As I started graying, chemical dyes started making my hair feel more coarse, so this was my experiment to try and get my hair back to its natural texture and still pretend to be a red head. Going on two years now of using this product exclusively. The specific mixture I use is half of a bag of Strawberry Blonde, 3 level tablespoons of Natural Red, and mix with warm water ONLY until it resembles brownie batter. I’d like to share some tips. First and foremost, this should only be applied to WET HAIR for best results. As with any coloring process, cover those roots thoroughly. Once applied, I wrap my whole head/neck hair/eyebrows with Press and Seal or cling wrap to let set. It only has to set for 30 minutes if your hair was wet to start. This stuff will not dye your hair if it dries. Keep it covered to keep it wet. Adding vinegar strips your hair. Don’t do it. (I did it.) Going forward, you’ll only have to add color to your roots. This red doesn’t fade. Look at my ends. They’re still a different shade of red from when I was experimenting two years ago. That being said, pick a color you’ll be happy to be stuck with for a long time. My grays are a brighter gingery red, and my light brown hair is a very natural shade of red. My hair feels way more healthy than it did with chemicals. I get lots of compliments about my “pretty red hair” and lots of questions about who I got my red hair from and if my kids got my red hair. It’s a hit!

This was my first time using Henna Maiden, and I would like to preface this review by saying I am absolutely delighted with this product! It's wonderful. First I'll give a brief background, and then I'll outline what needs to be done to have a successful go at using this product. I've also uploaded pictures.I'm a natural redhead, but now that I'm older I have a fair bit of grey, and need some help. Trying to maintain my natural red color that I grew up with has been expensive, as my hair is long, and my hair was paying for it as well because it grows quickly and the processing dried it out horribly. After a year my hair had the look and texture of hay, which was horrible and beyond remedy. After googling 'red hair' I stumbled upon this product. Now, why I had not heard of this before, I'll never know because I swear it's God's gift to redheads! It's affordable, beautiful, nourishing, it does not fade as other products (from what I've heard), and you can do it right at home - and it's ORGANIC! How can you beat that, right? So I did some research and gave it a go. Here is some pointers for you if you're a first timer like me. After doing this once, I realized very quickly exactly what needed to be done for a "better" or "easier" experience. So here goes...#1. AMOUNT: I have long hair down to my waist, but it's not as thick as it used to be. After reading reviews from others with long hair I decided to mix three packages of Henna Maiden Natural Radiant Red. I followed the directions explicitly. I will tell you that I had far more than needed and actually ended up wasting one third of it. So next time, I'll know better. For those of you with thicker hair, I would suggest the three packages.#2. MIXING: I did not add egg or oil. But I did use tea, which I have heard helps "set" the color or intensify it. I chose Earl Grey because it has a beautiful bergamot scent and a lovely color as well. Henna is an herb which smells very "green". It was not offensive to me at all! I actually found it quite therapeutic. But for those of you who want to cover that, then I suggest using the Earl Grey tea or essential oils. For the three packages I used FOUR CUPS of hot tea. This created a thick paste which resembled something you'd see in your infant's diaper. :)#3. PREP: Here's the key - you need to prep. I purchased the following before I applied the product:- a large inexpensive towel for wrapping my hair afterward - because the color does bleed immediately after.- petroleum jelly to line my hairline and cover my ears- a thick pair of rubber dish gloves (playtex). I do not suggest using the ones in the package as they split easily and are not form fitting.- celophane wrap or cling wrap to wrap your head. Again, I do not suggest using the shower cap in the package as it is quite thin and unstable.- an old t-shirt or two- small hair clips- large combNow that you have your items assembled, remove everything in your bathroom that would possibly be exposed to any potential dripping. Henna will stain on contact. I removed my bathroom rugs and towels, and items from my vanity as well.I began by separating my hair into segments. I know now that is an extremely imporant part of preparation. Because once your gloves are slathered in henna, separating and combing your hair for the next application will be virtually impossible. Therefore, as part of your prep, take the time to separate your hair into small segments all over your head with a small clip. I had washed my hair prior to application, and my hair was damp when I applied the product, which made it much more manageable.Take the petroleum jelly and go around your hairline with a good amount, including lathering your ears.#4. APPLICATION: Now that you have your hair prepped, begin applying the paste at the root working it in like you would a shampoo, and then draw it out gradually through the strands. The strands must be completely covered! Wrap that segment of hair to your head into a 'bun'. Apply a topcoat of paste to that bun. I suggest working at the front first so that hair is removed and you can clearly see what you're doing. Continue this process over the entire area of your head, wrapping the hair around that central 'bun'. When you're finished you should have all your hair secured to the top of your head. Then coat the entire head in henna paste. Once you've coated your head, begin wrapping your head in celophane. Leave no gaps.#5. PROCESSING: I allowed 2.5 hours for my hair. I found that to be more than enough time for the color I wanted. I washed my gloves carefully, donned them again, and began to unwrap my head. I made to sure to have a small trash bag at my side so I could safely discard the used celophane - because it can be a mess. Once my head was unwrapped I rinsed out the product with warm water by kneeling over the rim of my bathtub and dipping my head beneath the spigot. This worked perfectly, keeping all the runoff away from my face and other parts of my body. I allowed a good rinse for about 20 minutes. You'll find that there is a lot of bleeding and it took a long while before the water ran clear. Once it did, I washed my hair of any possible residue and applied a light conditioner. I used the special towel to wrap my hair and as expected, there was a significant amount of 'bleed'. Then I dried my hair.#6. RESULTS: The immediate results were shocking at first, I must say. For a bold personality such as mine, they had the ability to make me shy. :) The color was a bright orange (I used Radiant Natural Red). The color was extraordinarily intense and bright. Yet I held to hope that it would continue to do it's magic and IT DID. The next day I shampooed my hair again and I did not see a lot of color change until the SECOND FULL DAY. I will tell you that henna behaves much differently than conventional chemical dyes. The color turned a beautiful auburn that was absolutely stunning. I will tell you that I've received compliment after compliment from jealous women who were dying to know if that was my natural color. When I told them my secret they were stunned. (See photos) So if you use this product, please know that initially, the color can be extraordinarily bright and look a bit garish and gaudy. But by the second day it was absolutely GORGEOUS - precisely what I wanted. For those of you who are able - do it on a weekend. Process on Friday night and by Monday morning at the office, you'll be a knockout!#7. TEXTURE | MANAGABILITY: As for the texture of my hair, I am AMAZED. I've found that henna actually "healed" my hair. It no longer feels or looks like hay at all. It feels silky soft and it SHINES. Henna does make your hair feel thicker, because it does something to the shaft that is very therapeutic. So if you have fine hair (I have moderate - it is neither coarse or fine) you'll probably be thrilled with this benefit as well. My hair responded very well to a curling iron, and I am tickled pink at the results. Every one of my friends who have seen me since the process give an eye-popping "Wow!!!" with a huge smile. They've said, "I LOVE your hair!!!" And they're amazed when I tell them what I've done.I hope this post if helpful to all of you who intend to use this product. As for me, dipping my head into chemicals every 6-8 weeks for a price tag of $100 + for the rest of my life was no longer an option for me for numerous reasons (cost, chemical exposure, etc.). This procuct is a God-send and I will NEVER go back. I will have you know that I'm well stocked. :) I hope you try it and find the results to be just as GLORIOUS as I did!DON'T FORGET TO VIEW MY PHOTOS! Cheers!

My hair used to be a naturally auburn color with various shades of copper highlights. Prior to highlighting my hair, hair stylists always asked me if I colored it because they wanted to get the secret. It made me curious as to what I'd look like with other colors so I highlighted my hair 3 years ago for the first time. Since then, my hair has gotten to be duller and lost all of its original color so that the top of my head has just gone gray. Even the few bright white strands that I'd occasionally have, changed and are now a dirty gray. I thought I could just stop getting my hair highlighted and go back to my natural color but apparently the chemicals have ruined my hair. At this point, I can't imagine going back to color-free hair.The "BEFORE HENNA" Pictures are right before I henna'ed my hair. The outgrowth is about an inch on top and is 3 months' worth. It started growing out within 2 weeks of spending 5 hours in the salon and paying $185.00. Then, I broke my foot (hence the 3 months of no color).My "AFTER HENNA" Pictures are immediately after I henna'ed my hair on Day #1 (after blow-drying). The gray that was covered (on top) looks pretty close to my natural auburnish hair that I had prior to highlighting and coloring my hair. The rest is somewhat dark but I think it will look more natural once the henna has actually been shampooed out.How I did it: I mixed one packet of the "Auburn" color and put it all over my dry hair. Then, I wrapped it up in plastic wrap for 2 hours. I started at 8:00 am and rinsed it out at 10:30 am. It took me about 25 minutes of rinsing in warm water and I "washed" it 3 times with conditioner. I kept rinsing until I was out of warm water. There is still some henna in there but my 30 gallon water heater said it was time to quit - I couldn't get any more color out with the cold water. After blow-drying my hair, it lightened up a bit. I was worried, at first, because my hair looked way too dark.Here are some notes if you are on the fence about trying this ...Smell - It isn't too bad - there's a smell of hay that should go away once it's washed with shampoo.Mess - Clean up as you go and there'll be less chance of staining anything. Use old rags and towels so you don't ruin your good ones.Time - This was quicker and easier than setting up an appointment at the salon, driving there, and sitting in a chair (for 5 hours) with my hairdresser. The henna process only took me 3 1/2 hours and I'm sure it'll go quicker next time.Cost - Henna is soooo much cheaper than paying $185.00 per salon visit every 2 weeks!!!Experience - I've never attempted to color my own hair for fear of messing it up but this was easy! I'm glad I took a chance on this!Look of My Hair - This is probably the closest I've been to my "real" hair color since I began highlighting and coloring my hair 3 years ago.Precaution - To put my mind at ease a little, I purchased 2 Auburn and 2 Medium Brown Packets. My thinking was that if the auburn didn't turn out (or the gray didn't get covered enough), I could go back over it with a medium brown - or a mixture of the auburn and brown. Turns out, I didn't have to, but ... you may want to cover your bases and get a couple of colors that you could use (or mix up together) to come the closest to the color of your liking.Overall, I'd recommend trying Henna Maiden Auburn!
