: I tried a test w/henna from Catherine. I mixed it w/lemon juice, let: sit on the warm exterior of the freezer for 12 hours, added tea tree
: and lavender EO, divided into two test batches, one w/more lemon
: juice, the other w/coffee and cloves, mixed in hair and left for 3
: more hours on the freezer. The lemon batch was fairly light bright
: bozo orange :( The coffee/clove batch was darker, but still too
: orangey for me. Grey coverage looked very good for both batches.

12 hours in a warm place sounds like too long. The first time I hennaed
I left it overnight; but that was in winter, and the indoor temperature
was around 10 or 15. I put the mixing bowl in a pot of hot water
nowadays, and it's ready in an hour or two.
The first four times you henna gray hair, it will get darker each time. So
if you get Bozo color the first time, don't despair.
