Hmm, Raine. I am also a REBEL, BUT I HAVE A CAUSE!!!Lol. Hmm..you got me

thinking now. I have listened to " them " for years, and refused to use henna. I

was

afraid I would end up with carrot red or purple hair! I know the dangers of

using chemical dyes, but I refuse to let it be gray, and allow it to grow

completely out before I could use henna. I am brunette. No, actually, to tell

the

truth, if gone uncolored, and I about 90% white. I have taken really good care

of my skin, and my complexion does not go with white hair. I am curious

about what brand/color you used. Do you have gray roots, and if so, how well did

the henna cover them? Was it brunette? Inquiring minds want to know!! You have

given me confidence, so I may try it, also. Have to admit I am still " shaking

in my boots! " Have a great day! Kaye
