If you are going gray or completely gray Henna is a safe all natural alternative when done correctly.
You can use colors that are similar to your natural hair color with added natural tints like beets, coffee, and different teas for highlights. For those of you who wish to try alternatives that are natural, henna is the way to go, BUT do your research. There are a ton of fakes out there. I discovered how to do this from a friend in India many years ago. I attempted after doing the research :)

Color the grey box haïr .alma. coconut mimi beet juice dark coffee too Bad you don't mesure the ingredients. How many times ?2

@CATryIt-jz4rc 2 месяца назад

Hi thank you so much for your comment and questions and thank you so much for watching! I don’t measure much because different henna requires different measurements, but here is a good rule of thumb that I think you’ll like - Amla about 2 tablespoons - tea and coffee I mix together to get the desired color I want and then I add it to the henna - about 1 cup to each package of henna powder - and if I want a stronger highlight- i mix a stronger color first before adding to the henna. I hope that makes sense - let me know if that doesn’t help

Where can I buy HENNA POWDER🇿🇦

@CATryIt-jz4rc Месяц назад

Hi there! @tries-hn8uy - if it is safe to assume you are in South Africa 🇿🇦:-) there is a company called Love My Hair where you can find the henna powder and the indigo to mix with. It is organic and better than commercial hennas that may not be as pure. Also you can buy it on amazon and you can see if they have the brand that I buy - “light mountain” :-) let me know if this helps you. Thank you so much for watching.

Does it colour your skin like hair dye does and how do you avoid that?

@CATryIt-jz4rc Месяц назад

It can yes - but it is not difficult to remove like normal hair dye. You can dab some oil on a cotton ball paper towel and you can even use a little soap and water. 😎

@pelinbingullu2761 2 месяца назад

The result looks great, exactly the color I wanted. So how often do you dye your hair? How long does henna last? Of course, the hair growth time differs for everyone, but I wonder how long the color stays?

@CATryIt-jz4rc Месяц назад

Yay I’m so glad and thank you for watching- The color stays pretty well actually you’re right it does depend on the type of hair you have and how fast it grows- for me…I have a lot of gray in my hair so I find myself using henna probably every eight weeks or so. That’s about how long it lasts maybe even longer it just depends on how much I want my gray roots to start poking out hahahaha. It’s great coverage and last pretty well in my opinion. In the past I’ve gone three months or so.

@CATryIt-jz4rc 2 месяца назад

Hi aw thank you so much! It makes me truly happy you enjoyed it. Looks like you can have the same color or close to it! Let me know if it worked for you. God bless!

That s beautiful!i ve tried blonde henna cause i m blonde but my gray in the front is still gray i think i ll give up!i m sure it s my hair they re difficult i ve tried perm 4 times in different salon but they stayed straight and the dye didn t cover the gray!kisses from Greece!

@CATryIt-jz4rc 3 месяца назад

Thank you for watching and I love it ❤️ wow from Greece! Sending big hugs to you. Yes it sounds like you may need to go a shade darker w henna. It’s an enhancer so blonde henna on blonde hair won’t really have the best results I would think. If you were to use a light brown or a darker shade of the blonde it may actually color it. It’s also okay to embrace the gray too. ☺️ I’ll do some research and see if maybe there is an alternative for you. Thank you for making me smile 🙏

@bosesoumi 3 месяца назад

I use henna on my hair. Please use pure henna powder, you can change the orange color of henna by mixing tea (dark brown) or coffee (coffee brown) or beetroot for dark red color. If you use indigo after henna, you can get black hair.

@spiridoulatsou8138 3 месяца назад

I tried brown and it didnt cover it!the rest of the hair was ok until the next day that i took a bath!my sister in law uses the same henna and it covers everything!but she has thin hair.Thank you for answering me you re so sweet!

Too many ingredients and about coconut milk, if you have fine low porosity hair it’s cold be disaster. Did it once and it was nightmare to rinse out henna, my beautiful hair was like a straw, I was in shock, took me week to resolve this disaster.

@CATryIt-jz4rc Месяц назад

Oof I’m sorry to hear that. It must’ve been terrible. You’re right in that The good thing about Henna is that you don’t necessarily need to use that many ingredients. I love the fact that you mentioned coconut milk, and low porosity hair. I have always heard that it was the coconut oil that is not ideal for low porosity hair because low porosity hair has tightly packed cuticles that make it difficult for moisture to penetrate the hair shaft. Coconut oil has large molecules that has trouble penetrating the tightly closed cuticle for low porosity hair. It could have been the protein in the coconut milk if that is what you used. I also hear that you can use a hair oil after applying henna instead of mixing it with it. A mix of four vegetable oils such as rice, sunflower, avocado, and sweet almond oil can be beneficial for low porosity hair. Or you can even add conditioner that you like to your henna recipe.

Every ingredient is healthy for your hair ❤. I've started using henna and all its healthy mixtures a few months ago and I love it..

@CATryIt-jz4rc Месяц назад

I’m so glad and thank you for watching. Yes I agree. I think Henna is the best way to go when you’re trying to use something natural and I love all of the things that you can add to it depending on your hair and what you need. My mother, who is now passed away used to use a lot of box color in her hair almost monthly. And I always wondered if there was a better way. She also had very thin, thin hair and I just felt that it could not have been very good for her to use that all the time. Don’t get me wrong. She looked great though haha - but yes But I started messing with henna when I really didn’t want to use so many chemicals in my hair anymore. It’s been a wonderful solution and I’m glad you like it. Thanks for watching. I love comments. And thanks again!

Appreciated the disclaimer at the beginning :) You can use beet powder instead of fresh beets, also hibiscus powder or tea is nice for red tones. I am a huge fan of Light Mountain henna, been a loyal user of their red, bright red and light red hennas for over 25 years now! I don't use the color the gray series, just the plain boxes of the colors I mentioned. My hair is half grey underneath the henna, but with the henna I get a natural red color.

@CATryIt-jz4rc Месяц назад

Thank you so much for these tips. I totally agree with you on the beats if you have beet powder that also works super well I love hibiscus powder. I have used it before it is wonderful for the red tones. You are right. I am so glad I get to meet a fellow fan of light mountain. I have been using it for a very long time myself. You know what I’m gonna give it a try on the single color. I probably have to leave it on longer, but I think I’m gonna have a video series on doing single boxes as well thank you so much for watching. I love the comments.

@CATryIt-jz4rc Месяц назад

PS I love it when people comment on that disclaimer because they know where it came from. Ha ha good call.

@wyrdwitch13 Месяц назад

@@CATryIt-jz4rc I have found that putting two winter hats over the plastic bag once the henna is on really helps with ultimate dye release! It keeps the heat from your head in the paste and no hair dryer needed.

@Vajza2024 2 месяца назад

It if want them light brown ?

@CATryIt-jz4rc 2 месяца назад

Hi! Thanks so much for watching- yes if you want the highlights a light brown I’d go with honey bush teas or a light coffee mixed e chamomile. It also depends on your natural hair color :-) and you can buy a light brown henna too. Just try and get organic when you can. I will have more soon. Take care!

@noorraad7383 2 месяца назад

Hello, can I ask a question? I want the red color. What are the materials that are added with henna, how much, and does it need fermentation after kneading it and how long does it remain on the hair for the hair color to become red?

@CATryIt-jz4rc 2 месяца назад

Hi of course and thank you for watching! :-) I mix my henna to get rid of the bubbles (w out metal by the way) for a good few minutes - the consistency and thickness should be like a pudding or a yogurt. There are many different shades of red and you can use beets like I did you can use teas like I did and you can buy good pure henna as it already by itself is red in color (Lawsonia Inermis). How long depends on your hair texture and color - I typically have it on my hair for about 3 hours total. My video does mention some of the details as well. :-) let me know how it turns out!
