100 Grams - 100% Pure Henna Powder For Hair Dye - Red Henna Hair Color, Best Red Henna For Hair - The Henna Guys

Amazing, rich color that lasts. I've received so many compliments and folks are surprised that it's henna! I've found mixing with coffee brings out more brown and adding a small amount of apple cider vinegar really helps cover greys. It also makes my hair shine and reduces frizz. It does have a funky odor because its all natural, but really not enough to put me off. Definitely recommend

I bought the henna together with Indigo, after reading around that I would need both to achieve the color of my dark brown hair. I primarily needed both to cover my gray, but since this was my first time using Henna, I did an all-over application just to see how it came up. I mixed all 200g gram of them, and with my chin length hair, I had a lot of leftover. Note to self: next time use 1/2 a packet instead. Luckily you can freeze leftover henna in the freezer so I ziplocked the leftover henna mix and stuffed it in the freezer. The good news is, since the leftover is already mixed, I don't have to wait for the dye to release next time. Anyway, so I mixed the henna with fresh squeezed lime juice and water. The lime juice provides the acidity that henna needs to release its dye (so I've read). You can probably use bottle lime juice, I happened to have some limes in the fridge so I used those instead. I made a mistake of making the mix too runny - like a thin yogurt consistency - and didn't realize the mistake until later. After mixing the henna in a bowl, I covered it with saran wrap and left it on my bathroom counter for almost 24 hours to allow the dye to release. When I opened the bowl 24 hrs later, I could see the reddish dye floating around in the surface, which I quickly mixed in. Then I started applying the mix to my hair, starting from the back to the front. You will need gloves and 2 old towels, one to wipe and the other to cover your hair with later. Once my hair was fully covered with henna, I covered it with saran wrap and then put my shower cap on top. Remember what I said about mixing it too runny? This is the part where things go tricky. Originally, I planned to sleep with the henna on my hair overnight, as has been suggested by many people I read online. But, because I mixed it too thinly, the henna dripped like crazy: at first it was dripping every 5 minutes or so, then as time progressed, I literally had to wipe the drips from my hair continuously every 2-3 seconds or so. I didn't dare go near my bed as I didn't want my bedroom to have henna drips all over. Finally, after wiping non-stop for maybe 70 minutes or so, I decided I had enough. I threw away the saran wrap and jumped into the shower to rinse my hair. I rinsed it first with just warm water, then used conditioner to get rid of the gunk and grits. Then the moment of truth, standing in front of a mirror, I could see a hint of beautiful deep red burgundy highlights on my darker hair, but brash orange on my gray hair, right on top where the hair parted. Yikes!! I knew the chance of this happening was kinda big, given that white hair (my gray is definitely white, not gray) absorbs whatever color you put on them much easily than healthy hair. But it was still a shock to see such orange hair on me. Luckily, I anticipated such happening, that's why I bought Indigo together with Henna, and boy am I glad I did, as I needed that Indigo to correct the orange color from henna. You can read my review on Indigo separately. Bottom line, if you're Asian with dark hair like me, or simply have a lot of white / gray hair to cover, definitely use Henna AND Indigo, either mix them together as a 1-step application, or separately as a 2-step application. I used mine as a 2-step application because I wanted to see how it came out individually. Next time I'll try the 1-step application for experiment. Henna does not lighten my hair, instead, on my healthy hair with natural dark brown color, it gives a nice deep red burgundy coating that is only visible under sun shine. Very subtle and pretty. Also, now that I know that leaving it on for only 70 minutes or so was enough to let the henna color my hair, I don't know if I would leave it on overnight as many have suggested. I think it'll depend on whether I get the mix right. Next time, I would mix it thicker, like mashed potato rather than yogurt consistency. I mixed my indigo on the thick side and it didn't drip at all. One last thing, I read on another review that her hair kept leaking orange days after rinsing. Mine didn't. I washed it very thoroughly, until the water ran clear, and then some more for good measure. I used my old towel to dry my hair immediately after that, then waited for 48 hours before washing it again. On the first wash after that 48 hours, I used my regular towel and didn't see any color leaking on the bathroom floor or the towel. Henna and Indigo are the only two I'll use to cover my gray from now on.

This review is for the Deep Red henna color. I've treated my hair with henna several times before. My first time was with regular henna from The Henna Guys. The color came out extremely pigmented, but pretty orange, since it was pure henna. It wasn't ideal but I didn't care since the condition of my hair improved SO MUCH from just one use. I straighten it often so it was extremely damaged. I broke some comb teeth trying to get rid of the gnarly knots that would always form in the back and at the ends (even after conditioning and oiling it up it took me an hour to do a half assed job). I tried oil treatments and leave in conditioners, but they didn't do much and mostly just made my hair look oily and weighed it down. But after one henna treatment my hair felt amazing, and I knew right away that I'd be using it for a long time. The second time I used henna, I decided to save some money by getting the Godrej mix with 9 herbs. I thought it would be a good deal since you get more of it and there are other plant powders in it that are supposed to be beneficial to hair. I was disappointed to find that it didn't make my hair as soft as the Henna Guys henna did. Also, my hair came out much brassier, less pigmented, and dryer, which was a pretty bad combination. I wasn't very happy, but I kept using it throughout the year. I really wanted to finish what I had left, but I eventually gave in and bought the Deep Red color from the Henna Guys. I had already had a great experience with one of their products, so I hoped I would be equally happy with this purchase. In fact, I was even happier than the first time. I was absolutely blown away by how much it repaired my damaged, dry hair (again), and how VIBRANT the color came out on my dark brown hair! Not only that, but due to the hibiscus powder, it started out looking almost black, but with strong, gorgeous purple and red highlights that bring me compliments even 2 months later. The best I can describe the color is a beautiful black cherry. Don't even get me started on how magnificent it looks when the sunlight is hitting it at the right angle! I honestly can't remember the last time someone had complimented my hair. I couldn't be happier with this henna powder. The only drawback of the Deep Red version is that it bleeds orange for a while, but for me it wasn't that big of a deal. I just use an old towel to dry my hair and it's all good. It's no different than what you have to deal with with a semi-permanent dye. I saw some people giving out low ratings because of this issue, but it's not as bad as they made it out to be. It's 100% worth it for me. After 2 months, there's very minimal orange bleed, and while the color is less deep and less purple, it STILL doesn't look brassy. The purple tones still come out, just not as strongly as before. The color is definitely more red now, and my hair is still looking great. Seriously, this stuff is amazing. I'll try to add some photos soon!

The hair appears so well conditioned, shiny and soft. The henna washes out easily without any bits stuck to the hair. And it covered all grey hairs 100%.
