Question:
What Do You Think About Henna?
Answer:
About henna, though I know people love it, I'm not a big fan. It sounds like even the clear kind can build up in our hair and make it brittle if used often (Paula Begoun of Don't Go Shopping for Hair Care Products Without Me, as well as Anthony Hunting of Encyclopedia of Conditioning Rinse Ingredients has read lots of research in scientific journals on all kinds of products and thinks it can build up just by having it in conditioners.

You can also check out more information on it in the Ingredients Dictionary.

I tried it once in my texturizer days and found it a nightmare to get out of my hair again, and saw no difference afterward. But maybe I was using an odd brand or something...it was in Santa Cruz, and maybe it was an extra "leafy" formula or something...
