Review: I loved it!!!!! First henna experience - So gals n guys here is my experience...I am so excited!!!.After doing a month of research on henna from wherever possible, I was still just not into it,so many questions brewing in my mind everyday seemed like solving the never ending mysteries of hennaland. Then finally I decided to give it a go. I am an Asian with straight fine black hair which give a brownish tint in the sun, I am having many white hair showing up though I am in my mid twenties (never ever used any chemicals/perms/hot treatments on my hair)which looked ugly. My hair are very long, upto my tailbone so I was wondering how much henna to use. This is the stuff which I collected first to prepare for my battle :) -Nupur mehandi 150 mg/one pack -Hair accessories kit (very very useful and cost-effective, available on desertcart, I was so excited that I gave my first review of life for that too).The kit had a cap-soft and very fit for average sized head and had ties, a paint brush, a plastic spatula/mixer, a dark cape-really really helped, pair of disposable gloves. -Coconut oil -Lavender oil (100% pure, got from desertcart) -Yoghurt -warm-hot water -Plastic container/bowl -Small plastic sheet (I used the bubble wrap and plastic sheet which is found inside the desertcart shipments sometimes :) -Vaseline (100% pure petroleum jelly), if applied on forehead, ears and neck-front and back, henna will not stain any part -Conditioner (I used Pantene conditioning shampoo though, the one which claims to protect dye color) Here are the steps which I followed, First I rapidly flipped through the you tube videos again (is this a sign of obsessive-compulsive disorder) just to make sure that I am not missing any relevant detail. Then I emptied approximately half the pack of nupur mehandi in the plastic container and slowly poured some water into it. You need to adding water slowly in small quantities and mixing it with henna, do not overdo with water since we just require it to be like a thick paste. I also added 10-15 drops of lavender oil, 3 big scoops of youghurt, 15-20 drops of coconut oil and mixed everything well. The mixture was neither thick nor runny. You can check the consistency by taking it a plastic spoon and then tilting the spoon. It should very very slowly trickle down like thick yoghurt. After thoroughly mixing, I kept a small piece of white paper on the dough/mixture, so that in the morning I could check its colour and guess what it would look like on my hair. I didn't want to do a strand test. Then I covered the container with plastic sheet and bubble wrap securely and kept it in a cardboard box (just to keep henna little warm). I was so excited to start applying it that was not able to sleep well, but had to wait for around 8 hours. In the morning I removed the sheet and bubble wrap and looked at the paper-it was kind of orangish-actually don't know how it helped :). Throughout this process, I stood in front of the huge mirror (which is obvious anyways)I wrapped the cape snugly around my shoulders (if you have this accessories kit, you need not worry about looking for old shirts and towels), applied Vaseline on my forehead, ears, cheeks, neck), added very little water to the henna mixture since it looked little more thicker and mixed it again, wore gloves and started applying henna on my hair with the brush. I read that we need to take small strands of hair and apply henna separately, but then I realized that it is not practically being possible for my extra-long hair. So I just started from the middle, applying henna to the hair roots first, right side then left side and then back and top of my head. The hair started becoming thicker with henna and my heart was pumping fast-I was actually applying henna finally! Rest of the mixture I applied directly with gloves since I had to cover the whole length of hair-brush was helpful for the roots only. I smeared all the remaining henna on full length and rubbed some on my whole head again with gloved fingers. The I twisted all my hair together in sort of a bun and was just going to apply a clip when I realized that the mass of my matted medusa hair was not moving an inch anyways, it was just lying on the top of my head like a globule so I kept the clip aside and wore the cap (Underneath this pretty blue cap, I also wore one of my old shower caps). Now I was little worried because the whole process was NOT MESSY AT ALL, and that was the last thing I expected. The henna didn't dripped anywhere, only the gloves were soiled. I washed my face and carried out with my routine work for 4 hours. Then with trembling hands (I was anxious how will my hair turn out) I removed the caps, the henna was almost dry, I hopped in the shower and started rinsing thoroughly. I had already diluted a very generous amount of shampoo and warm-hot water. Then I conditioned my hair for around 15 minutes and rinsed. RINSE RINSE RINSE. This is very important,do not use hot water for rinsing hair, warm water is best. Then I hopped out of the shower, towel dried my hair and saw one or two little knotty masses of hair which I entangled with little coconut oil. I gently combed through the length of my hair and it went so smoothly.The comb was just slipping through my hair, they were so soft! After they dried a bit I looked at the sparse white hair which I had, they have turned orangish-goldenish, my hair are not frizzy as they used to be after being washed and dried. They are super-clean, deep conditioned, silky and smooth. I cannot wait to see the final henna color, the color to which it will settle finally will show up in 2-3 days (though I know it would be black with chestnut reddish sheen in sun with very few coppery-auburn highlights). So this is my henna experience- I hope it would help some of the newbies like me. All the previous nupur reviews were really useful for me! I will update in case of any surprising or better results than expected :)IT WAS FUN!
Review: Best Henna EVER! - This is a great product. I'd like to give it an infinite number of stars! I have used Rainbow Henna consistently (but infrequently) for over 30 years, mainly for conditioning. I switched to Gorej Nupur Mehendi because I was looking for gray coverage. What is so good about Nupur? For one, it is very fine, so that the paste you make is very smooth, easy to apply, and easy to rinse out. For another, it is very powerful...the color is strong so you don't have to wonder if you're going to get pink hair or apricot poodle hair. And finally, the nine additional herbs have left my hair incredibly shiny and soft without the addition of any oils to my mix. Here's my recipe for changing my short, thin, fine brunette hair with about 35% gray into a soft, glossy, deep brunette with glistening auburn highlights and plenty of body and wave. 1. Mix up these dry ingredients in a 1 qt. freezer bag, then add water, zip it closed with no air inside, and knead until it has the consistency of a stiff pudding): * 30 grams Godrej Nupur Mehendi * 15 grams Hesh Pharma Amla Hair Powder 3.5oz powder (to tone down the red) * 1 heaping tsp. ground ginger (to neutralize the henna aroma) * 1 heaping tsp. ground cloves (to add a lovely clove scent) Note that it is not necessary to add acid (lemon, etc.) when you are using amla. *****UPDATE: Dec. 17, 2012***** Several friends felt that using indigo made my hair too dark, and so I doubled the amla and skipped the indigo. It has been very successful! My hair is a warm brown with dark copper/auburn highlights where it's gray. People who haven't seen me recently have really complimented it and assure me that it looks wonderful in sunlight as well as indoor light. 2. Place the bag into a 2 cup Pyrex filled with water, and nuke it until hot but not boiling. Let it sit for three hours. You will see that the water in the Pyrex shows an orange tint. This means the color has developed. *****UPDATE: Dec. 17, 2012***** I've let the color develop for up to a week and that seems to work very well; it gets less orange with a longer development time. 3. Put on an old teeshirt and wet your hair. Comb it away from your hairline the whole way around and smear a generous amount of petroleum jelly around your hairline and onto your ears...wherever you don't want orange skin. Place a plastic grocery store bag handy (so you can throw away your gloves and the empty henna bag) when you're done. Place a roll of cling wrap and a second grocery story bag handy for wrapping up your head after you finish applying. 4. Put on some vinyl gloves (I get the Sally Beauty Supply gloves when they're on sale). Put about 1/4" of water in your bathtub. Clip off a lower corner of your plastic bag with a pair of scissors, lean over the tub, and squeeze the henna/amla solution onto sections of your scalp, distributing it evenly and scrubbing it in so that you cover all of your hair from scalp to end. If any plops off, it will fall into the tub instead of onto the tile on your floor, where it could stain the grout. If the porcelain on your tub is old and porous, like mine, the small amount of water will prevent real contact and allow you to rinse the tub out quckly when you are done. 5. After all the henna/amla is worked into your hair, sculpt your hair away from your hairline so you can make sure you have good coverage around your hairline, and use a wet paper towel to remove any drips that are where you don't want them. Pull off a length of cling wrap that is long enough to go around your head and overlap. Wrap it around your head, about 1" onto your forehead, over your ears, and 1" below your hairline in back. Then pull off another length and wrap it even lower...2" onto your forehead, over your ears, and below your hairline in back. Using your brow scissors very, very carefully so you don't cut yourself, make a small hole at the center of each ear and gently pull your ear through. Now you can hear! And having the cling wrap below your earlobes will help keep it from riding up. In essence, you've created a cling wrap helmet. Wipe off your neck and any other place where the henna/amla has dripped and tie a grocery store bag on your head to keep the heat in. 6. Allow your color to develop for four to six hours. During color development, check periodically to remove drips with a wet wad of toilet paper. 7. When you're ready to rinse, put a stock pot in your bathtub and fill it with cold water. Pull off the grocery store bag and the cling wrap. Lean over, dunk your head in the stockpot, and shake your head to loosen the henna/amla. Use a big plastic glass or pitcher to pour cold water over the back of your head, and work on getting the henna/amla to loosen from your hairline as well as the rest of your scalp. When the water runs clear, put a couple of handsful of baking soda on your head, and work it into your scalp. The baking soda will help to neutralize the henna smell, and leave you feeling clean without using shampoo or conditioner. Rinse out the baking soda after a minute or two, and then towel dry your hair. You will be astonished at its beauty, softness, shine, color, and body. I just let my hair air dry, and it looks absolutely stunning. This henna is so powerful that my scalp is a bit orange, but wait to shampoo until the next day, or until several days have passed. Then shampoo and give yourself a coconut oil treatment just for good measure, using Dabur Vatika Coconut Hair Oil 150ml, 2 Count . Thank you, Godrej Nupur Mehendi! Your henna is just incredible, thanks to its purity and quality plus the nine special herbs. Keep up the good work and I'll be your customer for life!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: how long do I need to dye my grey hair**
A: I recommend using Jamila henna to dye gray hair.  The henna in mehendi powder is sort of a watered down version because other ingredients are added.  I mainly use the mehendi powder to maintain my color between henna dyes.

**Q: Can you use a semi permanent hair rinse over this brand of henna?**
A: I'm not a cosmetologist but henna is a very pure natural thing to dye your hair with so I don't think that they'll be any bad reactions as if it were a box dye. But what I can tell you is that henna coats the shaft of your hair so using a semi-permanent will most likely be way less effective as the dye can't penetrate the hair and will most likely wash out very easily

**Q: 3mth old Nutritint 4m on naturally black hair.  Want mahogany/burgundy. If use recipe where + 1 can coconut milk, how much indigo needed?  how to use?**
A: Mahogany and burgundy are two different colors. I henna without indigo and I'd say my hair is a rich burgundy the sun. How about trying it without the indigo first so you have a starting point and if you don't have the desired color, try a mix with more indigo than henna

**Q: Is 140 gram one  package or two packages?**
A: 1 pack of 140gm...thanks

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Leaves your hair a beautiful color -- and much less messy than the Lush hennas
*by L***E on February 14, 2014*

I'm 42 and have been dealing with grey hair for about the last ten years. To save money and to break away from more chemical dyes, I decided to use henna. It's taken me about two years to finally work up the nerve to do it, and, a few months ago, I tried the Lush henna for the first time. I loved how my hair turned out, but the Lush hennas are so sandy/gritty that they leave a huge mess all over the place. Based on the positive reviews for this Nupur powder, I decided to try it instead of using my Lush henna, and I'm so glad I did! My stylist had been coloring my hair dark brown with reddish tints that were only obvious when I am in the sun. Using this henna made it noticeably redder, even when I'm not in the sun. Since I was worried about it reading too orange, I mixed in some indigo powder. I spent literally hours and hours reading reviews here and on other sites to work up the nerve to use the Lush henna and this one, and I've found that looking through all those reviews -- esp. the one from Evolving Dish -- made the process much easier. As a point of reference, I have fine, wavy 2C curls that, when stretched, reach to the top of my waist. I'd say that I'm about 20% grey. Here is the process I used: 1. The night before, I mixed the powder in a large Pyrex bowl, adding in hot water until it formed a thick paste that looked like peanut butter or brownie batter. When pouring the water just remember: you can easily add some more water, but it's much harder to take it out again! 2. I then added in ten drops of lavender oil, some Burt's Bees Avocado Butter Pre-Shampoo Hair Treatment with Nettles and Rosemary - 4.34 fl oz , and some Dabur Vatika Enriched Coconut Hair Oil 300ml (Pack of 2 Bottles) , which I had melted in the microwave. I also added in 1 TB of lemon juice (which is supposed to make henna read less orange) and 1 TB of apple cider vinegar (which is supposed to help henna cover the grey). 3. Cover it with plastic wrap and allow to sit overnight in a warm place (which is supposed to help with dye release). 4. In the morning, I mixed 2 TBS of 100 Grams Bag of Natural Indigo Powder (wasma in Arabic and Urdu) Indigofera Tinctoria New Crop with warm water and a pinch of salt in a Pyrex measuring cup. I let it sit for ten minutes while I prepared my henna area. Once the indigo is ready (and it will be green!), mix it into the henna bowl. (Before mixing in the indigo, I spooned some henna into a small Ziploc baggie and froze it so I could use it for a root touch-up in about six weeks.) 5. To prepare your area, put down newspaper, trash bags, or old towels. I've also been putting on an old t-shirt with a big opening and putting a stylist's robe on over that. Make sure you have everything you'll need within easy reach -- hair color brushes, clips, shower cap, etc. 6. Apply something like Vasoline all along your hairline. I've been using Lush's Ultrabalm. 7. Put on gloves. I've been using a pair of Playtex dishwashing gloves. Another tip is to put a disposable glove under that on your left hand so that when you take the Playtex pair off, one hand will still have a covering to touch your hair. 8. Apply it! I've tried it a few ways -- starting from the bottom up, and from the top down. I always start with my roots first, and use a hairdye brush to really work it into my roots, esp. where my greys are. --I start with the brush to slop it all on, and then massage it into the whole strand/chunk of my hair. --Really work it into your scalp and roots to make sure the hair is covered. --This last time I applied henna, I used a bunning technique I saw on You Tube (search for "Henna Caca Lush"), which worked great; you basically create little buns on the top of your head as you work, and the henna holds it all in place. I've also twisted it into a bun via small sections, and alternate the directions I twist them around the base in. 9. Either put on a shower cap or use Saran Wrap to wrap it all up. You can also add folded paper towels around the base of the Saran Wrap to front and back of hair to catch drips later on. --If you use Saran Wrap, put it around really tightly - pull out a few feet, and twist it around itself while it's still on the tube - supposedly the tighter it is and the longer you leave in the henna, the less orange it will be. Then use that twist to twist it around the bun to keep it in place 10. I bought this beanie Dickies Men's 14 Inch Cuffed Knit Beanie Hat to put on top of the shower cap or Saran Wrap. It helps keep the plastic in place and creates more heat. 11. Clean yourself up (wipe the henna off your skin) and clean up any drips. 14. Leave it in -- I left mine in for about four hours. 15. When it's time to rinse it out, I dip my hair in a mop bucket of water, which loosens things up. Then I use a bunch of cheap Suave conditioner to get the rest out; it takes about 15 minutes of rinsing for the water to run clear. Now that I've applied henna three times, it takes me about 30-40 minutes to put it on my waist-length hair. I used about 3/4 of the package of this Nupur henna this first time, and had some left over. My hair is incredibly silky and feels so good! I can be sensitive to strong smells, but the smell of this didn't really bother me; I liked the herbal scent of it. I was also worried that this would leave my fine, 2C waves too limp, but they have retained their curl and I'm so happy with how my two inches of grey regrowth blended into the rest of my hair. The greys seem like subtle highlights. I'm officially a henna head, and don't think I'll go back to using commercial dyes again! Be brave and give it a go! I'm so glad I did! UPDATE ON 3-7-14: While I love how much easier this is to use than the Lush hennas, now that the color has had more time to settle, I think I'm going to go back to Lush. The color of the Lush hennas seems more vibrant in my hair, and the Lush henna imparted a shine that this hasn't. When I was using the Lush henna, people regularly commented on how pretty and shiny my hair was, and that hasn't happened at all since I used the Nupur brand. While much messier and much more expensive, the Lush one gives me better results, so I'll be returning to it.
