Henna (Lawsonia inermis, syn. L. alba) is a flowering plant, the sole species in the genus Lawsonia in the family Lythraceae. It is native to tropical and subtropical regions of Africa, southern Asia and northern Australasia with an arid or at least seasonally dry climate.

It is a shrub growing to 6 m tall. The leaves are in opposite decussate pairs, oval, 2–4 cm long and 1.5–3 cm broad, with an entire margin and acute apex. The flowers are fragrant, produced in conical panicles 10–40 cm long, each flower 5 mm diameter, with four white petals. The fruit is a dry capsule 6–8 mm diameter, containing numerous 1–2.5 mm seeds.

Cultivation and uses
Henna is used as a temporary dye which wears off on its own. It is used greatly for hair coloring and temporary body art, as well as decorations on lamps and bags. It is mainly known as Mehndi or Mehandi in India and Pakistan. In North Africa and the Middle East it is typically called Henna. The dye is extracted from the dried leaf and petioles of the plant. The natural dye is traditionally found in India, Pakistan, Middle East, and Northern Africa. It can also be found in expatriate communities from these countries.

I have tried raw egg on my hair as a conditioner and I have used vinegar in water as a final rinse to make my hair shine more and I have used lemon juice on my hair to get streaks in the sun! But as my hair is red brown the lemon juice turned it ginger! Then as an 18 year old I decided to add a touch of peroxide! Disaster I think henna is a much safer bet!

Ahh I love to hear about other people's hair disasters because I have made so many myself! I once bleached my naturally blonde hair and then became scared and rinsed it off before it had finished lightening. Result? Bright orange hair! I also had a disasterous perm once and when I walked home from the hairdressers my mum could hear my loud sobs and cries 15 minutes before I reached home lol.

My friend uses henna on her hair, however her hair is very dark. You should not use it on blondes. I find the best product to use on blondes to keep the brassiness out, is Aveda Blue Malva. The shampoo is actually blueish purple, but it's great stuff. What do you think about the products that have hemp in them? Like shampoo, conditioner, tanning lotion etc..
