Real People's Henna Mixes

More coming soon!
Click on the pics below to see real pictures of real people who've hennaed their hair  ... and who tell exactly how they did it!

If you have a picture of hair dyed with henna, indigo, or other natural dyes, please send it in, with a description of exactly how you did it!  If you don't have a pic, try brushing your hair out on the scanner.  That works.  The more pictures and mixes we have, the more everybody will learn!  Send your picture and description to info@mehandi.com  To thank you, I'll send you (for free!) 200g of your choice of body art quality henna and/or indigo and/or cassia obovata!

People's Personal Mixes
If you want to adjust your mix, or just try a few new things, here things other people do.
Some of these mixes may seem very complicated, but the more you read, the more you'll see that a few very basic principles apply:

1) Everyone's hair is slightly different, and results vary.
2) Your natural hair color makes a big difference in the result.
3) The proportions of henna and indigo make a big difference in the result.
4) Other additives make little difference in the result.
5) You can completely cover gray hair if you keep trying.
6) Body art quality henna does a fantastic job.
7) You can use body art quality cassia, henna and indigo over perms, dye jobs and totally trashed out hair ~ safely!
8) Compound henna is trouble in a box.
9) The Quick Henna Mix Guide is simple, sensible, and reliable.
10) Apply henna and indigo THICK like whipped cream on desert.  More is better.
