color,

Hi, Lilly,
I learned quite a lot from reading the exchanges between Tracey and
Valerie further down, as well as the rest of this site. If you have
not yet consulted the Mixes section, that may help you, too. Have
you harvested some hair from your hairbrush and tried the henna over
that? That will be safest before proceeding to a whole headful you
may hate, if the henna abreacts with whatever chemicals you've got in
your hair.
