I love Henna! I mixed the DK Brown (Light Mountain Natural )Henna variety that's sold here>>(http://www.mehndiskinart.com/hair_henna_dye.htmhttp://www.mehndiskinart.com), and mixed it with my Jamila Henna/Conditioner concoction for the first time this month and fell in love. I had a problem rinsing it all out as well. It makes your hair very matty/gritty kinda like dreads, and stuff, BUT NOT to worry. I just applied Lekair Cholesterol Plus and oil to my hair and sat under the dryer for about 20 min and combed that residue out in the shower like butter in a hot skillet. My hair was HEAVY like crazy. Tangle Free, and hair strands were STRONG! 
I LOVE IT!
I now pre-poo with just the Jamila variety for strength not color every other week with just "HALF" the box and V05 moisture milks ($1.00), EVOO, amla oil, honey. You can get the Jamila Henna from most Indian supermarkets for like $3.00 and change. I found some at an indian supermarket like 10 minutes from me. I keep at least 3 boxes at ALL times.

Hi VWVixxen,VWVixxen said:
Could you tell me why Jamila is best. A lot of people seem to rave about it and I can't find it in my area.
I use "Sultana", and it really works very well, better than others I've tried in the past. But I'm just curious about the Jamila, and you seem to be the expert on a lot of thins here at Lhcf.
Thanks,

Has anyone used indigo alone?
Do you only get the shine from henna or from the combination of the two?
