  1. henna  is  good, soak  green hena  overnite in water, apply  next  day  , after  fortyfive mnutes   shampoo, it is  a  natural yellowish  colour  also  used  for  tattoos, but  for  tattoos  chemicals  are added  to  keep  it  longer


  2. you use a colour remover all over your hair, roots to ends for about 10 or so minutes, until its the colour you want. but be careful colour remover goes quick.

    i used to be a hairdresser so i think i know what im talking about.

  3. ya be careful of it turning grey when adding more colors....but maybe suggesting some dark brown highlights???

    do u know how to put videos in myspace extended network banners??

  4. You could try mixing a bit of lemon juice with some water, and spray it on your hair and sit in the sun for about half an hour - to a hour for a few days. It should lighter to a brown


  5. if you try to lighten it without dying over it, it will just look grey

    and henna is a kind of tattoo.....not hair dye...

  6. Henna will only make it go reddish. You cannt really lighten it without dyeing it. Unless you want it to go grey/white.
