Bleaching with henna?


Not possible, I'm afraid.
Henna is a dye, a natural dye, and as such cannot lighten hair. I have read about people rinsing their hair with lemon juice which seems to lighten gently but there doesn't seem to be a non-chemical way to lighten hair.
Amla and Cassia are neutral hair dyes and will brighten hair, sometimes giving a lightening effect.
Using pure henna you can become a stunning redhead and by mixing henna and indigo you can deepen your hair to a stunning dark brown. Pure indigo will give a bluish tinge to your hair - so unless you fancy a blue rinse I wouldn't advise.

I have created a "social network" - an area that hopefully, along with Lovehennahair will give people the opportunity to discuss natural beauty products and make friends with like-minded people.
