I don't see why not if you use pure henna. However remember that henna is super messy and can be drying to hair so if your bub has the patience for it, be sure to keep her hair super moisturised after.My Big Fat Afrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03758605995871252192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2863012968422641611.post-91226914969214285482014-04-06T16:23:24.448+03:002014-04-06T16:23:24.448+03:00I read somewhere that if u wanted your henna colou...I read somewhere that if u wanted your henna colour to darken further after rinsing it out,you slather some oil on your hair and leave it overnight-Is this true?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05756459084433780890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2863012968422641611.post-36127653199817012332013-11-06T11:29:52.284+03:002013-11-06T11:29:52.284+03:00Can i put heena on my three year old daughters hai...Can i put heena on my three year old daughters hair?BECKYnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2863012968422641611.post-10969658812728944872013-11-01T11:15:12.466+03:002013-11-01T11:15:12.466+03:00No idea.

I'll try it next henna session and compare; anything to cut down on washing time.

I had been told about it by a friend and she does it the same way: mix henna and let it steep overnight, mix some conditioner ( I use tresseme natural) , oils ( avocado, shea and JBCO) and the add a deep/thick conditioner ( i use the harvest of sunshine soft butter or the Shea moisture deep treatment mask) I let it stay on for about 4 hours, rinse, cowash and go. <br />I wonder if this makes a difference in combating the dryness as well as a DC after? <br />What do you think?

Since I had a 7am meeting this morning, I couldn't let it sit overnight, I went & sat under a steamer for 45 min at the neighbourhood salon, washed off, slapped on my Dc which was basically honey, glycerine and a scoop of conditioner. I carried the whole honey jar to the salon since i was in a hurry...you should have seen the side eyes from other customers when i was mixing..and the questions from the stylists:-) It came out very well, my ends are visibly darker (redder...no?) I have found honey & glycerine (being humectants) work wonders as DC after a henna treatment.Curly-Natural-Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05636339721371108239noreply@blogger.com
