I put leftover terped paste in my hair mix last time and didn't
notice a difference between that and the usual hot water, yogurt, and
lemon juice mix. It did smell nice, though.
About the blended henna colors- CCJ says indigo on henna will turn
the hair glossy blue-black but that it turns bright green first. I'm
wondering if mixing both at the same time instead of in two separate
applications would work without so much green?

: Hi,
:
: I've seen several kinds, and some were with PPD and some were with
things like black walnut, cloves, indigo etc., all 'harmless stuff'.
There were a *lot* of ingredients BTW, even for the 'plain' red one!.
Ask to see the package and read the ingredient list. If they don't
let you, or don't list the ingredients, I'd steer clear just in case.
:
: I have one question: Has anybody tried a terped mix on hair? If so,
I'd love to know how it turned out.
:
: I've died my own hair with pure henna & lemon juice, & I love the
color it's become. Red suits me fine!
: I'm hoping the color will deepen with additional hennaing, but this
is beautiful too. I love the way the highlights *shine* in the light.
