Can this be used on your skin like henna?

Not really. It just leaves a bluish cast. You want Ancient Blue for body art. http://www.mehandi.com/shop/skinindigo/

Yes! I mix lemon juice with henna (40 g for short hair), let it sit overnight, then in the morning just before applying it, I add 40 g indigo with warm water to the mixture. The color turns out dark brown with a tint of red. My hair is naturally medium/dark brown. It works great!

It depends on how light your hair is. BUT, pretty much as soon as you put it in it will start to color your hair....Your best bet would be to look up what to mix with this henna to make it more your natural color. There are tea's, coffee, even other powers that will help keep some of the red down :) hope this helps!

I use on my hair, but it's very nice pure henna, so should be a nice dark burgundy on the skin.

Dear Bunny, (Love your name!) yes, you can mix any colors together; as long as both of the colors are henna. Another product is called Hennalucient. Good Luck,

I have a bit of gray. I used Henna for the first time and it covered everything beautifully. I'm a complete convert now. I have pretreated hair, years of dyeing. I'm not sure how well the Henna would grab a hold of untreated hair but for me, it's maintained it's color wonderfully. Can't recommend enough.

I don't know why.. but this did not work on my henna (my henna was metal free as well). it looked like it worked for a few days but after I washed it for the first time after doing this process, it was back to the henna color.

In my experience, if you combine permanent chemical dyed hair and henna, the result will not be what you want. We had a greenish color appear on a friend's hair after such a treatment. But, that's only one person one time. I have never used both on my own hair at the same time. To be safe though, I would definitely do a small area first so you don't have a disaster.

no this is paint is like what most people use at like a football game it is good for covering an area temporarily only if you brush it a little it will come offit is not the same type of paint as you would your for henna application if you do a search you will probably find something related to that type of paint when we used it for the avatar costume it was to be temporary only like 2 to 3 hours need hope this helps you

This is body art quality henna but it can also be used on your hair which is what I use it for.

It might not turn out the same as if you didn't use henna so it's not recommended but I don't think there's any harm in it... I llightened a friends hair after henna, and it didn't take all the color out, it made it kind of brassy so I had To go over it twice.. Henna is kind of a commitment but it is possible to dye over it.....

Yes, but you cannot use it alone on Grey or else it will come out blue. You have to apply henna first as a base. It will turn orange with the henna (DON'T GET SCARED lol), but once you rinse and apply the indigo and leave it on for the time recommended it will come out very black.

Hi, when I used this henna I would have my mom help me :) She would use a USED toothbrush and scrub it onto my roots and hair. The more used it is, the better. That's how I apply it onto my hair.

I think this is the perfect product to test out a black tattoo. The color turns to a blue/black (cool, not warm) color and is quite saturated for a henna application. Good luck!

The box says ( in Spanish) that it's meant for hair, but it is pure henna powder so I think in theory you could also use it on your skin. I accidentally got some on my wrists when applying and it stained it orange. If I had left it on longer it probably would've gotten darker. Look up the different techniques for doing it at home and don't use any Henna that claims to be black henna for tattoos. That has PPD and will cause scarring and is very bad. There are other temporary tattoo things for sale on Amazon. You could check those out as an alternative.

From my understanding, Henna is permanent. So, I'm sure you can go darker, but you won't ever be able to go lighter because once you use Henna it can't be stripped from your hair. If you are going to go darker you should be fine. But I am pretty sure that you may still have some red in your hair even if you go to dark brown. But it will be subtle.

No. It appears to be 100% pure henna. Of course, I haven't tasted it. :-). Seriously, though, I have a keratin treatment in my hair, and salt would destroy it. It's held up for over three months, and I've hennaed my hair several times in between.
