In reply to: Death From an Allergic Reaction: More Damage Control For Henna Artists,Unfortunately posted by Lynn on May 12, 2001 at 17:53:41:

I heard about this unfortunate news sometime early this week. Eagle
Black Henna is extensively sold in Singapore as hair dye. I've never
used it personally as hair dye though (I used to henna my hair using
Jamila). I can easily get it in Little India but I doubt there are
much useful information I could get from the box (or anyone) if there
is anything sinister involved.

Love & peace,
