    Henna mainly takes away dandruff and makes the scalp nice also it helps the hairs to be stronger so not any breakage will happen

    Question on Henna Mix??

    Hello Ladies

    recently I bought Hesh products, brahmi powder, Aritha powder and Shikakai powder.

    I wanted to make a paste of these three along with Henna. Does this help for preventing hair falling, greying and increasing the volume of the hair???

    should i mix anything else in this henna mix?? please suggest thanks:cheers

    Re: Iron pot for mixing Henna? how to do in USA?

    Hi Sujata,

    I used to get mehendi powder from india but ran out. So I started exploring mehendi kits availible in the US. I have been using the "Light Mountain Natural" Amazon.com: Light Mountain Natural Hair Color & Conditioner, Auburn, 4 oz (113 g) (Pack of 3): Health & Personal Care brand. This covers the grey. The mehendi from India used to give a brownish tint, this covers the grey. You can select from a variety of shades (I use dark brown). They insist that you should not use any metallic container and use distilled water (1 gallon for $1 at walmart). One packet lasts for 2 applications (I have short hair).

    For the powder from India,
    I would brew 1 tsp tea leaves in water and mix it in with mehendi, if I have amla, I would add that also. Keep it for 24 hours. Apply in hair, cover with plastic and shower cap overnight and wash off next morning only with water. The following morining you can wash with shampoo. I am allergic to chemical hair color so I use only mehendi.

    Hope this helps.

    Hello!! Vidya... I use henna and neel powder together.. It is good for greying of hair and hair fall.

    Even lemon added in henna is good..

    The mixture you have brought is also good.. just try to keep them for few days before applying..

    should apply for every 15days....
