Hey everyone. I have a question for you henna queens. I want to use henna when my highlights start to grow out. Heres my question, I want a reddish color so has anyone done this and if so are there any pictures available, I have seen some results on Caucasian hair but thats different also what type of recipe would I use and what type of henna. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I had light brown highlights, I used Jamilia henna, with 1tblspoon of indigo, and got this color

, it looks different in certain lights, , in any event I love it,

I believe more indigo, will give more red, try www.hennaforhair.com, for a ton of reciepies, hth

Did you use lemon juice? how long did you leave on your hair?

I used Vinegar, enough to make a paste, added the indigo, let it sit for 1 hour, added,olive oil conditioner, and then applied to my hair, the slimy looking mud concoction, left it on for 1 1/2 hours, rinsed, shampooed, deep conditoned,
