Henna Causing You to Itch?
So, I've done a henna treatment twice and any benefits it may have given me have been overshadowed by a terribly itchy scalp in the days/weeks following. Anyone else experienced this? I was thinking that maybe I didn't wash it out properly or that my DT wasn't a good match (I tried AOHR and it did nothing for me [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] ). I am going to try my henna/indigo mix just one more time, trying a different DT (maybe a kind of homemade hot oil treatment since my hair seems to respond well to that). If that doesn't work I may have to consider that my hair is just sensitive to the whole process. I haven't noticed it being any softer or thicker. I did like that I was able to add color naturally, thought.
TIA for any advice [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.].

DID you use vinegar or some other acid to mix it. I had a similar reaction. I now use yogurt, based on the advice of the lady at the Indian store where I purchase my henna. She told me to use that or just plain water. I also mixed the latest batch with beet juice. It gave more of a burgundy auburnish color. Try that the yogurt and see if it works for you!

I used a green tea mix. Maybe it was too acidic. I will try the yogurt or water. Thanks, NylaCoils! I'll let you know how it turns out :-).
P.S. What kind of yogurt (i.e. organic, greek ....)?

I have used a greek plain yogurt- most recently it was just plain yogurt from publix.
