Hi Nell

My one question to you is: why even consider dying your hair with
chemical commercial dyes in the first place?
Nell, I went down that road--dying my hair with a chemical dye, I
mean. Don't make my mistake. After dying my hair, the rate at which
my hair grows actually slowed down (I could tell by counting the
weeks the roots were beginning to show), and the new hair was
slightly THINNER than the ones before dying.

All chemical dyes contain ammonia AND hydrogen peroxide, even the
ones that claim to be "all-natural" on the cover--otherwise they
wouldn't work at all!

Cassia Obovata (a.k.a. "Senna") is a neutral plant conditioner
(meaning it adds no color, and it does "coat" the hair, and may I
add that it's best hair "first-aid repair kit" out there next to
Henna?
It left my hair glossy and soft. it relfected more light afterwards
too. I hope I was helpful to you.
