Henna - oriental beauty recipe

Persistent warnings that hair dyes contain the most harmful ingredients among all cosmetic products made me think of a forgotten means for coloring and nourishing hair - this is henna.

Real henna is the powdered leaves of the henna plant (Lawsonia inermis), which is grown in many countries of North Africa and the Middle East. It contains plant pigments, resins and tannins that cover the hair and give it more volume, shine and fiery color. Interestingly, this herb also has an antifungal effect, so it is used in folk medicine as a remedy for various skin diseases, for example, dandruff. In other words, henna is a completely natural cosmetic product that has been used by women in the Arab world and India for thousands of years. As you know, they are famous for their luxurious hair.

However, many women are wary of henna, and there are good reasons for that. Unlike chemical dyes, which have a constant composition and an oxidizer, which guarantees an almost identical color specified in the catalog, the result of henna staining is strictly individual. First of all, this is directly related to the natural color of your hair, since plant pigments only enrich them to a fiery color, but cannot darken or lighten them. On the other hand, it matters in what climatic conditions the plant was grown. For example, Egyptian henna gives a softer shade, and Indian henna gives a rich red. In addition, the leaves growing on the tops of the bush are better in quality and give a richer color than the leaves at the base. But you won't be able to find this information on the packaging.

Of course, as a result, you may be dissatisfied with the resulting effect when using any dye. But in this case, there is always an option of salvation - to repaint, no matter how disastrous it may be for our hair. However, when it comes to henna, you will have to wait a few months, because the result is unpredictable.

However, this should not put you off henna. All your fears can be dispelled with just one preliminary test. To do this, you need to collect a few hairs from a comb or brush and dip them for 2-3 hours in a thick mixture of a small amount of henna and warm water. After you wash and dry them, you will see what result you will get on your hair.

In fact, the biggest risk when using henna is not to stumble upon a product with the addition of chemical dyes or metal salts, which can be more harmful than those contained in dyes. To do this, you need to know that natural henna has an earthy green color and a characteristic smell of dried grass. In addition, there is no black, lightening or discoloring henna. The color that can be achieved with the help of this plant is exclusively red. However, different shades of hair can be obtained in a completely natural way, combining henna with other herbs, for example, with hay (it is called colorless henna) to obtain golden shades, with indigo - for darker red tones, with amla - for light-haired, but in any case it should be indicated in the ingredients on the label.
