Does this specific henna have salt in it?

No. It appears to be 100% pure henna. Of course, I haven't tasted it. :-). Seriously, though, I have a keratin treatment in my hair, and salt would destroy it. It's held up for over three months, and I've hennaed my hair several times in between.

No, it's 100% pure henna powder. I use it to dye my hair; can't have any additives in the henna for that.

Yes it does, but you must make sure the henna is touching the hair completing. First time users grey will turn a bright orange color, so be careful, I liked it because it blends very well with my skin color.

I can't say absolutely but it shouldn't, unless it's naturally occurring. Real Salt is nothing but salt, unprocessed except for cleaning. There is nothing added to it, if that's what you want to know.

You've bought the wrong product. Henna (lawsonia inermis) ONLY colors hair in various shades of red, depending on your base color. It doesn't come in any other colors, will not lighten hair, and is permanent. On the other hand, you can mix henna with various herbs (i.e. indigo, cassia) to achieve various shades. What color were you going for?

No, I don't think so. The Henna would wash right off from the skin. It doesn't dye the skin.

I'm not sure henna is???? It removes calcium lime rust and chlorine from your hair that are in hard water

I believe all salt contains some iodine, but iodine is not "added" to this salt like in regular table salt.

none is added to it, as a natural salt it has a small bit, not enough to replace a low iodine issuebrett

No the product does not come with instructions. the color is determined by your natural hair color. For instance, my hair is 90% gray so this product turns my hair red. If you have dark brown or black hair the henna will give you auburn highlights. For more detailed information, check out curlynikki.com. She has detailed information about henna on her website.

My package says "Raw", and the ingredient list only mentions Sunflower Seeds. The nutrition information shows 0% sodium, and it definitely does not taste like it has any salt.

Unlike white table salt that has iodine added to it, Himalayan salt has iodine in it naturally along with many other minerals. See this article for more information: http://www.naturalnews.com/028724_Himalayan_salt_sea.html

Henna will stain hair and skin orange-red only. Depending on your base hair color and where the henna is from, you will get different red tones (with Rajasthani henna, my grays and silvers come out as burgundy highlights; on the rest of my hair it's deep auburn). If you mix the henna with quality indigo, you will not get as much of a red tone. Henna does dry the hair out the first two or three times, but I've found citric acid (can be purchased in bulk in many places) cuts down on that considerably. Use 3 grams for every 50 grams of henna.

I am unaware of any salt being used in this product. I have used this on my face as well as my hair and have seen great results. It's been over a year of using this product and I really have no complaints, its very thick so u have to use it sparingly but otherwise I love it.

I don't know why.. but this did not work on my henna (my henna was metal free as well). it looked like it worked for a few days but after I washed it for the first time after doing this process, it was back to the henna color.

Pure henna - Lawsonia Inermis - doesn't come in different shades. Because henna releases only one pigment (red!), it cannot lighten your hair and if your natural color is almost black, henna certainly isn't going to give you the same shade on the package. If this DOES happen, you're not using pure henna. And there's nothing wrong with that, if that's what you choose. I just don't want people to make a decision based on bad info. The eventual shade will depend on three things: your natural hair color, the liquid you use to mix your paste, and how long you leave it on your hair. Adding cassia will lighten the eventual shade, and adding indigo will darken your hair. Google is your friend, and it's best to get an idea of how it works and what it can and can't do before you commit. Good luck in your Henna Journey!

I didn't see any sodium in the ingredients when I first purchased it. I don't use salt except for baking and don't like it in my regular meals, so I'm pretty sensitive if a spice blend includes it (regardless of what they say on the label). I did not have the normal salt reaction when I taste it in food, so I would certainly believe it is low sodium. I cannot give you a definitive answer though.

I just finished up my last jar, have to purchase more. There is of course sodium in it, but it's not too bad. My dh had a heart attack about 3 years ago, so we are fairly careful with sodium content. Wish I could tell you exactly, but you perhaps can email to company ? I also have to say, the sauce is delicious.
