does this work for henna?

If your henna mix is no thicker than Elmer's glue, I can't see why it wouldn't work. But I haven't tried it with henna. So why don't you get one, try it with henna and then post a review to help others?

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

I can't answer this positively, but based on another answer that the henna color came back sounds like it did work. I had to do the whole process a total of three times to remove all the dye from my hair. The first two times the color did come back after a few days, but the third time was the charm and the dark color dye did not return. You do have to follow all directions as stated to make this work. Again I used this on permanent hair dye and not henna. Good luck.

I think this is the perfect product to test out a black tattoo. The color turns to a blue/black (cool, not warm) color and is quite saturated for a henna application. Good luck!

Hello. You have to purchase the henna separately. I recommend Jamila BAQ henna. I hope this helps. : )

I haven't tried this on eyebrows but I'm sure you could use it but you can use what you need reseal any unused product. But byer beware I used this because the instructions say it washes out within 8 weeks it is wrong it is completely permanent and you can not use permanent hair dye on the hair until the Henna has grown out! Wish I woulda known this before I used it!

Hi, fortunately because henna is a 100% natural product, it can be used as often as you need. It could be used 2 times in the same day if you wanted :)

Just as it says in the product insert, it does not work on henna, and it does not work on non-oxidative color.

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 have long blonde/light brown and have never used henna. But, this definitely worked immediately for brassiness from highlights. It also made my hair feel healthier, which surprised me.

I don't see why not. The color may come out differently then what you are wanting. I would go into a salon and let them know you have been using henna and want to color your hair with something else. Is that what you were asking?

Yes it is. Surya Henna is semi-permanent, coating the hair with plant-based dyes. I was using Herbatint for years and immediately switched over to Surya with no problems whatsoever. Be sure to fully coat the hair and wait the recommend time, especially for gray hair, to be sure you get adequate coverage.

The chemicals are strong enough to remove the heavy calcium and other minerals in our water, so it might remove henna. I don't color treat, but my natural color is clearer and brighter after I wash.

Yes! I mix lemon juice with henna (40 g for short hair), let it sit overnight, then in the morning just before applying it, I add 40 g indigo with warm water to the mixture. The color turns out dark brown with a tint of red. My hair is naturally medium/dark brown. It works great!

It will work only if you currently have Henna on your hair, and not traditional hair dye. I wouldn't recommend having the two different applications on your hair at the same time. I was warned by a hair dresser years ago that Henna should be placed on virgin hair and not hair previously dyed with regular hair dye. You can put Henna on Henna, but not Henna on chemical hair dye. Henna coats your hair with color...traditional hair dye penetrates the hair shaft. They work differently. BUT to answer your question, if you currently have Henna or virgin hair, YOU CAN USE Lustrous Henna to touch up your roots.

This product is supposed to be tattoo grade henna, however I have only used it on my hair.

The quick answer I have is that it depends on two things: what color your hair is now, & how you prepare the henna. I highly recommend the techniques in this free henna book pdf.(maybe skip the first part which is history, the good stuff is a little ways down) http://www.hennaforhair.com/freebooks/hennaforhair.pdf I have used the technique twice now and am not at all disappointed like I have been with past hennas where I just boiled the water etc... Anyway, they will show you before and after pics of different types and colors of hair which helps a lot! Plus the lemon juice overnight thing works so well, my hair has stayed so well since I did it with this Silk and Stone (but I did a mix cus I have dark hair and wanted more dark auburn) I still get compliments, so this particular powder should do you very well assuming you use a good technique. Hope it helps you as much as it helped me =)
