Davis Finest - Organic Henna Powder, 100g - Lawsonia Inermis - Henna Hair Colour, PPD-Free Natural Hair & Beard Dye, Chemical Free - Ideal for Hair Colouring & Mehndi Cones Paste -100% Plant Based

The Backstory: I first started using henna 10 years ago, then because I heard it was strengthening to the hair, later to cover emerging grays. I bought the henna from my local health store and dreaded everytime i went to use it. I could deal with the mess of application and the 'henna drip' once applied, but the drama getting the stuff out of my African 4c hair was stressful and damaging to my hair. The bits of twigs and stones (yes!!) irritated my scalp and is rough on delicate African hair. It was taking me between 20 - 30 minutes just to rinse the henna out, that is a ridiculous amount of water and stress on the hair and it showed with the hair loss. I calculate that of all the henna I have bought in the last ten years I have thrown away two thirds of it, because it has expired before I could use it up as I was avoiding using it, and there was no way I would risk using henna less effective for the same amount of labour. I started using hair dye (herbal, less damaging, but with peroxide none the less) and the ease was such that henna looked like a thing of the past, until on one occasion I noticed alot of tiny broken pieces of hair while rinsing out the dye and for weeks after. I decided to give henna one last try and investigate this Body Art Quality, because in reviews no one complained about rinsing it out. Product Review: Cue my ordering 100g of Davis Finest Red Henna. From decanting and mixing with lemon juice all the lumps indicated I was dealing with a product of a different calibre, the henna powder was superfine. 24 hours later when I went to apply, all the lumps disappeared. The paste was a goey texture, really easy for me to handle, and took to my hair like a dream. No irritation to the scalp, no 'bits, 'no stones; nothing. Yet, I was worried. 10 hours later (I slept in the henna) I couldn't wait to get the henna out of my hair, one of my last experiences one year ago (health food store henna) matted and took out considerable chunks of my hair. My head hanging over the bath, shower head in hand, nothing but coloured water leaves my hair, no twigs, no stones, no seeds, no sand, nothing but coloured water, barely any hair, barely ANY hair. I think it took 5 minutes to get the water out of my hair which is between 5 and 8 inches in length. I WAS SHOOK. I AM SHOOK A mild, pleasant red has taken already to my grays, and I applied indigo afterwards. This was thee most enjoyable (!) and rewarding hair care experience I have had, let alone henna experience. This product is a must, the quality is superb.

I AM VERY HAPPY WITH IT THANK YOU SELLER! I feel like many just need to know how to use it properly then they will be just fine aswell.

I ordered this henna as i was looking for a way to continue dying my hair with organic products. It arrived really quickly and the company emailed to check I got the delivery ok. Personally I prefer darker henna so I mixed it with coffee. The result was great. Dark red. Exactly what I was looking for. The hair texture after applying is great too. I'm giving it 4 stars for two reasons. The packaging was not clearly labelled so you couldn't read the ingredients directly, however they are available on the website. The other slight criticism is the powder is very fine and it tends to stick in blobs which makes it tricky to mix. I've found a way around it by breaking the blobs with a fork before mixing it. Otherwise it's excellent. Would definitely use this product again.

A hair emergency caused me to buy this! I’d dyed my hair ginger with a perm dye, and it had turned out yellow. I decided to try out henna because I didn’t want to Chuck yet more chemicals onto my hair to sort it out. The henna arrived quickly, and well packaged. I don’t know a lot about henna, so had to google a lot of what to do. It did come with instructions, but a lot of people seem to use it in different ways for different results. I wanted my hair to look more of a reddish ginger, and as that required me to go a bit darker, I used coffee to mix with the henna. Side note: the henna smelt AWFUL!! Honestly, it made me feel sick. I then left the mixture covered over night. I used it the next day. It was really messy, But no more so than a hair dye. 100mgs was MORE than enough to cover my long hair. I only used about half the mixture. I put cling film over my hair once I’d covered it, and left it for a few hours. Washing it off was a nightmare, it took about an hour to get it out, and I still found a clump of it left over after washing. Pretty sure it’s not recommended to shampoo it out, but I did. I couldn’t stand the smell lingering in my hair, and I was struggling to get it all out with just water. I also did condition after because my hair was so knotty after using it. The pictures are the end result. My hair is very patchy and damaged from years of bleach and dyes, so I was nervous how this would turn out. But It turned out pretty much how I wanted! It’s definitely darkened my hair a little, evened out the colour, and given me more of the red tint I wanted. Also my hair looks SO healthy!! Id highly recommend just trying it on a strand of hair first to check it will go the colour you want. I’m not sure I’d buy again. It was a lot of work, and I only really used it this one time to avoid re dyeing my hair so soon. But it did what I wanted it to do so I’m happy.

My naturally red hair has been fading slowly, and getting more dry. I bought this to stop looking like a vaguely ginger ashtray and it has definitely livened up the colour. My hair also looks glossier and feels smoother. I used half the pack, mixed it with warm water and the juice of 3 lemons, then let it sit overnight. I applied it in the morning (to my hair, neck, hands, toilet seat and floor) and left it for 4 hours. I nearly panic-washed it after 3 hours but held my nerve. It took ages to rinse out, and the day-glo strands on the bath gave me the fear. When I dried it I appreciated how soft and shiny it was. It’s bright. I don’t know if I can carry it off at this age. Young people - you’re going to love it! It’s a really shiny, glowy red/orange. Fellow middle-aged women: rinse it off after 2 hours. UPDATE AFTER A MONTH: The colour has lasted freakishly well. It hasn’t washed out or faded at all, so I’m now here with a bag on my head again, touching up the roots. I was scared of the colour at first but it turns out everyone loves it. This is now my favourite henna ever. Long-lasting, really conditioning, and a glorious colour.

Great henna. I will definitely buy again. I used the whole package on my hair, and it was the perfect amount. I mixed it with 2 teaspoons of citric acid and roiboos tea. I wanted to get orange tone. I kept it on for 5 hours. Whenever I washed it off it was much brighter and less natural orange. This is my hair after 3 days. I absolutely love it! My hair is shiny and healthy and I have beautiful colour. All of my greys are covered too! I've put the photo of my hair before and after :)

Gives good colour but the advice note is poor if you have sensitive skin. It had dried up my scalp and for the first time ever, I’m experiencing dandruff. Not the look I was going for! On the plus, the colour is beautiful and rich. If you are to buy this and you have sensitive skin, go on a henna website and look at different options other than straight lemon juice.

Amazing quality of this henna, my hair look amazing, highly recommend

A cor é linda, dissolve-se muito bem. Para melhores resultados deixar muito tempo. Eu deixo 4h.

Marche très bien

Polvere ultrafine senza sabbia colore perfetto anche con tempi minimi di posa. La pasta risulta vellutata e non cola durante l’applicazione. Usare liquidi molto caldo velocizza il rilascio del colore.

Très bon produit

Hat für mehrere Male gereicht meine Haare zu färben, ist super schöne Farbe für meine dunkle Haare , Qualität ist sehr gut, bedeckt auch meine graue Haare, aber natürlich die sehen heller aus , was selbstverständlich ist, dafür sieht das aus wie Strähnchen das mag ich sehr. Nur zum empfehlen zu kaufen, wer Naturprodukte mag .
