: Is it better to mix a little Indigo into the Henna mixture when
: applying in order to get a browner shade of red or would strong
: cofee, tamarind, red wine etc work better?
indigo works better.

: Also is henna safe to use
: on other body hair so the carpet matches the drapes so to speak
: (sorry but I like to match,lol)?
yes, but I think it would be wise to be careful with essential oils? I
once used a mix with cloves on the, erm, carpet, and that was mightily
irritating to the thinner skin parts. not a good idea.

: One more question, for root growth
: do you do touch ups or whole head application?
I do root touch ups most of the time, but you can also do whole head
application. it doesn't hurt if you do your whole head, but the indigo
may build up over time.

good luck!
