Hi there! Today we are going to be talking about our Deep Red Henna Dye.

Ingredients:
🌿 Henna (Lawsonia inermis): Pure henna, milled into powder form before undergoing a triple-sifting process, forms the red-orange base of our henna hair dyes. We create different shades by blending henna with other natural ingredients.

🌿 Red Kaolinite Clay: Red clay purifies the scalp and helps boost hair volume, softness and shine.

Made with 97% pure henna powder and 3% red clay, Deep Red works best with light-to-medium hair colors. Like our other natural henna hair dyes, its deep red hue usually does not show on dark hair. Instead, it gives brunettes beautiful red undertones that are especially noticeable in sunlight.

STEP 1: YOUR HAIR SHOULD BE CLEAN:
Before you apply the hair dye to your hair, your hair should be clean and oil free. This way the henna will stay longer in your hair and the color would develop more properly, otherwise, if your hair would be dirty the henna molecules will not make the proper bond with the natural hair oil and color will fade away within a week.

STEP 2: MIX THE HENNA:
The quantity of the henna powder you need depends on your hair length. If you have the shoulder length hair with the normal density, you can use one pack of 100 grams. For the medium length hair, you can use one and a half pack of 100 grams and for hip length hair, you may use 250 grams of the henna. But it also depends on your hair texture. Like if you have the curly hair with shoulder length you may require 150 to 200 grams of the henna. Well, this quantity is usually mentioned at the back of the pack as well. Always read those instructions too. Here is a little guide

Short Hair & Half Beard-1/3 (4.5 tbsp)

Shoulder Length & Full Beard-2/3 (8tbsp)

Mid Back/Full Pack/Hip Length-1&1/2 pack

Mustache-1/4 (3tbsp)

For mixing the henna, take a bowl and add the henna powder into it. Add warm water into the powder gradually. Stir the mixture thoroughly with the spoon; the mixture should be as thick and homogeneous as the cake batter because applying the thick layer is important for the desired results. Cover the henna mixture with the plastic wrap and leave it out for the following amount of time for each color medium brown/light brown/auburn 45 mins all the rest of the colors 8-10 hours.

STEP 3: WEAR OLD /UNWANTED SHIRT:
Before the application of the henna on hair don't forget to wear some old shirt. The henna that may accidentally apply to clothes can stain them permanently. Also, take care of the surrounding shelves, curtain, and carpets.

STEP 4: BRUSH YOUR HAIR AND MAKE THE PARTITIONS:
Brush your hair and make them tangle free. Divide your hair into 4 sections and tie 3, leaving one down to color first. This section should be along with your hairline.

STEP 5: APPLY VASELINE AND WEAR GLOVES:
Apply the Petroleum Jelly or Vaseline on the hairline and wear the gloves.

STEP 6: APPLY THE DEEP RED HENNA MIXTURE ON HAIR:
When everything above is done take the mixture and uncover it. Stir it once again and start applying with the help of the coloring brush. Start from the section you left untied. Divide this section into further small sections. Apply the thick coat of henna on the hair. Apply the color from ends to the tips of the roots. Each small section should be next to the section previously done.

STEP 7: WRAP YOUR HAIR:
After the thorough application, wrap your hair with the saran wrap/shower cap. This helps in the better development of the color.

STEP 8: SET THE STOP-WATCH:
Set the stop watch for 2-3 hours for Henna & 1-2 hours for hair treatment or conditioners, and make yourself busy in some work, till the henna communicates the HENNA color to your hair. Seems too long? trust us, its very therapeutic experience and its known to be one of the best ways to de-stress & feel calm.

STEP 9: WASH YOUR HAIR:
When the alarm goes off, it's the time to hit the shower. Use the normal water to rinse your hair. Put your hair under shower to wash the henna away from the hair. Do not use the shampoo but you can use conditioner to help you out while rinsing. The henna color will continue to darken for 2 to 3 days. Use shampoo after 48 hours of rinsing.

Our red-toned dyes can experience some bleeding.
So it's best if you wash your hair every day for 3 days after coloring with cool water. This will help seal the hair cuticle.
