Well, I'm just too impatient. (I am waiting for some of Kenzi's
amazing stuff, but I'm just an instant-gratification kind of gal.)
So last weekend I got some henna from my local Whole Foods / Fresh
Fields store. The brand was Earth Henna

I mixed it with my regular Eucalyptus, clove, lemon, water, and let
it sit for about 8-10 hours. Then I mixed in some Tea Tree for the
malealuca (sp?) and Sweet Orange EO for the smell. I let it sit in
the fridge for 24 hours. It came out way runnier than I'd ever done
before, but it seemed like well-stirred yogurt, so I figured it was
okay. It was the stringiest I'd ever had, and now I see why
everybody raves about stringy!

I did some cool doodles on my palm, L/S, and let it sit for about 2
1/2 hours. I scraped it off, and rinsed a little.

It is the most brilliant, dark orange I've ever gotten at this
stage. I'd liken it to Magic Marker Orange. But as I speak, it is
darkening to a more brown. I have high hopes for what it'll look
like in the morning!
