Natural Henna does NOT contain any metallic salts

I was talking to an ex-hairdresser today and was so disappointed when she said she didn't like henna because she believes that "the metallic salts in henna cause your hair to break if you later use a chemical hair dye".  Spent ages trying to convince her that she must not have been using natural henna but some sort of mix.

100% natural henna is just crushed, dried leaves, nothing added.
100% natural henna does not contain any metallic salts.
100% natural henna does not break your hair if you use a chemical hair dye later (however chemical hair dyes may break your hair anyway, with or without the use of henna).
100% natural henna does not strip your hair but rather bonds with the composition of your hair.

Other positive effects of 100% natural henna can include:
* Boosts hair growth
* Treats dandruff
* Aids restful sleep
* Therapeutic and calming
* Detoxifying
* Soothes headaches, aches, and pains
* Cools scalp and skin & reduces temperature
* Fights infection

Why we love Henna and Indigo...

Some interesting facts about henna and indigo

Henna and Indigo- Truly ‘green’ hair dyes

We have been extolling the virtues of our 100% natural hair dyes since we started selling them on our web site www.lovehennahair.co.uk in 2008. In fact, the ecological credentials of our natural hair dyes stretch beyond the fact that they are made purely by drying and grinding leaves of the plants Lawsonia Inermis (henna) and Indigofera tinctoria (Indigo). Henna and indigo are ecologically sound crops for small land holders in marginal farming areas, and if the market for these products increases, it will benefit family farms and soils, as well as preserving our own health.

Henna is a green powder with a distinctive smell which, on its own, dyes hair orangey-red. It contains tannins known as hennotannic acid.  Tannins are slightly astringent and their use will tighten the surface of the scalp and hair follicles, strengthening the follicles’ grasp on each hair.  Henna penetrates the hair shaft, strengthens it, smooths the cuticle and thickens the hair, making your hair more resistant to breakage.

Indigo is also a (different shade of) green powder that smells like frozen peas.  If you mix that with water, you'll see a bluish purple glaze form on the surface after a while. It can be used in different combinations with henna to create a range of colours from orange to brown to black.
