: experimenting with on this forum that no one has mentioned beet
juice
: for burgundy henna? I used it many many years ago when I was
younger
: and wilder and got a superb shade of raspberry-to-burgundy. I am
: thinking of try it again to see if I can get my highlights a more
: garnet shade for the Spring. If anyone knows any reason why I
