Crunchy, drying and hair breakage. Have you heard those words being said about henna natural hair color?
Your natural henna hair coloring treatment should not be drying your hair out. Your hair should be left feeling healthy, conditioned and full of gorgeous shine along with a beautiful color.
Moisture is Key
When mixing your henna for hair recipe and especially if you have dry hair, add our organic aloe vera powder or hair oils to your mix. Most of our clients prefer adding the organic aloe vera powder as that gave them the best results. Keeping the process very simple you just add up to 5% of organic aloe vera powder to your recipe or 1-2 tbsp of hair oils to 100 grams of powders used.
