Never tried to talk me into letting her do it. She said, you do it well, I see no reason to break that trend. Then I wanted to try a two tone variation and thought it would be a cleaner line if she did it. We talked about it for about 2-3 months. I wanted a dark red on the bottom and a chocolate brown on top. The brown came out beautifully. The "red" however, didn't stick the first time. So we did it again....and it was pink. Not just a light pale pink...but PINK. Like the would be hair stylist in Grease. Just goes to show, even with knowledge (heck I brought her the boxes from my last two dyes jobs!), colour is finicky. But yes, I still go to her and yes, she is still awesome.TheatreChick73https://www.blogger.com/profile/00817233140832509477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6299578764487881408.post-18095726940609885222013-02-21T18:47:14.155-07:002013-02-21T18:47:14.155-07:00This EXACT thing happened to me too.

She has pretty dark hair but there was starting to be a lot of white. The henna dyes the white a reddish shade and gives her dark hair a reddish tint. No more white/gray and the look is a lot like having highlights. She has always done it herself, at home. It's easier if she has someone to help but she can handle it herself, too. And she just touches up the roots every few months. The biggest trick is keeping it off her skin or that'll die red, too!Sparks of Emberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12971371995599010711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6299578764487881408.post-46664245619587192542013-02-20T17:27:32.701-07:002013-02-20T17:27:32.701-07:00Yes it is!

A lot of people do ombre` because they can wait longer between touch ups...this reason alone is enough for people to jump on this literally head first!Pinstrosityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11647945298736302127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6299578764487881408.post-46528245514659099602013-02-20T17:25:03.511-07:002013-02-20T17:25:03.511-07:00The thing about henna is one you shouldn't hav...The thing about henna is one you shouldn't have any other kind of chemical color in your hair beforehand, and then once you have henna in your hair you shouldn't use any other kind of chemical color until the henna is all grown out and cut off. Chemical colors and henna don't play well. I would also suggest that this one of the more high maintenance products, and finding a good color that you love and have easy access too can be difficult. I had one client who used henna because she wasn't fond of chemicals. She went through a lot of different companies over 30 years until she found one she liked. She also had to come in pretty often to get refreshers and what not. Also once Henna is mixed to the consistency it needs to be to be applied it literally looks like monkey poop and applies like thick mud, and I think that makes some hair dressers shy away. It's not the normal product they work with and may make some nervous. If henna is something you are committed to I say try it! But make sure you do your homework first! It can be somewhat hard to maintain, but it is chemical free which is what a lot of people like about it. Also make sure the hairdresser you use is experiences with henna and knows what he/she is doing. As we saw above if they are uncomfortable with a product it can turn out bad! Good luck!Pinstrosityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11647945298736302127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6299578764487881408.post-73258638299021370772013-02-20T15:38:21.702-07:002013-02-20T15:38:21.702-07:00I'm a hairstylist too and I'm really hopin...I'm a hairstylist too and I'm really hoping ombre goes away soon too.

Ombre is the gradual shift from light to dark or from one shade to another (think of the paint chips that start dark on the bottom and go lighter as you get to the top...that's the idea of it).
