hairdressers think henna is completely toxic. However, Ancient Sunrise henna lab tests its henna to ensure it is free of contaminants. When I use their brand, my hair is like silk. Big difference.
I don't even know what to say to you. Your all like a broken record, spouting the sane stuff all over again. Everything I used was body quality henna. And those ancient sunrise people would have fried my hair with their acids. I had to go back to box hair dye and guess what ? My hair was better immediately. I was told the same bullshit story that my hair didn't like protein. Guess what? I did a keratin treatment and my hair has never been better, it stopped breaking and falling out. Henna was the worst for my hair and you henna groupies need to back off and understand that not all of us have your experience. Period.
@@auntieh07 I used the brand they mentioned and my hair is completely fried. It was nice and smooth before. I am going to use a chemical dye on it soon so hopefully it smooths out. I got my hair cut today and had the worst experience of my life. The hairstylist was ripping my hair out combing it and then the hair immediately tangled. My hair was never like that even after bleaching it.
@@Smilesremember2Smile I know. I had to start doing keratin treatments it basically saved my hair and healed the damage from the henna. I use herbatint for hair dye now, I will never use henna again. My hair is 100 percent better thanks to the keratin and has mostly grown out now. Never again.
Do you feel your hair has returned back to normal or has henna left an affect ?!?
Thank you for helping out. Your advice was spot on. I don't have curly hair but was using henna too often and it left my hair so dry. I too found coconut oil not to work....but olive oil was excellent. Thank you!
You are welcome!
Beautiful!!! Looks like you are from Ethiopia.
After henna mask I use aloe Vera plant massage roots to tip and leave in moisturizer my hair felt so soft the next day..the best henna is one that is use for body paint..I actually did 2step with indigo my greys didn’t turn black but it’s ok I jus mainly want the benefits of henna I wear wigs for protective styling..O an I never wash aloe Vera out of my hair I have bra strap length..moisture moisture after henna
I am so glad that I came across your video. I started noticing at the crown of my head my hair started breaking and looking really frizzy , I also noticed my edges were getting thin but I didn’t think it was the henna . I realized I may have been applying it more than normal also and then I really started to notice the breakage . I am definitely going to put the avocado oil in my deep conditioner and apply to my hair on my next wash day. Thank you so much for this video it was so informative and u gave me a lot of insight. I so appreciate it 🙏🏾🙏🏾
You are welcome! Good luck!
Yes and yes I’ve experienced mad breakage. Nothing is helping. Maybe I was using too strong of henna treatments as well. I couldn’t quite pinpoint where it took place and I didn’t want to believe it was the henna since everyone always says how beneficial it is. I was gonna revert to cutting it all off and starting again. I did cut back on shampooing because I used to do every week and I’ve decided now to do once a month. I also added a mix of aloe Vera and water to a spray bottle and follow up with a moisturizer and oil. Thank you for your tips and advice.
It's crazy because I received growth with henna but if you misuse it and don't mix it well it can give you a major set back . Smh I'm so disappointed.
Thank You Because I Became Hopeless😘
OMG thank u soooo muchh❤️❤️❤️
Henna brakes my before? And I had the nerve to use this monster again. Now? I learned my lesson very well.
These issues happened to me also. Thank you very much for your tips . You are a pleasant and a beautiful person🙏❤️🙏🧚♀️✨✨✨
Any updates?? I am also a victim of Henna.
Hi, I'm new to ur channel. Thanks for the tips. Henna was making my hair dry so I stopped using it for a bit. I've recently started back but I'm spacing out the time when I use it, so like 1x every 2 months. But I will try the henna gloss. Thanks again for sharing, you are right no one is really addressing this issue💖😎
I'm so happy that I found your video. I have been struggling to recover from a henna application. My two strand twist are so thin and my hair is frizzy and cob-webby. I have tried so much and that includes all of the no-no oils. I have been tempted to do another big chop. I used to use Lush's Henna blocks and my hair loved it. Full, thick and long it was so healthy. After a very long break of 3 years I started using the Lush product again and my hair was dry and crunchy. I then tried the Henna Sooq and now I have straw. I am giving myself a break from the henna. Thanks for the information and I'm going to try a simpler routine for recovery.
I know the pain that is such a bummer! Definitely try out some olive oil before doing a big chop and see how it works for you! It truly saved my hair and I never go without it anymore. Best of luck Stephanie, I’m sorry you’re going through that...
Vegetable glycerine make my hair really soft.
Just stumbled on this clip today - three years later and one week after using henna and indigo first time ever for both to cover my stubborn greys! Unfortunately I added black henna to the regular henna and the results on my hair is horrendous! I will use henna again but never the other black henna because they have chemicals in them which I was trying to get away from!
Olive oil has made my dry 4C tresses very soft in the past so this is a massive thank you for this reminder! ThanX for sharing Vyala B. The MOST HIGH MAJESTY has Blessed you with a gorgeous crown of glory.
you are very welcome! so happy you stopped using black henna. That stuff is no joke.
When is the right time to shampoo after a henna treatment. And what’s a good shampoo you would recommend? Thank You.
I ah w thin hair from age but I had your texture hair when younger. Hair goals! Although I am realistic and really just want healthy hair. I have been using henna for a year or so, for strengthening and taking out gray. It didn’t color very well so I stopped then came back this year. I am now experiencing what you are saying here. I must say I also flat ironed which I should not have. I made so much progress even so with length and strength now it is awful. Split ends and all. Very dry. I am trying what you are suggesting here. I need help!! Very scary. Love your channel.
Keep us updated! I'm so sorry that's happening to you. Best of luck!
I love that your videos aren’t too long and you don’t say “hey guys” 💞
Ikr😂
I waa looking for this type of video because henna broke my hair off while some people were getting better results with it. Because I started getting grey hairs creeping on me, I want to try henna to cover my grey hair but i am worried. Thanks for the video.
So do you not recommend your recipe of henna with the coconut cream or is that different from the milk and oil of coconut?
I was using henna for few months and want to go bk to box colours any suggestions I am using leave in conditioner at the moment any other suggestions i will definitely try the avocado oil thanks
Always mix henna with aloe vera powder 🎯.
Yup
I did, but it still dried my hair afterwards. I used the Henna Sooq brand also. Henna just isn't for everyone.
@@Lambielight53 I hear you. Have you tried adding a _moisturizing_ conditioner? To the mix.
Very scary for me to read all these comments. I am doing my research & there is know cut & dry way to use this henna. To the lay person like myself trying to figure this all out is quite an undertaking. You really have to know what your doing. After 40 years of relaxers & 10 months of being fully natural my hair is finally starting to grow & learning .my hair. I have the nupur 💯 henna & 9 herbs & I'm scared to use it. The package says use warm water & oil. Why are people using so many other mixtures? Some using coconut milk, cream, acv, lemon juice. Who knows what everybody is doing & how often to cause such dryness. I see why there are problems. If used improperly it will cause damage. Glad I'm doing my research...thank you all for sharing!!!!
Yes just keep it simple. People are doing WAY too much then blame it on the henna. It's usually 3 things.
1)They used bad quality henna
2)Mixing in things that make the dryness worse. You have to remember that whatever else you mix in is going to sit on your hair for 3-4 hours as well.
3)Doing treatments way too often
I only do henna, bit of aloe vera powder, and warm water.
@@cfoster6804 Yes, keep it simple. That is exactly what I'm going to do. I think I'm going to leave this alone for now & instead going to incorporate herbal warm oil treatments in my pre-poo/detangle process...no worries this way. Need that moisture!!!! Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts 🌹
Keep it simple and allow for dye release...do a search on henna dye release. Some great information comes up about why keeping it simple is best
the glycerin if we use it as a leave in, do we mix it with water, or just by itself? Thank you!!
New subbie💝
I understand the coconut makes it seemingly worse. I understand why you insist upon olive and avocado.
What would you feel about pumpkin seed or hemp seed or flax seed oils as far as repairing the protein moisture imbalance? Organic and cold pressed of course.
The reason I ask is because I want to leave trace amounts of this oil in my hair daily and the smell of the avocado and oil are strong and the seed oils a little less fragrant
Thanks for the video. I mixed my henna with oils and after washing I oiled my hair because I was worried about dryness but nothing.my hair Is shedding super dry and tangles easily.i have tried different oils like you did but nothing and I ve never thought about olive oil so thanks again I ll give it a try
The trick is to use the RIGHT oils. (FATTY OILS ARE BEST). Add olive oil TO your henna mix, aloe juice, and a small cap full of acv. 🌻
My hair has been shedding and it matting since I applied what I thought was an all natural 100% organic henna/indigo mix. After reading about how your hair starting shedding and tangled easily, I desperately wanted to know if it stopped. I am in panic mode. I have NEVER in all of my life had my hair get matted. If your shedding stopped, were there any remedies/suggestions that helped?
Thanks for your video I got bald area using organic henna
I’m sorry to hear that :(
Any update on the de transitioning from Henna? I’m on the SAME BOAT! Henna not only made my hair stiff and dry but it also pressed out my curls! And this is what they don’t tell you…. henna also minimized my volume!!!!!!!!! SO UPSET! I had natural vivacious volume that has significantly minimized and it’s like I have someone else’s hair that is very very fine with barely any volume. :0/. I’ve already checked out the before and after of my curly hair journey and I couldn’t be more upset. So I’ve opted out of experimenting products like these all together. The Ayurvedic route isn’t for everyone. They say do Amla treatments to get the curls back… but I’m just like… I don’t feel like experimenting anymore with herbs. Anyone have any other tips to get henna out completely?????? I want my volume and curls back. Hope your journey is better now. ❤
Mixing henna with conditioner is not a good idea. That caused a tangle in my hair. I would only mix henna with water, oil, coconut milk, or milk. It can have a bad reaction with conditioner.
How much time it will take to recover? My hair went from wavy to super frizzy 😢. It’s been 3 weeks since I applied henna.
Was your hair dry from root to tip?
Yes henna u need confitioner snd oils and during application need to keep it damp and not dry the mask out and when u apply it damp hair is best.
I started using henna & indigo a little over a year ago. I experienced what you described and also for the first time in my life it hurt to put my hair in a ponytail, braid, bun 😞
I suspect that the reason involves using the henna/indigo too often. Just wondering if you or anyone else experienced the scalp sensitivity and if there are any tips on addressing it?
This was very help because I wasn’t aware the using henna and a protein treatment can over load my hair and cause it to be dry and split ends are next whenever I use these two in the same week.I’ve learned my lesson😉👌because keep the information coming it’s a blessing when you don’t know to do thanks for being out these for US! Your very professional 💕 7:35 7:35 7:35
People with dry hair should mix yoghurt with henna.
Okay that’s my problem so I need to cowash
❤️❤️❤️❤️ you dear
I had hydro fatigue and I started using henna. But I advice people to use very little of it at once and leave on for 5 hours. This is my mix : 1 tbsp henna+ 2 tbsp Coco powder+ 2 tbsp coconut milk + 1 tsp instant coffee + 2 tbsp kefir + 1tbsp honey.
Just avoid using henna alone with water. And plenty of it. If you already integrate it, the concentration of it in the mask should be low.
Great video! Thank you so much!! I have not seen any videos either that talks about how to treat your henna-damaged hair. I've been using henna for years now and my hair has been getting worse and worse, more dry, unable to maintain moisture despite trying everything, brittle, very thin at the ends, but yet is still grew! I was so confused. The only thing that I could think of that was possibly causing these issues was henna. I only used henna twice a year in order to dye my hair black. That might explain why some of my broken hair in different areas grew! Also, I did not put henna on my hair all over my head. That explains why my hair stayed long and thick in some areas. Thank you so much for your tips to help bring our hair back to normal!!!
I have dry nd damage hair... Split end cause very easily... What to do dear... Love from India🇮🇳
Is your hair high or low porosity ?
What about people who are new to henna? Can they just add these ing to their henna mix in order for the hair to not get brittle or damaged?
Yes you can! You won’t get as vibrant color deposit but the treatment will still be very conditioning
wait a second....im about to try henna because my research on YT gave the info that it fills in the gaps in damaged hair. . and makes it stronger healthier.... and then i read all these comments
im really confused now if i should try it. i dont have greys in my hair just bought henna in hopes of makin my hair stronger.... please advise😅😅😅😅❤
Sorry I'm late. But don't do henna, I repeat don't do it if you have low porosity hair or protein sensitive in any way. If you don't know your porosity don't do it. I did it and did not realize it is or a acts like a protein and I had immediate tangling and dryness. Watching this
I had this same issue, only it was from using too much protein and not from using henna. This truly saved me from just whacking off my hair! Even though It set me back in obtaining length goals, I am so glad that this young lady posted this video. If I ever have that issue again I will certainly use this same regimen. Thank you!
Henna broke my hair off so bad I will never use it again
But some oil after using Henna to prevent any breakage and it wouldn’t broke at all
Me too! And nothing I used after stopped it not for weeks and I oil my hair daily. Never again.
Make sure you're using the right henna and next time try a little first like a tablespoon of it added to your deep conditioner. Some people hair needs to get use to henna so you have to start off slow and then work your way up to maybe a full mask. I personally only add to my Ayurvedic oil mixture and to my deep conditioner. I don't like it for a mask.

@@anderiafrank4116 Girl, folks don't do their research. I read some people saying they bought henna from the Asian beauty supply store.🤦🏾♀️ Then post their hair fell out.
Why are people leaving it in for 4 hours? The one I use says 30 min to an hour…
Which henna do you use? Helpful to know. I haven’t come across one that colours white/grey hair that quickly!
Henna cause a lot of thinning, still recovering
I just recently started experiencing a lot of shedding after using henna. After reading your comment about how your hair started thinning but you were recovering, I was curious to know if it stopped. I am in panic mode. If it did stop, were there any remedies/suggestions that helped?
How often can henna be used, before it dries hair out ?
I was one and done.
Different for each head of hair. Definitely no more than every 6 weeks but once a quarter is probably best.
The biggest mistake I see newbies make to using henna is overuse and not properly adding moisture back in.
1. This is a permanent dye. It is not like box dye which bleeds color every time you wash. Instead it chemically bonds to the keratin within the hair strand and stays put. Once I dyed all of my hair the first time any application was *only to my roots!*
2. Two weeks after applying and allowing oxidation I then applied a deep leave in conditioner for 1 hour then rinsed.
3. Dryness and breaking can occur if you use henna too often. I usually wait two months before retouching my roots.
4. Do not wash your hair as often, let your natural oils from the scalp replenish that hair! Brushing your hair multiple times a day helps pull those natural body oils down the hair shaft from your scalp.
Hope these little tips can help your viewers. I have been using henna for 7 years and have learned henna is a lot like learning how to bake. It takes time to learn how the feel of the dough changes during glutton process, kneading, proofing and baking. It takes time to work out the kinks.
Henna is great as a permanent dye but I do not suggest it for people who like to go light with bleach in the summer then go darker in the winter. It doesn't lift easily from the hair. Instead I recommend it to people if they want a natural red hair look that remains consistent between applications.
