    We probably answer more questions about our henna hair dyes than just about any other product at Lush. Do you use the whole block? Will it work on your grays? And, of course, how do you use it? As always, Erica is here to help with this crash course on our plant-based hair dyes.
    Erica starts us off with a history lesson explaining both the brick’s unique shape and style, as well as Lush’s own 40-year journey with these vegan hair dyes. Each shade is a unique mix harkening back to co-founder Mark Constantine’s origins as a trichologist and henna colorist in the United Kingdom, and each mix is handmade with a blend that brings out each beautiful color. From lemon juice and coffee to nettle powder and cocoa butter, every dye is designed to yield the most vibrant hues on every head of hair.

    "I swear you don't have to use a grader" lmaoooo, you LITERALLY need to use a grader, otherwise its like putting sand straight up in your hair and it's impossible to rinse off. If you make it into a powder first and then dilute in hot water works a thousand times better. Take it from an ex lush employee who used this henna multiple times. I must say it leaves your hair so soft and shiny! Such a great product :) but make sure to dissolve it properly lmao.

    • @esyasilverwind2784
      @esyasilverwind2784 5 лет назад +40

      I use it perfectly fine without grating it. It takes a bit longer to smelt/dissolve, but that is time (and effort!) I would have to put into grating otherwise (I tried grating before and decided that method was not for me). If it is too sandy, I feel not enough water was used to dissolve it. So I would suggest to people to try both options and see what you prefer.

When I use caca rouge, my grey hair will be a more bright orange compared to my other hair. This is because henna applies a coating around your hair, instead of opening up the hair to deposit the colour inside (hence no damage to the hair). I prefer it this way, as it also results in a more natural look.

I've used Maui Moisture Smoothie and had great results. Just don't freak out when you have to use handfuls of the stuff. LOL.

    Tips for people who wanna use henna (Not this garbage henna but the ones you can get at Southeast Asian stores and Middle Eastern stores)
    Add warm water in your henna along with 1tbsp of lemon juice, ginger juice, mustard oil, Fenugreek powder, 1-2 egg whites and leave it for 1 hr then apply thoroughly in your hair. Wash after keeping it on your hair for 1-2hrs depending on your time availability.
    I do not suggest mustard oil for people with oily skin. I have added plain yoghurt too sometimes.
    All these addition helps with dandruff, gives shine, makes your root strong, makes hair smooth and helps with growth.
    Ps. This has been used for generations in my community and it’s awesome.

    I was debating on henna for years until I bit the bullet and did it for the first time 5 years ago. I should have read more in depth- it SUCKED on boxed-colored hair, the roots were never the same color, no matter what color I used, and it was an all around mess on my head. Cut it away, started new, but eventually, I was bad and started using box dye again. Cut to last year, I got to work from home and went a little...nuts. Bleach, box, bleach, box, hair falling out. Shaved it off. Colored for the first time last August when I had enough hair with Lush henna and oh my GOD, so much better this time around, and now it's all I'll use forever more. Lush, you've saved my hair and my sanity. I love this stuff and will never box dye again. So lesson learned, kiddos- DON'T dye over box dye with this, because your roots will NEVER match. This is best for people who 1. Have virgin hair and 2. Don't like to change that much. It does only come in 3 colors (I don't count the straight brown, that's more of a block conditioner, honestly) and depending on your hair, you'll get bright orange, rusty orange, fire red, deep red, and dark, rich chocolate brown. My roots are mostly gray and when I dye it with Noir, they come out very light brown, almost blonde.

For about 2 weeks my hair smelt like boiled vegetable, especially when wet and i hated that. The color would also run everytime i would wash it. But eventually i got this nice red color and it stayed like that for a long time. Great thing is that it faded but there never really was a huge mark when my hair grew back. I noticed it in some pictures when my hair was in a pony tail, about 9 months after i had died it. It was a great color, but the process was super messy. I had to use the whole thing, and it took me forever to apply it, and good thing i covered the floor with cardboard and newspaper, and that the walls were covered in tiles that i immediately wiped. Also, when in the hair it gets super messy and tangled.

    I used the noir henna last week for the first time. It's dead winter and it was difficult to melt and apply, it would cool down too quickly even with a pot of hot water underneath. Also because it dries so quickly you can't comb it through. I tried to comb it and it crumbled into a mess. I liked the end result, it wasn't as hard to wash out and it didn't stain my shower like boxed due would. My hair is thin and curly and the henna did make it feel thicker and straighter, at first I didn't think it covered my grays but the next day they were barely visible. It doesn't leave your hair shinny but kind of mate.

There is also no way to remove it from your hair once it is died.

      Even crunchy vegan health food stores sell it cheaper. Wish I had done a bit more research before I impulse bought this one last week. I'm gonna go ahead and use what I bought but if I decide to keep it up there's plenty of other brands I'm going to look for first

    Henna does not loop arount the hair. It bonds to the keratin of the hair. Thats also why its so hard to remove. I freaking love the result caca rouge gives me though. Its amazing.

    If you’re considering this just keep in mind that it will only fade naturally, hot oil treatments will help but you can’t bleach henna colored out. I had mostly virgin full length hair and my ends had leftover blue black henna and no amount of bleaching would make it go away (I tried twice and toned after to keep my hair healthy)

    So, I never dyed my hair before.
    I'm 27, with medium length hair, dull dark brown.
    On a day off I decided to give this a shot. (New to hair care)....
    The product actually works. Keep in mind I did not wash my hair for 3 days prior, and left the henna in for 6 hours. The brick was good for 3 hair dyes/treatments. The whole month at work I received compliments that my hair looked shiny.
    I used the Coco Maron. It will definitely give your hair a natural red hue.
    If anyone is going to try this product reply down below. There is some things you should no first to extend the henna brick and get better results.

  • @blueeyedjem6340
    @blueeyedjem6340 4 года назад +1

    I’m kind of disappointed in my recent lush henna job. So I used to use Marron 2 years ago and I did it about 3 or 4 times until last year April I decided to stop dying my hair for a while. Then recently I wanted to Noir but I had my old henna still in my hair which made half of my head brown (my natural colour) and half red. So after watching this video she mentioned using Rouge first to get an even toned base for the darker colours..... I’m literally so upset with the outcome. I used Rouge 2 days ago and Noir yesterday and my hair is now DARK GINGER, the furthest thing from dark brown or blackish which is what I wanted. I did so much research on what’s the best way to achieve a deep dark colour but instead I’m now dark ginger and I have no idea what to do, and if I knew this would of happened I would of scarped the Rouge altogether but I hoped it would even out my hair colour. I used to love lush henna but now I don’t think I’ll ever be purchasing it again as the information in this video literally meant nothing regarding the results I saw. Instead of the rouge toning my hair it was so strong that underneath Noir it’s still ginger, not even red but like ORANGE. Can’t even describe how upset I am.

    Tip for everyone useing henna blocks. I use two chunks for my over the shoulder length hair (use more if it's your first time for even coverage) I chop the chunks into four each add boiling water and let sit for 5 mins then i uses an old electric hand mix to help mix my henna batter and break up the chunks quicker.

  • @janejones1935

    I've tried and tried using henna from Lush but found powder online for a fraction of the price much cheaper and not a massive pain.
    Lush I love you but it's a messy nightmare. I've found you need to grate it for easy mixing with hot water, which is long and 1000x more difficult than grating cheese.
    Once heated up and application time comes you must now battle with getting it onto your head, the consistency is like thin mud, then you need to keep it hot or it becomes mud flakes. The mud doesn't smooth on and flicks all over the bathroom... 3hrs minimum on your head. While this is happening you have henna dribbling down your neck and forehead from all the bits that have got warm, got runny and escaped your fashionable cling film wrapped alien head. So you can't 'do chores' etc while it's on your head as you need to be constantly monitoring the dribble situation.
    Meanwhile up top you now have crusty drying mud.
    So 3+hrs later rinse out time, best to put some sort of strainer over the plughole as the henna mud likes to block as I found out once the hard way.
    The hair does feel much much healthier afterwards but don't expect any dramatic colour change until the third go.
    After all the above the most frustrating thing I find is the leaflet that comes with it is absolutely useless.
    Pros, the store local to me sells for £10 a block which will dye my shoulder length hair 3 times.
    All in all there are better more traditional hennas available online or failing that I've now switched to Holland & Barret dyes as they are vegan and cruelty free.

      I always compare it to staining vs. Painting a piece of wood. Traditional hair dyes is like paint. Changing any color to any other color, covering the original color. Henna is like staining. It used the natural hair color as a base and stains it with natural loss and highs keeping the dimension. Unfortunately you cant go lighter with henna.

    • @LUSH
      @LUSH  5 лет назад +1

      Hi there, love! You can use henna over top of bleached hair. However, once you color your hair with henna, you won't be able to use chemical dyes or chemical processes on top! Brun uses a combination of both henna and indigo and since you would be coloring over blonde hair, the indigo may cause the hair to have a bit of a green-ish tinge. If you wanted to try using henna, we would recommend using a more red henna, like Rouge, first before following up with Brun and we always recommend doing a strand test before applying the full treatment. The results you achieve from henna can vary depending on your individual hair, so it's always best to do a strand test first. 😊

    And hairdressers hate henna. It never comes out of the hair. I used lush henna, and became a blonde a year later(6inches outgrowth from henna). The ends where the henna still was, pulled orange and took a lot of damage to break into yellow. Naturally without henna, my hair pulls to the yellow phase super fast.
    The henna also made my hair too oily and coated, by the time it didn't feel coated anymore the beautiful red orange I loved was faded.😥 I do not recommend henna even though it's natural.

I'm going back to henna. Really appreciated the tips about airation and layering the colour. Questions: 1) can you mix with conditioner to apply? I know it's made in coconut oil but I still find the henna dry when applying. 2) do metal bowls affect the colour? Thank you 😍
