Im at work climbing up a concrete truck to check the consistency of the concrete and all I am thinking of is doing my henna treatment tonight. I ordered a 450 g packet of 100% pure henna from Amazon two weeks ago, and time only permitted me to make my henna paste last night about 11pm. I brewed two sachets of black Lipton tea. I used one cup of the henna powder and added the brewed tea, two tablespoons of lime juice, four tablespoons of apple cidar vinegar, four drops rosemary oil, a tablespoon of honey, and two tablespoons of olive oil. The key is to leave it overnight. Apparently the colour releases after some hours and you get a richer colour. I could have applied it last night but I was too exhausted from work! Although Im only using it as the protein treatment. I washed my hair this morning! Let me tell you!!! I had build up like a tower! I cleansed with a sufate-free shampoo from Neutrogena, clarified with V05 clarifying kiwi and lime conditioner and rinsed with ACV. I put in big plaits and headed to work. The plan is to wet my hair and to apply the henna thoroughout my hair, saran wrap it sufficiently, warm it under the hooded dryer for about 10 minutes and head to bed!. Ill post the pictures shortly. Wish me luck!
