The "Does it REALLY Work?" Challenge

I've decided to restart my summer protective challenge, but with a little twist. I'm gonna try to see if rosemary oil really makes a difference in promoting hair growth. More information can be found here:

Recent henna

I left some henna on my hair overnight the other day, and here's the result! I'm pretty happy with it. I plan on doing this monthly over the summer.

Here's the mix I used:
About 100g henna
Apple cider vinegar
Water
Olive Oil
Honey
Instant coffee powder


I left this on for a very long time. Probably 10-12 hours! And then I washed it out thoroughly, and followed with a final chamomile tea rinse.

    Ok...I broke down and colored my hair with regular color because I was being impatient...man this henna color is exactly what I was going for. Lovely.

    Yeah, I wish henna was more noticeable indoors. It definitely doesn't look anything like this when I'm not inside. But I think that's what I like about it. I don't know if I could handle anything dramatic.
