More Information

PREPARATION:
Rainbow Henna may be applied on wet or dry hair, but it is important that the hair be clean. If you wish to shampoo first, towel hair dry. Apply cream, oil or vaseline around the hairline, ears and neck to avoid staining your skin.

DIRECTIONS:
Pour 4 oz. (1 cup) Rainbow Henna into a glass or plastic bowl. Gradually add 1 cup boiling water. Use a wooden or plastic spoon to mix thoroughly to a creamy consistency. (More liquid can be added if mixture is too thick.) For Rainbow Neurtal Henna, mix 2 oz. (1/2 cup) with 1 cup boiling water.

APPLICATION:
Wear plastic or rubber gloves (not included) to avoid staining your hands.
  1. Section hair. Sections should be about 1" thick.
  2. Begin at the scalp and paint on the Henna with a brush from roots to the ends.
  3. Continue until all the hair is thickly coated with the Henna mixture.
  4. Place a cotton or tissue band around the hair with a plastic bag or plastic wrap.

TIMING:
For best results, use a dryer, heat lamp, or Thermo Heat Cap. Leave on as follows:
Black, Red, Sherry, Mahofany, Burgundy, Dark Brown, Medium Brown, and Copper - with heat 45 minutes; without heat 60-75 minutes.
Strawberry Blonde, Blonde, Marigold Blonde, Light Brown and Neutral - with heat 30 minutes; without heat 45-60 minutes.
When timing is complete, rinse thoroughly with hot water, then rinse with cool water. Follow with Rainbow Henna Shampoo. Rinse thoroughly and style.

SPECIAL RECIPES AND HINTS:
COFFEE
To help tone down red tones, deepen brown-red tones, or cover grey, substitute coffee for water. Use brewed, black coffee (not instant or decaffeinated). After coffee is brewed, bring to a boil. Mix as directed.
TEAS
Ceylon or Black China Tea will add gold highlights to Light Brown Henna. Red Zinger Tea enriches red tones in Burgundy, Sherry, Mahogany, and Red Henna. Chamomile Tea Brightens and adds gighlights to Neutral, Blonde, or Marigold Blonde Henna. Let tea steep for 20-30 minutes. Bring to a boil. Substitute tea for water. Mix as directed.
APPLE CIDER VINEGAR
To help color hold on grey hair, add 2 tbsp. apple cider vinegar to Henna mixture.
LEMON JUICE
To lighten blonde shades, add 2 tbsp lemon juice to Henna mixture.
TO DEEPEN RED SHADES
Red, Sherry, Mahogany, or Burgundy can be deepened by mixing a darker shade. For example, 3 oz. (3/4 cup) Mahogany + 1 oz. (1/4 cup) Dark Brown = Dark Auburn.
DRY HAIR
Add 1 egg, 2 - 4 tbsp. olive oil, or 2 - 4 tbsp. plain yogurt to Henna mixture. These natural ingredients not only condition, but help with the application and rinsing processes.
