I used a henna dye last night which was indigo leaves or something to darken my hair (to undo sun lightening), it was the powder form. Anyways I think it turned out a little too dark, now I have jet black hair! Anyone have any tips or experience on removing it? its supposed to last 8 weeks. I read somewhere about using mineral oil and a heat cap to remove the coating... im also thinking a protein pak may help too.... but it stains the shaft which I dont think I may be able to remove till it fades : (
I'm not entirely against the jet black look, but I'm quite pale and I like to wear black alot so I dont wanna come across like a wannabe goth, not that I dont like that look...hmm im not really sure, I'll give the mineral oil thing a try and if nothing happens I'll just get out my black eye liner and nail polish and live with it - just joking.
So ive managed to loose a bit of the jet black and now have a darker shade of my original med brown. I used an olive oil hair mask and a hairdryer to heat it, then I washed with nizoral shampoo. Then followed by an intensive protien treatment... and after all that (I had the day off today) the colour lifted a bit and is now how I wanted it - yay!
