Question 1

I am 51 with light olive skin and dark eyes and dark brown hair. I dont want to go too light. I want a dark rich dark brown with a little red. sugg?

Accepted Answer

I have dark brown hair (fair skin), and it made mine RED. it mellowed over time, but next time I henna, I'm using a blend of henna, cassia and indigo for a warm medium brown tone.

If you want to go down the henna rabbit hole ;) there's a website: tapdancinglizard.com has several free ebooks with all kinds of information on how henna and other natural plant dyes work, how to blend them, and what to expect long term (like how they respond to attempts to lighten them). Very different from commercial dyes, but I will never go back. My hair and scalp are clearly happier with henna!

Question 2

Does it cover the grey?

Accepted Answer

Greetings;For detail, visit http://www.lotusbrands.com/pdfs/Light_Mountain_Hair_Color.pdfIf you are not totally grey, the grey becomes strawberry & the reds deeper, for a beautiful multi-dimensional red. If you are predominently grey, it will look pink-ish. You've probably seen these older ladies around, bless their punk rock souls. Henna has a harder time attaching to gray hair because of changes in the protein base of gray hair. Light Mountain has developed another two-step product, "Color the Gray!" that effectively colors most gray hair. I have not tried this yet, but its available in eight shades & the box has a color chart to help you determine which shade is appropriate for you. Inside the box are two treatments: Step 1 is applied first to condition the gray hair, thus aiding the acceptance of the final color treatment. Step 2, the final treatment, seals in the color.

Question 3

The title of this product says a pack of 3, that implies that there are three 4 oz. packs of henna powder, resulting in a total of 12 oz, correct?

Accepted Answer

There are three 4oz boxes, resulting in a total of 12 oz. My hair is very thick, just past my shoulders, and I use two boxes (8 oz) for my hair.

Question 4

what are the contents of the Red? is there any senna or idigo included with the henna?

Accepted Answer

It's only a baggie full of regular henna. Hope this helps
