I left it for 6 hours out in room temp.(about 72 degrees), then put
it in the frige over nite. Could it be that the water I used was to
hot, because It had just stoped boiling when I mixed it with the
henna. Also the henna I used was a little old. How hot should the
water be when I mix it? I still have some of this henna left I would
like to use.

: That is truely strange! How warm was the place where you left your
: henna? Sounds like the dye release was really really fast (happens
: under very hot conditions) and exhausted the batch ...a brown
batch
: of henna usually means all the dye has been released and you'll
just
: get orange stains. Do you have some henna left that you can try
with
: only a 3 hour wait before you apply?
: Or....you've got henna different from any I've ever
experienced.....
