Thank you for you responses!

It's not for me it is for my mother who is a natural dark brunette
with red glints in the sun. But has been mangling and mutilating
her hair for I would say over 40 years, with Dark brown -Black
ppd dyes.

She has finally recently allowed me to henna her hair on a visit
here. I figured if she liked it, henna is straightforward enough for
her to continue using it, I mixed it up let it sit under a cap a few
hours. It was gorgeous! I have never seen her hair that healthy!

She is probably about 50-70% grey, but you only see that in the
roots as her dye grows out.

She is dyeing her hair or years, so the strands were dark, it is
always redder in the roots. Now that I hennaed it, that was finally
more blended. But I could not believe how the henna took
beautifully to the dyed brown!

She went home and after a couple of weeks the grey in the
hairline faded quickly! And her friends told her it was too red. So
being a true brunette, she wants to see it somewhat browner,
can't get used to RED, but also cannot go back to dark dyed
brown! That's too harsh for her now .

I do not want to add cool or ash tones. Just brown it down, but
still to have red in the sun, and auburn inside, like her virgen hair
had. She is not an ash! So I am thinking indigo is too ash with
the red. She would want it consistently the color she is going for.

She is very frustrated and wants a touch-up, but she lives far. I
am trying to tell her what to use. She is not a detailed mixes
type! She is a hairdresser, that you mix and squeeze bottle it! No
frills mix and go would be best.

Does anyone have anything good to say about Light Mountain all
natural (but they premix it for you) hennas??
Thanx-ahead-of-time!

Love & Light, Tee
