I am using henna on my hair for more that 12 years. I love colour my hair but my mom said big noooooooooo. She allowed only natural products to hair or skin. She applied henna to my hair to turn my hair to burgundy. And also give additional benefits to my hair..
Henna is one of the ingredients that is used for a lot of beauty reasons. From colouring your hair to using it for mehendi, henna has been one of the best hair care ingredients available to us. Since ancient times, henna has been used as a hair dye. The burgundy brown hair colour is due to the henna leaves which acts as a natural hair dye. Apart from colouring your hair, henna is also good for treating other hair problems. If applied on the hair, reduce hair fall, reduce dandruff, henna helps strengthen the hair, nourishes the scalp and softens the hair.
Henna have many good qualities but i want to warn you in adavance "Henna turns your hair brittle" when over use of it. and we need to follow good hair care regime.. I will tell you some tricks which i followed for 12 years..

I apply lil bit of warm almond oil to my hair before applying henna.
Always apply henna using finger tips (i apply using finger tips) or brush divide your hair into section apply in scalp, apply henna to stand roll them up to head apply in roll.
