Hahaha, it's not that bad but I have to say my hair was thick to begin with
and now it's like a jungle up there... I can't even see a line when I try to part it!!!

After reading the other post on here, I was cautious with coloring it but today
I shot all caution in the wind and out came the henna and guess what???

NOTHING - no red, no green (this happened to me once before), absolutely
nothing!! Oh well... a little grey never hurt anyone!!

Heck, I love it!

    I'm so sorry that your efforts to change the color were not successful. Oh my! I'm sure you'll try again and will hopefully have better results. {{hugs}}

    Ayse .. Color yourself 'lucky' .. once I gather the
    nerve to color my hair (did not use henna product), my mistake - I ended up like Ms. Lucille Ball - from I LOVE Lucy. Naturally, I am dishwater dirty blond .. not ash blond, not dark blond .. so imagine my family and my surprise!!! I have wore this color - tried professional to tone the red down . . which worked for several weeks - semi perm. color //now I've had my hair professional darken (2nd time) ... oh, our virgin hair - or so I am told by many others - will adhere quickly to semi perm or perm color - henna not so much.

    I was told, our hair won't
    I was told, our hair won't grab the color sometimes. To tone down red, use green base. Like Ash blonde or Ash brown. Happy coloring right.
