: : . Guesstimate on how
: : much (for the actual henna-ing, not the test so much)??
: : :
: :
: Do you know something, I'm not sure. I didn't measure really but
: tried to work with proportions so I would know how to mix a much
: larger batch. I used roughly 3 teaspoons of henna, a half teaspoon
of
: cloves and as much red wine as was necessary to get the
consistency I
: wanted. So I suppose if I were to duplicate it in an actual mix, I
: would need roughly 100g henna (for my hair length) roughly 15g
clove
: powder, something like that? I guess you'll have to just
experiment
: with the test batch and keep track of what you use.
:
: I know Electra's mix on mixes page comes closest to mine minus the
: indigo she adds...I can't remember how much she used, check it out.
:
: oh also, I have no idea how much wine goes for in the states, but
I
: used a very cheap chilean merlot (that didn't taste so bad either,
: hee hee Might as well enjoy a glass while your hair is doing!

Had a friend inform me I could likely pick up a cheap bottle for
about $5 ... I can do that. And even if it is only cheap stuff, I
plan on having some. Wow..how adventuresome I will be, I've never
drank wine before either LOL Will just be a smidge though, as I
have a nursling ;) Anywhooo...
Thanks for your closest guesstimate there. I'll take another gander
at electra's hair info, see if she had any specifics, I don't
remember either, just remember I liked her hair ;)

TY
