Henna - copper hair color and hair treatment (by weight)
Indian natural henna is a powder obtained from the dried and crushed leaves of the traditional Indian plant Lawsonia inermis, which contains a purely natural substance lawson, which binds to hair proteins and creates a copper hue.
In addition, the leaves and seeds of this plant have healing effects. They leave the hair shiny, soft and protect the scalp from dandruff or other skin diseases. Henna thus gives the hair a natural shine and a characteristic red-brown shade. It has a lasting coloring effect without containing ammonia, peroxide, parabens, heavy metals or other chemical additives.

Myths about Henna
Henna will dye my hair green...
Genuine 100% pure henna only dyes copper shades depending on the current hair pigmentation.
However, henna can react green if you do not use pure henna, but henna with metallic additives. Sometimes chemical additives are added to lower quality henna to promote red pigments.
I can't use henna on chemically colored hair ...
After coloring with chemical dyes, we recommend a minimum of 4 weeks before henna application. This is so that henna can penetrate the structure of the hair and give it color pigment and beneficial effects.
With henna, hair can be recolored to any color ...
Naturally, henna always dyes hair only in copper shades depending on its pigmentation. Conversely, henna that dyes other than copper is henna with added dye. If the copper glare suits you, it is always better to use pure henna, as you can be sure of the maximum significant preventive and nourishing effects for your hair. For our customers who are not satisfied with the copper color, we have prepared several alternatives, such as cassia, indigo, henna & indigo.
