Can I use permanent hair color after Henna?

[QB]

I want to dye my hair jet black I've been using henna for about a year, is it safe to use a permanent dye if so which one?

Overall, most boxes of permanent commercial color advise you not to use the product over henna. I would wait 6-9 months or more after your last henna treatment before I used anything besides semi permanent color, such as a rinse.

If you have been using unadulterated, BAQ henna, yeah, you can dye over it - definitely do a strand test first.
If you are the least bit doubtful about the source/ingredients in your henna - I would wait a month or so, then strand test......

Can I use the semi permanent cream type dye?

If you used pure body art quality henna, I believe you can.

I did but I went lighter, it gave a reddish tinge, it has faded and now I see the box colour more (i henna-ed last about june?)
