Happy 2012 Ladies!
Yea a little late but its my first post of the year. :D
If I were my hair I would be super mad with me. I have thoroughly abused my strands with heat. I know that my last post had something to do with me treating my hair better because of my flat iron frequency, but I fell back from that yesterday. Its just that there are so many events at holiday time!
So I had some henna that I bought from eBay a while ago and figured I would redeem myself.
I found a few videos on YouTube about how to mix the henna. They had the basics but some used different 'extras' like lime juice, apple cider vinegar or conditioner. So I just took the things I had in stock to make my own.

For my mix I used:
- henna (1 pack)
- water
- conditioner
- lime juice
- a tad bit of grapeseed and olive oil
after mixing to a yogurt-y texture, I put the bowl on a plastic bag and left it for 24hrs (and then some). Apparently that is to release the dye.
I'm not doing this henna treatment for color, but I just wanted to do what experts said was right.
Here's a very helpful video from MopTopMaven on YouTube about benefits, mixing instructions and application.
I'll be back with the application and the results!
thanks for reading!
