i love this!!!
to everyone who recommended it! sorry this is so long, but here's the low down on what i did:
i bought this a couple of weeks ago but didn't really have the time to put it in. plus i was a little worried because it melted some in the car while i ran errands. so it's been sitting in the bag in the fridge for the past 2wks. i decided to do it last night while i was up cleaning. i used about 2 squares, not 100% sure cuz it was all kinda melted together in a weird rectangular shape. i started grating it, but it was kinda melting a little on my hands, plus it was taking forever so i gave that up. i put the rest of the block i was grating in a plastic bag & pounded it with a hammer until i had small chunks & the bag was about to bust. i put the hammered chunks & the lil bit that i had grated in a pyrex dish,added about 1/2 teaspoon of salt, & microwaved a 16oz cup of water for about 2.5min. i poured about 1/2 the water in, but i think it was still too much cuz after mixing all the lumps out with a fork, the consistency was thinner than the yogurt one i was aiming for. i covered the dish with some aluminum foil & put it in the fridge for about an hour. i saw online where someone thought that made it thicken up & the indigo release better. idk if it's true but i also didn't want to put it on my head warm, & the consistency was the same when i got ready to use it
erplexed.
i then applied it to my hair in the kitchen since i didn't want it to get all over the bathrooms i had just cleaned. i pretty much just glopped it on, making sure to rub it into my scalp good so the roots would get good coverage. i piled my hair on top of my head in a molded conehead fashion, uncovered & went about cleaning. idk if it was the caca noir, a delayed buzz from happy hour, or the fact that it was about 2am, but i got really sleepy all of a sudden. i chilled on the sofa for a bit listening to music cuz it wasn't dry enough for me to feel comfortable laying down. i actually drifted off for about 15min. flash forward to 3:30, i'm done for the night so throw an old towel over my pillow & call it a night
i woke up about 7:30 & rinsed it out in the kitchen using the vegetable sprayer & semi hot water. i'd say about 10min of rinsing. then i used suave coconut condish to cowash it about 3times to get out all the residue. i only say about 5 shed hairs which for me is like a miracle from God cuz i shed like a chemo patient on the regular, always have & thought i always would. the coverage seemed pretty even & it was definitely darker than my normal color. i threw a turbie towel on & did some stuff online for about 15min. when i took off the turbie, i had soft black, fluffy, soft curls!. i think it may have relaxed my curls a tad too. but my hair was nicely black, not harsh like some dyes or rinses can make you look, but really natural black. & even tho my hair was naked & semi dry, it felt really soft. i applied silicon mix condish, saran wrapped my head & put the turbie towel back on. i might do a lil dryer/heating cap action before rinsing depending on how i feel
my hair is type 3something & natural. it's fine & thin, & is about bra strap length stretched & just touches my shoulders when i wear it curly. natural color is a dark brown/light black with just a slight shade lighter brown in the front. i have henna'd before about a year or 2 ago, but never hendigo'd my hair. so far, me likey alot!
So I will leave a review then in Relaxed and Using Henna Thread
