Soak the henna:
Soak the henna powder in the tea for at least 8 hours (overnight is best).
Add lemon juice:
Mix the soaked henna with lemon juice just before application. This enhances the color and helps it stick.
Apply the mixture:
Wear your old t-shirt to avoid stains. Using the brush, apply the paste evenly from roots to ends.
Let it sit:
Cover your hair with a shower cap and let it sit for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
Rinse well:
Rinse your hair with cool water (no shampoo). Use a nourishing conditioner after rinsing. Avoid shampooing until the next day to let the color set.
🔁 Repeat Every 2–4 Weeks
Henna isn’t permanent, so for best results and full coverage, repeat once or twice a month.
✨ Bonus Tips:
-
Add indigo powder if you want darker tones (like dark brown or black).
-
Mix with amla powder for extra shine and strength.
-
Always do a strand test before full application.
