Red Henna Powder is a 100% natural plant dye made from Lawsonia inermis . It bonds to the keratin in hair to create a translucent red tone that blends with your natural colour, giving results from bright copper to deeper auburn depending on your base shade. On very dark hair, it adds warm red highlights rather than a dramatic colour change. Henna can also leave hair feeling stronger, glossier and fuller, and may be used as a natural colourant in soaps, masks and other DIY cosmetic projects.
♡ Why we love it: Red henna is a single-ingredient, plant-based colour with no ammonia, PPD or synthetic fragrance. It gives a natural-looking translucent colour while doubling as a shine-boosting hair treatment.
