I "read somewhere" that using a conditioner AFTER rinsing the henna
out helps to get out the little grainy stuff that's hard to get out
ordinarily. I usually wash my hair with a natural herbal shampoo,
then add some Suave herbal rinse. This helps remove the grains. My
hair feels more "seeled" than if I just rinse it without
conditioner. I think your idea is worth a try...but I think I
would "strand test" it first. My color lasts 8 weeks, but when I
have that pesky root line, I recolor the same way.
