Hi DonInOz,
Well since you mentioned me here I figured it was my duty to respond ;) LOL. It was about two years ago I made the decision to color my hair using henna.Before I used the red henna I experimented first with Cassia which doesn't have real color but applies just like henna.I buy my henna from Mahandi and frankly have loved the look of my hair with the results.Sure its a bit of a pain in the arse applying it but I've got the system down now so its really easy to do and I do all of it myself.I usually reapply every eight to ten weeks when the new growth starts to get noticeable.I also henna my facial hair so it all matches which is a challenge but again I figured out a system that works well.You do need patience and time if you want to go the henna route but frankly I enjoy the experience.I just set aside a few hours on a Saturday to do the job.My hair feels soooo good after a henna treatment and I love the freshening afterwards.I know its all a matter of preference but I just feel better about myself with my colored hair and the world be damned if they have a problem with a 51 year old with long red hair! Attached is a pic of me fresh after a re treatment.Cheers
