Paint thinner is absorbed by the skin and is stored by the
liver...forever! Your body cannot metabolize it and it is a
carcinogen. The average lifespan of a theatre technician a few years
ago was 50, middle age was 25 years old because we used to use paint
thinner and acetone in EVERYTHING!!

I've been around turpentine and acetone my whole life (dad and me
paint with oils), we both have a healthy respect for the stuff and are
very careful with it. Please keep yourself healthy, there are other
things you can put in your hennna to make it darker. Try eucalyptus
oil it also opens up the pores without poisoning your liver.

Happy and Healthy Henna-ing
