Henna + Hibiscus + Cocoa Butter = moisture rich hair recipe. Mix your henna and hibiscus petal powder together in a bowl. Equal proportions of each or as desired. In another bowl over low heat slowly melt your cocoa butter wafers until fully melted. Allow to cool and then pour into your powder mix. Mix well until consistency of a thick yoghurt. You can add water, coconut milk or more cocoa butter if your mix is too dry. Apply onto your hair by sections. I’ve always found that doing four sections work the best. I usually start at the front and work towards the back. Once completed, wrap your hair and allow to stay in your hair 1-2 hours. Rinse out, dry and style as usual. Gorgeous moisture rich hair perfect for your new Fall/Winter regimen. We recommend this hair conditioning treatment be repeated every 2-3...

Men! Henna isn’t just for girls. You’ll find no discrimination here. Use henna to stay looking young and sexy. Color your beard with henna (and get a menna aka henna body art for men). Henna and indigo colored Jamal’s beard perfectly. I used a blended recipe of 50% of each henna and indigo. We wrapped his beard with a bandana which ensures all of the henna stays on and won’t drip. We then left the henna mixture on his beard for 3-4 hours. Other then coloring the hair, henna really strengthens, thickens and adds a lot of shine to the hair. This will also last at least 3-4 weeks. The time it lasts is a bit shorter because I’ve found that since the hair is short that the new growth is more noticeable quicker. You can also do touch ups as needed. Should dryness be an issue for your hair do make sure to add our organic aloe vera powder to your recipe. You can watch our full video below. Love our products?

Do you consider yourself a long time henna user? Did you come across some great henna recipes on the internet that you really would love to try? Will this be your first time using henna? If you answered yes to any of those questions then this article is for you. There have been times when clients have come to us and told us that their henna didn’t work for them. They were very disappointed as the color didn’t come out as they expected and it barely stained when they did the skin patch test. The deal on dye release: Testing your henna paste for a more effective stain We can’t stress just how important it is to follow the exact instructions on the package of your product (or online at www.HennaSooq.com under the instruction and video tabs of each product’s page). There are a lot of blogs and YouTube channels that have hundreds of recommendations on how they use henna products and often you may be tempted to use the products exactly as they did. Perhaps you’ve been doing henna for so many years that you mix it exactly the same way you always have and it always came out perfectly. Times have changed. Not all henna powders (or brands) are created equally. You can try out recipes and tips from bloggers and vloggers but you will have to make sure you blend their methods with the instructions that are for the henna powder you’re using. The instructions provided by Henna Sooq are very comprehensive and detailed. We set you up for success with henna. We ask everyone to...
