Okay, so I put henna in my hair for the first time, like 3wks ago...and I love it! My highlights "pop" more and my hair looks really pretty in the sun! It also feels a lot more stronger...expect with ALL the shedding....like clumps!!! God forbid I finger comb or lightly tug...STRANDS of hair just fall out!!! And I honestly can't tell if it's the henna or just the freezing cold weather in SoCal. erplexed
Also, "flakes" of henna show up everywhere...imagine if you put brown gel in your hair, then lay down....all the brown flakes....that's how my hair is now!! Except I don't use gel...I use glaze. I haven't flat-ironed my hair since I used henna...only airdrying and protective buns...but god forbid I have a white shirt on!!!! UGH. And the other day I was sitting on my friends off-white couch, put my head back for a second and saw alllll the flakes!!!! As soon as he left the room, I jumped up and started to "sweep" off the flakes frantically!! Oh and it seems like some of the "dye" comes out my hair too!!!
So can I do anything about the "flakes" and dye?? And is increased sheeding normal with Henna or is it the weather???
