    Thank you so much for your enthusiastic and instructive videos. I have started using henna and indigo according to your instructions and I am very satisfied. I have a question, though, about something that is very confusing. From time to time, on the Internet, I find texts that say that henna was originally not used for making hair thicker and healthier, but quite the contrary - to make it thinner. The explanation is that Indian women have very thick hair, so as henna causes hair to fall out it helps them to make it thinner and more manageable. At first I discarded this idea as very stupid, but I would like to hear the answer from someone who really knows about the properties of henna and its use. Thanks!

    Hi i have been watching your videos that encouraged me to dye my grey hair with heena and indigo powder in two step treatment . I have applied this method 3 times and found out I have stubborn grey hair and indigo dye doesn't stick to my hair even after using heena as first step and washed out completely in first wash. I don't use any shampoo or conditioner even then indigo color wahed down completely leaving only heena color on the hair. Please advise what should I do,.
