: Ok... here's the picture of my hand... I've put the link to the
page
: below in case it doesn't work. Surprisingly its massively darker
: today than it was lastnight when I scanned it. I don't know if you
: can pick them out but I included the arabic words for Wisdom
(across
: the palm), Love (on the heel of my hand), and Peace (just at the
base
: of my thumb) I got them from a few of Catherine's designs, much
: thanks to you again, Ms. Jones.


The link is not working unfortunately ...

: Ok... a few questions about henna for the hair. First off, how long
: should you wait after dying your hair with actual hair dye before
you
: attempt henna?


approx 4 months is what i have heard ,


Second, if you henna your hair, does your scalp turn
: orange?


No this has never happened to me.


Third, if you have a simple recicpe that doesn't involve too
: many exotic ingredients could you send it my way, my roommate and I
: are thinking of hennaing our hair and could use some guidance.


if you go to CCJ's webpage you will find a simple yet effective
recipe - thats the one which I use. The only other one which i have
heard works well is:

100 gms henna powder
hot water
1 Tablespoon oil
1 egg
2 Tablespoons coffee ( if you want a darker shade)



:Regards
Anne
