Have you used color henna by Light Mountain

[mrshicks2002]

I am thinking about changing my hair color to a nice brown or auburn.

Have you used this brand before, what color and did you like the outcome once finished?

Come on Henna ladies where are you?

You should probably stay away from henna that comes in a variety of colors. Try Henna Sooq or that Catherine lady from Mehandi.com.

Hey- Don't know if Black counts as color henna, but I used the Black this weekend. I did a strand test before I used it and all went well. I mixed the black with henna in a 50/50 mix, I'm really happy w/ the results. IMO Light Mountain is a good strore brand henna. The only thing I could say bad about Light Mountain is that I found their indigo to be a bit gritty, compared to the henna (Reshma) that was so silky it was like baby powder. Don't know if all indigo is grirtty 'cause that was the 1st time I had ever hennaed. The light mountain colors are just mixed by the company to achieve whatever the color. It's almost like they are trying to to take the guess work out of it for the consumer. I also called their customer service dept. They use only henna and or indigo or a combination thereof, they DO NOT ADD anything to it. Do your strand test with some harvested hair form a brush or comb. You'll be fine!

ETA: Since I have now fallen in love with henna and I don't brush. I have been saving and shed hair in a sandwich baggie just to use for future strand tests. HTH.

Thanks for the reply. When I first did my henna treatment I also used Reshma Henna and I love it, but just never have used the Henna Treatment for another color besides the red tone that henna produce or indigo.

Thanks for the idea about the shedded hair fo strand testing.

I have used the "Color You Grey" kit, by Light Mountain because it includes henna in one bag and indigo in the other.

You use it just like you would any other henna and indigo treatment.

The other kits, which do not cover grey, I have not used because they are premixed. I prefer the separate kits.

Thanks. Mehandi is the distributor for this company.

I just checked Mehandi.com and this company (http://www.mehndiskinart.com/henna_for_hair.htm) is not one of their trusted suppliers. How did you get to that link?

Thanks. I have regular henna, but I was just looking for a alternative to using a permanent hair color since henna doesnt have any chemicals or anything it in.
