As a Saudi girl, I have been using henna all my life. The past 5 years I had to dye only the roots to cover the grey hair. Henna makes grey hair orange! My mother use katam regularly but still doesn't work efficiently , may be the mistake is in the preparation. We usually add yogurt and leave it to set a while. Also we add chamomile for lightening or Roselle (a red plant ) to give the hair a reddish brown color , and clove to thicken the hair, I don't know if it is true but we add it :) Love your videos and thank you very much :)
Thank you Bite0fSugar for sharing with us your experience with henna. It may turn useful to somebody else too :) Henna makes hair orange or red and mixed with katam or indigo it gives you that amazing dark or light brown ;)
I have tried your recipe of Hennah and it is great , I was skeptical not to leave henna for hours before putting it on my hair. I followed all your instructions and I got a great color from first time, all gray is completely covered with a minimum time recommended. Add nothing to you hennah but WATER NO OTHER .... yes and stick to a great quality hennah before any thing. Thank you for sharing, also I have the same cat with blue eyes and her name is Bella
i dye my hair with henna, for about four months.:D and it is so great, it gives me natural red hair, and helps my hair to reduce frizz, and it moisturise it..i dyed my hair once with chemmical dye, and got allergic reaction because of PPD.never again.henna that i buy has only one ingredient, lawsonia intermis, so it doesn't have chemicals.because some ' natural henna' has it.the only thing that i do is, mix henna with red wine.:D because you get more intense color..kisses and hugs from serbia.
You are the best of the best to share this simple, straight and beautiful way to darken grey hairs with henna and indigo powder. For the first time in my life I enjoyed dyeing my hair with your tutorial. Thank you. Bless you
Hi Rozalia I am a male and I would like to thank you for your tips on Hanna application.I was dying my hair medium to dark brown with a commercial applicator dye method for men.I have aprox 30-40% grey hair and after about 2 years found dandruff to be a problem.For years now I have been steering away from commercial shampoos and thought it was time to research natural Henna as a healthy alternative.There is a lot of complicated and messy videos on you tube but I wanted a one step process and chose your advice.Well I mixed 3 heaped tablespoons of 100% henna and the same with 100% indigo i applied it around 7.30pm and rinsed at midnight because i wanted to go to bed.My wife joked about wheather I would end up looking like Ronald mcdonald or the green Goblin and she couldnt stop laughing.Well i was surprised to find it turned out a medium brown my hair feels thicker and healthier. I will apply this earlier next time and leave it on longer.Even though I rinsed it with luKe warm water and a little apple cider vinegar my hair feels a little dry so I might add a little coconut oil or essential oils is that ok? Once again thank you I am realy happy with the results.
Hi Lea Wild this is just great news! happy to hear my experience turned useful to you! I'd advice you to avoid adding vegetable or essential oils as they may prevent the color from getting on to your hair. In order to avoid the dryness sensation, I can advice you 2 alternatives: instead of adding warm water to your henna mix, try adding flaxseeds gel (bit.ly/FlaxseedsBenefits ) just leave it less on the flame in order not to reach the gel consistency so that you can easily mix it with your henna herbs or consider making some hair masks in between the henna sessions. Just remember that it's said that oily hair masks tend to make the color go away from your hair...but you try it yourself & see which solution best fits your hair! Take care & thank you so much for sharing your henna experience with me! :)
***** Thanks Rozalie I will try the flaxseed mask.Incidently I have muesli for breakfast which I also add Linseed,sunflower & almond meal prepacked by Nutrivital in a 400gr pack that has been already been grinded I buy this from a healthfood shop.But you make an interesting point of being rancid even though I keep this in the fridge the linseed may have already been rancid before i bought it. Also i read somewhere else that coconut milk added to henna helps bring out the colour instantly but also is great for mosturising could i use warm coconut milk instead of warm water? Thanks Peter :)
Hi Peter, in order to make the flaxseed gel I'd recommend using whole flaxseeds not the grinder ones..also for a filtering issue as well. Well, you may absolutely try using coconut milk..see if & how it works for you..keep me posted! :)) Take care & good luck with your henna experiments!
I have been using your pure henna on my grays for years. I have very dark brown hair and the covered grays are copper red. A lot of ppl think I have some red highlights but they don’t notice it right away. I get a lot of compliments and may hair is healthy. I didn’t like the color until all my previously dark golden brown dyed hair grey out. Then I was left with my rich dark brown virgin hair with some copper reddish highlights (the covered grays). That’s when it was rich and healthy and I really loved it.
I did my first henna dye yesterday: 40 % lawsonia, 40 % indigo/katam, 20 % cassia. I got a medium brown hair. I'm very happy with the result. Thank You! I had chemical dye color on my hair, but the result was still perfect.
Thanks for this video. All of the above I saw were so messy that I almost desist using henna, but apparently you did everything so clean and natural that I'll try
Thank you for this fabulous video filled with such great information. I have been detoxing my hair by No Pooing (no shampoo or conditioner) and using baking soda and apple cider vinegar. My hair is coming along after 3 weeks. I now want to stop using chemicals to color my grey hair and found this so helpful. I am a bit nervous to mess with my hair as I have been chemically coloring it for a very long time and want to make sure the henna is pure and the right ratio. My natural color is dark brown but has been chemically reddish for a long time. Fingers crossed I can figure it out. :) Great videos, website and personal journey.
Thank you Denise for sharing your journey with us too :)) Happy to see you've found your way towards a healthier & shinier hair..& I'm pretty much sure everything will turn out for the best. Remember to always test the quality of henna on a small strand of hair before applying it. Fingers crossed for you
***** Thanks Rozalia! I will keep you posted as I go. :) I am saving hair from my brush to do the test on. Thanks for your help and feedback. Ciao Bella!!
Nice video content! Excuse me for the intrusion, I would love your opinion. Have you considered - Millawdon Goodbye Gray Trick (google it)? It is a great exclusive guide for learning how to reverse gray hair fast without the hard work. Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my close friend Aubrey after many years got great results with it.
Grazie Rozalia, non mi sono ancora decisa ad abbandonare le tinture chimiche, purtroppo, ma mi hai dato molte utili informazioni per quando mi deciderò a farlo! Mi spaventa un pò il provare e verificare, ma visto che hai condiviso già le tue fatiche in tal senso, mi sento più fiduciosa per quando proverò! Grazie della tua generosità....
Ciao Valentina, grazie per il tuo commento! Vedrai che piano piano maturerà anche in te il desiderio di provare l'henné. Anche io ci ho messo un bel po' di tempo per decidermi a provarlo la prima volta..Intanto hai fatto dei buoni passi in avanti informandoti almeno :)) Baci
Very helpful video, thank you! What percentages of henna/indigo/cassia do you currently use? And what percentages if you want to achieve a reddish mid brown? Thanks again
Yes but back then in my country Mexico I only found one kind of henna (did not know) there was different kinds so I did use cinnamon infused water to get a redish color and chamomile tea to achieve a lighter color.
Katha, Indigo, Henna, for reddish brown to cover grey hair, more henna or 50℅ henna, 25℅ katha, 25℅ indigo, the katha overrides the orange in the henna, (katha/henna makes grey hair a coffee type colour). Henna mixed without the indgio, mixed indigo on its own with katha. Apply separately.
I've been using Cassia, but mostly for conditioning purposes. I'm long overdue for a treatment, ha. I've always had a few weird very light or white, not sure, haha, hairs and it makes them more golden and blend in with my dark blond. Thanks for the vid, I love how knowledgeable you are :)
I forgot an important point re hair; I need to buy more henna, do you recommend any special henna and Indigo? I'm presently on French territory so when I get back to my beautiful twin-isle Republic of Trinidad and Tobago, I will definitely buy all the India supplies that I need. What's your recommendation, please? Cheers.
I am so thankful for your video, my kids are a little older so I am catching up on myself. I will use your tips. I have noticed that your hair is similar to the (bangs) cut I just got. Though I am slowly getting the hang of in,I am having a terrible time trying to style them nicely. Would you be interested in showing a few ways you do them?
Hi madejuthink it could be a nice idea :) I'll look into it...Actually I have my bangs cut by my hairdresser ever 5-6 months...but in between, every 2-3weeks I have to cut them myself and the results are great...you would not say I'm doing it myself..would you ? :)) If you have them cut of the right length it is a lot easier to style them nicely :)) Thank you for reaching out :*
Thank you so much for the detailed information in your video. I've been researching dyeing my hair naturally (I had dark brown hair before I went mostly gray)
The details the information and they way you see nature as solution is very impressive admire your knowledge on the subject I have been using henna for many years , one time just one time i used hair color my hair started falling like im going bald ,Im back to henna now can you tell us some tips how to prevent hair loss or treatment for hair loss
Sangeetha Anand henna applications transformed my hair too! It literally saved me considering that I have thin flat hair :) I'll loon into your prevention request, but remember that the most important thing is a correct healthy diet..helping the hair from the inside can do miracles
I'm eating vegi diet with lots of greens and nuts hope Im doing good for my skin and hair. its taking more time to get the volume of my hair bcoz i delivered my cutie pie 10months ago :)
Hi Suzan Salem, is yours an affirmation or a question? :)) Some people do use Amla to cool down the red shades..I've never needed to do it as it would make my brown too harsh :))
Hi Kim, I published a lot of other videos on henna in italian with english subs. You may find a lot more thorough info on my blog (videos included) : www.beautiliciousdelights.com.
Henna can create beautiful hair color, however, a word of caution; if you decide after using a henna hair color with metallic dye in it and then switch back to regular chemical dyes you risk breaking your hair off terribly as the chemical dye will weaken the hair strands when they make contact with the metallic dye. Always do a test strand in the back of your head first. I have been a licensed hair dresser for over 40 years. Be careful please.
You know what is interesting with this … nobody ever considers heavy metal toxicity .. heavy metals also accumulate in the hair. Why people do hair testing. My hair can never withstand bleaching very well and I have naturally thick hair with different texture .. some Normal and other strands are extremely course.
Great video. I did the henna with the indigo mixed together to color my gray hair and after 4 hours not a single strand of hair was colored very disappointing, now I am trying the henna by itself first and then I will try the indigo on its own to see if it works.
+BeautyFoodTips I just did the henna first left it for 4 hours it turned gray hairs orange then I applied indigo left it on for 2 hours and wow all my grays turned dark brown, really amazing my hair looks thicker, shinnier than ever, the only problem is that the indigo gives me blue fingers every time I do my hair, it looks like I needed to shampoo to get it all off, what is your opinion on this.
I am a swimmer and the chlorine is brutal on my hair.. How often would you suggest me having to dye my hair with henna and what other precautions can I take to somewhat preserve the color.. Thank you in advance
Hello Rozalia, thank you for this wonderful video. Would you please share how much henna, cassia and indigo you used to make paste of henna. Pls. reply.
you dont have to use henna first,so the henna and indigo bind to a base,because indigo binds to henna and henna binds to the hair,and if not you can use henna 1 part and indigo 3 parts the first time you use them,thanks
Hello Thank you for such a lovely explication of henné n I simply love henné. Now I use only henné products. I just wander if one can highlight though I have 40 percent of grey hair, and how to do it. I hope to get an answer from u if you could spare a few minutes. Thank you😄
Hi Zarina Bouyer Well, you should already have some highlights due to your percentage of gray hair..I sure do, also because I have twice your percentage :)) Henna or the other herbal hair colors cannot highlight the hair, but you should note a light difference between your gray hairs and the non gray hairs..when you dye them they with henna they have different shades in the sun, don't they? :)
I am sorry I only reply now +Kalyan Vishnubhatla, but youtube notifications did not work well in the past months. No, you don't have to soak henna, nor indigo or katam..just apply them on your hair as soon as you mix them. I hope this helps :))
great video! I really dislike the hinna's orange color, but the mix you made is so beautiful and your hair looks healthy too. I have curly hair and usually hinna makes my hair soft and shiny. but I once used katam long ago and I noticed that my hair got so dry and unhealthy. that's why i stopped. is your hair naturally soft? maybe that's why it wasn't effected. cause my hair is already damaged from hair dyes and as much as my hair likes hinna, i don't like the smell or the orange color. which is really bad since I am still young and i had premature grays since i was 13!
Thank you so much for all your materials on henna! It is very very helpful! I have a question regarding covering grey hair roots with henna. Is there a special technique or tips how you do this? For some reason when I cover roots by myself it is always a mess and I finally colour all my hair, which is not right :) Thank you!
Hi Tanya Topchiy , thank you for stopping by. All of my tips have been shared in this video and the 2nd one, available here : czcams.com/video/nvFqxgzz2sY/video.html. Also make sure to check also the dedicated blog post : www.beautiliciousdelights.com/blogs/news/19085463-capelli-bianchi-precoci-coprili-naturalmente-con-lhenne-e-le-erbe-tintorie. I am pretty much sure that in time you will obtain great results :)
Hi, Thank you very much for all the information it looks really useful and I'm now ready to use henna for the first time. Please could you tell me a little more about the rinsing with vinegar that you mention near the end of the video? Does it matter what sort of vinegar and should the vinegar be diluted at all? Should I rinse the vinegar out with water immediately or leave it on for a few minutes? Also, I have bought some sidr. When would be the best time to use this after I dye my hair for the first time? Many thanks again :)
Hi Rachel Edwards , glad you reached out to me! Keep in mind that apple vinegar has a less strong scent than the other vinegars on the market. It absolutely has to be diluted, 1 spoon for 1l of cold water...use it as the last rinse on your hair, don't use othe water to rinse this mix off..You may use sidr instead of the shampoo to rinse away the henna treatment...but be prepared as it won't foam and it's not that easy to use, but the results are worth ;) Should you have other doubts make sure to check also my dedicated blog post: www.beautiliciousdelights.com/blogs/news/19101851-vademecum-erbe-tintorie-ed-henne-lawsonia-inermis! Much love and happy henna! :)) Rozalia
Bellissimo il tuo assistente-parrucchiere! ;) BTW, interessante davvero questo video, ero convinta che non fosse possibile ottenere un colore diverso dal solito rosso! Anche io tingo i capelli ormai da molti anni e mi piacerebbe provare, ma mi spaventa un po' anche per via del mio colore attuale....
Jax Gatewood I can share with you what I think about it if you post also the ingredients list..I don't know this brand. Usually henna has to be left on for 4-6 hours to cover the grey hairs ;)
Great video, but I would like to know is it always you apply henna, wash it and than apply Indigo? or you can start with indigo first, wash it and than apply henna. And for how long you leave the indigo sit on your hair?
Laura Ti Hi Laura, as I say in my video, I usually apply a mix of the 3 herbal hair powders. If you have grey hair and wish to obtain a dark brown / black color you should first apply lawsonia, and only afterwards indigo. You have to let them sit at least 4 hours :)
Very well detailed video. Few questions for you. I have dark ends with 30 to 40 Grey on the top, what do I use to get your color.? You mixed like 3-4 types of henna. What are those shades. Another thing, I didn't understand, did you just wash your henna with water, do you oil it later to set the color on the hair? I have been using regular henna to cover grey which gives orange color. Nxxt day I use indigo to achieve dark shade . It takes a lot of time and energy get the color I want. Yours is one step process.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. What do you recommend to do about the gray hair between touch ups. I have dark hair and if I wait 3-4 weeks to color my hair, the gray is very noticeable (it is noticeable after 5 days). I have about 30-40 % gray. I know that if I color every week it gets too dark. Thank you!
Same problem I have. I only touch up the roots 1-2cm, never go over the whole hair! Still I would like to have light brown, but it does not cover gray, it turns out red instead. So only dark brown covers gray successfully so far.
You are so beautiful :). Thank you so much for the video. So far, I have only a few white hairs but they are very obvious against the rest of my dark brown hair. I want to try this on the white strands but I must admit I am still intimidated to try as I have never used dyes of any kind before. It seems so difficult. I wanted to ask if it is safe to use henna while I'm pregnant, or should I wait until after my pregnancy?
Thank you BriarRose for reaching out to me. I warmly advise you to check this blog post with the most frequent questions I've been asked about herbal hair colors: www.beautiliciousdelights.com/blogs/news/19101851-vademecum-erbe-tintorie-ed-henne-lawsonia-inermis. I'm sure it will help you feel more secure to start using them. You'll also find the answer as far as it concerns the pregnancy, but to make a long story short...herbal hair colors have no contraindications for pregnant women, while chemical dyes..unfortunately do. Hugs, Rozalia
Hello, I have a black hair w/ gray hair, maybe 40 to 50 % already, I want to cover up my gray hair but its a long process of making Henna paste first then after it the Indigo. I just want to ask, could i just used one preparation. Can i just mixed Henna & Indigo together..? I don't know how much Henna & Indigo should i used. I have a shoulder length thin hair. My second questions, Is it okay if I used only an Indigo powder just to cover up my gray hair ...? I have also hairloss, do you think it would not damage more my hair...? I appreciate it so much if you could spare me an advice of how to color my hair perfectly. Thank you.
what did you use to hold the color in.... what did you use to rinse your hair.... I could not make it out on the video..... thank you so much for this video
Grazie per questo interessante video!io volevo portare i miei capelli dal mio colore nerissimo ad un rosso(lo so che è molto difficile) nella preparazione dell'intrulio uso molto henne e lo lascio ossidare una notte con limone o aceto.non aggiunto ne katam ne indigo.. Dici che in ogni caso è meglio utilizzare solo acqua tiepida?
Ciao Elisa Volpi, devi provare e vedere se noti la differenza. Io non ho mai aggiunto altro a parte l'acqua calda ed i risultati sono sempre stati più che soddisfacenti. Se vuoi riflessi rossi, direi che è ottima la tua tattica, evita di aggiungere katam o indigo perché non farebbero che scurirti l'attuale colore. Per dei riflessi rossi potrebbe aiutarti anche la robbia, da aggiungere nel tuo mix :)
You mentioned 3 products to mix together, one is indigo. I'm talking about the other two, the lawsonia inermis and cassia obovata. I thought these were different types of henna.
Hi 97grad there's some confusion going on :)) actually you may call henna only the lawsonia inermis plant..the other 2 or 3 are different plants :) Pls check also my blog post : www.beautiliciousdelights.com/blogs/news/19101851-vademecum-erbe-tintorie-ed-henne-lawsonia-inermis maybe it will help you get more clarity on the subject. In the video I make it pretty clear ( I think :)) which are the differences between the 3 types of plant powders I use to get my brown color :)) love, Rozalia
i'm gonna using henna to reach burgundy color by mixing henna with beetroot juicy , i have black hair and this is the first time i use it, after mixing both of it, should i apply it immediately like what you show in video or leave it for many hours before using it , sorry for my English, hope ur soon reply
Saluti Rosalia! I really liked this video as I m thinking about dying my hair with henna. I don t have any white hairs yet (yay!), i just wanted to try something a little different with my hair as i ve never coloured it before. My question is how long would the colour stay on my hair.. If i didnt like the result how could i get it out without damaging my hair.. Grazie mile!
Hello the tip too add 5% amla to my 85 % indigo & 10% henna + tsp salt fixed the problem of my jet black color fading now it's staying in much longer many thnx, but i have another problem the henna on my grey roots keeps fading faster and faster even before a week has passed ! How do i fix this problem I used BAQ henna, hot distilled water, tea or lemon juice or aloe vera juice because the stain is darker because of the acid and let it dye release for 5 hours and sleep in it overnight and rinse with water deep condition to moisturize the hair style and air dry I don't know what i'm doing wrong ?? Do you perhaps have an answer ??
Love your vid. I noticed some henna strands in your hair looked like highlights, can we expect this too or did you earlier highlight it? Did you use lemon to bleach some strands first?
It says it would be best not to shampoo your hair after treatment but that you can rinse your hair with ______ Vanguard(?) in the end. The closed caption doesn't spell it a word that makes sense in English though this is an English-speaking video.
I don't have a hair basin. I have a shower hose. You say dunking my hair in something to get rid of all the particles out of my hair? Dunk then rinse? Dunk is rinsing? Then don't wash for how long and use what afterwards? Sorry captioning isn't getting all of the words in English. Ring or Bun settling water to get rid of all the plant particles by dunk it in a pail of water and rinsing in the utility sink In so sorry but again captioning says something about doing something to your hair and then dunking it in a pail of water and rinsing it in the basin. How about this: I've waited 4 hrs. Nite next step is ______ your hair and dunk it in a pail of water and rinse it in the basin. I don't have a pail to dunk it. As I said above I hand a spray hose in my bath tub. What temperature should the rinsing water be? Warm cool or as warm as usual or tepid? Thank and again I'm sorry...
I have black hair and have lots of grey hair but when I use henna powder my grey hair turn red orange color. I would like to turn my red orange hair color turn black or dark brown what should I do? How hunch henna powder and how much indigo powder and katam powder should I use plz tell me?
Hi! Thanks for the nice video, I tried your products. I mixed 50 and 50 (4-6 hours) but still it didn't cover my gray hair (only change to orange color) I had to apply a second time with more indigo to cover the orange color. What can I do to do it only once and not twice. I love your hair :)
Hi Ursula, I get you say you are a client of our online store but in our database there is no Ursula at the moment..nevertheless the orange color you got is due to the percentages you used in your mix and to how much colour your grey is able to absorb..Just vary the percentages and you'll obtain great results with just 1 application ;)
Hi! I am so glad I found this! I need to switch to natural because of health issues and my hair is thinning badly. I love your color. Can you tell me what the formula is for your color? It is exactly what I want! I noticed you used three different henna powders. Do you mind telling me your mixture? And do they sell all three on the website or do they have colors already mixed?
Hi Terri, I spoke about the percentages I use in my mix here: czcams.com/video/Ox0iwIpmDJ4/video.html ( the video is in italian but there are english subs available). You may find a lot more thorough info on my blog (others videos included as well) : www.beautiliciousdelights.com
Thanks so much for the reply. i did wash my hair with soapnut shampoo and used mild conditioner, now my hair is soft but i see that the black colour of indigo has completely gone and all my grey hairs have turned red. i washed my hair after 3 days of applying henna+ indigo color. Should i wait for more days before i wash my hair? also how frequently can i apply the henna+indigo color. i liked it better when my hair was almost black before the indigo was washed away
oh I see...Sandhya Gopal. 3 days is ok..you may try waiting some more time to see if it makes a difference. You may apply the herbal hair colors as often as you'd like, there are no downsides if not eventually drying a little bit your lengths...but if you're applying it only on the regrowths where you have the grey you won't have this downside..
How can I get Karam and the other ingredient ? I can buy henna powder in the indian store but don't know where to get the other two. Any help? I live in Toronto.
Hi, I loved your video and I tried, gave excellent result!!! However, I have a question, in regards to washing out process? I loved your accent, however, didn't catch exactly what you said at the end to WASH hair out with? Is it vinegar? Please, let me know, with what to WASH hair with, because, that part is left unclear to me, since I rinsed it with simple water, n I still have green colour coming in my comb n on ✋!!! 🙏🙏 From India!!!
Ciao! trovo il tuo video molto utile. io dopo 6 anni di henne ho smesso e provato le tinte chimiche e a giugno ho fatto lo shatush 😯da settembre sono ritornata alla mia amata henne ma faccio un mix biondo con lawsonia e rabarbaro che tinte i miei capelli bianchi di biondo -rame. sono molto soddisfatta ma vorrei provare il katam per scurire le lunghezze decolorate e ormai rosso arancio che non mi donano affatto 😢 spero di trovarlo in giro. buone feste 😄
Ciao +Enza Px, per qualche mistero di CZcams vedo solo ora il tuo commento O_O.. Baci e a presto, Rozalia. P.s. Il katam lo trovi qui: www.curavisoecapelli.it/collections/cura-dei-capelli/products/henne-nero-katam-buxus-dioica-tinta-naturale-capelli
hi, great video but i just have one question to make sure i understood correctly. In order to cover grey hairs you need to apply a cover of red henna, let it set and rinse then apply the indigo after and repeat? In your video you mixed the 3 colours, therefore can i just avoid the 2 steps? thank you x
I just watched your other video and my question was answered there! :) Henna Hair Dye: F.A.Q on how to dye your hair naturally with black henna, red henna & cassia obovata
Hello Rozalia, In your video, you said to go to your beautyfood tips.com to get further details on the percentage you used for the mixing of the henna. I went into your blog but I couldn't find it. I was so inspired by your success of using henna that I just ordered henna for the first time from the site you mentioned. Could you please share with me how much you used? I want my grey to be dark brown. I have natural dark brown hair. About half of my hair is grey now. Thank you!!
Hi kangsmn, I am glad you're ready to give henna a go. I'm pretty much sure you'll fall in love. I did share on my blog the percentages of henna I use. Check it here: bit.ly/HennaDye. Copy - paste from my post on the blog: "I use a 25% cassia obovata, 25% lawsonia inermis and 50% katam to cover my grey roots while on my ends I lower the percentage of lawsonia inermis as the ends are already dyed". I did not provided exact grams of henna because that actually depends on how thick & long your hair is. Keep in mind that you'll have to personalize the above percentages according to your natural hair color. Let me know if I can be of further help. Much love, Rozalia
You are lovely, and the video is very nicely done. I have hair similar to yours and am very excited to see someone having such great results covering gray with henna! My hair is fine and low porosity. How would you describe your hair type? I might try your "recipe" on my own hair, and think this might be good to factor in. (I understand this is an older post, so you may not respond... but who knows? :) I am excited to have an all natural, chemical free option. Thanks for the great video!
I love the color that henna plus indigo gives to my grey hair however I have become allergic to Indigo, it gives me a horrible itch in the scalp and red blotches to any part of my skin that the indigo touches such as the neck and forehead. I'm looking for Katam everywhere but there is none available worldwide at the moment.
I have gray hair. I am a blonde. I haven't used chemical dyes on my hair in over 3 months. I want to use a safe natural dye.I have very light, blonde hair. Looks white especially with the gray coming in. I have read that blondes can use cassia obovata. I would like your opinion. Do you have any suggestions for blondes. I don't mind going a darker color. I don't really want the orange strawberry blonde with Henna. Would love some help. Thank you.
Hi monica joy, you may try using cassia but remember that cassia does not dye or cover grey hair. The only 100% natural hair dye is lawsonia and the shades on grey hair after application are orange / reddish. Dark haired blondes use cassia mixed with katam to obtain a dark blonde color. Katam on grey hair results in a greyish shade. In case you decide to go for this I strongly recommend you first make some trials on some hidden strands of hair or hair from your comb. I am sorry I cannot be of more help, but blonde ladies do not have as much choice when going natural :(. If you need other suggestions, pls feel free to reply. Hugs, Rozalia
Thank you for your video. You mentioned in the end of the video that you wash your hair with nature shampoo, I didn’t get the name of it. Can you please list the name of the nature shampoo and condition that you use and do you use soap nut with shampoo or alone? Thank you for your help
Hi nadia adams! You will find all the details about the homemade soap nuts shampoo over here: bit.ly/HomemadeSoapNutshampoo. I hope this will be of help! Happy Sunday! :*
Hi Sai Thirumaran, I do not think that henna is the problem :) The problem is having to keep the humid henna treatment on your hair for a long time which certainly does not help your sinus problem. Unfortunately I am not aware of any other plant that would require less time to dye your hair naturally...it would be a lot easier for all of us if it existed :))
Hi, Thanks a lot for the recipe. I would like to apply it to my mom. Would you please remind me the ingredients? 1. katam 2. Red henna 3. ? Are those just the ingredients? or did I miss one of them. Thanks again :)
Hi thx for the video..my hair is dyed and so m7ch damaged..color now is light brown..i live in Egypt ..can u tell me where I can buy the henna that achive light brown color?..and is it ok to dye it with henna while it is already chemicaly dyed?...my hair condition is depressing me and I need to get more healthy and thicker hair...plz answer me..thank you in advance
Hi Dalia Ismail pls watch attentively my video, you've got all the answers there...I tell you that I also dyed my hair 1 week after I dyed it..it all depends on the quality of henna you get (whether it's pure or not..)
Hi Rozalia, this is a really well thought out and informative video, thank you. But can I ask your advice please? I'm a guy with mousey brown (light ash brown) with hair with about 10% grey hairs. I would like to try and create my natural colour (and cover my greys) using henna, without gresulting in any red or blue tones, is this possible? if so, could you tell me how? Many thanks ! Ben
Hi Ben, it's more than possible..you just have to find the right mix for your hair. You have a low percentage of white hairs hence it should result even easier. On my blog: www.beautiliciousdelights.com you may find lots of detailed articles on how to achieve it.
Has anyone tried this with adding milk to the powders instead of water? I heard the henna can dry out your hair (like she says also) but the milk helps condition it
Hi Lauren Hayes, there are lots of "ideas" of how to best condition and prevent the hair from drying out. I recommend not adding anything to avoid that the colour may not release at its best. This does not mean you cannot give it a try and see how & if it works out for you :) Thank you for stopping by :)
I have not dyed my hair in 7 months and I would like to dye my now dark brown hair a black color as you mentioned in the video. But I would like to know if I would get a red tint if I used the henna mixture for black hair because I love the idea of black/ very dark hair with a reddish tint/ undertone to it, but if not, is there anyway to get the results I want?
Hi Dannynix usually people would like to avoid the red shades :)) But using lawsonia you are certain your hair WILL have reddish undertones as the black mix you obtain (usually using the 2 step process) is made up of katam and lawsonia :)
Hi, Rozalia. How did you transition your hair from commercial dyes to henna? I am 90% gray and using Goldwell 6N. I would like to transition to henna but don't know how.
Hi Grubby Newton , actually the most important thing in the transition is to make sure your henna is 100% pure so that the risk to end up with green hair is equal to zero. I applied my first henna treatment after 2 weeks from my last commercial dye. Nothing bad happened as my henna was 100% pure therefore the result was a nice chestnut..obviously the first months there were some differences between my roots and the lengths, but in time the difference was covered. Hope this helps, take care! :)) Rozalia
Hi thank you for sharing your very helpful vidio, I would like to try the henna package, could you please tell me what I have to order to be able to dye my grey roots and I have black hair so I need to get the darkest results that is possible! And also can you tell me the amounts I have to use of each to mix the right consistency thank you so much x
Traci Hi Traci, I've replied to your email as well. As for the percentages you should use, pls check out this blog post: www.beautiliciousdelights.com/blogs/news/19101851-lhenne-lawsonia-inermis-e-le-tinte-naturali-19-cose-da-sapere-prima-di-colorarti-i-capelli
wowwww... lovely info.thanks a ton...!!! I've used henna alone before but I didn't like the orange tint tht was on my hair.. specifically roots. so I started using hair color n I think its damaging my hair I'm thinking to go natural with henna n indigo. but how often do u use it as roots start to grow??
+BeautyFoodTips but my hair grows faster n roots start to peek out after a week :-( Btw I'm loving u so much that I've been seeing ur videos all day..I appreciate the effort u take to make videos..all natural attitude of urs is impressive..love from India :-*
aww..thank you so so much..you're lucky then to have a fast regrowth :)) then you'd have to make them every 2 weeks, but your hair will love it as it will make it stronger & healthier :)
Hi! You said not to wash your hair after the henna is rinsed out! I didn't understand what you said to use instead of shampoo it sound like you said vinegar
Hi jh878745. It would be better if you can avoid using shampoo when rinsing out the herbal hair colors, but if one get itchy scalp after the application it would be better to use shampoo anyway :) You may use diluted vinegar to rinse.
Hello! This is a great tutorial. I'm used to the two step henna process. Is it correct that you're mixing the lawsonia (red) WITH the katam (indigo) for a one step process? Thanks!

As a Saudi girl, I have been using henna all my life. The past 5 years I had to dye only the roots to cover the grey hair. Henna makes grey hair orange! My mother use katam regularly but still doesn't work efficiently , may be the mistake is in the preparation. We usually add yogurt and leave it to set a while. Also we add chamomile for lightening or Roselle (a red plant ) to give the hair a reddish brown color , and clove to thicken the hair, I don't know if it is true but we add it :)
Love your videos and thank you very much :)
Thank you Bite0fSugar for sharing with us your experience with henna. It may turn useful to somebody else too :) Henna makes hair orange or red and mixed with katam or indigo it gives you that amazing dark or light brown ;)
I have tried your recipe of Hennah and it is great , I was skeptical not to leave henna for hours before putting it on my hair. I followed all your instructions and I got a great color from first time, all gray is completely covered with a minimum time recommended. Add nothing to you hennah but WATER NO OTHER .... yes and stick to a great quality hennah before any thing. Thank you for sharing, also I have the same cat with blue eyes and her name is Bella
i dye my hair with henna, for about four months.:D and it is so great, it gives me natural red hair, and helps my hair to reduce frizz, and it moisturise it..i dyed my hair once with chemmical dye, and got allergic reaction because of PPD.never again.henna that i buy has only one ingredient, lawsonia intermis, so it doesn't have chemicals.because some ' natural henna' has it.the only thing that i do is, mix henna with red wine.:D because you get more intense color..kisses and hugs from serbia.
You are the best of the best to share this simple, straight and beautiful way to darken grey hairs with henna and indigo powder. For the first time in my life I enjoyed dyeing my hair with your tutorial. Thank you. Bless you
Most informative henna video I have watch on You Tube . thank you so much for sharing.
Awww...thank you so much Bobbie Sanchez! You're very kind to leave me your feedback! Glad it helped you! xoxox
Hi Rozalia
I am a male and I would like to thank you for your tips on Hanna application.I was dying my hair medium to dark brown with a commercial applicator dye method for men.I have aprox 30-40% grey hair and after about 2 years found dandruff to be a problem.For years now I have been steering away from commercial shampoos and thought it was time to research natural Henna as a healthy alternative.There is a lot of complicated and messy videos on you tube but I wanted a one step process and chose your advice.Well I mixed 3 heaped tablespoons of 100% henna and the same with 100% indigo i applied it around 7.30pm and rinsed at midnight because i wanted to go to bed.My wife joked about wheather I would end up looking like Ronald mcdonald or the green Goblin and she couldnt stop laughing.Well i was surprised to find it turned out a medium brown my hair feels thicker and healthier. I will apply this earlier next time and leave it on longer.Even though I rinsed it with luKe warm water and a little apple cider vinegar my hair feels a little dry so I might add a little coconut oil or essential oils is that ok?
Once again thank you I am realy happy with the results.
Hi Lea Wild this is just great news! happy to hear my experience turned useful to you! I'd advice you to avoid adding vegetable or essential oils as they may prevent the color from getting on to your hair. In order to avoid the dryness sensation, I can advice you 2 alternatives: instead of adding warm water to your henna mix, try adding flaxseeds gel (bit.ly/FlaxseedsBenefits ) just leave it less on the flame in order not to reach the gel consistency so that you can easily mix it with your henna herbs or consider making some hair masks in between the henna sessions. Just remember that it's said that oily hair masks tend to make the color go away from your hair...but you try it yourself & see which solution best fits your hair! Take care & thank you so much for sharing your henna experience with me! :)
***** Thanks Rozalie
I will try the flaxseed mask.Incidently I have muesli for breakfast which I also add Linseed,sunflower & almond meal prepacked by Nutrivital in a 400gr pack that has been already been grinded I buy this from a healthfood shop.But you make an interesting point of being rancid even though I keep this in the fridge the linseed may have already been rancid before i bought it.
Also i read somewhere else that coconut milk added to henna helps bring out the colour instantly but also is great for mosturising could i use warm coconut milk instead of warm water?
Thanks Peter :)
Hi Peter, in order to make the flaxseed gel I'd recommend using whole flaxseeds not the grinder ones..also for a filtering issue as well. Well, you may absolutely try using coconut milk..see if & how it works for you..keep me posted! :)) Take care & good luck with your henna experiments!
I have been using your pure henna on my grays for years. I have very dark brown hair and the covered grays are copper red. A lot of ppl think I have some red highlights but they don’t notice it right away. I get a lot of compliments and may hair is healthy. I didn’t like the color until all my previously dark golden brown dyed hair grey out. Then I was left with my rich dark brown virgin hair with some copper reddish highlights (the covered grays). That’s when it was rich and healthy and I really loved it.
I did my first henna dye yesterday: 40 % lawsonia, 40 % indigo/katam, 20 % cassia. I got a medium brown hair. I'm very happy with the result. Thank You! I had chemical dye color on my hair, but the result was still perfect.
Thank you Soile for sharing your positive experience!
How long does it stay?
Thanks for this video. All of the above I saw were so messy that I almost desist using henna, but apparently you did everything so clean and natural that I'll try
Thank you chikys5, it would be a pitty not to at least give it a try :)
Thank you for this fabulous video filled with such great information. I have been detoxing my hair by No Pooing (no shampoo or conditioner) and using baking soda and apple cider vinegar. My hair is coming along after 3 weeks. I now want to stop using chemicals to color my grey hair and found this so helpful. I am a bit nervous to mess with my hair as I have been chemically coloring it for a very long time and want to make sure the henna is pure and the right ratio. My natural color is dark brown but has been chemically reddish for a long time. Fingers crossed I can figure it out. :) Great videos, website and personal journey.
Thank you Denise for sharing your journey with us too :)) Happy to see you've found your way towards a healthier & shinier hair..& I'm pretty much sure everything will turn out for the best. Remember to always test the quality of henna on a small strand of hair before applying it. Fingers crossed for you
***** Thanks Rozalia! I will keep you posted as I go. :) I am saving hair from my brush to do the test on. Thanks for your help and feedback. Ciao Bella!!
Nice video content! Excuse me for the intrusion, I would love your opinion. Have you considered - Millawdon Goodbye Gray Trick (google it)? It is a great exclusive guide for learning how to reverse gray hair fast without the hard work. Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my close friend Aubrey after many years got great results with it.
Denise Argiro can you tell me ratio of your baking soda n vinegar please
Your explanation is highly appreciated I really love it, I hope this remedies will work for my grey hair. Thanks a lot.
Grazie Rozalia, non mi sono ancora decisa ad abbandonare le tinture chimiche, purtroppo, ma mi hai dato molte utili informazioni per quando mi deciderò a farlo! Mi spaventa un pò il provare e verificare, ma visto che hai condiviso già le tue fatiche in tal senso, mi sento più fiduciosa per quando proverò! Grazie della tua generosità....
Ciao Valentina, grazie per il tuo commento! Vedrai che piano piano maturerà anche in te il desiderio di provare l'henné. Anche io ci ho messo un bel po' di tempo per decidermi a provarlo la prima volta..Intanto hai fatto dei buoni passi in avanti informandoti almeno :)) Baci
Very helpful video, thank you! What percentages of henna/indigo/cassia do you currently use? And what percentages if you want to achieve a reddish mid brown? Thanks again
This is how I started dyeing my hair when I was a teenager over twenty five years!Now I want to go back ! Thanks for this vidio!
wow! you did guera70ful ? you were way ahead of me..it took me 30 years to give credit to henna :D
Yes but back then in my country Mexico I only found one kind of henna (did not know) there was different kinds so I did use cinnamon infused water to get a redish color and chamomile tea to achieve a lighter color.
great insight! thank you! :*
Katha, Indigo, Henna, for reddish brown to cover grey hair, more henna or 50℅ henna, 25℅ katha, 25℅ indigo, the katha overrides the orange in the henna, (katha/henna makes grey hair a coffee type colour). Henna mixed without the indgio, mixed indigo on its own with katha. Apply separately.
I've been using Cassia, but mostly for conditioning purposes. I'm long overdue for a treatment, ha. I've always had a few weird very light or white, not sure, haha, hairs and it makes them more golden and blend in with my dark blond. Thanks for the vid, I love how knowledgeable you are :)
Super gorrgeous hair !!! My mother used henna, aand her hair was beautiful !!!
Fabulous, informative video!! Thank you. Your hair is a beautiful color!
I forgot an important point re hair; I need to buy more henna, do you recommend any special henna and Indigo? I'm presently on French territory so when I get back to my beautiful twin-isle Republic of Trinidad and Tobago, I will definitely buy all the India supplies that I need. What's your recommendation, please? Cheers.
I am so thankful for your video, my kids are a little older so I am catching up on myself. I will use your tips. I have noticed that your hair is similar to the (bangs) cut I just got. Though I am slowly getting the hang of in,I am having a terrible time trying to style them nicely. Would you be interested in showing a few ways you do them?
Hi madejuthink it could be a nice idea :) I'll look into it...Actually I have my bangs cut by my hairdresser ever 5-6 months...but in between, every 2-3weeks I have to cut them myself and the results are great...you would not say I'm doing it myself..would you ? :)) If you have them cut of the right length it is a lot easier to style them nicely :)) Thank you for reaching out :*
Thank you so much for the detailed information in your video. I've been researching dyeing my hair naturally (I had dark brown hair before I went mostly gray)
How is it with henna now
I just ordered your red Henna for my hair! I'm so excited! Of course, I won't receive it until next month because I'm in the US, but oh well!!!
you will love the results! I am pretty sure :)) Just remember to first do the trial test to see if you love the color you'd obtain :)
The details the information and they way you see nature as solution is very impressive admire your knowledge on the subject I have been using henna for many years , one time just one time i used hair color my hair started falling like im going bald ,Im back to henna now can you tell us some tips how to prevent hair loss or treatment for hair loss
Sangeetha Anand henna applications transformed my hair too! It literally saved me considering that I have thin flat hair :) I'll loon into your prevention request, but remember that the most important thing is a correct healthy diet..helping the hair from the inside can do miracles
I'm eating vegi diet with lots of greens and nuts hope Im doing good for my skin and hair. its taking more time to get the volume of my hair bcoz i delivered my cutie pie 10months ago :)
wow! Congratz Sangeetha Anand For a cutie pie..all sacrifices are worth it ;))
Thank you for all the helpful information. 💗
Love your videos! Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge. Loved to hear the soft voice of your cat hahaha. Regards from Peru.
Hi your hair is a amazing you can use amla powder to cool down the red tint from henna
Hi Suzan Salem, is yours an affirmation or a question? :)) Some people do use Amla to cool down the red shades..I've never needed to do it as it would make my brown too harsh :))
You (and your cat) are so cute! Video is very helpful; I watch it over and over. I wish you'd make more.
Hi Kim, I published a lot of other videos on henna in italian with english subs. You may find a lot more thorough info on my blog (videos included) : www.beautiliciousdelights.com.
Hi. You didn't say when to rinse it out..after how many hours? Great video!!! Doing this for the first time and I cant wait for the results !!!
Henna can create beautiful hair color, however, a word of caution; if you decide after using a henna hair color with metallic dye in it and then switch back to regular chemical dyes you risk breaking your hair off terribly as the chemical dye will weaken the hair strands when they make contact with the metallic dye. Always do a test strand in the back of your head first. I have been a licensed hair dresser for over 40 years. Be careful please.
You know what is interesting with this … nobody ever considers heavy metal toxicity .. heavy metals also accumulate in the hair. Why people do hair testing. My hair can never withstand bleaching very well and I have naturally thick hair with different texture .. some Normal and other strands are extremely course.
ممتاز شعرك جميل والحنا له فوائد كبيرة جداً شكراً لك 🌹🌸😍
thank you after year or two searching I definately have the information I needed
Hi Monika, a lot more thorough info you may find on my blog: www.beautiliciousdelights.com.
BeautyFoodTips thanks! I'll check it out !
BeautyFoodTips love your video. Have a question for you. Should I put a small spoon of coffee? My hair are light brown. Thank you
Great video. I did the henna with the indigo mixed together to color my gray hair and after 4 hours not a single strand of hair was colored very disappointing, now I am trying the henna by itself first and then I will try the indigo on its own to see if it works.
Hi +mellasone, it all depends on the quality of the herbal hair colors you're using..
+BeautyFoodTips I just did the henna first left it for 4 hours it turned gray hairs orange then I applied indigo left it on for 2 hours and wow all my grays turned dark brown, really amazing my hair looks thicker, shinnier than ever, the only problem is that the indigo gives me blue fingers every time I do my hair, it looks like I needed to shampoo to get it all off, what is your opinion on this.
+mellasone indigo will wash out the first 2-3 times you wash your hair, then no more blue fingers ;)
+BeautyFoodTips thank you very much for your reply, blessings
I love your channel. Thank you for sharing these. :)
Many thanks for sharing this video nd one of the best ive watch very informative 👍😊
I am a swimmer and the chlorine is brutal on my hair.. How often would you suggest me having to dye my hair with henna and what other precautions can I take to somewhat preserve the color..
Thank you in advance
I am swimmer too, and the indigo just pours out of my hair...embarrassing.
Hello Rozalia, thank you for this wonderful video. Would you please share how much henna, cassia and indigo you used to make paste of henna. Pls. reply.
love this tutorial i will try it
Martha Guevara If you have any doubts, pls feel free to ask :))
you dont have to use henna first,so the henna and indigo bind to a base,because indigo binds to henna and henna binds to the hair,and if not you can use henna 1 part and indigo 3 parts the first time you use them,thanks
Hello
Thank you for such a lovely explication of henné n I simply love henné. Now I use only henné products. I just wander if one can highlight though I have 40 percent of grey hair, and how to do it. I hope to get an answer from u if you could spare a few minutes.
Thank you😄
Hi Zarina Bouyer Well, you should already have some highlights due to your percentage of gray hair..I sure do, also because I have twice your percentage :)) Henna or the other herbal hair colors cannot highlight the hair, but you should note a light difference between your gray hairs and the non gray hairs..when you dye them they with henna they have different shades in the sun, don't they? :)
also what are the exact quantities and colours you used to get your exact colour please
Do we need to soak henna and indigo together overnight before applying it to hair? I want to achieve dark brown colour
I am sorry I only reply now +Kalyan Vishnubhatla, but youtube notifications did not work well in the past months. No, you don't have to soak henna, nor indigo or katam..just apply them on your hair as soon as you mix them. I hope this helps :))
Your hair color is absolutely beautiful what were the measurements that you put in the bowl? I couldn’t follow the scale it went very fast
great video! I really dislike the hinna's orange color, but the mix you made is so beautiful and your hair looks healthy too.
I have curly hair and usually hinna makes my hair soft and shiny. but I once used katam long ago and I noticed that my hair got so dry and unhealthy. that's why i stopped.
is your hair naturally soft? maybe that's why it wasn't effected.
cause my hair is already damaged from hair dyes and as much as my hair likes hinna, i don't like the smell or the orange color.
which is really bad since I am still young and i had premature grays since i was 13!
Thanks for sharing, very informative.
Thank you so much for all your materials on henna! It is very very helpful! I have a question regarding covering grey hair roots with henna. Is there a special technique or tips how you do this? For some reason when I cover roots by myself it is always a mess and I finally colour all my hair, which is not right :) Thank you!
Hi Tanya Topchiy , thank you for stopping by. All of my tips have been shared in this video and the 2nd one, available here : czcams.com/video/nvFqxgzz2sY/video.html. Also make sure to check also the dedicated blog post : www.beautiliciousdelights.com/blogs/news/19085463-capelli-bianchi-precoci-coprili-naturalmente-con-lhenne-e-le-erbe-tintorie. I am pretty much sure that in time you will obtain great results :)
Hi, Thank you very much for all the information it looks really useful and I'm now ready to use henna for the first time. Please could you tell me a little more about the rinsing with vinegar that you mention near the end of the video? Does it matter what sort of vinegar and should the vinegar be diluted at all? Should I rinse the vinegar out with water immediately or leave it on for a few minutes? Also, I have bought some sidr. When would be the best time to use this after I dye my hair for the first time? Many thanks again :)
Hi Rachel Edwards , glad you reached out to me! Keep in mind that apple vinegar has a less strong scent than the other vinegars on the market. It absolutely has to be diluted, 1 spoon for 1l of cold water...use it as the last rinse on your hair, don't use othe water to rinse this mix off..You may use sidr instead of the shampoo to rinse away the henna treatment...but be prepared as it won't foam and it's not that easy to use, but the results are worth ;) Should you have other doubts make sure to check also my dedicated blog post: www.beautiliciousdelights.com/blogs/news/19101851-vademecum-erbe-tintorie-ed-henne-lawsonia-inermis! Much love and happy henna! :)) Rozalia
Bellissimo il tuo assistente-parrucchiere! ;) BTW, interessante davvero questo video, ero convinta che non fosse possibile ottenere un colore diverso dal solito rosso! Anche io tingo i capelli ormai da molti anni e mi piacerebbe provare, ma mi spaventa un po' anche per via del mio colore attuale....
Your hair is gorgeous :)
thank you sweetfairyish ..you are too kind :))
Jax Gatewood I can share with you what I think about it if you post also the ingredients list..I don't know this brand. Usually henna has to be left on for 4-6 hours to cover the grey hairs ;)
Great video, but I would like to know is it always you apply henna, wash it and than apply Indigo? or you can start with indigo first, wash it and than apply henna. And for how long you leave the indigo sit on your hair?
Laura Ti Hi Laura, as I say in my video, I usually apply a mix of the 3 herbal hair powders. If you have grey hair and wish to obtain a dark brown / black color you should first apply lawsonia, and only afterwards indigo. You have to let them sit at least 4 hours :)
Very well detailed video. Few questions for you. I have dark ends with 30 to 40 Grey on the top, what do I use to get your color.? You mixed like 3-4 types of henna. What are those shades. Another thing, I didn't understand, did you just wash your henna with water, do you oil it later to set the color on the hair?
I have been using regular henna to cover grey which gives orange color. Nxxt day I use indigo to achieve dark shade . It takes a lot of time and energy get the color I want. Yours is one step process.
Beautiful hair
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. What do you recommend to do about the gray hair between touch ups. I have dark hair and if I wait 3-4 weeks to color my hair, the gray is very noticeable (it is noticeable after 5 days). I have about 30-40 % gray. I know that if I color every week it gets too dark. Thank you!
Same problem I have. I only touch up the roots 1-2cm, never go over the whole hair! Still I would like to have light brown, but it does not cover gray, it turns out red instead. So only dark brown covers gray successfully so far.
You are so beautiful :). Thank you so much for the video. So far, I have only a few white hairs but they are very obvious against the rest of my dark brown hair. I want to try this on the white strands but I must admit I am still intimidated to try as I have never used dyes of any kind before. It seems so difficult. I wanted to ask if it is safe to use henna while I'm pregnant, or should I wait until after my pregnancy?
Thank you BriarRose for reaching out to me. I warmly advise you to check this blog post with the most frequent questions I've been asked about herbal hair colors: www.beautiliciousdelights.com/blogs/news/19101851-vademecum-erbe-tintorie-ed-henne-lawsonia-inermis. I'm sure it will help you feel more secure to start using them. You'll also find the answer as far as it concerns the pregnancy, but to make a long story short...herbal hair colors have no contraindications for pregnant women, while chemical dyes..unfortunately do. Hugs, Rozalia
I just found your channel and have subscribed! I really love your videos, your personality and your style. Thank you so much for sharing!
thank you nicip79 for dedicating time out of your day to watch my videos. I'm happy you enjoy them! much love, Rozalia
Hello, I have a black hair w/ gray hair, maybe 40 to 50 % already, I want to cover up my gray hair but its a long process of making Henna paste first then after it the Indigo. I just want to ask, could i just used one preparation. Can i just mixed Henna & Indigo together..? I don't know how much Henna & Indigo should i used. I have a shoulder length thin hair. My second questions, Is it okay if I used only an Indigo powder just to cover up my gray hair ...? I have also hairloss, do you think it would not damage more my hair...? I appreciate it so much if you could spare me an advice of how to color my hair perfectly. Thank you.
what did you use to hold the color in.... what did you use to rinse your hair.... I could not make it out on the video..... thank you so much for this video
Grazie per questo interessante video!io volevo portare i miei capelli dal mio colore nerissimo ad un rosso(lo so che è molto difficile) nella preparazione dell'intrulio uso molto henne e lo lascio ossidare una notte con limone o aceto.non aggiunto ne katam ne indigo.. Dici che in ogni caso è meglio utilizzare solo acqua tiepida?
Ciao Elisa Volpi, devi provare e vedere se noti la differenza. Io non ho mai aggiunto altro a parte l'acqua calda ed i risultati sono sempre stati più che soddisfacenti. Se vuoi riflessi rossi, direi che è ottima la tua tattica, evita di aggiungere katam o indigo perché non farebbero che scurirti l'attuale colore. Per dei riflessi rossi potrebbe aiutarti anche la robbia, da aggiungere nel tuo mix :)
Love this video and all the information in it. I'm just wondering what is the difference between the two types of henna you mentioned?
Glad you liked it 97grad :) to which henna types are you referring to? :) I'm confused..
You mentioned 3 products to mix together, one is indigo. I'm talking about the other two, the lawsonia inermis and cassia obovata. I thought these were different types of henna.
Hi 97grad there's some confusion going on :)) actually you may call henna only the lawsonia inermis plant..the other 2 or 3 are different plants :) Pls check also my blog post : www.beautiliciousdelights.com/blogs/news/19101851-vademecum-erbe-tintorie-ed-henne-lawsonia-inermis maybe it will help you get more clarity on the subject. In the video I make it pretty clear ( I think :)) which are the differences between the 3 types of plant powders I use to get my brown color :)) love, Rozalia
i'm gonna using henna to reach burgundy color by mixing henna with beetroot juicy , i have black hair and this is the first time i use it, after mixing both of it, should i apply it immediately like what you show in video or leave it for many hours before using it , sorry for my English, hope ur soon reply
Saluti Rosalia! I really liked this video as I m thinking about dying my hair with henna. I don t have any white hairs yet (yay!), i just wanted to try something a little different with my hair as i ve never coloured it before. My question is how long would the colour stay on my hair.. If i didnt like the result how could i get it out without damaging my hair.. Grazie mile!
Hello the tip too add 5% amla to my 85 % indigo & 10% henna + tsp salt fixed the problem of my jet black color fading now it's staying in much longer many thnx, but i have another problem the henna on my grey roots keeps fading faster and faster even before a week has passed ! How do i fix this problem I used BAQ henna, hot distilled water, tea or lemon juice or aloe vera juice because the stain is darker because of the acid and let it dye release for 5 hours and sleep in it overnight and rinse with water deep condition to moisturize the hair style and air dry I don't know what i'm doing wrong ?? Do you perhaps have an answer ??
hi i am told to use amla as well to get dark brown hair
Love your vid. I noticed some henna strands in your hair looked like highlights, can we expect this too or did you earlier highlight it? Did you use lemon to bleach some strands first?
It says it would be best not to shampoo your hair after treatment but that you can rinse your hair with ______ Vanguard(?) in the end. The closed caption doesn't spell it a word that makes sense in English though this is an English-speaking video.
I don't have a hair basin. I have a shower hose. You say dunking my hair in something to get rid of all the particles out of my hair? Dunk then rinse? Dunk is rinsing? Then don't wash for how long and use what afterwards? Sorry captioning isn't getting all of the words in English. Ring or Bun settling water to get rid of all the plant particles by dunk it in a pail of water and rinsing in the utility sink In so sorry but again captioning says something about doing something to your hair and then dunking it in a pail of water and rinsing it in the basin.
How about this: I've waited 4 hrs. Nite next step is ______ your hair and dunk it in a pail of water and rinse it in the basin. I don't have a pail to dunk it. As I said above I hand a spray hose in my bath tub. What temperature should the rinsing water be? Warm cool or as warm as usual or tepid? Thank and again I'm sorry...
I have black hair and have lots of grey hair but when I use henna powder my grey hair turn red orange color. I would like to turn my red orange hair color turn black or dark brown what should I do? How hunch henna powder and how much indigo powder and katam powder should I use plz tell me?
Hi! Thanks for the nice video, I tried your products. I mixed 50 and 50 (4-6 hours) but still it didn't cover my gray hair (only change to orange color) I had to apply a second time with more indigo to cover the orange color. What can I do to do it only once and not twice. I love your hair :)
Hi Ursula, I get you say you are a client of our online store but in our database there is no Ursula at the moment..nevertheless the orange color you got is due to the percentages you used in your mix and to how much colour your grey is able to absorb..Just vary the percentages and you'll obtain great results with just 1 application ;)
Hi! I am so glad I found this! I need to switch to natural because of health issues and my hair is thinning badly. I love your color. Can you tell me what the formula is for your color? It is exactly what I want! I noticed you used three different henna powders. Do you mind telling me your mixture? And do they sell all three on the website or do they have colors already mixed?
Hi Terri, I spoke about the percentages I use in my mix here: czcams.com/video/Ox0iwIpmDJ4/video.html ( the video is in italian but there are english subs available). You may find a lot more thorough info on my blog (others videos included as well) : www.beautiliciousdelights.com
Thanks so much for the reply. i did wash my hair with soapnut shampoo and used mild conditioner, now my hair is soft but i see that the black colour of indigo has completely gone and all my grey hairs have turned red. i washed my hair after 3 days of applying henna+ indigo color. Should i wait for more days before i wash my hair? also how frequently can i apply the henna+indigo color. i liked it better when my hair was almost black before the indigo was washed away
oh I see...Sandhya Gopal. 3 days is ok..you may try waiting some more time to see if it makes a difference. You may apply the herbal hair colors as often as you'd like, there are no downsides if not eventually drying a little bit your lengths...but if you're applying it only on the regrowths where you have the grey you won't have this downside..
How can I get Karam and the other ingredient ? I can buy henna powder in the indian store but don't know where to get the other two. Any help? I live in Toronto.
Hi Lincy John, you may find the 3 herbal hair colors here: www.beautiliciousdelights.com/collections/cura-dei-capelli :)
Great video, thank you!
Hi, I loved your video and I tried, gave excellent result!!!
However, I have a question, in regards to washing out process? I loved your accent, however, didn't catch exactly what you said at the end to WASH hair out with?
Is it vinegar?
Please, let me know, with what to WASH hair with, because, that part is left unclear to me, since I rinsed it with simple water, n I still have green colour coming in my comb n on ✋!!!
🙏🙏 From India!!!
vinegar :))
Ciao! trovo il tuo video molto utile. io dopo 6 anni di henne ho smesso e provato le tinte chimiche e a giugno ho fatto lo shatush 😯da settembre sono ritornata alla mia amata henne ma faccio un mix biondo con lawsonia e rabarbaro che tinte i miei capelli bianchi di biondo -rame. sono molto soddisfatta ma vorrei provare il katam per scurire le lunghezze decolorate e ormai rosso arancio che non mi donano affatto 😢
spero di trovarlo in giro. buone feste 😄
Ciao +Enza Px, per qualche mistero di CZcams vedo solo ora il tuo commento O_O.. Baci e a presto, Rozalia. P.s.
Il katam lo trovi qui: www.curavisoecapelli.it/collections/cura-dei-capelli/products/henne-nero-katam-buxus-dioica-tinta-naturale-capelli
hi, great video but i just have one question to make sure i understood correctly. In order to cover grey hairs you need to apply a cover of red henna, let it set and rinse then apply the indigo after and repeat? In your video you mixed the 3 colours, therefore can i just avoid the 2 steps? thank you x
I just watched your other video and my question was answered there! :) Henna Hair Dye: F.A.Q on how to dye your hair naturally with black henna, red henna & cassia obovata
Hello Rozalia,
In your video, you said to go to your beautyfood tips.com to get further details on the percentage you used for the mixing of the henna. I went into your blog but I couldn't find it. I was so inspired by your success of using henna that I just ordered henna for the first time from the site you mentioned. Could you please share with me how much you used? I want my grey to be dark brown. I have natural dark brown hair. About half of my hair is grey now. Thank you!!
Hi kangsmn, I am glad you're ready to give henna a go. I'm pretty much sure you'll fall in love. I did share on my blog the percentages of henna I use. Check it here: bit.ly/HennaDye. Copy - paste from my post on the blog: "I use a 25% cassia obovata, 25% lawsonia inermis and 50% katam to cover my grey roots while on my ends I lower the percentage of lawsonia inermis as the ends are already dyed". I did not provided exact grams of henna because that actually depends on how thick & long your hair is. Keep in mind that you'll have to personalize the above percentages according to your natural hair color. Let me know if I can be of further help. Much love, Rozalia
You are lovely, and the video is very nicely done. I have hair similar to yours and am very excited to see someone having such great results covering gray with henna! My hair is fine and low porosity. How would you describe your hair type? I might try your "recipe" on my own hair, and think this might be good to factor in. (I understand this is an older post, so you may not respond... but who knows? :)
I am excited to have an all natural, chemical free option. Thanks for the great video!
I love the color that henna plus indigo gives to my grey hair however I have become allergic to Indigo, it gives me a horrible itch in the scalp and red blotches to any part of my skin that the indigo touches such as the neck and forehead. I'm looking for Katam everywhere but there is none available worldwide at the moment.
it is available at www.beautiliciousdelights.com/collections/cura-dei-capelli
contact me
You're amazing. These videos are fantastic. Do you have an Etsy page?
Hi Kelly, I have a blog: www.beautiliciousdelights.com ;)
I love the cute cat! Now I have to get me some henna!
:))
I have gray hair. I am a blonde. I haven't used chemical dyes on my hair in over 3 months. I want to use a safe natural dye.I have very light, blonde hair. Looks white especially with the gray coming in. I have read that blondes can use cassia obovata. I would like your opinion. Do you have any suggestions for blondes. I don't mind going a darker color. I don't really want the orange strawberry blonde with Henna. Would love some help. Thank you.
Hi monica joy, you may try using cassia but remember that cassia does not dye or cover grey hair. The only 100% natural hair dye is lawsonia and the shades on grey hair after application are orange / reddish.
Dark haired blondes use cassia mixed with katam to obtain a dark blonde color. Katam on grey hair results in a greyish shade. In case you decide to go for this I strongly recommend you first make some trials on some hidden strands of hair or hair from your comb. I am sorry I cannot be of more help, but blonde ladies do not have as much choice when going natural :(. If you need other suggestions, pls feel free to reply. Hugs, Rozalia
Thank you for your video. You mentioned in the end of the video that you wash your hair with nature shampoo, I didn’t get the name of it. Can you please list the name of the nature shampoo and condition that you use and do you use soap nut with shampoo or alone?
Thank you for your help
Hi nadia adams! You will find all the details about the homemade soap nuts shampoo over here: bit.ly/HomemadeSoapNutshampoo. I hope this will be of help! Happy Sunday! :*
I have sinus problem.so using henna increases my sinus problem.pls tell me alternate plant for my hair instead of henna
Hi Sai Thirumaran, I do not think that henna is the problem :) The problem is having to keep the humid henna treatment on your hair for a long time which certainly does not help your sinus problem. Unfortunately I am not aware of any other plant that would require less time to dye your hair naturally...it would be a lot easier for all of us if it existed :))
How long does the color stay? And how often do you have to do this
Leave this 4-6 hours.. So long, won't it dry and damage break the hair? Do reply pls
Hi,
Thanks a lot for the recipe. I would like to apply it to my mom.
Would you please remind me the ingredients?
1. katam
2. Red henna
3. ?
Are those just the ingredients? or did I miss one of them.
Thanks again :)
Hi AAA A , the herbal hair colors I use are lawsonia (red henna), katam and cassia obovata (neutral henna). You're welcome :)
Thanks a lot :)
Hi, can u suggest any brands fr these three ..red henna,katam,natural henna..pls suggest me ..
Hi thx for the video..my hair is dyed and so m7ch damaged..color now is light brown..i live in Egypt ..can u tell me where I can buy the henna that achive light brown color?..and is it ok to dye it with henna while it is already chemicaly dyed?...my hair condition is depressing me and I need to get more healthy and thicker hair...plz answer me..thank you in advance
Hi Dalia Ismail pls watch attentively my video, you've got all the answers there...I tell you that I also dyed my hair 1 week after I dyed it..it all depends on the quality of henna you get (whether it's pure or not..)
Hi Rozalia, this is a really well thought out and informative video, thank you. But can I ask your advice please? I'm a guy with mousey brown (light ash brown) with hair with about 10% grey hairs. I would like to try and create my natural colour (and cover my greys) using henna, without gresulting in any red or blue tones, is this possible? if so, could you tell me how? Many thanks ! Ben
Hi Ben, it's more than possible..you just have to find the right mix for your hair. You have a low percentage of white hairs hence it should result even easier. On my blog: www.beautiliciousdelights.com you may find lots of detailed articles on how to achieve it.
What percentage of henna and indigo did you use to get your color? Thanks
It is beautiful!!
Actually in the blog post I share the exact percentages I use of each herbal hair color
Has anyone tried this with adding milk to the powders instead of water? I heard the henna can dry out your hair (like she says also) but the milk helps condition it
Hi Lauren Hayes, there are lots of "ideas" of how to best condition and prevent the hair from drying out. I recommend not adding anything to avoid that the colour may not release at its best. This does not mean you cannot give it a try and see how & if it works out for you :) Thank you for stopping by :)
I have not dyed my hair in 7 months and I would like to dye my now dark brown hair a black color as you mentioned in the video. But I would like to know if I would get a red tint if I used the henna mixture for black hair because I love the idea of black/ very dark hair with a reddish tint/ undertone to it, but if not, is there anyway to get the results I want?
Hi Dannynix usually people would like to avoid the red shades :)) But using lawsonia you are certain your hair WILL have reddish undertones as the black mix you obtain (usually using the 2 step process) is made up of katam and lawsonia :)
***** Great :D ,thank you for replying so quickly :)
just Burgundy which is bit of red color
Hi, Rozalia. How did you transition your hair from commercial dyes to henna? I am 90% gray and using Goldwell 6N. I would like to transition to henna but don't know how.
Hi Grubby Newton , actually the most important thing in the transition is to make sure your henna is 100% pure so that the risk to end up with green hair is equal to zero. I applied my first henna treatment after 2 weeks from my last commercial dye. Nothing bad happened as my henna was 100% pure therefore the result was a nice chestnut..obviously the first months there were some differences between my roots and the lengths, but in time the difference was covered. Hope this helps, take care! :)) Rozalia
Thank you very much!
Hi. I’ve been using henna for about four yrs.. but lately my hairs been breaking!... anything I could do different?

And also can you tell me the amounts I have to use of each to mix the right consistency thank you so much x
Traci Hi Traci, I've replied to your email as well. As for the percentages you should use, pls check out this blog post: www.beautiliciousdelights.com/blogs/news/19101851-lhenne-lawsonia-inermis-e-le-tinte-naturali-19-cose-da-sapere-prima-di-colorarti-i-capelli
wowwww... lovely info.thanks a ton...!!! I've used henna alone before but I didn't like the orange tint tht was on my hair.. specifically roots. so I started using hair color n I think its damaging my hair I'm thinking to go natural with henna n indigo. but how often do u use it as roots start to grow??
Btw I've subscribed n gonna see other videos :-*
:)) +Swati Rajput You may use it as soon as the regrowth can be seen...that means every 3-4 weeks..
+BeautyFoodTips but my hair grows faster n roots start to peek out after a week :-( Btw I'm loving u so much that I've been seeing ur videos all day..I appreciate the effort u take to make videos..all natural attitude of urs is impressive..love from India :-*
aww..thank you so so much..you're lucky then to have a fast regrowth :)) then you'd have to make them every 2 weeks, but your hair will love it as it will make it stronger & healthier :)
Hi! You said not to wash your hair after the henna is rinsed out! I didn't understand what you said to use instead of shampoo it sound like you said vinegar
Hi jh878745. It would be better if you can avoid using shampoo when rinsing out the herbal hair colors, but if one get itchy scalp after the application it would be better to use shampoo anyway :) You may use diluted vinegar to rinse.
Hello! This is a great tutorial. I'm used to the two step henna process. Is it correct that you're mixing the lawsonia (red) WITH the katam (indigo) for a one step process? Thanks!
+jax d yes, that's correct :)
wow! how interesting!
thank you!
