jengrady said:. For henna, no juice, no berries, no sprinkles, no glitter, no wearing it for a day and then washing it out.
There's no chemicals in this stuff, there's no drama, its just herbs...

Here's this one.
I have some questions for all the henna lovers.
Does it stain the sink or counter?
Does it dye your scalp/neck/face around hairline?
do you rinse out in shower or sink?![]()

HoneyDew said:Okay, I didn ot realize that some people leave it on for hours and hours. Maybe I never get dryness because I use it for only 30-40 min tops (20-30 min of that under the dryer).

My recipe for my neck length hair is:
2 tbs Jamila henna
1tbs indigo
1tbs alma powder
1tbs evoo
1tbs of moisturizing conditioner (lustrasilk mango shea butter cholesterol or Elasta QP DPR11)
1/2 tbs of jojoba oil
1/2 tbs of honey
1/4 cup of warm water
All of the things I add are very moisturizing which I'm sure prevents the dryness that some have experienced.
If you try again, I hope you like my recipe. I rinse out in the shower and add a little bit of NTM as a final rinse and my hair feels sooooo good.
Good luck lady!

I deep conditioned 4x since then and my hair seems to be back to normal I used lemon juice, too, per the instructions from women the woman that I talked on the phone to at Mehendi.com. I may try it again without the lemon juice, BUT, I lost alot of hair and I am kinda scurrrd!! My hair was matted together badly.
