At all times women tried to decorate themselves in various ways including changing hair color. Presently the latest technologies and bad ecology there is no wish to subject hair to stress once again, using usual hair-dyes of unfavourable chemical composition. Henna will help to indulge itself at the same time with both leaving, and coloring of hair.
Henna - the powder made of the dried-up plant leaves henna. It is for a long time used by women of the world for coloring and treatment not only hair, but also skin. Many unflatteringly speak of this means, saying that after its use the hair are confused, become hard and dim, one of objects of discontent with it is the fact that after application it is quite difficult to wash away powder of henna. But, having armed with some skills, it is possible, really, not only to paint, but also to considerably improve condition of the hair.
Before use of henna it is desirable to stock up with patience, pan with densely closed cover, big towel, gloves and hat for shower. Having poured out bag (or two-three bags, depending on length of your hair) toner in pan, fill in, stirring slowly, powder hot water to condition of gruel. Close pan cover, wrap it towel and leave to infuse for 20-30 minutes. After this time, add tablespoon of olive oil to gruel (at your discretion you can add other oil, for example, almond, we add this ingredient not to dry up hair). Having carefully mixed gruel, we apply it on dry hair (it is desirable that they were not fresh-washed, it is better to use henna just when time to wash them has come). At the end of the procedure the head of hear similar to hairstyles of women of one of the African tribes smearing hair with clay that the living creatures were not brought to them turns out. We put on the head hat for shower, from above we wind it with towel and we wait, in zaisimost from result whom we want to receive, of 5 minutes till one o'clock. It is possible to leave henna and for longer time if you want more saturated copper shade of hair. Then we start the most difficult stage - particles of powder of henna need to be washed away from hair that is represented sometimes almost impracticable mission. Usual hair conditioner will help to cope with this task. Washout the main the mass of gruel from hair, it is necessary to take a little conditioner, to apply it on hair and then to wash away it from hair together with the remained henna particles.
As a result of coloring/treatment by henna hair become more dense, brilliant and elastic - very useful effect for owners of fine hair. Pleasant bonus - bright saturated copper shade of hair.
